It is an intense chocolate with extraordinary strength but at the same time with a tantalizing delicacy, and with an acidity which imparts freshness, leaving the mouth completely clean and immediately wanting to try some more. It has a decisive flavor of toasted almonds which alternates with pressed olives. A unique experience, a flavor long and persistent. It is a type of cocoa which goes far beyond the idea of chocolate as the world market usually thinks of it.

Maker

Amedei Tuscany

Amedei Tuscany a gourmet Italian chocolate brand was founded by Cecilia Tessieri, the world's first female master chocolatier. From Tuscany, Italy, Tessieri started making confections in tiny 480 square foot space with just one employee, until she realized that not everything was made completely by her. Tessieri spent 24 years traveling around the world, working with chocolatiers in a male dominant field and visiting cacao plantations in search for the best chocolate. Tessieri created Amedei, named after her grandmother in 1990. Amedei uses only the best ingredients and Tessieri carefully overseeing each step the cacao beans go through to ensure fine quality chocolate. Only 1% of the beans harvested are deemed worthy to create Amedei’s chocolate. Amedei evolved as one of the world’s premier luxury chocolate makers and is a six time winner of the Academy of Chocolate’s “Golden Bean” award (equivalent to the Academy Award for chocolatiers, according to Tessieri.

Cacao Strain

Porcelana

Porcelana; the name is Spanish for “porcelain,” a reference to the stark white color of the seeds borne in their small, pale green pods. Porcelana is one of the cultivars of the the Criollo group. Porcelana is perhaps one of the best-known ultra-rare cacao varietals, only grown in a small region of Venezuela and Colombia. It’s become one of the most prized and expensive cacaos in the world thanks to its near complete lack of bitterness and delicate chocolaty flavor.

This is Okay.

This chocolate has a chalky texture when it melts in your mouth which really makes it taste cheap. It also has an underlying plasticky flavor (wondering if it's the package). Overrated and overpriced to me.

Great gift!

Got this bar for my brother for Christmas. Shipping was extremely fast! He said it was the best dark chocolate he’d ever had. Beautiful packaging.

Nice but not as exceptional or unique as the price might suggest

We bought this as a "splurge" figuring any bar priced double that of most B&C offering would be WOW. In fact, this did not seem superior to the other bars we have purchased for $8-12.
