Chocolate with matcha

by Tom on January 23rd, 2008

Picture 3 Australians crowded around a table.  One is studying Kanji, another is studying Japanese grammar and the third is studying the Japanese Lonely Planet.  Out comes a packet of this chocolate with macha and you can probably guess what happened.

Our analysis was short and sweet.  One said “great”, one said 8 out of 10, and the other just kept eating away.  The overall opinion was very good.  For a weird concept like a sandwich of chocolate containing a layer of macha (green tea) flavoured chocolate, I was nicely surprised. 

Of course most of the flavour was actually ordinary chocolate but you definitely got a hint of the macha along the way.  It made me wonder what macha chocolate would be like by itself.  I put that wondering to work and I hope we’ll all have some answers soon.
