This is the Darrell Lea Peppermint Partytime Dark Chocolate. It’s described as being ‘packed with intensely fresh fudge pieces (15%) and a generous sprinkling of mint chips (5%) smothered in thick, rich, smooth […] dark chocolate (80%)’. The dark chocolate contained 47% cocoa solids.

The chocolate has the refreshing aroma of an after-dinner mint. Upon tasting, the freshness of the mint came through before even biting through the block, after which the dark chocolate gave way with a firm crunch that contrasts the softer and chewy fudge pieces. As the dark chocolate melts to a creamy smoothness, the richness is cut through by the freshness of the fudge pieces as well the mint chips, which deliver a crunchy, fresh finish. This is an intriguing, yet enjoyable, take on an after-dinner mint.
