About: L'Amourette is a chocolate manufacturer in San Francisco that makes a line of seriously dark and flavored chocolates, including bean-to-bar chocolates and chocolates (like this one) that include other flavorings (vanilla here) and separate cocoa butter. The passion for chocolate is underscored by the fact that there isn't any milk chocolate in sight. It's all 72% or above, w00t!
Flavor: At 91%, this is not a sweet bar. The flavor takes a while to come on (as is often the case) but lasts nicely. The vanilla is subtle, but there isn't much in the way of fruity tones.
Texture: Good and smooth.
My rating: A very good bar with a solid 7. Flavor is good, but not exceptional. Texture is good, but not exceptional.
| 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. |
