Welcome to Day #16 of Chocolate and Water Theme Week. Today's water connection was with the sea--more specifically with the Port of Salem.
Today's tall ship-themed, medallion-shaped Barque* Sarah chocolate was part of a Nautical Chocolate Gift Box assortment from Harbor Sweets (Salem, MA), that included shells and periwinkles and "sloops" as well.
Aroma notes for today's Barque Sarah included: milk chocolate with faint vanilla tobacco and very faint nut.
Texture: smooth, uniform, relatively soft milk chocolate punched up by crunchy whole almonds
Flavor: very sweet milk chocolate and whole, authentically nutty almonds.
I liked the elegant-looking, three-masted tall ship on this medallion shaped chocolate; and the whole, roasted almonds that helped moderate the very sweet milk chocolate.
Ingredients: "milk chocolate (sugar, milk, cocoa butter, chocolate liquor, soy lecithin, vanilla), and dry roasted almonds"
Allergen-related information: Contains "milk, soy, and almonds"
*A barque, or bark, is a three-masted (or more) tall ship. The Barque Sarah chocolate was created by Harbor Sweets to commemorate the Port of Salem's seafaring history.
