Taza ChocolateOrganic Mexicano Disc 50% Dark Chocolate, Cinnamon, 2.7 Ounce (1 Count), Vegan

true Mexican sugar aka panela is unbleached and retains all of the nutrients naturally occurring in sugar cane including iron and blood sugar stabilizing chromium. first discovered how delicious Mexican sugar was when saved my pennies from allowance to buy one of those packets on the end caps where you can get genuine Mexican herbs and spices (and the ONLY place i have ever seen mexican ground oregano which definitely tastes different than Mediterranean oregano and uniquely compliments the flavor components, if you have not tried, you are missing out, seriously) and to my thinking was the best way to optimize my pennies by maximizing the amount of sugar i could get from my allowance. i was unprepared for how good it would be. i was used to the plain sweet that came in the blue and pink boxes and not the caramel like flavor of the lumps of dehydrated cane juice; what a wonderful surprise :)that is the organic sugar that goes in mexican-style chocolate. then of course the cacao and of course the vanilla beans which grow wild in Mexico. best vanilla i EVER had came from an open market in Mexico in a recycled tequila bottle. the orchids that produce the vanilla bean pods are indigenous to Mexico and a few other places in the southern hemisphere of the americas. in fact, oaxaca is still home to wild vanilla orchids.these three simple but complex flavors make this delicious chocolate. the flavors unfold individually before they meld completely on the palate. it is a unique experience in chocolate.

I love these. I would subscribe, but I can't. It's like a drug addiction. Great price, until you are addicted. Price doubled from $3 to $6 over the last purchase. They were comparable with other dark chocolate bars for 3oz, but now "nope" .

I like the gritty vanilla beans and crumbly texture. If you like to chew on vanilla specks then you would like it

I will always add one or 2 of these to my cart when on sale. The flavor and texture are top notch!

I was excited to try this, but it is difficult to taste the chocolate over the sugar. There is so much sugar, that it feels grainy in my mouth. I liked the flavor though, it was just too sugary for me.

Perfectly pure taste. Excellent balance of flavors. Nothing but the essential ingredients. Best brand of chocolate.

Had to try it, probably a good chocolate for baking. It is very sugary in texture, and the cinnamon is mild.

On a recent trip to Cancun, I picked up another brand of dark Mexican chocolate flavored with real vanilla. That brand was fantastic but only available in Mexico. After a lengthy research process, I decided to purchase the Taza chocolate since it had almost the exact same ingredients. Horribly disappointed- chocolate is not dark enough, has a cloying sweetness with no discernible vanilla tones, and the cocoa bean texture was similar to pervasive fine sand. I barely choked down two squares and couldn't even give it away. Terrible.
