Today's review is for a product I've had in the snacks archive for quite a while now...it was available last Summer as part of Hotel Chocolat's summer range, so I'm not sure if it's even around anymore. I couldn't resist giving it a try since I've always been a big fan of earl gray tea...and I thought it could taste potentially amazing paired with chocolate!
Although it wasn't amazing, it was still very, very nice indeed. The bar contains stripes of "mellow earl gray milk chocolate and creamy white lemon chocolate", and combined together they did provide a subtle earl gray flavor. The bar tasted very creamy thanks to the fantastically fresh lemon white chocolate, with the earl gray milk chocolate providing a subtle bergamot flavoured backdrop.
Overall, I thought this was a very tasty bar indeed and one I would thoroughly recommend if you like earl gray tea. I imagine it's not something the average Hotel Chocolat customer would want to try though...I guess I'm a bit weird with my flavor tastes!
RATING: 8 out of 10.
