Dark vs Milk: Which Chocolate Pairs Best with Bourbon?

Dark vs Milk: Which Chocolate Pairs Best with Bourbon?

Barbara Bostic

Both have merit, but here's the breakdown:

**Dark Chocolate (Royal Almond, Espresso Elegance)**  
- Highlights spice and oak  
- Best for older or smoky bourbons

**Milk Chocolate (Sapphire Blueberry, Divine Cherry)**  
- Softens the bite  
- Enhances sweeter bourbons or wheated varieties

Our Pick: Start with dark. End with milk. Or better yet, build a flight.
