This was amazingly fruity, a number of different flavours coming through. Smooth and tangy, a nice one.

Maybe our all-time favourite chocolate: fresh bright berry flavours, very long and complex, brilliant texture. World class chocolate.

notes of apricot, sour cherry, and strawberry jam. extremely fruity & good, silky texture
Lynette A. –
Very fruity. Of course, everyday I taste something else. After a slow melt at the end I got Carmel today. Maybe a little wine early on. Was it raspberry? Some sort of berry as well. All of Original Beans is excellent quality. I think if you like some, you will like this too.

(Received as part of a virtual tasting kit)
Aroma: berries
Melt: quick, satin
Flavour: two types of raspberry- a darker raspberry that is present throughout, and a brighter, tangier raspberry that appears in bursts.
Nice but not a personal favourite.
Ben S. –
A very nice chocolate, but not as tasty as the Virunga
Jane E. –
This is my favourite so far! Beautifully smooth as it melts in your mouth. Absolutely delicious if you’re a dark chocolate addict like me!

Very smooth and melts beautifully in the mouth. Lovely fruity flavours.

My mother has a thing for dark chocolate from Peru. One that she tried a while ago seems to have disappeared. So I’ve been scouring good chocolate makers for an alternative. And my goodness she’s hard to please. All my efforts had been rejected until… this. Hurrah! She loves it. Oh how she loves it…. *adding more bars to cart*

I’m new to craft chocolate but so impressed by the Original bars so far
Their description is spot on – faint raspberry notes, bright taste but not acidic
Like me did you used to hate Fry’s Turkish Delight?
Well it’s like that but nice!

Classic brown colour, although quite bright as you’d expect from Piura Porcelana. Strong on the nose, sweet with a hint of tobacco. Strong taste, starts with a strong almond and a hint of raspberry, then mellows down towards the finish. Absolutely delicious!
Julia –
Best of the Piura Porcelena cacao bars I have tried so far. Exceptionally silky.
Dina A. –
I can certainly taste the lime and toasted pecan notes, a good intense dark chocolate that isn’t too bitter.
