Like the other mix-in bars in the line, I felt the chocolate base was quite nice. I enjoyed the crunchy texture of the cacao nibs. I just wish that there would have been a detectable difference in taste between the chocolate and the nibs.

I wanted this to be a much more complex and deep tasting bar then it is. I almost feel like Nestle looked at it's demographic and decided that its probable buyers might be afraid of the bar and the whole idea of cacao nibs, and completely backed off from committing to the idea.

This chocolate was a very interesting blend of texture and taste :) Nestle did a fantastic job of the dark chocolate across its Noir line, but with this bar I think my favorite part was the little crispy bits. I would recommend this to anyone to try and would likely buy it again as a treat :D

I'm going to echo others' comments here. This flavor is definitely for the dark chocolate lover (which I happen to be, conveniently). The crunchy texture is a nice surprise and a pleasant taste. The intensity of the flavor would make it an excellent addition to another dish (someone has already made the great suggestion of a choco-croissant which I want to try out!), such as broken into a strawberry yogurt dessert. On its own, some people may find this a little too strong.

My personal favorite of the four Nestle Noir flavors is far and away the "Intense" bar, which has the creamiest and simplest taste and texture of all of them. Still, I would gladly buy this and the other varieties if my favorite is not available.

This is REALLY for dark chocolate lovers. The crunchy cocoa beans add a delightful crunch to the bar but also add a bit of bitterness to it. An unfortunate occurrence if you like your chocolate smoother. Although this wasn't as creamy as I would prefer, it was pleasant to eat because of the deep chocolate flavor and cocoa bean crunchies.

As I said above, if you are not a die hard dark chocolate lover you will find it bitter but not so much that you do can't enjoy it. I found the more you eat the less bitter it becomes which can be a good thing but also bad as you can plow through the entire bar before you know it. I probably would not purchase this after trying it but would not turn it down if offered to me in a social setting.

I really did enjoy the cocoa chocolate bits in this one. The chocolate was smooth, with a little bit of crunch! This is a good choice if you find plain chocolate just to plain. I found it to be quite delicious!

While I liked the texture the cocoa beans added to this dark chocolate, I found that it tastes too much like your typical dark chocolate. There was really nothing special about this one besides the texture. I did enjoy the extra twang of bitterness from the caramelized cocoa beans though! I think this would be perfect and a must for any lover of dark chocolate.

The contrast of textures between the chocolate and the cocoa bean pieces is nice. The burst of extra bitterness from the cocoa beans was a bit too much for my personal tastes. I thought this one was more intense than the Intense chocolate bar was.

I got this chocolate through Freebie Friday. I love dark chocolate, so I enjoyed it. However, I must admit that I was a little disappointed in the caramelized cocoa bits. The cocoa bits sounded interesting but because it's mixed in with such rich dark chocolate already, the cocoa bits flavour didn't stand out at all. Although I enjoyed the crunchy texture of the chocolate bar, I didn't find this to be anything special. I shared this chocolate bar with a friend of mine who also had the Noir Cherry with me. She also agreed that this wasn't as good as it looked. Overall, it tasted good and we enjoyed this delicious little snack!

I think that if you are a devoted lover of dark chocolate, you'll love this chcolate! As someone who is not, however, I found it too intense and not sweet enough for my liking. I did discover, however, that melt inside Pillsbury Croissants made the perfect use for this chocolate as its rich flavour was a great compliment for the croissants!
