64% Dark Chocolate

Valrhona Ampamakia 2010 64%

If you like rich, creamy, low level fruity then this is the bitter-sweet bar of chocolate as it comes from a fine pedigree and great source of beans. Despite having a fairly low cocoa solids level it still manages to convey some interesting flavours.

Valrhona Taïnori 64%

Unremarkable in terms of flavour, but still manages to offer a pleasant flavour. The thing is, not every bar in the Valrhona portfolio and offer extreme bursts of flavour and excitement.

Michel Cluizel Maralumi 64%

Michel Cluizel seem to always make fantastic chocolate, but we can't expect every bar to be an example of perfection. This bar is just too sweet for my liking and seems to be significantly more so than any of their bars which have a slighly higher concentration of cocoa.

Nestlé Gold Éclats de Cacao 64%

I shouldn't really bother reading the review, it wasn't very nice, and there are many, far nicer bars out there to try - even with cocoa nibs in them.

Jean-Paul Hévin 64% Papua New Guinea

If you're looking for a slightly sweet dark chocolate bar with cherry tones then look no further than the Jean-Paul Hévin 64% Dark Chocolate Bar From Papua New Guinea.

Paul A. Young Chateau Civrac 2006 Ganache Grapes

These Paul A. Young Chaeau Civrac 2006 Ganache Grapes are utterly fantastic. I don't have a price, but at least visit his shops to have a look.

Patrick Roger Tablette Océan Indien 64%

I just loved this Patrick Roger Tablette Océan Indien 64%. It had a wonderful fruitiness to it.

Demarquette Mexico 64% Dark Chocolate Bar

This Demarquette Mexico 64% Dark Chocolate Bar tasted fantastic, just a shame that it was poorly presented!

Patrick Roger 64% Dark Chocolate From Mexico

This isn't the best bar of chocolate that I've reviewed so far. It's not bad, just not brilliant.

Paul A. Young Marmite XO Dark Chocolate Bar

This Paul A. Young Marmite Dark Chocolate XO Bar isn't for the faint hearted - its a powerful, strange bar of chocolate.

Valrhona 64% Dark Chocolate Plantation Palmira

Valrhona has a very good name when it comes to chocolate, but some have started to wonder if the lustre of the brand has started to dim - I'm not sure sure after reviewing this bar.

Harvey Nichols Lime & Coconut Dark Chocolate Bar

Fairly expensive but the Harvey Nichols Lime & Coconut Dark Chocolate Bar was certainly an experience worth having.

Valrhona Gran Couva Dark Chocolate

Oooh! This is a wonderfully sweet dark chocolate that ticks so many boxes and will leave you wanting more. 64% cocoa generally is at the bottom of my range for luxury chocolate, I don’t typically go for anything much less than that, but I feel one the greatest sins in chocolate is not to try any...

Rainforest Alliance Certified Dark Chocolate

This Rainforest Alliance Certified Dark Chocolate bar I got from The Chocolate Truffle Co. was absolutely fantastic, full of flavour and great for late night nibbling.
