| Tasting Experience | A "Nacional" unlike many others. This fine bar opens on a clear fruity, nearly sweet flavor. While melting the initial sensations is toward flowery and acidulate tones. All being slightly subdue with under notes of cherry and sunflowers. Not a "in your face" cacao sensation. The texture isn't creamy and might feel dry to some. The overall sensation is of a complex sweet and gentle cacao. A rare and excellent experience. |
