Honestly, I expected more from Handmade Halva Almonds by Argoudelis… Its taste was quite good, but I had an impression that sweetness dominated too much. This halva was rich of whole almonds, but bitterness was too faint. And I was surprised that the texture of it was so crumbly. Truly, it was not an easy job to cut the nicely looking piece for the illustration photo.
The packaging of this halva was much better than the taste, which was obviously spoiled by some specific aftertaste (I guess it could come either from the oil used in production of this halva or from the metallic can).
It might be that you would love this Handmade Halva Almonds by Argoudelis, but you better try much superior Handmade Halva with Greek Pistachio Kernel made by the same producer.
