The perfect chocolate

According to the Scotsman, the Scotch Whisky Experience has engaged in a little joint venture with Edinburgh chocolatier Coco Chocolate with the aim to create the perfect chocolate to go with a glass of whisky. Whether this is possible or not – I personally think certain chocolates go better with certain whisky – I like the idea, and may have to head over there and see if I can pick some up for a review.

I’d also like to take this opportunity to recommend a visit to the Scotch Whisky Experience. One could easily assume that they are a bit of a tourist trap, much due to their location right in the middle of the tourist ghetto, but their selection of whisky for sale both in the shop and bar is impressive and the staff is knowledgeable. The tour itself is perhaps mainly aimed at an audience with little prior knowledge of whisky, but still enjoyable.
