Negro con Almendras
by Blanxart
Impact
Non-thinking bar. Straight-bashing direct from the list of ingredients: what you eat is what you taste - just break & chew.
Appearance 2.7 / 5
| Color: | no-man's-land / buffer zone between milk, grey, & brown |
| Surface: | airholes, swirling, nuts piercing & showing thru |
| Temper: | semi-dull |
| Snap: | soft thud |
Aroma 4.9 / 10
vanilla monster candy bar in the abandoned attic among cobwebs, cotton, fiberglass insulation, dried leather, vinyl, construction paper, cocoa dust, & dry-roasted nut
Mouthfeel 10.1 / 15
| Texture: | disjointed chunks, bumps, crunch, & munch |
| Melt: | collapses, falls apart... then weirdly gulpable as nuts drain off chocolate rain like fringes on a jacket |
Flavor 40.3 / 50
vanilla browned sugar cube -> cocoa blast -> almonds work thru -> chocolate liqueur w/ frag bits & a tiny tar bubble choke point
Quality 16.1 / 20
Solid baseline flavor. Nothing revelatory. Almonds merely accent a highly-sweetened tannin-stoked cocoa.
