Our bar of the week is as intense, dark, and brooding as a French New Wave film star; you can almost imagine it breakfasting on cigarettes and coffee after a beat poetry all-nighter.  From French maker Valrhona, Abinao is an 85% dark chocolate made from African cacao.  It features a smooth, silky mouthfeel and meaty hints of raw coconut that sharpen into lingering, oaky tannins. 

Be sure to come by on Saturday, October 1, to try Valrhona's Abinao--especially if you've been up all night!
