So I finally tried the third Allegro Single Source Drinking Chocolate - along with my willing volunteer tasting panel. So why has it taken me so long to write about it?
Well, it was delicious. Definitely. It was very rich and certainly very chocolate. So far so good, but all very obvious. It was not like the Peruvian or the Columbian - it continued to amaze me by being quite distinctly flavored. Now the hard part. How to describe the rich chocolatiness as something completely distinct and unique. I've been stumped. It has required repeated "tests" of the Costa Rican hot chocolate.
We all liked it. I still like it. My favorite of the three types will remain the Colombian - the espresso of hot chocolates in my book. This Costa Rican was delicious. It reminded me of chocolate pudding, but I couldn't tell you why. Imagine a drinkable and warm chocolate pudding.
Again, I'd have to say recommended with reservations - delicious, chocolaty, but also farely expensive. One of my volunteer tasters has recommended Green and Black's Organic Hot Chocolate. That will be up next in my chocolate testing schedule. Any volunteers?
