Bienvenidas a (welcome to) Day #5 of Chocolate & Mexico Theme Week.
Today's Las Abuelas (the grandmothers) rich chocolate with hints of raisin 78% Cacao & Pasilla Negra Chile (bar) was from Carolina's Chocolate (Mesa, AZ).
Carolina pays tribute to her two grandmothers with this chocolate and others she makes.
Aroma and flavor notes for today's bar included: smooth textured and smooth tasting dark chocolate, slightly savory chilies and subtle warm spice (vanilla).
I enjoyed the authentic, balanced chili and cacao flavors. It reminded me of rustic, stoneground chocolate with chilies and spices that you might find in Mexico -- only more finely ground into a very smooth dark chocolate bar form.
Ingredients: Cacao, Pure Cane Sugar, Cocoa Butter, Sunflower Lecithin, Vanilla, Pasilla Negra and Ancho Chili.
Allergen-related information: Produced in a facility that processes tree nuts.
