Welcome to Day #8 of Chocolate & Coffee Theme Week; and Day #1 of Chocolate & Jamaica Theme Week. This is the second coffee bar featured today. (See previous entry.) Both bars were notable for their subtle, nuanced coffee notes.

Today's Blue Mountain Coffee Jamaica, West Indies 68% Cocoa (bar) was from Likkle More Chocolate (Kingston, Jamaica, West Indies).

Aroma and flavor notes for this single origin bar included: relatively bold dark chocolate with rich (but not overpowering) coffee; subtly sweet, with balanced acidity, earth.

Texture: well-tempered; broke with a snap; smooth melt

I appreciated the relatively bold, balanced dark chocolate and the deep forest-y Blue Mountain coffee notes. It was bolder and darker than most 68% cacao dark chocolates, but not too bitter or acidic. 

Once last thought: I suggest leaving this bar open to "breathe" for about 15-20 minutes after opening the inner packaging and before tasting. You'll get a slightly smoother, more even flavor.

Ingredients: "Cocoa nibs, cane sugar, cocoa butter, ground Jamaican Blue Mountain coffee. All-natural colors derived from plants, fruits & vegetables."

Allergen-related information: "Made in a kitchen that handles milk, seeds & nuts."

Welcome to Day #8 of Chocolate & Coffee Theme Week.

Today's Endorfin Foods Turkish Coffee 60% Cacao with coconut (bar) was manufactured by Coracao Confections (Richmond, CA).

Aroma notes included: smooth dark chocolate (slightly fudge-y); brown sugar; faint dried fruit (date, jujube, red fruit) and coconut cookie; and very faint cardamom coffee.

Texture: relatively smooth texture with a pleasant melt

Flavor notes included: smooth "milk" chocolate with complex and subtle dried fruits; mild brown/coconut sugar and "caramelized" coconut butter; and very faint, gently spiced coffee.

I enjoyed the subtle flavors in this bar; the short list of organic and fair trade ingredients; the lack of gluten and refined sugars; and the lightness of the coffee--that allowed the chocolate-y notes shine.

Note: This bar was similar (but not identical) to a similar bar from Endorfin Foods 10 years ago (so likely a different harvest/batch of cacao as well). But, just in case, I'm featuring a second coffee chocolate bar today (see next entry) from Jamaica.
