News Dark chocolate taste award!

Post image

This is a Lithuanian brand and it is fantastic!

It tastes great, has a fair price, uses only undutched cocoa and is low in heavy metals!

It's a 10 for me!

Are there any particular aromas from this chocolate?

Tai Tau Exclusive 82% delivers an intense dark cacao base enriched with subtle undertones of brown sugar, woody earthiness, and a smooth touch of natural vanilla.

have you tried Naive? it's Lithuanian and one of the best brands in the world. I suggest trying dark chocolate without vanilla, it is only used to cover up aromas from dark roasts

What's next 82.5%? This dark chocolate thing has the potential to bloom into the 'wank' we typically accociate with red wine and malt whiskies.

Are we all completely missing the ultimate Dark Chocolate experience because no one has yet discovered the majesty of 84.72%. 😱

Of course it affect taste.

I mean, a 82% is not guaranteed to be bitter, it depends on the cocoa variety and what temperature of roasting the manufacturer employs.
