I've tried these different ones from Lindt. Their Sea Salt one's pretty good. I did once have a delicious bar of chilli dark chocolate, but neither Lindt nor the one they have in ALDI are as good.
My favourite is still the J.D.Gross 70% cocoa dark chocolate from Lidl, the one in the red packet.
Haven't tried it yet. Quite like the chilli but the Maya Gold is my favourite. Also did I dream it or did I see a wasabi dark chocolate a few months back?

chocolate with flakes of salt in it. shouldn't work, but it does... almost too well. on my 2nd bar this eve :(
Try Sea Salt Caramel then you'll know how awesome chocs can be, either that or the Peanut Butter Lindor. I've made myself sick to the point where I had to lie down for a while after eating those things :D
I've had that one before but didn't think the sea salt was strong enough. A bit too "soft" of a flavour for my tastes.
EDIT:
Hmmmm, now that I look at the packaging a bit more carefully, I do see it says "a touch of" ... so maybe I just need to continue looking for a saltier chocolate.
Keep trying to get him to make us chocolate spectrums.
I bought one of those 'retro' choc bars that is modelled on a speccy for my bro after seeing the thread on here... it arrived snapped in half and amazon won't give a replacement.
No, its not Wonka although my other brother is called William, he's a "weed technician" which is not a job in Amsterdam, its someone who keeps the weeds off railway tracks.
Just had an email from Brother Choc and he does indeed do a Sea Salt Caramel bar. Never tried it as he lives in a hot country and it would melt in the post!

:lol:
I wonder if anyone's claimed for that sort of thing before...
If you'd ordered an expensive wedding cake design and when it arrived it was already cut into slices you might not be very happy, for instance...
yeah they just won't replace it...they'll do refund but that's too much hassle for something that's probably not even going to survive Xmas day, I can't be bothered re packing it, sending it off, waiting for confirmation etc etc etc
amazon's blurb:
Why can't I make a replacement?
We are unable to replace any items sold by other sellers that are Fulfilled by Amazon, because these sellers' inventory is constantly changing. You're welcome to return the item to us for a refund.
A local trader was fined for selling Asda cheapo chocolate bars in a Wonka Bar wrapper. He'd have gotten away with it if he hadn't tried to get away with adding "Mr" to the logo and passing it off as his own brand.

Tastes like chocolate with salt in it.

How much salt is in it? Did it make you thirsty during the night?

actually it's only about 75% spec, 25% made-up non specific 'retro' looking something or other...
was cased in bubble wrap and sent in a large padded jiffy bag too, tsk..... Xmas ruined
I recognise that, it's a Chocodore 81 isn't it?
Was it bought directly from Amazon, or a third party? Any reasonable seller would replace or at least give you a partial refund for that. Tsk indeed!

Still part of my day job is selling on Amazon so I shouldn't complain really :)
