Iain Burnett Highland Chocolatier has unveiled a sweet new development in Scottish tourism, with the launch of chocolate tasting ‘flights’.

The first experience of its kind in the UK, Master Chocolatier Iain Burnett has developed a unique new range of interactive, audio-guided tastings as an introduction to his award-winning range of handmade chocolate truffles.

Offering a fun and informative insight into the varied tastes and textures of top-quality artisan chocolate, Iain Burnett Highland Chocolatier’s bespoke tasting flights will be available for chocolate lovers to sample in his Chocolate Lounge in Grandtully, Perthshire, or to take home to enjoy via an audio link.

Already popular in the wine and whisky industries, tasting flights offer a unique way to sample a range of different varieties and flavours in one session. 

As visitors sit down to sample a ‘flight’ of Iain Burnett’s award-winning chocolates skilfully presented on a tasting mat, the listener is given an informative view of the Master Chocolatier’s experience as an acclaimed truffle specialist, followed by staged insights into five very different artisan chocolates.

Iain, who established his eponymous family business in 2005, hopes the uniqueness of his Chocolate Tasting Flights will help to boost tourism in Highland Perthshire.

Iain Burnett Highland Chocolatier’s new Chocolate Tasting Flights can be enjoyed in Grandtully, priced at £15 per person, or ordered online to be enjoyed at home for £21.95 based on two people sharing. Chocolate Tasting Flight sets include Velvet Truffles, a tasting mat and audio guide link.
