About: Created on "vintage European Equipment" sounds better than "made on old stuff we bought on Ebay." It's not as if good Californian wine needed vintage casks to dominate the world wine market. But that's okay. Mr. Scharffenberger and Mr. Steinberg have created a great artisan chocolate product, bought in 2005 by the Hershey company, which has made as successful chocolate company out of selling crappy chocolate. In the last years it doesn't seem like Scharffen Berger got worse, so... whew.
Flavor: This is a richly flavored chocolate. No real fruity tones here - solid chocolate through and through.
Texture: Most 80-plus percent chocolate is crunchy and waxy in texture, but not this. it's a bit firm at room temperature, but still creamy and smooth.
My rating: 9, on the scale of 1-10, where 10 means 'mind shockingly good' and 1 means 'would not bother'. I like.
