'[Kirkland Signature](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/marshmallow-crispy-cookies) Belgian Chocolates' are the newest [alcohol-chocolate fusion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/woodford-reserve-x-compartes) from the Kirkland brand. These chocolates come in a box of 75, with 15 chocolates in each of the five flavors. These five types are '[Porto](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/late-bottled-vintage),' 'Cognac,' 'Vodka,' 'Scotch Whisky,' and 'Irish Whisky.'

The bites are made of rich Belgian chocolate made right in Belgium, and the various liquors used to fill them are European-made fine liquors. The chocolates in the box with the lowest alcohol content feature an ABV of 0.7% while the highest feature an ABV of 1.8%.

These boxes are excellent for new drinkers to try a variety of alcohols to see which ones they like, or for avid drinkers to get a taste of quality chocolate mixed with some of their favorite beverages. One box of 75 Kirkland SIgnature Belgian Chocolates retails for $39.95 USD and is available for online or in-person purchase at participating Kirkland retailers.
