Palette d'Or Brings Whiskey and Chocolate Together for Valentine's 2026

As Valentine’s Day 2026 approaches, the renowned chocolatier Palette d'Or, founded by chef Shunsuke Saegusa in 2004, is set to delight chocolate lovers across Japan with a new collection of whiskey-infused chocolates. Known for their deep commitment to the essence of cacao, Palette d'Or’s latest offering is poised to take the chocolate experience to new heights by pairing it with the aromatic and complex notes of whiskey.

A Unique Marriage of Flavors

Palette d'Or's collection features three distinct types of whiskey chocolates, each designed to highlight the flavors of whiskey through gourmet chocolate. The selection categorizes the chocolates into “The World’s Five Major Whiskeys”, “Japanese Craft Whiskey”, and “Japanese Whiskey Collection”, each crafted to enhance the natural characteristics of both the whiskey and the chocolate.

Among these exquisite creations, the Japanese Craft Whiskey Chocolate stands out for its bold and original flavors. Notable highlights include whisky aged on Yakushima Island, boasting the rich flavors derived from Mount Komagatake's malt, as well as the distinctive smokiness of Akkeshi whisky, characterized by its powerful peat aroma. This collection serves as a perfect gift for whiskey enthusiasts, promising a unique tasting experience.

The moment when the rich aroma of whiskey meets the flavors of handmade chocolate created from carefully selected cacao beans is nothing short of magical. Each bite melts in your mouth, leaving a beautiful aftertaste that fills even the quietest moments with exquisite delight. Palette d'Or encourages everyone to elevate their daily routine with this utterly captivating whiskey chocolate experience. Each item may vary depending on the event location.
