    Coffee and Candy
    Cashea S.

    Cute little candy store hidden near Broadway. The coffee was spot on and the pralines, while super sweet, were delicious. The lady working that day was super friendly. There is such a variety of candies to choose from and if you're looking for something quiet to take a break from the hustle and bustle of Broadway, this is it!

    I have been visiting Leon's since 2000 and have searched the world in search for a better Praline to no avail. Enjoy.

    What a cute shop! We went on a Saturday so we could do their chocolate tour. The guy who held the…read moretour (so sorry I forgot his name!) was very knowledgeable and knew his stuff! He obviously has been in the business a while. He made the tour easy to understand and walked us through the entire process. It's really awesome they make everything from scratch and using so few ingredients. You can really taste the quality of their chocolate. Sadly, they didn't have the grinding machines with the chocolate in them because they were out of the beans! They were having shipping issues with their stock. But we were able to taste a bit of everything they sold which was really cool. We picked up their dark and milk chocolate bar at the end of the tour. Highly recommend for a bit of fun!

    I've been on a bit of a chocolate binge lately and decided to stop by Olive and Sinclair Chocolate…read morewhile we were in town. Per some sources, they are the first bean to bar chocolate maker in Tennessee, and they even offer weekly factory tours, although I wasn't able to make it in time for one. Olive and Sinclair has a relatively small retail area. They have all of their products on display and more importantly, have tons of samples! I ended up trying basically everything. The chocolatier doesn't advertise where they source their cocoa from but I asked an employee and she said they switch it up all the time. Apparently the current batch is from Peru, which gives the chocolate a pretty neutral taste at the start but then transitions to a kind of sharper dried fruit taste. They also sell several types of caramels. The Ghost Pepper Caramel starts with the caramel sweetness. It's only a second or two later that some heats starts to show up. I'm not sure how much ghost pepper they actually use; the heat is a bit more than just a warmth, but isn't nearly to the point of being painful. The heat lingers for quite a while, enough that I had to wait a good five minutes before trying another caramel! Interestingly I think this one has the "cleanest" caramel taste, at least at the start before the pepper kicks in! The Duck Fat Caramel has similar sweet undertones but adds on a really savory and almost meaty element on top. The Sea Salt & Vinegar Caramel has a light vinegar scent. It starts with sweetness and a light tang, but then the vinegar gets stronger. It never gets to the point of tasting like a vinaigrette, but is quite noticeable. To be honest, I'm not a fan of any of the caramels. They are certainly unique and nice to try though! I ended up picking some of their more intriguing products - the Bourbon Nib Brittle and the Smoked Nib Brittle - for gifts. From what I tried in store, they're both exactly as the names imply: super bourbon forward sweet candy, and a surprisingly intense smoky sweet. Yum! Olive and Sinclair Chocolate is definitely a place to pick up some unique local gifts! I wish I had made it in time for one of their tours.
