Initial Impressions:
This bar is lighter in color and redder than base bar. The snap is firm but softer than base bar. The bar itself appears so smooth that it is almost like a plastic toy. There is a faint blueberry aroma and the bite is firm.
Flavor Profile:
Initial – blueberry
Middle – acidic, balsamic vinegar
After – light, mild malted milk
Texture:
The texture of this bar is silky smooth, it melts easily upon our tongues and is gone almost too soon.

Overall:
This bar is sweeter than we normally like, but that is probably due to the fact that we typically taste darker bars. Gaby was quite tickled that her taste for dark chocolate has come so far in the past few years. The complex flavor profile surprised and delighted both of us, it was not what we expected at all from this bar. We found it interesting that the ending is so mild and light.

For now savor: "If I had to eat one kind of chocolate for the rest of my life, it would be this. The natural acidity and citrus notes have always drawn me to dark Madagascar chocolates. I find this chocolate so perfectly balanced and bold that it stands alone. Enjoy." - Kate Weiser
