Super Dark

"Chocolate With True Grit. We use traditional Mexican stone mills, called molinos, to grind our cacao. The hand-carved stones that turn inside these mills preserve the bright, fruity flavors of the beans, and create a chocolate that's bold, rustic, and satisfyingly gritty -- unlike any other chocolate you've tasted" I flipping LOVE this "Super Dark" chocolate (85%). I adore the slight grit. It adds to the sensory experience. It IS satisfying. It isn't jarring to me at all. I'm in love. Think this is my new favorite for 85% cocoa because of the texture. It is just awesome (to me). This is my first time trying Taza chocolate. I am new to purposely eating dark chocolate. I dont know if my tastebuds have changed or if I was just trying the wrong stuff, but recently I have tried some very good dark chocolate, and I am preferring it over milk chocolate. It isnt as cloying. I find I can eat a little and be happy. I know it is healthier, which is a huge bonus. Pretty sure prior experience with dark chocolate was just HersheysSpecialDark, and so yeh.. when I decided to try dark chocolate again, I went for more premium brands (at premium prices). This is very good tasting to me. Has a bite, but not bitter. Just enough creaminess to lend a good mouth feel. The grit factor really adds a lot to the experience for me. Each packed round has 2 disks inside. Pack of 12 equates to 24 discs. Score marks allow for easy breaking off of pieces. I like that I can savor a slice at a time. I have not done anything else with it other than to eat it directly.

Best chocolate. Tinge of sweetness

I eat plain dark chocolate, the darker the better, to help get rid of migraines. I've been obsessed with Taza Mexican chocolate since I first tasted it years ago, but I could never justify buying it when other bulk kosher dark chocolate is much cheaper per ounce. Recently I could justify buying it, and it did not disappoint! The taste is amazing, and the texture is delightful! I will note that stone-ground chocolate has a rougher/grittier texture than regular chocolate, so if you have texture issues, this might not be your product. There are actually 2 chocolate discs per round, which means that it lasts longer. I eat only small amounts at a time, so this 10-pack should last me a while.

The chocolate in Taza discs and bars is how chocolate tastes when it’s real and doesn’t include fillers, emulsifiers, preservatives, and the toxic lead and cadmium now known to be in most US chocolate products from basic to premium brands. However, buy it directly from the Taza website or risk getting what I and others have received... white and dusty, bloomed chocolate that has been improperly stored/handled at some point and discs that have to be pried apart with a knife. Google Taza and order from them. They also send coupon emails.

This chocolate has a yummy, rich dark chocolate flavor, but the texture is grainy...probably from the Mexican grinding stones...sort of like eating fine chocolate sand. I'll give it a chance. If I don't acquire a taste for fine chocolate sand by the time I'm done eating through this 12 pack, I most likely won't order it again. My favorite dark chocolate is Green & Black's, but I heard they have a high lead content, so not ordering that anymore. Update: After consuming this chocolate for a number of months, both the flavor and the texture have grown on me. It's pretty rich and delicious. I kind of like the texture now, but it took getting used to.

This is good stuff. I don't want all the soy lecithins and other chemicals and don't want a ton of sugar. This fits the bill. Personally this is one of my favorites. It is a little grainy (I think that's the stone ground part) but it's a unique taste that I really enjoy. I also like: Tcho Chocolate Cacao,81% Evolved Chocolate - Organic Chocolate Bar, Signature Dark, 72% - really clean, no sugar, and great Hu Chocolate Bars Simple Chocolate - smooth and great Milkboy Swiss Chocolates - Extra Dark Chocolate Bars 85%, its a different taste and has a bit more sugar

I’m disappointed. Other reviewers praise it for lacking bitterness, but you expect dark chocolate to have at least a little bit of an edge to it, right? Despite being 85% dark, it’s just lacking punch, and tastes more like a 50% to me.

Fast delivery and great packaging. We love this chocolate, and it’s hard to go back to store bought brands once you get used to its quality. It is stone ground so has a slightly gritty texture but the flavor is delicious - real cocoa. It’s on the pricey side but the extra clipping coupon on the listing made it worth it!

Dark and delicious. A treat.

I find most 85% dark chocolate is a bit bitter for my taste so I was pleasantly surprised the first time tasting the super dark. The amount of fibre in this chocolate is great. I read all about the company on the website and am very impressed with the respect that company owner Alex Whitmore and his staff have for the cacao grower suppliers. They are a very good company that makes an excellent product. Thanks

Perfect if you like the taste of cardboard. Bonus, was not able to make any return or refund.

The Bars are easy to break in sections.....The chocolate feels a bit gritty as it melts in your mouth because it is stone ground....That is fine with me because I love the flavor of the 85%....

Great chocolate, arrived in time
