Moonstruck Fortunato No. 4 50% Milk Chocolate with Cacao Nibs Peru Single Origin Nacional Cocoa Bean Reivew

This might be the only milk chocolate I currently have in the house (I just might have an "emergency" chocolate bar at work that is Chocolove hazelnut milk chocolate).

Moonstruck Chocolate is made in Portland, Oregon.  This particular bar has cacao nibs in it for a nice crunch, it is single origin from Peru, and is listed as being made from Nacional beans.

Color:  Medium/light brown with a touch of red.
Nose:  Milky, touch of sweetness, faint notes of honey.


Texture:  Really smooth, and then a nice crunch from the cocoa nibs.  
Taste:  Hint of toffee, and honey, a touch of un-roasted hazelnut, a bit of un-roasted pecan, rich, not to sweet.
Finish:  Medium finish, with no sweetness left, and a touch drying to the mouth.

So the ultimate question (besides the life, Universe, everything stuff):  Do you go to the dark side, or does milk chocolate rule your world?

Now to go eat some dinner, and some chocolate chip cookies.  :)
