Slitti Super Novanta 90% Venezuela cacao - Made in Italy

This chocolate starts with everything you would look for in a chocolate. It has a nice dull sheen that is even and smooth. It smells of rich, chocolate. The snap is loud and the gradient is smooth and marbled. But the flavor is intensely bitter. It is also dry, chalky and dense. I think is a good chocolate for 90% cacao. I would like to see a little more umph with this chocolate. I didn't pick up any of the fruity flavors that the wrapper alluded to. I did think the aftertaste was lingering and pleasant. I give this chocolate a 4.9 out of 10.
