Nestle Extra Fine Dark Chocolate

I don’t have a great perception of Nestle. I think its because I only really taste their Easter eggs aimed at children – which aren’t the greatest in the world. But I was actually very surprised with their Extra Fine Dark Chocolate Bar.
There is one surprise, however. Its that it tastes much darker than the 52% minimum that I had to search the bar with a squint in my eye to find out. It’s a Frankenstein of a bar. It just doesn’t know what it wants to be. It tastes dark, wooden, musty and reminds me of a Spanish butchers – I know!!!
I found the bar in a Polish pound shop along with the Turrón Crujiente-Calidad Suprema Negro
and I can’t find it anywhere on the Internet, nor have I seen it in any shop so I think the chances of finding it anywhere are very slim. That might actually be a good thing.
The bar is sweet, which belies its “extra fine dark chocolate”. I wouldn’t try this bar again as if I wanted to buy some dark chocolate I’d try can buy much better ones online or if I’m out in town I could even try some Bournville.
Rating:
Taste: 55% – its ok but too sweet and wooden.
Texture: 70% – I couldn’t really fault it too much, just that the melt was a bit average.
Appearance: 55% – they didn’t try too hard!
Nutritional Information: 65% – its there, but too small.
Price: 80% – At £1 for two bars it was pretty good.
Overall: 65%
