I’m a barista and a chocolate connoisseur- this chocolate is NEXT LEVEL. Rich dark delicious thick did I mention dark? This ain’t no Swiss miss just add hot water. This is real gourmet cocoa this is what the royalty of the Olmecs drank. When the ancient Olmecs drank chocolate, it was very thick due to the natural methods of grinding the cacao beans and virtually no amount of processing like we have today, so I very much appreciate the authenticity.No ones going to blame you if you can’t handle it, it might just be too rich for those who are used to mom’s Swiss miss. I did agree with other reviews it doesn’t dissolve, but I fixed that by mixing a bit of boiling water, once it became a chocolate syrup I added steamed milk and topped with Hammonds gourmet marshmallows, and sprinkled some cinnamon for that real Mexican cocoa experience!

it tastes wonderful in my smoothie. gives me more energy.

I love a good cup of hot chocolate, but try to limit my sugar intake. I liked that this mix was lower in sugar, but without fake sweeteners (which all taste weird to me). Overall, it's very delicious--rich and dark and chocolatey, just as you want in a cocoa that's called "double dark." The only problem is, as many have noted, it does not mix well.I've tried a couple of methods, but had no success. I first made the cocoa in the prescribed ratio (I wanted less than a cup, so did 2/3 of a cup of milk with 2 tablespoons), putting the powder into the milk and stirring it up. It was very rich, and when I got to the bottom of the cup there was a lot of residue at the bottom. However, unlike a lot of cocoas, the "residue" here wasn't grit, but lumps of actual melted chocolate which had fallen to the bottom. Delicious, but annoying.The next time I made it, I thought I'd put less of the powder in, so 2/3 of a cup of liquid and 1 tablespoon, hoping to give the mix a better chance of integrating. I began by mixing up a tiny bit of very-hot milk with the powder until it looked very dissolved and incorporated, and then I poured in the rest of the milk and stirred it around.There was still a lot of chocolate at the bottom.So. It's absolutely yummy, and a little even goes a long way, but when you get to the end you'll want to have a spoon handy.

Pretty good, but not quite what I'd hoped for.

My favorite hot chocolate mix. I make mochas with it – divine!

I was a bit skeptical after reading some of the reviews, but as one reviewer put it, it comes down to personal taste. For me it checked all of the boxes: Not overly sweet - lightly sweetened. Dark cocoa flavor. Healthy ingredients. It definitely has a dark cocoa flavor, which I loved.Unlike other reviewers, I had no problem mixing it and just followed the instructions. I heated up the milk, added 3 tablespoons of the cocoa powder mix, and stirred. It mixed perfectly.

Taste terrible, hard to dissolve.

Absolutely DELICIOUS!!!I love this dark chocolate mix.I make it with 1/3 milk, 1/3 half /half, 1/3 hot water. A little cloves and power whisk. It is so very satisfying.
