Mezcal-Paired Artisanal Chocolates

These Fair-Trade Chocolates Are Crafted to Complement Mezcal

— November 13, 2021 — Lifestyle
Mezcal and chocolate are two items that are both highly synonymous with great beverage and snacking traditions of Mexico, which is precisely why artisanal chocolate maker Aranda Honest Chocolate has launched a line of fair-trade chocolates that are specifically designed to complement Mezcal Campante's line of high-quality mezcals.

The mezcal-paired Aranda Honest Chocolate offerings are available in three flavors, notably orange peel, mezcal ganache and sea salt. While the orange peel bars are designed to bring out the subtle citrus notes in the mezcal, the ganache bars aim to emphasize herbal cues of mint and eucalyptus, while the sea salt variant adds boldness to the chocolate while intensifying the smoky notes of the mezcal.

Available for purchase through both the Mezcal Campante and Aranda Honest Chocolate websites, these delectable fair-trade chocolates cost $7.99 each, and offer twin appeal to mezcal connoisseurs and chocolate lovers alike.
