Domori Chocolate Criollo Bars 80%, 90%, 100% Reviews by Victoria Cooksey

I've been a fan of Domori for many years because the texture of their bars is always perfect, the flavors are amazing, and I've found the quality to be very consistent, so I was pretty excited to get to try these bars.  The 80%, and 90% come out later this year, so keep a sharp eye out for them!  

1st up is the Domori 80% Criollo bar:

Color:  Dark brown with reddish highlights. 
Nose:  Bright, dates, cocoa powder, very aromatic.
Texture:  Crisp snap, velvety texture.
Taste:  Peach/stone fruit notes, again, very bright notes.
Finish:  Long finish.


Next is the Domori 90% Criollo bar.

Color:  Medium/dark brown.
Nose:  Redfruit (currents, strawberries), cocoa powder.
Texture:  Great snap, velvety, very full-bodied. 
Taste:  Some bitterness, but no where near what I thought there would be, some tang at the end.
Finish:  Long, tangy, mocha. 


For the finale Domori 100% Criollo bar.

Color:  Medium/dark brown.
Nose:  A touch of sweetness on the nose, latte, red currants, cocoa powder.
Texture:  Silky, and very light bodied. 
Taste:  A nice mix of bitterness meets acidity, powerful, dark roast coffee, touch of oak.
Finish:  Very long.

Are you brave enough to try a 100% bar? 


Special thanks to Domori for letting me try these in advance!
