i loved this one out of the 4 i tried the best - creamy, smooth, and melts in your mouth! surpringly, not anywhere near as bitter as the Eclat Noir, which surprisingly has a lower dark chocolate content but is much more bitter.

It's funny - out of all of the Noir bars, I expected to like this one the best. I was a bit shocked to see that it was my second least favourite from the line.

While tasting the four bars, I had purposely left this to the end of the line to taste. Having sampled a pretty good dark chocolate base in the other bars, I expected to encounter the same flavour in the straight-up, chocolate only bar. I was disappointed to say that I didn't. I feel like the chocolate in the chocolate-only bar was less complex and less flavourful then the bases used in the mix-in bars. That made me sad.

Chocolate shouldn't make a girl sad.

Damn you, Noir Intense. You deserve a fist shaking for your inability to live up to expectation.

This was truly a wonderful treat! I thought this would be too intense for me but it was extremely delicious and enjoyable. It was very creamy, smooth, sweet and really not bitter at all for the amount of cocoa in it. It was much better than the Eclat Noir (which was quite bitter) and would definitely choose this if purchasing chocolate. I really want to repeat how creamy, smooth, sweet and delicious this chocolate was for a dark chocolate. It really was.

I love chocolate so much I can't help but chew it. But, it was so good I chose to let it melt in my mouth, which is the way you are supposed to eat chocolate, and really found myself a little bit closer to heaven for a few minutes. I think even milk chocolate lovers would like this. It's a winner for Nestle!

If you like dark chocolate you will surely enjoy this. My boyfriend is absolutely in love with this chocolate!! It has a very unique taste, and I think I enjoyed it most one square at a time with a little bit of tea. The word intense describes it best I think. For those looking for something that will satisfy with just one square instead of the whole bar, I think you will really enjoy this delicious treat!

Sometimes the best flavour comes from the simplest food. This intense dark chocolate was perfect. The bittersweet chocolate is smooth and quickly melts in your mouth. It is probably the best dark chocolate out in the market without having to pay an arm and a leg for it. While the other 3 flavours were all special in their own way, this decadent dark chocolate is simply to die for. I highly recommend this to anyone who adores dark chocolate because you will not regret this purchase!

This definitely is the best dark chocolate I have ever tried. I am surprised that Nestle could make such a decadent and rich treat! It is high quality chocolate, I find better than any other Nestle pure chocolate that's out there.

For me something that makes the chocolate feel more special is the packaging. The gold foil on the inside makes me feel like I'm opening chocolate bar with the golden ticket from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory! Just a little bit of fun anticipation you get when you open a bar of chocolate... like when you were a kid!

Nutritionally it's not that bad either. 70% dark chocolate can give you endorphins -- and lifts your mood! Plus, it is way less processed than milk or white chocolate. Although all chocolate is high in calories, the bittersweetness of dark chocolate (especially I find from this particular one) makes you crave less and eat less of it in order to feel satisfied. This one was not too bitter and had more sweetness to it, which I particularly enjoyed. All the more reason to treat yourself!

I am a big fan of dark chocolate, and this is definitely the best I've ever tried! It doesn't have the same bite that other dark chocolates have. It's a bit sweeter and very rich and creamy. Certainly not as "intense" as others I've tried, which is a good thing because while I love dark chocolate some of the more intense ones are just too much. But this one is somehow perfect with the great bitterness you want from dark chocolate without being overwhelming.

I've always preferred milk chocolate over dark chocolate. That is, before I had a taste of Noir Intense. I was really surprised at how creamy and smooth it is, not to mention how delicious it tastes! This turned out to be my favourite of the Nestle Noir chocolates.

Personally, it isn't exactly what I would call "intense" in the usual sense. The flavour is different from your average dark chocolate. Definitely less bite, and a bit sweeter than others. To me, it is the perfect blend of creamy bittersweetness that makes Noir Intense one of the best chocolates I've ever tried.

I have always loved dark chocolate and only tolerated the other flavors. I've been through all the typical grocery brands and happened to have Hershey's Cacao Reserve (65%) on hand when I received the Nestle Noir Intense to try. To that point, I had found the Cacao Reserve one of the best dark chocolates for its price point.

I did a taste test comparison and was really surprised at the difference. While the Cacao Reserve had that characteristic twangy bitterness that most dark varieties feature, the Nestle Noir was so smooth and creamy textured without any aftertaste. It still has that intense cocoa flavoring that I love but without the mouth-puckering bite I expected. My husband, very much not a fan of dark chocolate, tried a piece and was so surprised he asked for seconds.

I still enjoy the Cacao Reserve, but will be eagerly searching for Nestle Noir the next time I need my chocolate fix! I absolutely recommend this treat for any dark chocolate lover, as well as anyone who claims not to like the flavor - you may change your mind when you try this product!

Like the Eclat Noir, 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 actually tried using it as a rich compliment with vanilla yoghurt and it really worked!
