This Handmade Halva Cocoa by Argoudelis left me confused… Can’t deny, the taste and the texture seemed just great. It was even hard to stop myself from eating more and more of this halva. It was not too sweet, quite bitter and filled with good cocoa powder, which made this treat even more enjoyable.
But… after 5 or 10 minutes I realized that I feel in my throat some unpleasant aftertaste, remindful of that of old… oil. I don‘t know, should I blame bad storage conditions or materials of the can, but such side effect just spoiled all deliciousness of this halva. So I understand that I would like to try it again, before making my final verdict.
But at the moment I may give to Handmade Halva Cocoa by Argoudelis only an averge rating, despite the fact that it could be worth of even five stars…
