The little squares are probably ideal for most people, because Noir Infini
delivers quite a whack. If you're interested in a real taste-test, you
should try 50g at a time, but for a quick chocolate "hit" when you need it,
the squares would probably work well. Noir Infini is the ultimate product
to satisfy a chocolate craving, and you only need a little bit. Nothing
else chocolate I've ever had comes even close on the satisfaction gained to
amount consumed ratio.

I have an Excel template, if you're really interested in getting serious in
terms of tasting and evaluating. It includes cells both for numerical
ratings and qualitative descriptions. It also includes a calculated
overall, based on sub-ratings. This is interesting to compare against your
stated overall (i.e. there's a calculated overall rating and another
overall rating that you can simply fill in) to see how much correlation
there is between your assessment of the chocolate in a particular area and
your overall opinion, or between your "objective" rating and your
"subjective" rating.
