Panama 92; Weisse Vanille
by Vivani
Impact
***************************************************************************
Vegetotherapy refers to Wilhelm Reich's practice that works on emotions with everything from tickling massage to, of course, the Orgone Generator.
Orgone derived from "organism" & "orgasm" – a cosmic energy, perhaps even God.
This pair of bars from Deutschland are polar opposites: one a mere organism, the other a near orgasm.

Quality 13.7 / 20
Panama 92:
Maxi Wax (an almost 2-to-1 fat to mass ratio; see the Barithmetic below)… just as well since Panamanian cacáo lacks. Nonetheless a grueling bitterness bites thru the butter. Made with 8% coconut "blossom" sweetener. Please, stop the sugar fraud.
This site receives & gifts a lot of chocolate so trust this: an embarrassment to even give it away.
INGREDIENTS: cocoa mass, cocoa butter, sugar, Barithmetic (Cocoa mass / Butter / Sugar ratio): ~4:8:1
Weisse Vanille
Batch L214202
Distinct umami point, probably powered by the milk powder, offsets the cloying quality for a top-flight White in an anecdote to Vivani's Panama (above). Streamline yet buttressed by judicious use of both bourbon vanilla & raw cane sugar which imparts its own subtle flavor to add back the vacancies created by a deodorized cocoa butter.
INGREDIENTS: cocoa butter, whole milk powder (40%), raw sugar, vanilla
