Welcome to Day #4 of Chocolate & Earth, Mountains, Forests & Gardens Theme Week.
Today's Karu Chocolates Sierra Milk - Dark Milk Single Region Sierra Nevada, Colombia 60% Cacao (bar) was made in Bogota, Colombia, and distributed (in the U.S.) by Tropicalia LLC.
Aroma and flavor notes included: slightly earthy dark milk chocolate (ganache, brownie) with faint and diffuse fruits (sweet, crisp red apple, mango, sweet red berry), and a pleasant dark milk chocolate-y finish.
After enjoying a 100% cacao bar yesterday, today's 60% cacao chocolate seemed very sweet. But I appreciated the relatively subtle, complex flavors. The earth note(s) certainly fit with this week's (Chocolate, Earth, Mountains, Forests & Gardens) theme.
Last, but not least, this bar was made with a short list of (just three) ingredients "in country" (in the same country where the cacao was grown).
Ingredients: Cacao, cane sugar, milk powder
Allergen-related information: Contains Milk. "Produced in facilities processing milk and nuts"
