italian chocolate

yes, the final summer shipment from clay gordon's chocophile shop has arrived. 2 bars each of slitti's latternero 62% and bruco 60% with coffee and anise, as well as a 72% dark chocolate.

the bruco is a very interesting chocolate, one that won the eurochocolate award (flash required) at perugina last year. (long-time readers will recall that bccy chocolate hero richard donnelly is also a winner of this prize!)

it's made by one fabio lenci from high quality cocoa beans and prestigious varietals, using a traditional family recipe. of course the slitti is total heroin; i'll let you know about the bruco very very shortly. . .
