Move over espresso, Norfolk-based Wild Knight Distillery has launched a new, sweeter rival for our martini affections. Aimed at lovers of luxury libations, its Chocolate Martini liqueur is rich and velvety, a delicious fusion of smooth vodka and deep chocolate flavours.
This Chocolate Martini liqueur uses premium organic Criollo cacao beans sourced from the lush Peruvian Amazon. Known for their complex fruity flavours and velvety texture, these beans are infused with Wild Knight’s own handcrafted vodka to create a beverage that’s both indulgent and versatile.
We’ve been sampling the liqueur and can vouch for its rich chocolate profile. It’s sweet but not overly so. With a surprisingly long and satisfying finish, it’s perfect for sipping chilled as an aperitif or served as an after-dinner delight, perhaps with petit fours or a slice of rich chocolate cake.

The martini, one of the most iconic cocktails, has a storied history that dates back to the late 19th century. Traditionally a simple mix of gin and vermouth, the martini has evolved over the decades, spawning countless variations that cater to every palate.
The chocolate martini is a moreish twist on this classic, appealing to those who seek a dessert-like indulgence in their cocktail glass. Wild Knight’s interpretation captures the essence of the martini’s elegance while adding a layer of decadent sweetness.
Joining the ranks of Wild Knight’s popular liqueurs, which include the best-selling Nelson’s Gold Caramel Vodka Liqueur and the robust Espresso Martini, the Chocolate Martini liqueur is gluten and allergen-free, with a 20% ABV.
Wild Knight Chocolate Martini is available online at the distillery’s website, priced at £32.
