Shoppers should approach these fine markets well-informed about how to eat delicacies. With a keen sense for the public interest, the Tribune's journalist investigated Potomac chocolate's table at this past Saturday's market. Potomac Chocolate is a one-person, bean-to-bar fine dark chocolate maker based in Woodbridge, Virginia. The Tribune's journalist bought a bar of Potomac Chocolate San Martin 70% chocolate. That bar has only two ingredients: "single origin dark chocolate made from cacao grown in the Amazonian highlands of Peru" and sugar. Here's the journalist's review of its taste: "oh, that's so good ...chomp chomp chomp .. umm ... chomp chomp ... gone all ready?" Owner and chocolate-maker Ben Rasmussen offers advice on tasting fine chocolate:
Unfortunately, Potomac Chocolate apparently will not be at this Friday's market. About seventy stores in the region sell Potomac Chocolate. The Tribune asked Potomac Chocolate owner Ben Rasmussen what store in Rosslyn sells his chocolate. With great shame, he acknowledged that none does. The Tribune's journalist demanded an explanation. Rasmussen countered with the question, "What store in Rosslyn would you like to see selling my chocolate?" The journalist's minded raced in silence and then he muttered some business boilerplate about wanting to do focus-group testing. After extensive interviews with Rosslyn residents, the answer is obvious: Miracles by Olympia.

Put the piece of chocolate on your tongue and let it slowly melt–don’t chew it. While it melts, pay attention to the texture: is it smooth, too smooth, a little gritty? Also, note how the flavor develops. Some chocolate is relatively simple, with one flavor throughout–while others will have distinct tastes at the beginning, middle and end. Is it fruity, bitter, earthy? Does it change as it melts? Does it linger after it’s gone?Eating fine food is like reading a fine news source: it must be savored. Remember that at this Friday's holiday market in Rosslyn.
