If there’s one thing I’ve learned since starting this website, it’s what good quality milk chocolate tastes like. I would argue that perhaps my tastes have been skewered a little bit, because I can’t help but compare everything to the top notch stuff I’ve tried, and this is no exception to that rule.

In the past I would have considered this to be excellent stuff. Green & Black’s is posh chocolate, isn’t it? It’s high quality, organic and pricy, so surely this should be right at the top of the milk chocolate range. Sadly, this isn’t quite the case.

The bar uses 34% cocoa solids which is a decent amount for a milk chocolate bar, it has hardly any ingredients though sugar (organic raw cane sugar…if that matters) is still first, with even milk powder coming before the cocoa mass.

This bar falls into a happy medium somewhere between the level of Cadbury’s chocolate and Lindt/Cote d’Or esque chocolate. It’s not bad by any means, but it’s not great, let alone superb like the small, independent chocolate manufacturers that I would class above even Lindt. This probably ranks about a 6/10 overall, it’s tasty, but just not good enough.

It’s a little plain, decent enough but for an ordinary milk chocolate bar that costs about the same as anything from Lindt, I can’t recommend it as other companies do trump this. If it’s on offer it may be worth a shot, but on its own…there are better bars out there.
