Welcome to Day #8 of Chocolate & Colombia Theme Week.
Today's Maple Goat 65% Cocoa (bar) was made by Choco Del Mar (Los Altos, CA).
Aroma and flavor notes for this goat milk chocolate included: chocolate-y dark milk chocolate (dark ganache; faint and fleeting sweet-tart fruit (raisin, berry); and tangy goat milk caramel sweetened with maple/brown sugar.
Texture: smooth texture, thick and creamy melt and rich mouthfeel.
I enjoyed the melding of sweet, dark milk chocolate with rich maple sugar cream caramel flavors. The slight tang helped add flavor depth and interest, and balanced out the sugar. And I appreciated the short list of quality ingredients.
Maker's description: "Tangy, Maple, Creamy" ..."...an initial burst of goat milk and rich cacao, followed by the warm, lingering sweetness of maple."
Ingredients: Cocoa Nibs, Maple Sugar, Cocoa Butter, Whole Powdered Goat Milk (Whole Goat Milk, Vitamin D3)
