This chocolate bar has a thin layer of paste inside so it's not chocolate all the way through. Only buy if you enjoy black licorice. My family does and we couldn't put it down.
This chocolate bar is a new favorite. I've never heard of Gorse flower before so this bar was a delicious surprise. Sweet, gentle flavors. No tannic after taste.
Wasn't sure what to expect, but I was pleasantly surprised...coating was very strawberry and the malted milk tasted like genuine malt; not the super-sugary, commercial kind. I liked it!
These are just absolutely yummy. There's a few ways to enjoy them, too, whether sticking the whole thing in your mouth and enjoying all the flavors and textures at once, or biting off the top or stem and savoring them individually. So good.
Smell is interesting! I don’t have words for it. My closest non-words are “wheaty,” “yellow-green,” “fields,” “late spring,” and “Illinois,” but those are really inadequate. It evokes pleasant things without itself being pleasant? First melt: Has a dry, cutting sort of property, a little dusky in the back of my throat. I’ve tasted this sort of thing before, though I’m not precisely sure where. Sort of round and smooth as it gets going, like a polished marble sphere. At least a little reminiscent of the cask-aged To’ak … has a similar ghostly wet quality. Very soft and pliable on the chew, hardly cracks at all. I feel like I am not learning what whiskey is like. If this chocolate were a dog it would be a big golden farm dog, a year or two past its prime but not yet an “old” dog. Reliable, quiet, hardworking, a little bit slow. World-wise and weary, but not without joy. I definitely like this and want more. It mmmmmaaaaybe goes on The List (of my favorite chocolates), tho we’ll have to see if something else in the lineup beats it.
