Casa Dragones Tequila Pairs Up With Dandelion Chocolate

Casa Dragones Tequilas has teamed up with Dandelion Chocolate to create a perfect pairing, just in time for Valentine’s Day. The new offering from the spirits purveyor takes their long-aged 100% Blue Agave silver sipping Tequila and packages it with three distinct chocolates.

The Casa Dragones Tequila and Dandelion Chocolate Pairing features the master blended joven tequila in a signature blue gift box, and a packaged set of single origin chocolates, sourced from Belize, Colombia, and Ecuador. 

The Casa Dragones Joven and Dandelion Chocolate pairing notes are as follows:

Maya Mountain, Belize – 2018 Batch 1

This chocolate pairing with Casa Dragones Joven packs a tropical punch. Delicate notes of fresh pear and citrus aroma linger on your palate, bringing forward the buttery mango and green banana characteristics of the chocolate, leaving a rich, and unsweetened cacao finish.

Costa Esmeraldas, Ecuador – 2018 Batch 1

The sweetness of the chocolate paired with Casa Dragones Joven brings a bright note of satsuma or tart cherry, with a beautiful herbal bouquet; at times it is juniper, at other times, anise, and always a bit of green grass. The finish leaves a warm note of sweet cream.

Tumaco, Colombia – 2017 Batch 2

A sip of Casa Dragones Joven brings out the savory spices in the chocolate, such as cinnamon, black pepper, and cayenne. On the finish, the pairing delivers a sweetness, roastiness, and slight bitterness that is reminiscent of the crema of a freshly pulled espresso.    

The gift pack is currently on sale via Mel & Rose or Caskers and retalis for between $280 and $320.

If your significant other is more of a Bourbon lover, Woodford Reserve has partnered with award-winning chocolatier Phillip Ashley Chocolates to showcase the harmonious pairing between Woodford Reserve Double Oaked Bourbon and chocolate.

If they aren’t into the sweet stuff, Fireball has released their answer to Hallmark’s most romantic date, heart-shaped Valentine’s Day boxes filled with Whiskey shooters that exclaim “Chocolate Is For Amateurs.”
