Day Seven

Unfortunately today I was unable to make it class, due to a sickness finally getting the best of me. However, I was able to have a friend bring home some of the chocolates that were tasted in class. I was told that the 4 chocolates were: a 62%, a 70%, an 82%, and a mystery. The 62% was very bitter, and not the favorite that I had tasted so far. The 70% and the 82% were the same unfortunately. For the most part, I attribute this to the fact that I was sick, and my taste buds were not operating at optimal capacity. However, there was no doubting that I could taste the mystery chocolate. The first bite was extremely filled with cayenne pepper. However, that was the only bite that I could actually taste anything besides dark chocolate. I was told banana was in the chocolate as well, but I think a combination of my sickness, the cayenne, and the dark chocolate overpowered this flavor. While I was disappointed I was unable to make it to class today, I am looking forward to another great week starting Monday!
