Equal Exchange 80% Dark from Panama
May 29, 2019
I eat chocolate bars from Equal Exchange all the time, and I assumed that I reviewed them as I consumed them. I was wrong!

Equal Exchange Extreme Dark Chocolate

A couple days ago I found myself grabbing a chocolate to eat not realizing it was going to upset a status quo I’ve had for many years.
This chocolate came to me by way of a wedding anniversary present, and it was new to me. The chocolate, at 88% cacao, is a rare find because it’s such a high percentage. For some people, you might as well call it baking chocolate! No doubt my friend, Kathy, would make a scrunchy face if she had even a lick of this bar.

Equal Exchange Chocolates

The Equal Exchange Co-op sells organic, fair-trade, premium chocolate bars. The chocolate is purchased from small-scale farmers and their families. The chocolate is made in the Swiss tradition from co-operatives in the Dominican Republic, Panama, Peru, and Ecuador.

I was given a mini-sized 55% dark chocolate bar for a tasting sample at a volunteer fair last week. It was delicious! (I bought a full-size 71% dark for later!)
