I need to put the review of this chocolate in its context. I first tasted this chocolate 1) after a bad memory of the price (we hadn’t looked at the price before buying it… $8 for 30g) and 2) while talking to some Ecuadorian friends about the chocolate delights of their country. My first impression was quite bad. Above all, I felt an earthy and bitter taste that remained in my mouth. A disappointment that also fueled the speech we had…
Pepper and cocoa blend in a unique way: they are so close that they combine as one new flavor. That’s the first impression when tasting this chocolate: it’s smooth, unique, and tasty. And suddenly, you come across a piece of passion fruit. A sweet, acidic surprise that takes up all the space but only for a few moments. Then, gentle return to the unctuousness of the peppered chocolate.
A unique chocolate for its threefold marriage, with the good intuition to include the passion fruit in the form of small touches. Another masterpiece not to be missed.
