Koko Black - CBD

Koko Black – Royal Arcade, Bourke Street Mall
Belgian Hot Chocolate

Served in a medium sized cup with a spider web pattern on top made out of thick choc syrup and cream on top of a thick mixtured froth with larger sized bubbles. But there could be a bit more of it. Now to the mixture. This is a café specialising in Hot Chocolates and the quality is absolutely marvellous. It is served at a perfectly hot temperature, and the mix is thick and very dark. It is a smooth, creamy and especially thick mixture, and that dark taste stays in the back of your mouth. The marvellous flavour stays consistent throughout (which means no choc shot), but gets thicker towards the end which is even better! My only minor criticism (And it is very minor indeed) is that some people might prefer some optional sugars served with it to counter the strong dark flavour.

Summary: A small store but with a big hitting taste. This Hot Chocolate is superb and I highly recommend it to any dark chocolate lover. Fraus, WATCH OUT!
