Food editor mollydbu recently tried the viral Haute Chocolate in Vail. Here’s her take on if it’s worth it 👀

“The Four Seasons Vail has become famous for its Haute Chocolate, which is served exclusively at the Remedy Bar on its main floor. The pricy indulgence has been posted all over social media, making me wonder: Is it worth the hype — and the $25 price tag?

While there’s definitely the tourist/resort town upcharge in play, the Haute Chocolate is also made with high-quality ingredients.

The chocolate is Valrhona, a premium French brand known for making some of the best chocolate available. The marshmallow is housemade, as is the chocolate tuille that sits atop the mug — and that mug is pretty big, so you’re getting a generous portion. But still...

If you’re prone to FOMO — then, yes. By all means, experience this at least once. A server told me the bar serves up to 900 mugs of its famous cocoa a day during peak season — that’s $22,500 of Haute Chocolate.

Phones were out and ready to capture video of the presentation, as a server placed each tuille-topped mug down. The large marshmallow was perched on top of the chocolate tuille, and as the server poured the hot cocoa from a French hot chocolate pot with a very narrow spout, the tuille melted, and the marshmallow plopped into the liquid.

The whole process took around forty seconds, which led to one big problem with this hot chocolate experience: The resulting beverage was barely hot.”
