Chocolate



I can’t recall where I read this ultimately lifeless narration of the most amazing product on  the planet.

“Dark Chocolate is included in the Healing Foods Pyramid as part of a balanced, whole foods, plant-based diet. This Food Pyramid emphasizes foods that nourish the body, sustain energy over time, contain healing qualities and essential nutrients, and support a sustainable environment...”
Isn’t it just scandalous and even barbaric use such wording to describe one of the most favored snacks in the world?

What about saying instead:

Experience the impeccable balance of bitter velvety chocolate and rich ingredients that produce sharp, crisp sound and clean edge when you broke it.

Now for the tasting...


Did you know that chocolate has over 400 distinct flavor compositions?

That’s even more than in fine wine.

The key to getting the most from your chocolate is to let it melt slowly on your tongue.
 As it disintegrates, it will start to release flavors.
Some chocolates have just a couple of identifiable flavor notes, but a well-made chocolate with great quality cocoa beans can take you on a real journey.

It might be fruity, floral, earthy or spicy, but the chances are the flavours you pick up will evolve as the chocolate melts. 
A good chocolate will also leave a lasting aftertaste in your mouth.
This “finish” can stay with you for several minutes after the chocolate has melted and is part of the reason you only need a small piece of chocolate to get the best possible experience.

The only thing left now is to start the luxurious journey to satisfaction.
