Pralus Venezuela, 75% dark chocolate bar

The Venezuela, single origin chocolate bar from Pralus holds two distinct and opposing flavours. A thin, acidulous top edge above prominent smoky, earthy lower notes.

Surprisingly robust for a chocolate created exclusively from fine flavour, Trinitario cocoa from Venezuela. A contrasting chocolate experience and perhaps the most complex of the Pralus single origin bars.

Worth a try

Not as fruity as some of the other venezuela chocolate bars so quite a surprise to me although I was expecting it to be different which was why I added it to my order. The smokey aspect was a little too smokey for me on tasting and so I found I prefer the cleaner, fresher flavours more often found in chocolate made from venezuelan cocoa.

I have to say though, aside from my obvious personal taste, its amazing how you can get so many contrasting flavours from a bar of dark chocolate - perhaps this was the aim of Pralus and if so they achieved a very interesting chocolate for others to experience. Hence my rating.

Yes it is sweet and it does taste of grilled butter (not sure I could taste the liquorice). Lots of flavour and liveliness but perhaps a bit too sweet for me to order again!
