I will review the customer service and the chocolate selection: I love dark chocolate and was excited to see so many dark chocolate varieties. There was dark chocolate with chai spice, cardammon, ginger, hazelnut, burnt caramel, rocky road, orange, turkish delight, some kinda licorice and a whole lot of others I cannot remember. Each variety came singly in one box or bag. With so many choices, I wanted to try them all but was never offered samples.And I certainly could not justify spending 100 dollars on chocolate just to try it. Chocolate that I might not like. I asked if a sampler bag or box was available but was redirected to containers of mixed milk and dark chocolate bites or the tables with the usual dark chocolate varieties. The glass case near the register also had the usual varieties except for dark chocolate with ginger or hazelnut. I tried to explain to the attendant that I was looking for varieties I could not get at home. The attendant seemed annoyed and said "they're all dark chocolate." At that point I gave up because she either did not understand or could not understand that I wanted dark chocolate varieties not available where I live. A friend brought me to Whistlers because she thought it would be a nice treat for a tourist. I was disappointed because there was no way for me to try or buy all of the various dark chocolate combinations without spending a lot of money. In the end, my friend bought me some dark chocolate with chai spice, some with ginger (which I hated) and some with hazelnut. I had hoped to find new dark chocolate combos to take home for myself and as souvenirs but those expectations were quickly squashed by inflexible marketing.
