TASTING NOTES
This Nicaraguan Milk chocolate is no exception to Omnom’s focus upon quality. This bar is deliciously smooth and fudge-like in texture whilst also exhibiting opulent flavours of caramel, malt and biscuits. The natural flavours of the Nicaraguan cocoa are used in perfect harmony with cocoa butter and milk in this bar to create a chocolate that is expertly balanced and deliciously indulgent.

Charlie S. –
Peeling back the beautiful geometric wrapper, a subtle but inviting chocolatey aroma greets you. Quite fudge-y in consistency, the initial flavour is one of milk. This is quickly joined with notes of caramel, that whilst not adding sweetness, instead deliver a deep malt-y flavour. In many ways this combination of milk and malt flavours reminded me of the Mars branded chocolate bars we have all enjoyed as children. – think Galaxy or Maltesers. As reflected by the cocoa percentage of this bar, the milk-y notes lead overall, with cocoa taking a bit of a back seat. However there is no mistaking the quality of this bar, it has a pleasant sheen and snaps crisply, whilst offering a wide range of harmonious flavours that work well together. Personally I found this bar a little too milk-y for my own taste, but certainly look forward to trying other OMNOM bars in the future.
