About: Founded in San Francisco in 1868 by Etienne Guittard, a Frenchman who found that gold rushers were willing to pay a premium for chocolates, the company has kept his name and family owned status, awww, (in spite of the possible association with challenges guitar players). They seems serious about chocolate, offering a range of chocolates for eating, baking, and rubbing on your body salaciously. Their website has a lot of information about chocolate, pleasantly presented. I liked it.
Flavor: Smokey, sour, with a somewhat astrigent after-taste with hints of coffee. Overall, though, it's not as if your senses will be bowled over. It's really okay. It's definitely not sweet.
Texture: Smooth.
Rating: I like that it's not overly sweet - how can it be at91% cacao. But the flavor is a bit on the bland side - so it gets an 8.
Here, the scale of 1-10 means: scores above 5 meaning 'would get again' and below 5
meaning 'don't bother with this again''.
