Bissinger's All Natural


Evaluation Date: November 2012
Cocoa Content: 75%
Purchased @: Boehms Chocolates

Theo Rating: 9 - "I liked the color, aroma, texture and taste. However, for a 10, it needed to be a tad sweeter for me."


Broma Rating: 9 - "We have evaluated another Bissinger's previously. I really like this sample and would say that this could be included in the list of top "after lunch" dark chocolates! Great flavor, good size, really nice packaging!"

TAZA Stone Ground Organic


Evaluation Date: March 2012
Cocoa Content: 70%
Purchased @: Chocolopolis (Seattle)

Theo Rating: 5 - "I'm not pleased with the graininess. It was a little better than the last TAZA we tried, in terms of sweetness and cocoa taste, but still tended to be on the grainy side."


Broma Rating: 4 - "Again, I'm just not a fan of the TAZA brand dark choc. This one has a good cocoa flavor and sweetness level, but that 'gritty' texture is too overwhelming to make it enjoyable."
