Good 100% Bar

Pleasantly bitter with a hint of spice. A good size for the price as well. Not the best 100% bar available in my opinion (prefer a fruitier taste), but I would consider buying it again.

Aromatic dark chocolate

It’s really aromatic in smell, elegant flowery aroma. The taste is dense with a note of spiciness and acidity. No noticeable sweetness and has a pulverized texture.
