Beschreibung
The chocolate:
This bar was made directly in Madagascar and garnished with tart cranberries and small pieces of hazelnuts. The ingredients complement each other perfectly. Admittedly, we were a bit skeptical about the station wagon at first, but after the first bite our skepticism vanished. The finely chopped hazelnuts give the bar a subtle nutty taste, while the cranberries perfectly complement the fruitiness of the Malagasy cocoa beans. There is also a pinch of cinnamon, which makes the whole thing nice and spicy. The cocoa used for this bar is grown in the northwest of the island, in the Sambirano Valley, and then processed into delicious bars in a local chocolate factory.

Tasting-Anleitung
TASTING-ANLEITUNG
You want to taste your chocolate like real chocolate experts? Here we go! Here are our tasting tips:
Tasting preparation:
Ideally, you should make sure that your chocolate and any pairing drinks are brought to room temperature before the tasting. Are you trying the chocolate with several people? So that the others are not initially influenced by the pretty packaging, it is best to unpack the chocolates beforehand and break them into small pieces.
Smaller pieces of around 5g per person are ideal, we recommend 2 small pieces per person. So you can “taste” it again.
If you want to take a more professional approach, you can also have a pen and paper ready to jot down impressions.
You try several chocolates one after the other? Then only glasses and water are missing for the perfect tasting happiness ;-). You use the water to neutralize between the taste buds. It should not be too cold, otherwise the mouth will cool down and the next chocolate may melt more slowly. If you like, you can add a splash of apple cider vinegar to the water. According to bean-to-bar pioneer Zotter, this cleans the taste buds on the tongue particularly well. By the way: even if you only try one fine chocolate, you can still do a mini tasting. Take your favorite chocolates from the supermarket and see where the differences lie. This is exciting both in terms of taste but also in terms of the ingredients and information that the manufacturers provide you with.
You want to drink more than just water? Then read here how to find a perfect (wine) pairing.
