Green Tea Kit Kats from Japan

Over the past year and a half World of Snacks has been seeking out the best snacks from around the world.  We’ve sample cookies, cakes, chocolates, chips, and candies from 34 different countries.  At the beginning of 2014 we launched our international snack store and began selling candy from England online. Each month since we’ve expanded our selection to include a new country. Last month we started selling Mexican Snacks online.

The country that we are most excited about adding to our inventory is Japan and beginning next month we will offer a very limited run of Japanese snacks for sale online.  What will these snacks be?  Japanese Kit Kats!  Although we are going to expand to include a larger range of snacks from Japan in just a few weeks we will launch our Japanese Kit Kat store and being selling these nearly impossible to find flavors here in the US with shipping around the world.

If you are one of the thousands of snack enthusiasts that keep up with our blog you’ll remember we’ve reviewed a few unique Japanese Kit Kats.   Our favorite so far is the Vanilla Ice Cream Kit Kat. Unfortunately we will not offer this exact flavor for sale at the current time but we will offer 15 others!  One of the flavors of Japanese Kit Kats that will be sold here in the US in our store is the Green Tea Kit Kat.  So let’s take a closer look at this foreign flavor.

To keep things affordable and to be able to offer a variety of flavors, our store will only launch with individual mini Kit Kats from Japan for sale.  Our reviewed snack from Japan tonight is one such item.  The packaging of the Green Tea Kit Kat is green, with a gold foil trim on each end.  The Nestle Kit Kat Logo is their trademark red and there are some Japanese charters on the package.  The larger bag this version comes in is similar but has an overview of a cup of hot green tea.  It’s not a review unless we do a taste test, so let’s sample the Green Tea Kit Kat from Japan!

Although melted- Still very tasty!

So far we’ve been very pleased with all the flavors of Kit Kats we’ve encountered, including a unique Pumpkin Pudding Kit Kat.  So even though none of our tasters were green tea fans we were all eager to sample this snack.  The Green Tea Kit Kat did not disappoint us.  The first bite is a little confusing, smooth, creamy, and full of tea flavor.  The second bite brings it altogether and you begin to understand the undertones of the flavors.  This Japanese snack’s flavor is rather sophisticated and a little addicting.  Our taste test panel included a variety of age groups and all agreed, the Green Tea Kit Kat from Japan is awesome! 

"The second bite brings it altogether and you begin to understand the undertones of the flavors. "

So there you have it.   In the next few weeks we will launch our Online Japanese Kit Kat store with 15 flavors and expand to include other snacks from Japan shortly after.  If you’d like to be invited to a sneak peak prior to our official grand opening, be sure to leave your details the right.  As always, keep on snacking world!
