About: This chocolate is made in Granada from chocolate grown in Granada by a partnership between local growers and LA Burdick, whose (excellent) chocolates I mentioned elsewhere in this blog. They make a handful of chocolates, mostly around 60% (tourists!), which they show nicely in an 'explain like I'm 5" fashion on their website.
Flavor: Well.. it's a full flavor experience here. It starts slow, explodes into a fruity, raisinish aroma and finishes with an earthy, full, deep flavor. Very nice. Texture: Just very slightly brittle, but overall smooth.
My rating: A 7 for great flavor and acceptable texture.
| Rating Value | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 1 | Really bad chocolate. There's something just really really wrong here in almost every imaginable respect. |
| 2 | A bar with this rating has at least two drawbacks. |
| 3 | A bar where something is starting to get seriously wrong.... for example, really weak flavor with an otherwise acceptable texture. |
| 4 | This bar is below average, but just slightly. Mostly it's not worth eating again. Something isn't quite up to par, for example a poor texture but fine flavor. |
| 5 | This is an average good bar that's worth eating. There's nothing really wrong with it, but also nothing particularly spectacular. Or, perhaps it has a good characteristic that's evenly counter-weighted by something weak. |
| 6 | A solidly good bar with one characteristic that's above par, for example a great texture. |
| 7 | An solidly good chocolate that has two above par characteristics, but nothing mind-blowing. Good, above average flavor, but nothing to die for. |
| 8 | An excellent bar with no weaknesses and at least one characteristic that's super. |
| 9 | An awesome bar to die for with amazing texture and flavor. |
| 10 | You have been touched by God. |
