Costa Rica

I’ve only ever tried the Rainforest Alliance Certified Dark Chocolate from the Chocolate Truffle Co and absolutely loved it. Harrods do a Opulence Costa Rica Chocoalte Bar which looks interesting.

Thorntons Lemon & Sea Salt

This certainly isn’t the best milk chocolate they’ve produced, but I still enjoyed the sharp flavours. The lemon and sea salt did work well together and make the inherent chocolate flavour stand out more. I’d love to try a 50% version of this bar to see what the salt could do with the darker tones.

Potomac Chocolate Upala 70% Dark Chocolate

This bar of lighter chocolate from Potomac Chocolate certainly isn’t heavy on flavour, but it is mild, clean and very enjoyable. It’s certainly not as heavy on the pallet as the 82% version. I do suggest that if you get the chance to try some then you should give this bar a go and compare it to the darker one.

Fruition Dark Milk Chocolate with Fleur de Sel

April 8, 2012September 11, 2013 Lee McCoy 0 Comment

Although I typically do like dark milk chocolate, this wasn’t rustic enough. There weren’t enough rough edges and variation for me to class it as a remarkable bar of chocolate. It was, however, expertly made and undoubtedly it would be popular with people who like less bitter chocolate.

Fruition Chocolate 66% Dark Chocolate

There is something magnificent about micro-batch chocolate makers putting the effort in to create utterly delightful chocolate as this 66% bar. It may be a touch sweet, but I enjoyed it nonetheless.

Another example of beautiful chocolate made with cacao from Costa Rica, this one had a lovely variety of flavours through out the melt. If you’re near one of their stores and like chocolate with personality then try it.

This is most certainly a bar for chocolate lovers that prefer powerful, dark chocolate with a thick melt. I loved its powerfulness and character. Give it a go if you can.
