    This was my least favourite of the available flavours but the chocolate base of the bars does not disappoint. I found this to be the sweetest flavour but that is probably due to the blueberries. The acai was very subtle. Unfortunately, if the bar was not labelled, I would not guess that the little chunks of almonds are almonds. I would likely mistake it for another nut. I would not purchase this tablet chocolate bar in the future. I think their chocolate covered candy pieces that are also blueberry and acai is superior to the tablet form.

    I received a sample of this product courtesy of the Chickadvisor Product Review Club.

    As a participant in the ChickAdviser group I received this chocolate bar at no cost. Because it was a cold day I let the box sit to allow the chocolate to warm up. I opened the Blueberry Almond first figuring it would be among the flavours I preferred and was initially hit with a strong smell of blueberry flavour. I'm not certain that added to the experience.

    I have a thing about chocolate being too thin - Lindt does this with their bars, so it was nice that this was a little thicker, but somehow still missing that feeling of your teeth sinking into it. I didn't like the dried bits in the chocolate, which I understand are part of the experience, but generally I like my chocolate without mix or with nuts only. So that took away from my experience, having to use my tongue to pull bits out of my teeth.

    Finally the chocolate itself, while not overly sugary, is missing that slightly tart flavour you usually find with dark chocolate.

    Overall it's fine, but not my version of ideal.
