Delicata PUUR Chocolade 85% Cacao



























About: This is the Albert Hijn supermarket upscale brand. I like the packaging and even more the thin bar. Nothing is more annoying than having dark chocolate that's too thick and which forces you to strain to get a small piece. Well, almost nothing. There are gnats.


Flavor: Well... it's dark and not very sweet. And the flavor is full. But to my taste, the flavor is not as smooth as it could be. There is a sour bitterness that I associate with darkly roasting the beans, but maybe it's just the bean variety. At the end, you're left with a sour mouth and not with that satisfied feeling of having just eaten something exquisite.


Texture: Perfectly reasonable, but nothing to cream about. It's smooth, and there's not chalkiness or harsh brittle waxiness. 

My rating: Tricky. I think people that like a dark roast might like this better than I did, but I only found room in my heart and palate for a 7.5.  

Here,  10 means 'mind shockingly good' and 1 means 'would not bother'.
