The chocolate brand "Meiji The Chocolate" has been renewed. Four new flavors with redesigned packaging are on sale from the end of September.
New Meiji The Chocolate
There are four types in the lineup: Venezuela, Brazil, Peru, and Dominica. All contents are 50g (1.76oz) and the price is 220 yen (excluding tax).
The previous series had various cacao content, but this time all four types are unified with 70% cacao. It is easier to feel the difference in aroma and taste that differs depending on the production area.

Venezuelan cacao 70
The package color is blue. The characteristic of the cacao used is "Natti".

Brazilian cacao 70
The package color is yellow. The characteristic of cacao is "fruity".
A flavor with a refreshing citrus aroma and acidity. You can enjoy the sharpness combined with the bitterness. The lingering feeling of warmth is also impressive.
Peruvian cacao 70
The package color is red. The characteristic of the cacao used is "floral".
A flavor with a delicate sweet scent reminiscent of flower nectar. A gorgeous yet tranquil taste with a slight astringency that creates depth.
Dominican Republic Cacao 70
The package color is green, and the characteristic of the cacao used is "spicy".
Spicy does not have a harsh spiciness or aroma, but rather the most peculiar impression of the four. You can enjoy a good balance of acidity, richness, and umami.
Meiji The Chocolate, where you can enjoy not only sweetness and bitterness, but also deep flavors and differences. Please enjoy it with hot coffee or tea in the cool season.
