Sir Hans Sloane Chocolatier, London
We just ravaged a hamper of chocolates from Sir Hans Sloane in London. My friend Bill McCarrick, founder of the brand - sent over a hamper of chocolate for us to devour.We helped Bill and the Sir Hans Sloane team with the initial brand development years ago. It is still some of my favorite work. While the original design has changed a bit - the current branding looks good.
More importantly, the chocolate is now a favorite of H.M. King Juan Carlos of Spain and royalty all over Europe. The chocolate is the only chocolate that is conched in England. It is a 72 hour process that ensures the best quality.
In any case, my point in all of this is that it is the most excellent chocolate I have ever had. I am not a chocolate connoisseur by any means, but judging from the gold medals that Bill has accumulated in international shows - I would venture to say it is some of the world's finest chocolate product. What's more, the brand story behind the name Sir Hans Sloane is amazing - check it out on the website. He was a smart fellow.
Oh, and Bill is having a mold made with the agency MAMUS shield - so all of our clients will be partaking of this excellent product.
