I think Supervalu sell it. I find it almost inedible. Good for cooking, I'm told.

me too. i can go to about 80%

 

[Lefty Frizzell]

Thanks. Its certainly an acquired taste wobblerz.

Last time I procured an 85% bar I had two pieces and dumped the rest in a stew. 99% seems a bit extreme.

A lot of places do the 85% but I need more bitterness.

[Jill Hives]

Yeah, after 80% it gets a bit too bitter for me as well. I love dark chocolate though.

According to the back of the packet the chocolatiers at Lindt advise that in order to fully appreciate the 99% you should first climb through the ranks by sampling the 70 and 85% first.

Excellence 99% Cocoa is a unique chocolate that reveals all the strength and richness of cocoa beans. To fully appreciate its flavor and texture, we recommend that you progressively develop your palate through our range of high cocoa content chocolate bars, starting with Excellence 70% Cocoa, then 85% and finally 99% Cocoa. To best experience Excellence 99% Cocoa, taste a small piece and let it melt in your mouth. You can accompany your tasting with a coffee to help bring out the bouquet of cocoa.

Wankers.

anything higher than 88 and i go back in time with bitterness.

That's your answer to everything

Arguably should be in the "I have the horn for..." thread. I'm just finished a "Brazilian Darkness" from a tin of Roses. Tame.

I've just been informed that Lindts chocolate more than likely comes from Ghanian children forced into slave labour. This will only add more bitterness to the flavour.

[shitepipe]

whats the other 1%?

superglue?

 

[Buzzo]

99%! Sure you'd eat that for your jaysis dinner it's so savoury. I'd love to try it.

 

[ratmonkey]

Sure look at it, it says disgusting on the packet.

I think I had a single square of this in Belfast a couple of months ago, but it could have been a dream. Has anyone sourced a supply? I scoured the supermarkets of France last week for more but to no avail. You'd think they'd surely have it in their chocolate aisles but he highest I could find was 90% - very nice but not enough.

How's that going for you?

I belive Lindt Orange Intense is the nicest chocolate on the Irish market. There's actually bits of orange in it, kinda carmelised or something.
