Dagoba 68% cacao Lemon Ginger bar









About: Dagoba Chocolate is marketed, like so many other brands, as a "guy makes chocolate and gets passionate about it and starts a business and ba-boom!" I'm wiping a joyful tear just now as I write about it, but it's a good story and one that makes me want to buy stuff from them. The fact that they sell cocoa powder  and feature recipes on their web site and generally seem like chocolate enthusiasts is a marketing plus. 


Flavor: Both the lemon and the ginger come through nicely, and the chocolate is nicely flavored and pleasant. This is a worth-while, nicely flavored bar. The chocolate flavor comes through with a nice profile - lemon, then ginger, then chocolate, with a long-lasting follow-through.


Texture: It's okay. I like creamy chocolates, and this is on the just-ever-so-slightly brittle side.Also, the pieces of something - perhaps the ginger - are a bit crunchy. That can count as good or as not so good.

My rating: 7.5  on the scale of 1-10, where 10 means 'mind shockingly good' and 1 means 'would not bother'.
