TREEE'S KYOTO O-No-cha Truffle Chocolate

Tasting Report! The ultimate matcha truffle chocolate from Kyoto is a passionate sweet that brings people together!

[Leaf writer Yuko Sakaguchi reports on the limited-quantity sale of Onoicha truffle chocolates made in collaboration between TREEE'S KYOTO and Leaf. She introduces the characteristics of the product and her honest impression after trying it. If you are not sure whether to buy it or not, please refer to this report.

1.Authentic taste is created by passion.

[TREEE'S KYOTO is a brand of sweets created by a pastry chef with a high level wine qualification called Sommelier Excellence, who aims to create sweets that are healthier for the body while pursuing the ultimate in deliciousness through out-of-the-box thinking.
They use completely organic Uji matcha, which is made without the use of pesticides or chemical fertilizers. The idea of using as little extra as possible is to maximize the original taste of the carefully selected authentic ingredients.

The more one learns about the concept, the more melancholy one feels [TREEE'S KYOTO], and the more one eats it knowing this thought and not knowing it, the more passionate the taste is likely to be.

2.An ingenious device that is sure to be appreciated when you give it.

[The meaning of the word "leaf" is "leaf," and the package depicts flowers and grasses growing freely and connected to each other. The "connection" is a wish for people to have a wonderful "connection" with each other.
Just as a red rose casually presented to you in the language of flowers contains the message "I love you," if a gift of chocolate contained the message "I am grateful for our connection"...who in this world would not be happy? If it were me, I would not be able to stop smiling, even while eating it, as I see the face of the recipient flicker in my mind.

The design concept is "Tsunagu" (connection), which is expressed in the design of lush "leaves" of Leaf. The gold-colored pattern running down the center of the design is reminiscent of kintsugi, a traditional Japanese technique used to repair vessels. The design also conveys the wonderful message of "cherish it for a long time.

3.A taste of adulthood

The main ingredient is carefully selected organic Uji matcha green tea, and the rest is simple ingredients such as fresh cream and couverture chocolate.
It looks round and round, no? Cute! That's one word for it. However, if you look closely, you will notice that its bright green color gives it an extraordinary sense of luxury.

Sure enough, the moment I put it in my mouth, I thought, "Ugh...! It's so thick!" I couldn't help but exclaim. The matcha powder that surrounds the chocolate has a rich bitter taste.
The rich, yet not too sweet, moist chocolate mixes with the bitterness of the matcha as if it were melting in your mouth, and your face instantly relaxes. The aftertaste is also very strong, so by the time the taste lingers, you are enraptured.

A deep and beautiful green color that will make you gasp. Made with the highest quality organic Uji matcha, a must for matcha lovers.

Yes, "adult flavor" is complex with many faces. In fact, as I ate it, my face was busy with the deep bitterness, the moist sweetness, and the richness that lingers forever in the mouth....
Truffle chocolates are in a muso state as they are delicious, beautiful, and healthy. Knowing the meaning of the hidden message, I wanted to give them to my loved ones even more. Of course, they are also great as a reward for yourself. We hope you will give the adult taste a try.

Special sweets for gifts and for yourself.
