Impact
Milk Sickness afflicts individuals who ingest dairy products from a cow that feeds on white snakeroot (Ageratina altissima), a plant with a poisonous cluster of small white flowers. Symptoms include trembling, vomiting, & severe intestinal pain.
Oh, & just another reason to bottle on Swiss milk -- no snakeroot along the Alpine slopes where the heifers graze.
That aside, this bar packs & oozes so much cream that it should come not only with a lactose-intolerant warning but also a bra.

Appearance 3.5 / 5
| Color: | light taupe |
| Surface: | pistoles |
| Temper: | semi-flat |
| Snap: | resistent |
Aroma 8.1 / 10
crème fraîche vanilla-caramel
Mouthfeel 13.7 / 15
| Texture: | no sloshing, just slouching on a flotation pillow |
| Melt: | immeasurably drowsy (though it dissipates rapidly at the final turn) |
Flavor 45 / 50
heavy cream -> butter -> back caramel comes fore as salted almond-toffee with add'l cream support -> soft cocoa ripple over plantain on the way down
Quality 16.2 / 20
Somewhat vacuous (superfluity of cream more than Milk Choc... Felchlin's perishable Costa Rican lays down & rolls over… to a point) but excessively satisfying all the same.
Very characteristic of Felchlin's Milk Chocolate releases: dairy driven & dominant. No complaints given the quality of Alpine cows.
