Sad to see Schmidt go. They were nice.
Not at the level of the fancy-pants truffles, but the single-origin chocolate from Venezuela (eek! Commie, etc...) is mighty nice...
Chocolates El Rey chocolate premium y gourmet | with the best chocolate, cacao, dark chocolate in Venezuela
The dark stuff is very smooth. Delicate and nutty - not sharp and acrid like so much >70% cacao you get elsewhere.
For domestic (US) stunt chocolate, Vosges is fun. Bacon or green olive truffles!!!
