This is the Koko Black Midnight Espresso. It consisted of a dark chocolate (with 54% minimum cocoa solids) and ground coffee beans.
The bar had a luxurious aroma reminiscent of rich dark chocolate and freshly brewed coffee, akin to a well-crafted mocha. Upon tasting, the dark chocolate melted almost immediately, offering a velvety texture and a rich cocoa flavour harmonised by a subtle sweetness and without any harsh bitterness or acidity. As the bite progressed, the flavour of coffee gradually emerged, culminating in a satisfyingly aromatic roasted finish, accentuated by the delightful crunch of ground coffee beans.
Overall, this coffee-infused dark chocolate captured the essence of a premium mocha, delivering a creamy and indulgent experience that celebrated the aromatic interplay between chocolate and coffee, while gracefully sidestepping any potential acidity. It certainly warrants consideration for repurchase.
This Koko Black Midnight Espresso contained 80 g. It was produced in Australia and received as a gift from family visiting Melbourne, Australia in 2023.
