Leonidas open stock redux

... continued from previous post:
The first testing out of the Leonidas package was wonderful, and now it's time to find out about the rest of the chocolates.
I'll add now that a lovely rainy afternoon, a little Jane Eyre, and a nice cup of coffee is another great way to enjoy these jewels.
  • Dark chocolate ganache: rich deep chocolate, smooth ganache, wonderful orange flavor
  • Europe: tasty rum filling, not too heavy on the rum
  • Carre´ croquant: needed a bit more croquant, but what was there tasted fine. Good in both dark and milk, with the dark tasting a bit better
  • Princess Enrobee´: wonderful combination of hazelnut nougat and dark chocolate!
  • Moka Dark: probably the best mocha ganache I've ever tasted
There you have it, dear readers. The entire selection. When you want to impress someone, this is definitely a brand to consider.
