Welcome to Day #8 of Chocolate and Hawaii Theme Week.

Today's individually-wrapped Dark Mango and Dark Milk Mango squares were from Maui Ku'ia Estate Chocolate (Lahaina, Maui, HI).

Dark Chocolate Mango square

Aroma notes for the smooth-textured, Dark Chocolate 65% cacao square included: sweet, smooth dark chocolate, light cream and faint fruit.

Flavor notes included: sweet, smooth dark chocolate, bright tropical fruit (mango flavoring) with a slight bitterness in the finish. (I'm not sure if the bitterness was caused by the mango "natural flavors" added or whether it was from the cacao. It's not been present with other flavors tried so far in this assortment box.)

Dark Milk Mango square

Aroma and flavor notes included for the 60% Dark Milk Chocolate included: smooth, creamy milk chocolate, tropical fruit (mango) flavoring. The slight bitterness in the finish that was present in the 65% dark version was slightly muted by the milk in this square.

Ingredients: Cacao Beans, Sugar, Cocoa Butter, Natural Flavors. (The Dark Milk square also contained Milk.)

Allergen-related information: The Dark Milk square contained Milk. "Soy, nut and gluten free"
