Inside the heat-reflective (though I wouldn’t leave it in your car on a hot day) padded envelope is a handsomely wrapped and bound parcel. The chocolate was still cool when we received it!

A handy sheet describes the history and philosophy of this month’s featured chocolatier.

The four selections are all dark enough (80%) to get a sense of the bean’s true character.  I was surprised to be able to detect so many flavor notes in a chocolate bar.  The Dominican Republic bar had a pronounced sweet cherry flavor (almost as if dried cherry were in the bar), and the citrus really sang with the finish.  The Ecuador was a balance bar with a unique banana essence.  Belize was a little more bitter than the others, with the honey and fruity vanilla playing lightly atop.  The Madagascar was all dark fruit and sweet citrus, a real treat.

24 little squares in each block — perfect for sharing… or not.  Texture of the bars stops short of gritty, but is more coarse than most mainstream offerings, almost like a superfood chocolate bar.  This month’s selections were chosen for their nuanced and deep flavor notes, so don’t come in expecting a milky, smooth mouth feel like a syrupy milk chocolate. You will definitely get a flavor experience with this subscription and plenty of theobromine!
