As you can see by my reviews, I'm a huge fan of chocolate. I sample chocolates everywhere I visit around the world.
My expectations for Chocolats Privilege weren't high. Honestly, I was most interested in some of the Halloween novelties the store was selling. To my surprise, the shop carries a wide variety of truffles. The sheen on the truffles prove that the chocolate is well-tempered. And the flavors further prove that the chocolate makers at this shop know their flavor profiles.
We did pick up a 70% dark chocolate bar infused with green tea. The chocolate was fine (I tend toward fresh truffles rather than bars), but the tea was undetectable in the flavor.
While I'm a little suspicious of any chocolate boutique that sells so many truffles (I worry about automation and cost-cutting behind-the-scenes), Chocolats Privilege really does deliver with its flavors. I will absolutely return when I'm back in Montreal. The prices here are also excellent for what one gets.
