Novi chocolate is an Italian made chocolate from the province of Piedmont. 

My in-laws recently traveled abroad and brought back a Novi milk chocolate bar for me.

This chocolate, called Novi Al Latte Classico, is an extra fine milk chocolate with a cacao content of 30%.

The label was in Italian but through the modern wonders of online translators, I found out what it said: “For over a century, we select the best cocoa beans, a true gift of nature. The precious beans reach our factory where they are roasted with advanced technology, while respecting tradition. We control of all stages of production, from raw material to finished product, and this ensures the uniqueness and goodness of Novi fine milk chocolate.”

This milk chocolate is smooth and velvety while it melts in your mouth.  It is very creamy, and the soft, cooked milky flavors blend well with the stronger chocolaty and nutty notes from the cacao.

I really do enjoy tasting a variety of chocolates.  Every aspect of chocolate production, including where it is made, adds a statement, subtle or grand, to the final flavor.

Ciao!
