There were a couple of boxes of fine chocolate that the wife took home last year. These were also given to her by her colleagues from their international offices as they often exchange souvenirs when they meet up in conferences or meetings. Again, we sort of forgot they were in storage as the chocolates in our refrigerator accumulated and we haven't had the time recently to check which ones might be expiring. This wasn't but we were curious about how this one looked like and tasted so we opened one.

The chocolate certainly did not disappoint. It was exquisite with the right mix of salty (from the sea salt) and sweet (from the caramel). These were pralines so each had fillings. The time in the refrigerator didn't diminish the taste though the texture was affected (hard fillings). The clincher, of course, was the truffles part. I haven't done some research on where these chocolates are available and how much they cost but these are definitely must buys even just for the tasting.
There's another one I will be writing about soon.
