Dick Taylor Dark Chocolate with Candied Almonds
What if you add to the perfect Sunday morning Dick Taylor Dark Chocolate "The Northerner" chopped candied almonds, cinnamon, and sugar?. The perfect indulgence, a life pleasure… The Goodness of Life!
Dick Taylor dark chocolates use the finest cacao and a contemporary take on traditional European techniques; they are capable of recognizing the potential of the cacao beans they source adequately. This dark chocolate is meticulously crafted directly from the bean in a small factory in Eureka, Humboldt County, part of Northern California. "The Northerner" dark chocolate utilizes a balanced blend of organic cacao beans sourced from Madagascar and Brazil. These "trinitarian" beans are roasted in-house to bring the best flavors to your mouth. Then, while preparing for tempering, chopped roasted and caramelized almonds are added to the bottom for a perfect combination of nuts and dark chocolate. As they are classically known by now, Dick Taylor's vintage-looking packing, like the ship from the 1800s represented in the dark chocolate's name, will delight you with its look and feel. This 73% dark chocolate bar, like all other Dick Taylor chocolates, will impress you with its pattern, unmistakable! Dark brown as expected for a 73% bar, and then a crisp snap will take you to a fruity aroma, described by the chocolate maker as dried apricots. The flavor is dominated by sweet, honey. However, for us, coming from South America, the sweetness matches more raw sugar, known as "papelón" in some countries. You should not miss the clear cacao or real chocolate notes at the end of your tasting experience with this dark chocolate bar. The texture, in this case, is crunchy, along with the velvety chocolate while melting. One of our favorite features of most, if not all, Dick Taylor's chocolates, and this is no exception.
