Bar of the Week: Pralus' Ghana


Pralus' Ghana bar is made in France using Forestero beans grown in Ghana.  Like most of Pralus' line, Ghana is a 75% dark chocolate with strong roasty notes and a silky-smooth texture.  In other respects, Ghana has its own thing going on.  Pralus' tasting notes describe Ghana as "relentlessly aromatic, cocoa, spicy," but most of us here experience it as milder and more subtle than many of Pralus' other offerings, with the earthiness characteristic of the region leavened by a nutty sweetness not unlike sun-warmed hay.

We'll have samples of Pralus' Ghana available on Saturday, May 28th.
