About: Cello is a hand-crafted chocolate made in Nevada city, California. Their website reflects an appealing bean-to-bar passion. They sell a number of single source bars, all at 70%. No milky stuff here.
Flavor: Bourbon. You like bourbon? You'll like this bar. The flavor is a bit overwhelming to my taste, but I'm not a big fan of the bourbon. The chocolate itself is pleasant and rich, but you have to look for it under the bourbon flavor, which lasts from start to finish. Texture:Smooth enough, but not mindbogglingly so.
My rating: A 6 to 7 for flavor and smoothness and fresh flavor.
| 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. |
