I had all but forgotten this little box of dark chocolate absinthe truffles and decided to open them up tonight.
They’re about a year (or more!) old, so I’m guessing that they would’ve been better fresh, but the dark chocolate was appropriately sharp in flavour and the insides were a little sugar-gritty. That’s probably due to them being a bit old. I didn’t notice anything that struck me specifically of absinthe, but there was a light alcohol flavour.
I may have to order some absinthe chocolates to get a better taste of them in a fresher state.
Which chocolates were they? The La Fee chocolates, I assume?
I assume they were probably associated with La Fee in some way, as they were a freebie from eAbsinthe a while ago.
I’d like to try another make sometime, definitely.
