#2 in a series. Of Chocovic’s ‘Cluster Fudge’ trio (see 1 & 3), this is the one the mall-rats in the suburbs will recognize as ‘chocolate’.
Appearance   4 / 5
Color: pitch brown
Surface: slightly flaked
Temper: semi-flat
Snap: tight
Aroma   6.7 / 10
dirty butter, wax, vinyl, & brazier dooky-manure that even alkalis can’t suppress; aerates tobacco & radishes
Mouthfeel   11.4 / 15
Texture: stiff fat & dry powder
Melt: a time-vampire sucking it all day long
Flavor   39.1 / 50
cocoa-flavored sugar -> vanilla grinds down to chocolate chip -> cookie dough cut by cinnamon -> mocha fudge at the bottom -> clears out a tiny radish mixed in melon
Quality   16.2 / 20
From the color straight thru the taste, this shows dutching all the way but well-dutched, the alkalis never too grating, leaving some of the innate profile intact & on the table. But like it’s namesake - Zaire - belongs to a by-gone era.

ING: cocoa mass, sugar, cacáo butter, lecithin, vanilla; CBS (Cocoa Mass / Butter / Sugar ratio) 4:5:7
