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

Today's 60% Uganda (Semuliki) bar was from Chocolate Spiel (Seattle, WA).

Aroma notes for this attractively "painted"* chocolate were relatively faint and included: smooth dark chocolate and very faint, diffuse fruit.

Texture: smooth and creamy, with a buttery melt.

Flavor: appealing sweet dark chocolate (chocolate-y), sweet, light, diffuse, slightly tart fruit. Relatively low in bitterness, and the natural fruit sweetness was well-balanced--gently tart without being too acidic.

Maker's tasting notes: "dates, fig and raisin"

Ingredients: cocoa, sugar, cocoa butter, colored cocoa butter

Allergen-related information: May contain traces of tree nuts, peanuts and gluten.

*Chocolate Spiel bars and confections are decorated with colored cocoa butter(s). Some painting designs are colorful spatter patterns, others have just a few colors and/or include lines/dribbles. All these miniature works of art have a playful feel to them. (Note: for some single origin bars, there is an "no color" option.)
