Chocolate Bar | Components. | Score. | Judgment. |
Noir au Thé Earl Grey. | 52% dark chocolate, Earl Grey tea, vanilla. | 9/10. | A drop-dead gorgeous chocolate. The taste stops me in my tracks.
Details for obtaining Total ~ 9/10. Smell = 2: spices; intriguing light perfume of bergamot informs the chocolate. Sound = 1; a snap, but a little muffled. Sight = 2; Dark with clear broken edges, with hint of texture (ground nibs?) to come. The wrapper is to be the MOST SENSIBLE AND ELEGANT ever experienced, a resealable pouch that obliterates the usual pantomime of actually getting at the chocolate unhindered. Touch = 2; Nice sensual surface; melts at appropriate speed in mouth. Taste = 2; Bergamot fills the back and sides of the mouth. Chocolate melts slowly. |
