Panama 80% - Dark Chocolate Single Origin Panama
This pleasingly high-percentage chocolate is full bodied yet mild, decadent and incredibly smooth with hints of nuts and an extraordinary chocolate flavour, ideal for the chocolate purist. We challenge you to find a smoother, less bitter, 80% chocolate bar.
The Great Taste Awards judges said:
Good dark bar with a great snap that melts beautifully to deliver really complex flavours. The natural hint of bitterness is complemented with fruity, tobacco and even coffee overtones that slowly work their way around the mouth in a most pleasing and delicious fashion. The finish is long, lingering and equally complex. A grown-up bar of chocolate to be enjoyed late in the evening along with something equally complex, strong and soothing in a glass.
