Impact
Run by Englishman Patrick Aldred, & in the finest British tradition, an unbelievably nice guy making an incredibly vile product. A miscarriage of flavor.

Collection
Rum Coconut – pirated from a shipwreck off the coast of FLA
Blackberry Cinnamon Apple – ash cake
Banana Caramel – amusement park give-away
Pear Williams – waste of cacáo (if that’s what Callebaut is)
Maple Pecan – maybe Jacques Chirac was right: British agricultural suicide
Cocoa Rouge – bravo, but by any other standard merely passable
Espresso – finally... even if loud & viscous
Milk Fragola – considered a signature piece & would be except where’s the chocolate; fresh strawberries are better & easier to make
Sugar-Free Line – best part of the shop
Hazelnut Milk – narrow; greaseless slick paradox; bland
Vanilla Dark – foamy vanilla-fill shaving cream; mall material
Dark Truffle – decent, smoky rim
Corporate Options – jelly goo
