Taste test: This box contained many, many miniaturized Charleston Chew bars, and it was a great way to repackage a classic taste.
Some of the great things about a regular huge Charlestown Chew are the size of the bar, the chewiness and the flavor. The only major downside is that the chocolate coating doesn't stretch the way the nougat inside does, so when you take a bite (and stretch a portion of the bar), the chocolate can break apart and sometimes falls off in pieces. That wasn't a problem with the mini ones, since they were small enough to fit the entire bar in the mouth. Though smaller, the mini bars were indeed quite chewy.

Smell test: Same as a regular Charlestown Chew.
From the package: “Chewy flavored nougat with a delicious chocolatey coating” ... “Charleston Chew Candy was born during one of America's most fun-filled decades ... The Roaring 20's! Named after the popular dance craze at the time, Charleston Chew has grown to become a household name for millions of Americans.”
