Welcome to Day #20 of Chocolate & Mexico Theme Week(s).
Today's Chocolatl Chocolate con Leche Milk Chocolate (bar) was made in Mexico and distributed by Chocolatl (Magdalena Apasco, Oaxaca, Mexico).
Aroma and flavor notes included: dark milk chocolate (balanced, sweet, chocolate-y, pleasant hot cocoa)
Texture: well-tempered (broke with a snap in a cool room), smooth, slightly creamy, with an even, melt.
Nothing scary in this bar; it was low in bitterness, acidity and astringency. And there seemed to be a natural sweetness to the cacao as well.
I appreciated the short list of just four ingredients, and the ingredients from Oaxaca, Mexico.
Ingredients: Cacao, Cacao Butter, Sugar, Milk.
Allergen-related information: Contains Milk. Manufactured in a Facility That Also Processes Milk and Almonds.
