Taza Chocolate Organic Mexican-Style Disc 50% Dark Chocolate, Orange, 2.7 Ounce (12 Count), VeganUSDA Organic

"Chocolate With True Grit. We use traditional Mexican stone mills, called molinos, to grind our cacao. The hand-carved stones that turn inside these mills preserve the bright, fruity flavors of the beans, and create a chocolate that's bold, rustic, and satisfyingly gritty -- unlike any other chocolate you've tasted"I flipping LOVE this "Super Dark" chocolate (85%). I adore the slight grit. It adds to the sensory experience. It IS satisfying. It isn't jarring to me at all. I'm in love. Think this is my new favorite for 85% cocoa because of the texture. It is just awesome (to me).This is my first time trying Taza chocolate. I am new to purposely eating dark chocolate. I dont know if my tastebuds have changed or if I was just trying the wrong stuff, but recently I have tried some very good dark chocolate, and I am preferring it over milk chocolate. It isnt as cloying. I find I can eat a little and be happy. I know it is healthier, which is a huge bonus. Pretty sure prior experience with dark chocolate was just HersheysSpecialDark, and so yeh.. when I decided to try dark chocolate again, I went for more premium brands (at premium prices).This is very good tasting to me. Has a bite, but not bitter. Just enough creaminess to lend a good mouth feel. The grit factor really adds a lot to the experience for me.Each packed round has 2 disks inside. Pack of 12 equates to 24 discs. Score marks allow for easy breaking off of pieces. I like that I can savor a slice at a time. I have not done anything else with it other than to eat it directly.

If you like Hershey chocolate then skip this, I can't believe how many bad reviews there could be for such an excellent product, surely it's destined to win awards, I am stunned at the fair pricing, the beautiful package, the colors of the wrappers, everything about it is wonderful, I don't think I will ever buy another brand, yes it's "gritty" it's stone ground! On a hand cut stone people!! If you don't like it that's because your palette is not refined enough to appreciate the good things in life.

Every one of these is excellent. The flavor is great and well-balanced. The chocolate is a bit crumbly, but that's just how it is with really dark chocolate. These are a definite favorite of ours.

This chocolate tastes really good. I love the stone ground texture. It definitely has a quality taste to it, but the flavors are all pretty faint and don't come through as strong as I would have liked. The biggest complaint I have with this chocolate is the price. I paid $23 for this 8 pack sampler as a gift for my wife. After trying the chocolate and seeing the size of each disc, I would never pay this price again. As I write this review I see the chocolate is on a sale for $16.10 now. $2 a disc might be a more reasonable price if you want to try something special and unique.That being said, the chocolate is organic, doesn't contain toxic ingredients like dyes or artificial flavoring, etc. Quality chocolate can be hard to find, and I appreciate that Taza isn't using harmful ingredients.

These are so delicious. They have a grit too them, but its lovely, not at all bad.

I love Taza Chocolate discs. The stone ground "grainy" texture. The unique flavors. I am a chocolate fiend and these are at the absolute top of the list for my personal tastes. As in the number one spot. But the prices are beyond absurd (for me subjectively). Even within the 2023 scope of post-pandemic and "inflation", the prices are still outrageously silly. I don't mind paying for quality once in awhile, especially if I consider it the best in a category. But even with that framing, the prices are still bonkers.I tried these the first time many moons ago during a summer chocolate clearance sale on an Amazon sister site. And even during that they were a seemingly silly price. But the flavors in their 8 count variety pack were too intriguing to pass up. I was blown away when they arrived. If you'll pardon the descriptor; orgasmic. They were simply amazing. I immediately bought a handful more and tossed em in the deep freezer. Pulling one out on random rainy days over time. That was it for purchasing the best chocolate on the planet for years though. They sat on my Amazon wishlist with their absurd prices, never reaching a point where I could venture back into chocolate heaven. Years.I just picked this 4 pack up on "sale" for 8USD which is the lowest it has been in those years. My glasses weren't rose-tinted; These were still my favorite chocolate. The grainy texture can only be described as such, but doesn't do it justice. It's still chocolate. It still melt in your mouth. It's an amazing textural experience and mouth feel. The "minimally processed" really shines through in this respect. The chocolate itself is top notch. They don't over sweeten. It's the right amount of bitter. Perfectly balanced. And then the flavors... My goodness. Again, perfect balance. Perfect amount of each to make them present, but in the end it's still chocolate first and foremost too. The flavor and chocolate are always hitting you the same amount from bite to aftertaste. Perfect unison.But the prices are dumb. The brand has leaned more into bars and less fun flavors (though who knows, I haven't tried them because; ya know). These Mexican inspired discs hopefully aren't ever going to fall to the wayside because man, they're lightning in a bottle. Prices and spending are nearly completely subjective, I'm just too much of a boring tightwad to be able to enjoy these as much as I'd like. Even 5% as much as I'd like. Who knows, maybe it's for the better, "too much of a good thing" and all that! I just wanted to say, that if you're on the fence and the price isn't a barrier; Go for it. These are amazing. They are IT.

Some of the best chocolate ive ever had very unique flavor and texture real mexican chocolate!
