All contain Black Mitcham peppermint oil from their own farm in Hampshire.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n\u003cp id=\"speakable-definition\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUltimate Mint Collection\u003c\/strong\u003e is the gift box from the English mint farm Summerdown in Hampshire. Inside the 170-gram box are peppermint fondants, crisp thins, and dark and milk chocolate squares, all featuring peppermint oil distilled from their own fields.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eEach variety puts a different spin on the mint\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe dark chocolate squares bring the tart cocoa to the forefront, letting the mint drift coolly over it. With the milk chocolate squares, the same performance is softer and sweeter, a gentle introduction for those who find dark chocolate too intense. Such individually laid-out squares are known in the trade as napolitains, small bars in the size of an espresso cup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe filled fondants feature a soft, light center that melts on the tongue, leaving a lasting cooling sensation. The crisp thins, by contrast, rely on fine sugar particles that crunch audibly as they melt, giving the whole experience a lively rhythm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis creates a small tasting experience across the range in one box, from creamy to crunchy, from mild to tart. The mint remains the same throughout, only its stage changes, and it is precisely this recognizability that makes the box so well-rounded.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA gift box that saves you from having to choose\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you want to give mint chocolate as a gift, you don't have to choose between filled or plain here; the box offers both. This makes it a perfect small gift for hosts whose preferences you don't yet know, and a token of appreciation that needs no explanation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOn the coffee table, an open box can replace dessert, with each guest picking their preferred form. The dark chocolate squares go well with \u003ca href=\"\/en\/collections\/kaffee\"\u003ean after-dinner espresso\u003c\/a\u003e, the milk chocolate ones are better suited for afternoon tea, and experience shows the fondants are the first to disappear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnyone who falls in love with a single variety can find the larger boxes right next door, such as the \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/summerdown-puremint-chocolate-creams\"\u003ePeppermint Creams\u003c\/a\u003e with their fondant center or the crunchy \u003ca href=\"\/en\/products\/summerdown-puremint-chocolate-crisps\"\u003ePeppermint Crisps\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTwo chocolates, one oil from one estate\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor the dark pieces, Summerdown uses a strong, tart cocoa, and for the milk chocolate, a creamy recipe with milk powder and delicate sweetness. Both chocolates would be unremarkably good on their own; only the mint makes them unmistakable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe peppermint oil comes entirely from their own fields in Hampshire, where the heritage Black Mitcham variety is grown and distilled right on the estate. An oil with a traceable origin is a major exception in mint chocolate; bought-in flavorings with no known source are the norm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat is why all the varieties in this box taste related to one another; the cooling sensation begins and fades in the same way. It is the same signature in four different font sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe box for the gift table\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen unopened, the box keeps for about two years, so it can wait in the drawer for its occasion. As a gift, it works for everything from a host's invitation to an Advent plate, and as a supply for your own coffee table, it is perfect anyway.
