Cocoa Mill Chocolate Company 786 North Lee Highway, Lexington, VA 24450

"Received a gift box and the chocolates are decadent, each piece was so special! I was delighted and thrilled to receive a box for Christmas !"

"This place used to be amazing, but in the past decade it's really gone downhill. It's obvious they make their chocolate differently, or are using cheaper/inferior ingredients. I got my daughter what were supposed to be like chewy licorice whips (like twizzlers;) they were rock hard. She couldn't eat them and I almost yanked a filling out trying to bite one. The "champagne" cordials were expensive; I was willing to spend the money because their chocolate used to be really good, but I ate ONE of the candies and marched back in for a refund. There was nothing even REMOTELY champagne-like, they tasted EXACTLY like stale m&ms filled with purple sweet tarts: artificial, medicinal and icky. I gave 2 stars instead of 1 because I have fond memories of how good they were 10-15 years ago. For now though if I desire stale, mediocre chocolate I'll go to Walmart for a fraction of the price and get a box of Whitman's or Russell Stovers."

"I love chocolate. I know chocolate. These folks make the best chocolate I've ever had in my life. I'm partial to their plain dark bars or bark, but their truffles are amazing as well. My one regret is not having discovered them sooner."

"The candy is amazing. Best truffles I have had. They truly are one of the best chocolate makers. There's a reason they have awards! You can also order online if you can't make it in store. I stock up when I'm in the area and order online when I can't."

"Custom orders, custom quantities ... they're so easy to work with! I've purchased chocolate hearts with individual bags for Valentine's classroom gifts, special 4-piece boxes for client giveaways, and more. We splurge on ourselves sometimes, too. This chocolate is worth every dime and the people are five-star, too!"
