Review Guide

Ratings assigned to the chocolate bars are based on the following aspects:

Flavor is the most important component of the Flavors of Cacao ratings. Diversity, balance, intensity and purity of flavors are all considered.
Texture has a great impact on the overall experience and it is also possible for texture-related issues to impact flavour.
Aftermelt is the experience after the chocolate has melted. Higher quality chocolate will linger and be long-lasting and enjoyable.
Overall Opinion is really where the ratings reflect a subjective opinion.
Other Notes- These are topics that may be interesting to discuss but may not necessarily impact the flavour or experience. For example, appearance, snap, packaging, cost etc.
