Summerdown Chocolate Peppermint Candies

These are peppermint candies with a plus. They're made by Summerdown, which also happens to be the third-generation farm in Hampshire, in the UK, that grows the Black Mitcham peppermint that flavors them. Black Mitcham is an heirloom peppermint that was common in England a century ago, but rare today. The mint is so fresh and vibrant within the dark chocolate coating that the candies practically hum.

The mint is paired with chocolate two ways. First are the creams (illustrated): a thin chocolate shell covers an oozy, woozy peppermint cream. Second are the crisps: thin, mint-infused chocolate wafers that snap between your teeth.
