Japanese Flavors of KitKat

Matcha Latte
The Matcha latte KitKat has a unique, creamy taste, blending the earthy, slightly bitter notes of matcha green tea with the smooth, sweet richness of Japanese milk.
Hokkaido Strawberry & Adzuki Bean
From Hokkaido, of course, Hokkaido Strawberry & Adzuki Bean KitKats combines the sweet, tart flavor of ripe strawberries with the nutty, mildly sweet taste of adzuki beans, creating a harmonious fusion.
Peach KitKat
The sweet taste of peach is packed inside a simple KitKat. This makes a great snack for an outdoor picnic as it is very popular in the sunny regions of Japan's southern island.
Tokyo Banana
These aren’t actual bananas. A Tokyo Banana is a popular Japanese sponge cake filled with creamy banana custard. This KitKat expertly recreates the cream and fruity taste.
Crème Brûlée Kit Kat
The Crème Brûlée KitKat tastes like a rich, smooth custard base topped with a contrasting layer of hard caramel, offering a sweet, creamy flavor with a slightly burnt sugar finish.
Amaou Strawberry
Known as the ‘King of Japanese Strawberries’, Amaou strawberries are juicy and incredibly sweet, with a vibrant, slightly tart edge. They have a deep, aromatic flavor, distilled in the KitKat.
Kobe Pudding
The Kobe pudding KitKat offers a luxurious, creamy texture with a rich, milky flavor, subtly enhanced by caramel undertones.
Yuzu Sake
These are non-alcoholic, with the Yuzu sake taste combining the tart, citrusy notes of yuzu fruit with the sweet profile of sake.
Wasabi
Famous all over the world, wasabi is known for its spicy flavor profile. But with just a dash in these KitKat bars, you can taste the mild undertones of the wasabi plant.
