The first matcha flavor in the history of The Chocolate is a two-layer structure in which matcha chocolate and dark chocolate are layered. It melts slowly in the mouth and spreads the double bitterness and rich flavor of matcha and cacao. It is rich and rich, but the sweetness is modest and the taste is sharp.

Matcha chocolate is often combined with milk chocolate or white chocolate and has a strong sweetness, and the combination with bitter chocolate is a little unusual. Not only matcha lovers, but also those who haven't often chosen matcha chocolate in the bitter chocolate group should definitely try it.
