Has anyone tried Lukerchocolate from Colombia
tauted here:
with a lot of confusion about whether they grow Trinitario, Criollo, or neither.

A friend who lives in Colombia believes the new Trader Joe's 85% dark chocolate bar from Tumaco (pictured below) is actually Lukerchocolate which would make sense. Has anyone tried this bar and noticed a strange spicy taste that is not common with darkchocolate or perhaps the vanilla in this? I can't figure out where this almost anisey flavor comes from as I've never tasted cacao or vanilla that have this flavor naturally.

I'd love to hear peoples comments on this bar and if they've had the straight Luker bars too.
