Shopping / Chocolates & Candy / Chocolate and Cherry: Pucker Up!!!

I did a review on a wonderful chocolate bar, called Green & Black's Mint.
It was delicious and I look forward to trying all of Green & Black's organic chocolate.

While checking out a new natural foods store I came across Green & Black's Cherry! I have been looking for this but haven't been able to find it. I love chocolate and I love cherries, so I thought I would love this.

It is dark chocolate with whole organic sour cherries. It has a 60% cocoa content, so it is rich and intense.

Organic Chocolate Liqour, Organic Raw Cane Sugar, Organic Cherries (Organic Dried Cherries, Organic Sunflower Oil), Organic Cocoa Butter, Soy Lecithin (Emulsified), Organic Vanilla Extract, Organic Whole Milk Powder

It is suitable for vegetarians.

How does it taste? WOW! When they say sour cherries they mean SOUR cherries. It was too sour for my taste. I could only have a few pieces of the bar and that was it. I put the rest in the fridge and it is still there. My husband tried it and he said the same thing, way too sour.
The chocolate itself is good, but the sourness of the cherries seem to overpower the chocolate, at least in my opinion.

I am sure there are people who love this chocolate bar otherwise I would think they would stop making them, but this is one Green & Black's chocolate I won't be getting again.

I personally have loved all of Green & Black's chocolate I have tried so this was a disappointment to me. I was hoping to really like the Chocolate/Cherry bar.

I guess I will stick with the Mint and Caramel ones for now!

  • Too bad this was so sour - I like my chocolate cherries nice and sweet, so I'll stay away from this one!
