The I am familiar with Van Houten because it is produced one of my favorite drinks. I regularly bought their chocolate drink in cans whether it was hot or cold (depending on the season) when I lived in Japan. They also had a powdered chocolate that I had at my home there for my morning beverage. While I have seen their brand on products related to baking, it was my first time to see their chocolate bars in the supermarket.

| The ingredients list includes their statement that the chocolate contains at least 52% cacao. The info also states that this chocolate is produced in Indonesia. |
This was a good, enjoyable chocolate bar and one I wouldn't mind buying again. It is not labeled as a dark chocolate but the information on the package indicates it as a dark chocolate. While it also doesn't say that this is the 'bitter' variety, it states the chocolate as 'semi sweet' and has a slogan of "be bold, more cocoa" that basically classifies itself as a dark chocolate. It is not pricey for a 140g bar and will satisfy one's craving for a good dark chocolate.
