\"\"<\/a>Green & Black’s<\/span><\/a> was founded in 1991 in the UK and entered the U.S. market in 2003. Green & Black’s spares no expense in producing the highest quality chocolate and has control of every stage of the chocolate manufacturing process<\/span><\/a>. Green & Black’s sets the stage by starting with\"\"<\/a> premium fine organic cocoa beans (the vast majority of cocoa beans are made from the inferior bulk beans) which are derived from two varieties: Criollo and Trinitario. Instead of including unfermented beans in the chocolate, which is a common practice, Green & Black’s has a policy to only use fermented beans, which produces the best possible flavor. After fermentation, Green & Black’s dries the beans naturally and not via fire, which can product unpleasant smoky flavors. The chocolate is allowed to develop in richness and complexity and this process is not rushed, as with other chocolate manufacturers. All this adds up to superb and an unforgettable bar which will delight the hearts of chocolate lovers everywhere.<\/p>\n

Green & Black’s offers a line of ice-cream<\/span><\/a>, baking cocoa<\/span><\/a>, baking bar<\/span><\/a>, hot chocolate<\/span><\/a> and chocolate bars<\/span><\/a>, . We received all 12<\/span><\/a> flavors<\/a> which range from White Chocolate<\/span><\/a> all the way through to Dark 85%<\/span><\/a>, with a full range of flavors falling in between. Milk Chocolate fans will be delighted with the milk chocolate flavors which include Milk<\/span><\/a>, Caramel<\/span><\/a> & Almond<\/span><\/a>. Green & Black’s uses a higher level of cocoa mass in their milk chocolates, emphasizing the chocolate over the milk, which really distinguishes them from other chocolate makers. Dark Chocolate lovers can select from Maya Gold<\/span><\/a>, Ginger<\/span><\/a>, Hazelnut & Currant<\/span>, Cherry<\/span>, Espresso<\/span><\/a>, Mint<\/span><\/a>, Dark 70% <\/span><\/a>and Dark 85%.<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n

Our testers are dark chocolate fans and the following 6 flavors were favorites among the testers:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>*Mint<\/span><\/a>
Dark chocolate shell made from 70& cocoa content, filled with a delicious sweet mint filling. This bar will make the perfect after dinner mint chocolate treat. Both adults and children will enjoy this flavor!<\/p>\n

*Ginger<\/span><\/a>
This flavor has just the right balance of crystallized ginger and dark chocolate which is truly rare to find in a ginger flavored chocolate.<\/p>\n

*Maya Gold<\/span><\/a>
Inspired by the Maya Indians in South Belize, this one of a kind chocolate bar is truly special. The carefully chosen spice blend and hint of orange are paired perfectly with the dark chocolate, resulting in a taste that will conjure up visions of romantic and exotic destinations.<\/p>\n

*Hazelnut & Currant<\/span><\/a>
Crunchy roasted Hazelnut and dark chocolate are the perfect duo which is further enhanced with the sweet currants.<\/p>\n

*Dark 70% Heart Healthy (our top pick)<\/span><\/a>
The perfect bittersweet chocolate. Once you have tried this chocolate bar, you will be smitten. Just a small piece of this dark chocolate will satisfy your chocolate cravings.<\/p>\n

*Dark 85% Heart Healthy<\/span><\/a>
Rich, creamy and decadent, this bar has a moist and smooth texture. Let this chocolate melt slowly in your mouth to appreciate the blend of chocolate mass, cocoa butter and Madagascan organic vanilla.<\/p>\n

Research is showing that dark chocolate (minimum of 70% cocoa content), has heart healthy benefits including the ability to lower blood pressure, keep cholesterol from gathering in blood vessels and reducing the risk of blood clots. Many dark chocolate bars on the market may meet the 70% cocoa content requirement but are made from non-organic cocoa beans, plus they are loaded with sugar. Green & Black’s sets the standard by using the highest quality fine organic cocoa beans which means that the beans are grown without toxic pesticides. Due the quality of\"\"<\/a> these beans and the careful manner in which the beans are processed into chocolate, the end result is a product that does not need excess sugar to mask the bitterness and poor quality that is found in other dark chocolates. In addition, all the added ingredients are all organic which ensures the purest, healthiest chocolate bar on the market. Chocolate<\/span><\/a> makes the perfect gift for every occasion. You may have been to many wine tasting parties, but have you considered hosting a chocolate tasting party? Green & Blacks offers excellent tips<\/span><\/a> on how to ensure a successful evening of chocolate tasting that your guests will be talking about for a long time!<\/p>\n
