Welcome to Day #7 of Chocolate & Mint Theme Week.
Today's package of three "Merry Mint" - Fudgy Dark Chocolate & Peppermint Single Origin Ghana 70% Cacao (bars) was from TCHO Ventures Inc. (Berkeley, CA).
Aroma notes for the two (of three) individually-wrapped small bars I enjoyed included: dark chocolate (fudge); mint (peppermint) and very faint vanilla.
Texture for this dairy-free chocolate: smooth, buttery with a thick, satisfying melt and mouthfeel.
Flavor notes included: fudgy dark chocolate infused with relatively minty peppermint and faint vanilla.
I appreciated the use of single origin cacao (from Ghana) and the relatively short list of organic and quality ingredients.
I also enjoyed the festively pink/red and gold outer packaging for this winter holiday offering that was attractively merry and bright--as well as the three bars (making these great gifts or just easier to share a package with friends). Note: these Merry Mint bars may have been seasonal, as I could no longer see them online on the TCHO website.
