Here’s the line-up…

The Mead Desire
The Chocolate  Tango
Dark cherry and plum notes in Tango’s 67% blend of Madagascar’s Sambirano Valley and Ghana cacaos accentuate the black current, black cherry and blueberries in the mead, and the high cocoa-butter content in Tango softens and balances Desire’s acidity.

The Mead Mischief
The Chocolate Araguani
Cocoa, raspberry and pear notes in Araguani’s dark 72% Venezuelan cacao soften and broaden Mischief’s berry and black cherry flavor, creating in a huge chocolate taste.

The Mead Flirt
The Chocolate Jivara
Complex caramel notes in Jivara’s 40% African blend milk chocolate blend balance the acidity and maltiness of the Flirt’s bright apricot flavor. Imagine of baked apricots drizzled in butter caramel.

The Mead Kamasumatra
The Chocolate Nyangbo
The deep fudgy chocolatiness of Nyangbo’s 68% Ghana cacao smooths Kamasumatra’s powerful coffee and vanilla flavors, resulting in a deep round mocha coffee experience.

The Mead Utopian
The Chocolate Live Wire Truffle
This complex truffle, made from red currants, rare Tasmanian Leatherwood honey, chilis, and Malbec Grappa in 67% Sambirano Valley cacao provides a rich fullness that only builds further with the cognac notes of this precious mead. The combination is an extraordinary tasting experience.
