A Duo from Lucid Chocolatier

We really love the chocolate from Lucid Chocolatier, so we are determined to try each type of bar he has made.  The two we bought this time are  2 fruit bars, Mulberry Lait and Yuzu Noir.

MULBERRY LAIT
54% Milk Chocolate from the Piura White bean of Peru.   Mulberry looks like a long boysenberry or blackberry as a fruit.

This has strong chocolate flavours for a milk chocolate.   It goes with a sweetness and tanginess you get from  the berries. I nice blend where you get a good hit of everything  with a hint of cream.

YUZU NOIR 70% Dark with Yuzu Confit.  Piura White cacao bean from Peru.
Yuzu is a citrus fruit that looks like a lemon coloured tangerine.

This was a pleasant surprise for us.  We are not overly keen on citrus and chocolate, but if we hadn't read the ingredients, I'm not sure we would have picked up citrus notes.  We got flavour notes of dried figs, earth and coffee.  This chocolate was strong and dark in flavour that lingered in the aftertaste.  We liked it.

FINAL THOUGHTS
Even though these were chocolate bars with fruit inclusions, the chocolate was still the strong prominent flavour of these bars which we liked.  The Mulberry bar, even though it was a milk chocolate was like eating a good dark chocolate with a hint of cream.  We are still enjoying Lucid Chocolatier chocolate very much.
