Amedei challenges its philosophy and wisdom by creating a 95% dark chocolate with a strong and sweet taste. The absolute innovation of this product is the substitution of cane sugar with maple sugar, a precious ingredient with a sweetly refined taste obtained from the sap extracted from the Canadian maple plant.

Maker
Amedei TuscanyAmedei 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.

The maple sugar makes all the difference in this bar. It lends the 95% cacao an excellent note of sweetness. Italian chocolate at its best.
It’s amazing what a tiny amount of sugar can do to bring out the flavors of chocolate. I really like this bar. A piece in the afternoon, a piece in the evening—it always satisfies my chocolate urge. I don’t detect licorice, but I definitely taste hints of spices. When I’m tempted by cookies or other sweets, I savor a piece (or two!) of this with a cup of tea, and I’m satisfied.
Smooth and balanced, and you would never guess it packs a whopping 95%. For those who want the benefits of ultra dark but also want to eat chocolate like it's a sweet treat.
I absolutely agree with Amedei chocolates, get them, eat them, think about them. This one was a gem, so deep and rich and maple sugar. I loved the wrapper which is made from recycled cocoa bean shells, it is so unusual to the touch, similar, yet different from linen.
Not too bitter, not too sweet, the chocolate flavors come through, very smooth. Surprisingly 95%. It's superb.
