I think this is the best chocolate I have tried so far. It feels darker than 66% to me as it has so much depth and a long dark finish to it, I also detect the fruit element which gives it a slightly tart edge, which I enjoy as it gives it balance and is lively on the palate. It has a lovely smooth mouth feel as well, which is surprising given it has no emulsifiers. It's very pure with only 3 ingredients, so a real testament to how good 'proper' chocolate can taste. I adore that it is so ethically sourced and produced. I ordered several bars and everyone of my friends I gave it to as a gift said it was the best chocolate they had ever had. Love that all the packaging, including the foil is made from wood, so fully compostable. Perfect :)
