L'Amourette Chcolatier 72% Cacao with Pomelo Peel





This is a pleasant chocolate experience. I recommend letting the chocolate melt in your mouth for a few seconds until the aroma fills your sinuses, then biting into the remaining piece to experience the aroma of the pomelo mixing into the chocolate flavor.

The pomelo peel in this chocolate is, as pomelo peel is, satisfyingly bitter, but it's crystalized and thus grainy. If you like to let the chocolate melt on your tongue, you'll be left with a residue of sugared peel. The chocolate itself is full flavored but not completely smooth. It has a fine grainy texture, which I thought was bit disappointing. One good thing: it's not a very sweet bar, so the fine chocolate flavor isn't overwhelmed by sugar.

On the scale of 1-10, scores above 5 meaning 'would get again' and below 5 meaning 'don't bother with this again', I'd give this a high 7.
