Impact
Lawmakers in Santa Cruz, Bolivia (the country where the cacáo in this bar comes from) declare it illegal for a man to have sex with a woman & her daughter at the same time. Separately is fine; but together, no. Presumably this posed a big enough problem that they passed a law against it.
Maybe the same holds true for Milk Chocolate. Especially this outlaw bar from the French A. Morin.
Guess who is what in this illicit 'bar-rage à trois' featuring cacáo, milk, & sugar?

Purists shun vanilla nowadays in their Dark bars but who dares go without in Milk Chocolate?
Good thing no one told Franck Morin.
No need for vanilla with his level of custom tailoring.
Tastes positively manipulated beyond a mere Milk Chocolate, as though venturing into stealth territory, compromised ala Dos Rios with Flavored infusions.
Outstanding alignment of compounds. Those esters responsible for Bolivia's signature dried-fruit notes -- gleaned in A. Morin's straight 70% Dark -- convert to pronounced spices under the influence of lactose sugars in this bar.
High quality French milk too, almost bottle-fresh, compared to the tainted dairy found in Duffy's Dark-Milk Ocumare that should stigmatize English cows with 'contaminated' on their foreheads. Only trace milk powder detected in this, the components so well integrated.
A near-seamless pairing; check that, Franck Morin daisy-chains cacáo, milk, & sugar into a flavorful threesome.
