Grenada Chocolate Company (http://www.grenadachocolate.com/)

This raw chocolate bar is made in a small solar-powered factory founded in 1999 in Grenada (of course!)  On opening, it smells like the sea!  I can imagine an exotic beach holiday, it's that good.  Of course, the important bit is the taste.  It has strong red fruit notes, but also sea spray and something deeper.  I had no idea what this deeper flavour was until I found out the cacao grows on volcanic soil; that's exactly what that other flavour reminded me of.  I didn't find it too bitter, either.

All in all, I'd give this bar 8/10.  Very recommended.
