You can enjoy the warm taste of "kinako mochi" with a warm latte !? I found a powdered drink that collaborated with the popular flavor of Tyrolean chocolate and bought it.
I bought two products, "Tirol Choco x Nitto Black Tea Kinako Latte" and "Tirol Chocolate x Nitto Black Tea Matcha Latte". They are said to have the image of "kinako mochi" and "matcha mochi" of Tyrolean chocolate, respectively. It is a powder type that can be easily dissolved in hot water, and it is easy to put in a stick for each cup. Let's drink in order.
"Tirol chocolate x Nitto black tea kinako latte" is a light beige powder. The fragrant scent of soybean flour spreads softly in the air. If you dissolve it in hot water and drink it, it really looks like "kinako mochi"! The taste of kinako, chocolate, and mochi gummy mixed in the mouth is beautifully reproduced. The best cup of milky and gentle Japanese taste ♪
"Tirol chocolate x Nitto black tea matcha latte" is a beautiful matcha powder. You can feel the elegant scent of matcha. And, of course, the taste that skillfully expresses "Matcha mochi"! The milky sweetness is moderate and there is almost no astringency of matcha, so it seems to be good for relaxing at night.
Both "kinako latte" and "matcha latte" are light and smooth to drink. If you use warm milk instead of hot water, you will have a more satisfying cup. You can also make ice latte by adding cold water or milk after dissolving it in a small amount of hot water. It looks like you can enjoy it all year round.
Each contains 8 bottles and the suggested retail price is 360 yen (excluding tax). I bought it at Aeon, but I saw it at a convenience store, so if you are interested, why not check out the nearby shops? In the same series, products in collaboration with Tyrolean chocolate "milk" and "coffee nougat" are also being developed.
