Bonjour and welcome to Day #5 of Chocolate and Salt Theme Week.
Today's Chocolat Noir Eclats de Caramel & Sel miroir de Bolivie (small bar) was made in Belgium by Dolfin Chocolaterie (Baulers Nivelles, Belgium).
Salts from France (Guerande) and Bolivia were included in today's bar. The latter miroir salt (also known as mirror salt) was from Salar de Uyani--a large, high altitude, salt plain that (when it rains and leaves a thin layer of water on the salt) can have almost other-worldly reflective, mirror-like properties.
Aroma and flavor notes included: dark chocolate (dark fudge), butter, caramel, vanilla flavoring, and balanced salt.
Texture: smooth, creamy texture--with very tiny crystal-like crunchy bits.
I liked the chocolate-y flavor, light caramel and touch of salt. The 60% dark chocolate was well managed (robust but not too dark, and had no "off" notes).
Ingredients: Cocoa paste, sugar, caramel 4% (sugar, glucose syrup, whole milk powder, fresh cream (milk), salted butter (milk), Guerande salt, rapeseed lecithin), cocoa butter, emulsifier: soy lecithin... ???? from Bolivia 0.2%, natural vanilla flavoring. Cocoa solids, Miroir salt from Bolvia
Allergen-related information: Contained milk and soy. "May contain tree nuts, eggs, wheat and sesame.
