$1.69 a bar. Very affordable but as the name implies, only available at Trader Joe's- although I can be mistaken as I have not taken the time to research if this is available anywhere else other than the retail chain.Wrapped in thin silver foil is a plate of thin, shiny and almost black, cocoa plant-embossed dark chocolate. Sheen is almost reflective on the shiny smooth surface. Scent is mild, faint hint of roasted cocoa. Snaps to a clean break, unfortunately not on the perforations of the bar itself (as shown) but no splintering nonetheless. Mouth-feel is subtle and slow to melt. Delicate notes of an earthy, soft-bitterness. Mildly sweet and excellent for newbie black chocolate tasters. Clean finish and pleasant after-taste. Re-wrap with foil and slide back into its thin green rectangular envelope for future enjoyment.
This label comes in a variety of flavors from Trader Joe's. I recall spotting some black chocolate varieties mixed with hazelnuts and some milk chocolate variations as well.
