It sounds to me like you got a bad batch! I would give the chocolates another try, and then base my opinion off that. Check for an expiration date; maybe they had expired.

Then, when I bit into a few nibs, my mouth and nose was literally FILLED with the strong flavor and odor of alcohol. Yes, I tasted the earthiness, nuttiness, and interesting bitterness of the nibs, but also an overwhelming taste of alcohol. Is this normal, or did I most likely get a bad batch? Thanks!

I love it when you see a PR person (or in this case a company VP) try to work over a blogger. Ha! I love it when you see a PR person (or in this case a company VP) try to work over a blogger.

It's REALLY good and totally worth the price. I think it's a good mix of crunch and smooth, and also the dark, milk, and white chocolates seem to mix together and form a whole new chocolate. It's fair that some people have different tastes than others, but this chocolate is meant for more adventurous people. I’ve actually had this chocolate!
