I loaded up on the Costco/Neuhaus chocolate today. They had quite a lot at the Costco nearest me. Just opened a box ... now I need some regular Neuhaus so I can do a side-by-side comparison. Thanks again for the tip.

Did you do the wine and chocolate pairings at Waterford Estate in Stellenbosch? I had to after reading about it on FT. The rock salt chocolate was definitely among the more unusual flavors but it sure worked well with the cab they paired it with. We also had the masala chai dark chocolate with a shiraz and a lavender chocolate, unfortunately I can't remember what wine they paired that with.
