Recchiuti Dark Milk chocolate

Maker: Recchiuti Confections
Percentage: 55%
Origins: Venezuela & Unknown (cacao sourced from Guittard and Valrhona)

Description (from the packaging): In this dark, velvety bar, Michael Recchiuti uses milk as a medium to discover new flavor profiles in chocolate.  This alchemy of ingredients brings forward a creamy texture and a smooth, mild cherry finish from the cacao.

MY REVIEW

Rating: 6/10

Mouthfeel: Creamy

Flavor notes: Frosting, malt, tamarind, caramelized sugar, condensed milk

Details: A semisweet milk chocolate bar.  The first bite brings a potent wave of sweet, smooth malted dairy.  Once my mouth acclimates to the sugar, I notice threads of exotic fruit and subtler candy flavors.  Among semisweet chocolate bars, this is an exquisite choice.
