If you're interested, Cost Plus World Market carries it. However, I wasn't
super-impressed with Hachez. The texture is supreme, the best I've had in a
chocolate, much, much better than Valrhona, if that gives you an idea. But
the flavour was lacking - washed-out and uninspiring, given the cocoa
solids percentage. Don't get me wrong, Hachez is very good, but IMHO it
should have been much better and relative to the competition you can get
greater chocolates by far.
