What chocolate is actually nice e these days?

All my favourite ones don't seem to taste very chocolatey any more, even my favourite M and S ones.

I don't eat very much chocolate any more because I find it disappointing.

I really want something that tastes great for Christmas, the sort of thing you can put on the table after a big meal so you can chat and drink coffee and eat chocolates.

Suggestions please!

Thanks, I will try this, although I had Hotel Chocolat in the past and was disappointed. Might have been a one off.

I've never noticed that Willie's stuff. I'll keep my eyes open.

Ritter is in Lidl, isn't it?

Monty bojangles, hotel chocolat or try an indie chocolate shop, the Chocolate Cafe in Lancashire is yummy. Not sure if they do deliveries as I was sent some by a friend.

Lindt is still great. DH loves Hotel Chocolat extra dark chocolate. I always get him a selection of their 3 for £10 bars for Christmas.
