Well we've had watch-fi, bourbon-fi, knife-fi and some others.

What's the best chocolate in the world? I've just had some swiss chocolate (I forget the brand) which rich and smooth and beautiful. I don't like the oversweet consumer chocolate that dominates today's supermarkets as much as I do REAL chocolate (>85% cocoa).

So what's the best chocolate in the world? where do the beans come from?

I do not know which brand is best, but I prefer Semi-Sweet over Milk Chocolate any day.
Much more intense chocolate flavor

Mmmmmm..... chocolate.... *drool*

I will have to go with dark chocolate, love that touch of bitterness (or is it sweetness) with my coco.

To avoid a thread battle by reviving those old threads, I'm just going to post here.

In the States, I've always been somewhat partial to Godiva -- it's so rich and it has a certain flavor to it. It's the only chocolate company with a signature taste that really sticks out in my mind.

In Japan, there's a "nama choco" company in Hokkaido that is absolutely amazing. That company's name is Royce' (the apostrophe is strange and I don't understand why it's included in the company name, but it's there nonetheless). Namachoco is a style of chocolate that is very soft and should be kept refrigerated. It is typically eaten with a small plastic fork and when you place it in your mouth you are treated to a burst of cool chocolate goodness as it languidly melts in your mouth. It's a winning combination of texture and richness.

When I need a chocolate fix, I usually opt for Tirol chocolates (pronounced chi-ro-ru). These are little squares that you can find in most any Japanese convenience store. Their trademark coffee caramel chocolate is awesome. I could eat a whole box of those by myself in one sitting, if given the opportunity.

I'm going to go with a local chocolate shop:

If you are in Nottingham (in the UK) check this little place out - it is off Market Square in the City Centre. The chocolates are fantastic, not like the mass produced crap you can buy in supermarkets, etc.

It's such a small outfit that they don't take credit cards! Oh the good old days.

I've tried many, and I always come back to the British made Cadburys.
