2 x Royal des Lys Advent Calendar 290g / 10.2 oz – 48 Dark Chocolates with Cognac, Brandy, Rum, Cointreau & Whisky

Description

Count down to Christmas with something a little more grown-up with 2 x Royal des Lys Advent Calendar 290g / 10.2 oz – two elegant advent calendars containing a total of 48 dark chocolate pralines filled with six different spirits.

Behind the 24 doors of each calendar is a dark chocolate with a liquid spirit centre, featuring Camus VSOP Cognac, Williams pear brandy, Kirsch cherry brandy, St James Rum, Cointreau and Label 5 Whisky.

The dark chocolate contains at least 51% cocoa solids, giving it enough richness and bitterness to balance the sweet liquid centres and the individual character of each spirit.

With two calendars, you can share the December countdown with someone else, give one as a gift and keep one, or simply enjoy 48 spirit-filled pralines in total.

Total net weight: 580g / 20.5 oz / 1.28 lb

Two Advent Calendars – 48 Chocolates in Total

Each calendar contains:

• 24 doors
• 24 spirit-filled dark chocolate pralines
• 290g / 10.2 oz

With this 2-pack you receive:

• 2 individual advent calendars
• 48 chocolates total
• 580g / 20.5 oz / 1.28 lb total

Each chocolate weighs approximately 12g / 0.4 oz.

Six Different Spirit Fillings

Across the calendars you'll find chocolates featuring six different spirits:

• Camus VSOP Cognac
• Williams Pear Brandy
• Kirsch Cherry Brandy
• St James Rum
• Cointreau
• Label 5 Whisky

The variety means each day brings a slightly different flavour rather than the same chocolate throughout December.

Camus VSOP Cognac

One of the fillings features Camus VSOP Cognac, bringing the warm, rounded and aromatic character associated with aged French cognac.

The dark chocolate works particularly well with the richer fruit and oak notes of cognac.

The recipe contains 1.44% Camus VSOP Cognac.

Williams Pear Brandy

Williams pear brandy brings a lighter and more fruit-forward character to the assortment.

Pear works beautifully with dark chocolate, creating a fresher contrast to the deeper whisky, rum and cognac varieties.

Kirsch Cherry Brandy

The selection also includes Kirsch, a clear cherry brandy.

Cherry and dark chocolate are a classic combination, with the fruitiness of the spirit adding brightness to the rich chocolate shell.

The combined brandy content in the recipe is listed at 1.21%.

St James Rum

Rum and dark chocolate are natural partners.

The St James Rum filling brings a warm, rounded character that fits particularly well into a winter chocolate assortment.

The recipe contains 0.95% St James Rum.

Cointreau

For a brighter flavour, the assortment includes chocolates filled with Cointreau, the famous orange liqueur.

Orange and dark chocolate work exceptionally well together, with citrus freshness cutting through the richness of the cocoa.

The recipe contains 0.85% Cointreau.

Label 5 Whisky

The sixth spirit is Label 5 Whisky.

Whisky gives the chocolate a deeper, warming character and works especially well with the slightly bitter notes of the dark chocolate coating.

The recipe contains 0.82% Label 5 Whisky.

Dark Chocolate with Minimum 51% Cocoa

The dark chocolate contains at least:

51% cocoa solids

That gives it a noticeably deeper flavour than an ordinary milk chocolate advent calendar.

The stronger cocoa character is especially important because it needs to balance:

• Sweet liquid fillings
• Cognac
• Brandy
• Rum
• Orange liqueur
• Whisky

The result is much closer to an after-dinner praline than a typical children's advent-calendar chocolate.

An Advent Calendar for Adults

This is very much an adult Christmas calendar.

The pralines contain real alcoholic spirits, making these calendars a more sophisticated alternative to traditional advent calendars.

They are particularly suitable for:

• Dark chocolate lovers
• Spirit lovers
• Couples
• Christmas gifts
• Host gifts
• After-dinner treats
• Anyone who thinks advent calendars should improve with age

Contains alcohol and is not suitable for children.

Perfect for Couples

With two calendars, two people can count down to Christmas together without negotiating who gets today's chocolate.

One calendar each.

Twenty-four doors each.

No arguments required.

They also make a fun Christmas gift for couples who enjoy dark chocolate, whisky, cognac or liqueurs.

Give One & Keep One

This 2-pack also makes gift planning easy.

Give one calendar to:

• A friend
• Parent
• Partner
• Host
• Colleague
• Chocolate lover

and keep the second for yourself.

Technically both could be gifts.

We won't check.

Perfect After Dinner

Instead of opening the day's door first thing in the morning, Royal des Lys makes considerably more sense after dinner.

Pair the chocolates with:

• Coffee
• Espresso
• Tea
• Dessert
• A quiet December evening

The spirit fillings make each piece feel more like a small after-dinner praline than an ordinary advent-calendar sweet.

A Christmas Gift with a Difference

Royal des Lys is a particularly good choice when you want something more distinctive than a standard chocolate advent calendar.

Two calendars work especially well for:

• Couples
• Parents
• Friends
• Christmas hampers
• Corporate gifts
• Host gifts

The recipient gets something to enjoy throughout December rather than opening the entire gift at once.

Whether they actually wait for each day is another matter.
