Baron Delica Dore Fine Dark Chocolate 80%

 
 























About: A Polish chocolate brand that seems to focus on North and South American distribution. They make a range of bars, truffles and even chocolate gummies. Eeek! for the idea, but thumbs up for being so chocolate-focused that they'd bother to do that.

Flavor: Like other high cocoa-content bars, the flavor comes on slowly, but with a long profile that's dark and earthy. It's not freshly fruity, and it's ever so slightly bitter, but a nice balance of sweetness, and a satisfying after taste.

Texture:Slightly chalky, but with a smooth finish

My rating:  A nice 7ish, for flavor and texture that's really okay, and especially for a balance of sweet and chocolate that's optimal.



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.
