Not for those with timid taste buds, this assortment stands as a signature of Chuao's chocolate artistry. These bonbons are perky enough to pair with peppery drams such as Talisker or Glenmorangie's Astar.  Picante provides an excellent match to many spicy fruity scotches.  We have included the Firecracker Truffle because it provides a mouth sensation that is not to be missed.  Our recommendation is to enjoy Firecracker by itself at the end of any tasting session. Gran Cacao rounds out this collection with a wonderfully luxurious chocolate treat.

Picante  

Candela

A spicy raisin fondue swirls with cabernet infused caramel for a luxuriantly gooey filling.  This dark chocolate bonbon is exquisite with Aberlour a'bunadh & Alec Bradley Tempus Centuria cigar.

 Smoky chipotle chile spices up a delicious macadamia nut praline.  This beautiful confection complements the sophisticated 21 year old Auchentoshan and draws even more smoke out of the Ardbeg Uigeadail.  It is also superb with a Padron 1964 Anniversary Series cigar.

Firecracker Truffle

Gran Cacao 

Chipotle chile buried in a chocolatey fudge provides the zip while a layer of popping candy provides the zing.  "Must Try" fireworks for the mouth.

 

Creamy bittersweet ganache covered with rich 73% cacao provides for a lavish treat with just about any scotch, but is absolutely divine with a 24 year old Brora or Ashton VSG Corona Gorda cigar.
