I was slightly dubious when I bought this one, as I am a bit ambivalent about Nestle as they have ruined most of my old favourites. However, as I generally enjoy their flagship range - Double Choc, Double Cream etc, I was willing to give it the benefit of the doubt.
On unwrapping the bar one is instantly greeted by a tricoulored block that looks refreshingly different and appealing. It's a sort of suite of white chocolate with embedded coffee bits, milk chocolate and plain chocolate. Each piece is locked together in a sort of Chinese puzzle.
The smell is rather indifferent, but on biting through there is a wonderful snapping and crumbling feeling, as the different components come apart.
The taste is well..... divine is not too strong a word. Coffee-flavoured chocolate lovers will be sold on the spot. Those who hate it will find the soft coffee tones tolerable. It combines with the milk and plain chocolate sublimely, producing a totally gorgeous flavour.
Even die in the wool Nestle sceptics will enjoy this bar.
Bounty points 9.3/10

Why would those who hate coffee-flavoured chocolate try it in the first place?
Ewwww.

So did I. But I think we'll call it a typo.
"tricoulored block "
That one?
"die in the wool "
Or that one?
Or was it another one I missed?

You are like Joe next door in The Royle Family.
You should get a penguin biscuit for your distress!
