I was quite intrigued by these small hives in front of Manufacture Jaeger Lecoultre buildings at our arrival... Now I can understand why ! As always, Jaeger Lecoultre Manufacture knows how to reward its customers. As a matter of fact, we receive a small b...

These chocolates are indeed delicious...

 
 By: bgillis : September 10th, 2012-10:06
in particular, the black ones with chunks of crispy almonds. Slurp ! Slurp ! :-) We do not have the chance to see any new pieces from the next collection. Jaeger Lecoultre is quite paranoid... Taking pictures during the visit was strictly prohibited. Best...
