Kshocolât Chilli Almonds


I was given these to try as they apparently have an interesting flavour. The packet describes them as a whole almond, dusted in chilli powder and coated in milk chocolate. They certainly sound like a taste experience and having now had one I can confirm they really are an ‘experience’.

Placing the chocolate in my mouth, the first taste is that of good quality milk chocolate delicately beginning to melt. Taking a first chew there is no noticeable chilli, just the flavours almond and chocolate. Then upon further chewing the subtle hint of chilli starts to come through. Then a stronger chilli sensation appears, and suddenly out of nowhere somebody threw a Molotov cocktail into my mouth, and I had to run for water screaming “Fire, Fire, Fire!!!!” Oh my, how they burn.
