Neuhaus Occumare 71% Venezuela cacao - Made in Belgium

This chocolate has a nice dull sheen to it with a brown color. The aroma is woody and smells of tobacco. It has a moderate snap to it and a crumbly, brittle gradient. It has a slow to moderate melt with a light, even and creamy texture. The flavor is balanced with a deep nutty taste. I also pick up a sweet liqueur flavor that makes this chocolate nice and tasty. It has a tangy back flavor with an interesting aftertaste that is both long and pleasant. Overall I think this is a really nice chocolate and this one gets a 7.4 out of 10.
