Best kept secret chocoloate.

This time I disagree with you. American chocolate is too greasy and too sweet.

The best chocolate I have ever tasted is from Peru. Southern Peru, in fact.

La Iberica chocolate is Peru's best kept secret, it is from Arequipa, in Southern Peru (the second biggest sity after Lima). It is the national chocolate, and for a good reason - it is delicious

I clued a Mercedesshop friend who was driving his 300SD through South America, and was traveling through South America, and he concurred:

(I will find the exact link)


Gotta run.

OMG where can I buy some! I need awsome chocolate now!


I never figured food chocolate would come from Japan, of all places.

I will suffer in silence with my stash of vintage Hawaiian chocolates, the only chocolate produced entirely in the US.

I won't tell my wife about this post...as she's Belgian and is a chocoholic as well. I have to say that I've never had better (or expensive) chocolate than Belgian chocolate.
