From Valrhona's site:

Alpaco %66:

Grand Cru de Terroir from Ecuador. Experience a chocolate combining strength and finesse: delicate floral flavors (jasmine, orange blossom)… lovingly wrapped in pronounced chocolate notes which make it both calm and powerful.

Taïnori %64

It gradually lets us discover the flavors of yellow fruit followed by notes of citrus and ending with a prolonged nutty note lingering on a background of cocoa and freshly baked bread

Has anyone tried these/found a source for them in the U.S.?

Formerly known as "Melange"
