Guinness Dark Chocolate Bar - 90g

Guinness is a pub name first, and this bar is what happens when that name turns up on the chocolate shelf. In Britain it sits with the branded bars people buy as much for the label as for the snap, the sort of thing that gets handed over with a knowing look.

In Canada, people go looking for it because they remember it. The bar that lived in the fridge door. The one a mate brought round. Small, specific things are the ones you miss, and a black wrapper with a harp on it is about as specific as it gets.

It is a flat 90g bar, easy to post and easy to hide. Keep it somewhere cool and dry, away from the sun and the radiator, and it sits happily in the cupboard until someone finds it. Break it into squares with a coffee, or put it out after dinner and watch it vanish.

It tends to go into the basket alongside other things from home: a box of tea, a packet of biscuits, something for the person who keeps asking. Tuck it into a parcel for anyone who likes their chocolate dark and their branding obvious.
