Color:	omega brown
Surface:	another gorgeous mold w/ whorls (moiré) on the underside yielding the illusion of liquidity
Temper:	pro sheen
Snap:	shears right off

rather closed, small musk on the inhalation + spices, big roast, & cocoa; full citric ferment on the rub down

Texture:	fat & dry
Melt:	sand (from nibs) & elapsed as an hourglass

crisp snap betrays initially soft red tongue (cherry) until nibs rapidly take over -> quiet earth-driven flavors – leafy greens, grass, nut meats (particularly almond), & morel mushroom -> faint raisin back

In some ways the best match, though not overall flavor, of Gobino pairing Nacional nibs to single origin beans. Nibs continue to overpower but with this bar there’s at least a better degree of complementarity.
