Welcome to Day #4 of Chocolate and Ecuador Theme Week.

Texture: well-tempered, this bar broke with a hard snap in a cool room; and it had a uniform texture and melt.
Flavor notes included: relatively bold, earthy chocolate (loam, buttermilk), with light, balanced sour and bitter earth notes.
Maker's tasting notes: "Notes of rich cocoa, brioche bread, and elderflower"
Ingredients: "cacao nibs from Camino Verde in Ecuador*, cane sugar*, less than 1% cocoa butter*" (* = Organic)
