I am deciding which chocolate to bring in..

Callebaut 823NV milk (more expensive)or Van LeerBel Lactee Milk.

Callebaut 70-30-38NV (more expensive) or Van Leer Bel Noir 73% Dark

Cangeneral public really tell one is better than the other?

What do you plan to make with it? Is viscosity a factor?

For something like a bar, use NV every time - especially if it's a plain tasting bar. If it's for enrobing or recipe making, use the Van Leer...

You can immediately tell the difference when opening case of NV - the aroma is fuller and rounder, as is the taste
