Packaging
The 100g chocolate bar is wrapped in a transparent plastic sleeve.
Look
The chocolate is very dark brown with a noticeable red hue that is particularly noticeable at the edges.
Sound
The chocolate breaks with a clear 'snap' sound.
Smell
The smells of sugar, vanilla, cocoa and roasted nuts.
Mouthfeel
The chocolate melts quickly and smoothly into a very fine liquid.
Taste
The chocolate flavour is initially dominated by sweetness. The chocolate quickly releases cocoa flavours with notes of coffee and roasted nuts. The sweetness is balanced but it tends to overwhelm the more exciting cocoa flavours after a while.
Aftertaste
The aftertastes are cocoa with a mild bitterness and sweetness.
Summary
This chocolate has an intense cocoa flavour with roasted nuts and coffee flavours. It is also sweetened and melts smoothly.
Verdict
The chocolate melts very evenly into a very fine chocolate while maintaining an even surface. However, its sweetness tends to overwhelm the nicely warming coffee and roasted nuts flavours of the cocoa. 4 Stars.
