This bar is delicate, and "sweet" if they can call it that. If you're a fan of the 100% chocolates, They insist you try this. It's a beautiful balance of nut, chocolate notes, and caramel. And if ever there were a "gateway" bar for the 100% this one just might be it. A 100% bar made from Polochic Guatemalan cacao beans. Light Roast, Long Conche. Their Limited Release bars represent the most interesting of their experiments. Sample them while you can.

Maker
FrescoFresco is a small craft chocolate maker in Lynden, Washington. The founder of Fresco, Rob Anderson, releases several combinations of roasting and conch profiles to create different variation bars from the same beans. Anderson, originally a computer scientist, took a trip to Washington and visited a chocolate shop and took a tour which initially sparked his chocolate interest. Since then, Anderson created his own machines to make small batches of test chocolate. While only using three ingredients for his bars; cacao beans, cane sugar and cacao butter, Fresco’s flavor range is uniquely diverse. He chose the name Fresco meaning fresh in Italian, which could translate into fresh taste, fresh ideas, or a fresh approach to chocolate making.

good , not very impressive though.
Allow this chocolate a little more time on the palate to reveal the full complexity of its flavor. The lovely floral notes of raspberry and currant will come out and the residual slightly acidic aftertaste pleasantly balances the richness. While not my top pick from the 100 percent cocoa bars, it is a unique and delicious option nonetheless.
Very interesting concept of this maker experiments with different roasting times and conching times. For me, the roasted flavor hit immediately which is not overly common, and stayed the entire time, despite being a light roast per the label. Was absolutely delicious. They've got my attention and I will be trying more from Fresco
Very mellow and smooth, love it!
Great texture and pleasantly bittersweet. Definitely let it melt in your mouth as recommended. Try it while it's available!
