Chocolate: Endangered Species Dark Chocolate with Cinnamon, Cayenne & Cherries
Endangered Species Dark Chocolate with Cinnamon, Cayenne & Cherries
Where bought: Foods For Living
Aroma: Ahhhhh.
Texture: Solid, chomps well.
Taste: Cayenne bites the tongue before anything else even registers. And keeps on biting. A little zing in chocolate can be fun, but this is napalm. It's overwhelming every other flavor -- I think the cherries are trying to fight through, but they're not making it -- and my mouth is still burning ten minutes later.
Overall: Actively unpleasant. Would *not* buy again, and may not finish bar.
ETA: I tried another piece a few days later, hoping the flavor balance would have improved with time; if anything, the cayenne's even worse. Tossing the remainder.
