Welcome to Day #18 of Chocolate & Flowers Theme Week and Day #4 of Chocolate & Tea Theme Week.

Today's 55% Cacao Jasmine Tea Milk Chocolate (bar) was from Lonohana Chocolate (Honolulu, Oahu, HI).

Lonohana bars and confections are produced at the company's chocolate factory in Honolulu "using cacao that is 100% Hawaii-grown."

Aroma notes included: sweet, dark milk chocolate with dried fruit (ripe, white grape), very faint floral, and faint nut. (Note: there were no nut ingredients listed.) When I re-tasted this chocolate later, I also tasted light caramel and faint tea notes.

Texture: creamy, rich milk chocolate

I liked the creamy texture; subtle, balanced complexity; short list of quality and organic ingredients; and the single origin Hawaii chocolate. A bit on the sweet side, this bar will please those with a sweet tooth who enjoy some authentic cacao flavor but without any rough edges.

Ingredients: Hawaii-grown cacao, organic cane sugar, organic cocoa butter infused with organic jasmine tea & organic whole milk powder. 

Allergen-related information: Contains Milk. Soy and Gluten Free. "Made on equipment that also processes milk and tree nuts. Produced in a facility that handles coconut, eggs, macadamia, peanuts, sesame, soy & wheat."
