Map Chocolate Co is a craft chocolate, bean to bar maker located in the Willamette Valley area of Oregon. Map also happens to be one of my favorite chocolate makers! Yes, I am a Mapoholic!!
Map Chocolate's I Dream of Fiji 78% Dark Chocolate Bar
Color: Dark brown.
Nose: White honey, soft nose, lavender.
Texture: Thicker bar, medium-bodied, smooth.
Taste: Floral, white honey, purple plum, coffee, spice.
Finish: Medium
Even though this Fiji bar is 78%, it is very easy to eat, and I highly recommend it as a great introduction for those wanting to try a higher percentage bar. No bitterness. No worries.
Map Chocolate's Nightswimming 60% Belize Dark/Milk Chocolate Bar
I love dark/milk bars. This one has some unique flavors too!
Color: Light/medium brown with a touch of red.
Nose: Chocolate covered caramel bonbon, coffee.
Texture: Very smooth.
Taste: Condensed milk (but not the sweetness), hint of acidity, brown sugar, tomato, BBQ, coriander.
Finish: Hint of clementine in a medium finish.
