Product Review - Lindt Excellence with a Touch of Sea Salt
With a touch of what? Salt? In Chocolate? That ain't right!
Is what I thought when I saw this on the shelf last week. Curiosity bubbled away in me for a few days until today, when I took the plunge and bought a block.
First bite: couldn't taste salt, nope, just chocolate, dark chocolate, bittersweet, good quality chocolate...chew chew chew, swallow......oo! Salt! Hello!
Second bite: Chocolate, chocolate, saltiness, chocolate, chocolate.
And so on until the last bite (can I just say here that I only had one square? How's that for self control!).
So as you can see, the dominant flavour in this unusual concept, is chocolate. The salt is not overpowering or particularly thirst inducing. I find in some dark chocolates (in particular, anything over 70%) I get a bit of saltiness anyway, so this one wasn't particularly controversial tasting to me.
I would recommend it to anyone who likes dark chocolate and feels like a little teeny bit of difference (emphasis on teeny - the salt is only 3%).
