Perfect after-dinner guest

- Published: 01 November, 2009

Launched last year, Summerdown Pure Mint could be a perfect complement with tea or coffee, following Christmas and/or Boxing Day dinner.

The high-quality 200g box of chocolates contains 36 thin crispy mints. Each one is made with a thin layer of rich dark chocolate, fine textured granules and flavoured with Summerdown's very unusual pure English peppermint oil.

The chocolates break with a snap and are said to have a cool, lingering taste. Summerdown said it has re-learned lost skills from the US to reintroduce traditional Black Mitcham peppermint to the UK, combining this knowledge with the latest technology at its Hampshire Downs farm.
