Ruined by heat August 23, 2010 D. Pitcher (Bermuda) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I was keen to know what this chocolate tastes like though unfortunately when it arrived it was clear it had melted sometime during shipping which changed the structure and turned a bunch of it back into cocoa powder. I'm rather disappointed that it barely tastes edible and as a fan of really dark chocolate I'm doubtful that's how they're supposed to taste.
By contrast I ordered the Ghirardelli Chocolate Intense Dark Chocolate Bars, 86% Cacao Midnight Reverie, 3.17 oz. and was rather confused by the higher shipping costs. I figured out why when they arrived. They'd been shipped with special freezer packs and bubble wrapped. The freezer packs kept the chocolate from melting and they arrived in perfect condition.
Great chocolate, melted delivery July 31, 2010 ellen_angel12 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I love this chocolate, and have bought it local stores. However, when it arrived on my doorstep, it was a giant melted mess. I have ordered chocolate from several companies, and all of them refrigerated the chocolate in some way for delivery. Buy it in the store.
Like a Glass of Wine June 19, 2010 A. Davidson Just wanted to add my vote for this as the best extreme dark chocolate I've tried. It really isn't for those who are expecting sweet dark chocolate. Like those who posted 1-star reviews of "Yuk!", I made the mistake the first time of snapping off a row and chomping down on a piece... what a shock to the tastebuds! But there was -something- there, so I didn't throw it out. I simply nibbled on the rest of it, and what a difference! It was suddenly just sweet enough, with an intense, very satisfying chocolate flavor. The "extreme" in the bar's name isn't there for exaggeration! So if you want something more like a nice glass of wine to be savored slowly rather than a glass of grape juice to be chugged, give this bar a try.
Good for baking, not straight up May 21, 2010 Stomper (Las Vegas, NV) 0 out of 3 found this review helpful
After reading the reviews, I expected something different. Something.... Tasty. I like dark chocolate A LOT, but this tastes exactly like unsweetened baking chocolate. So, if you have ever tasted baking chocolate and thought, "hey, thats good." Or "Hey, I can taste notes of tulips and roses and hints of caramel and berries.", then you will like this. Otherwise, save your money and buy something with a little more sugar. I have had 60% and thought it tasted great. Apparently, 88% is just too much concentration for me.
When I tasted it, I gagged a little bit and made the famous sour lemon face, and my daughter started laughing. She thought I was joking in order to hog the rest to myself. So, I did what any good dad would do. I offered the rest to her. But, I grabbed the trash can just as she took a bite, because I knew what was about to happen. She has a much lower tolerance to bitter taste than I do (she is only 7). The black lump came flying out her mouth just as fast as it went in.
I dont know why there are so many good reviews for this. Some people out there must really love to punish their tastebuds. Maybe they also like black licorice and black coffee? Now, what do I do with the remaining 11.75 bars of chocolate? :(
Update: I found a use for my leftover chocolate. I chopped one bar up and used it to replace half of the chocolate chips called for in a recipe. The resulting cookie was very good, so now I am happy I have this chocolate.
