What Makes the Rich Matcha Thunder Unique?
1.
Premium Uji Matcha: At the heart of this creation are two carefully selected varieties of Uji matcha, celebrated for their rich and profound taste. The combination results in a unique balance of sweetness, umami, and slight bitterness, a result of multiple iterations to achieve perfection.
2.
Matcha Flavor Chips: To further enhance the matcha experience, the bar includes matcha-flavored chips made from domestically sourced matcha. This extra layer invites a deeper flavor profile, making each bite a delicious journey through the world of matcha.
3.
Basic Cookie Development: The classic crunchy texture of Black Thunder comes from the base biscuit, which has been refined with a new 'Basic Cookie' recipe. This plain-flavored biscuit complements the subtle balance of sweetness, umami, and bitterness of the matcha, paired with the signature satisfying crunch that Black Thunder is known for.
The combination of these elements means that as you eat through the bar, you'll experience the depth of matcha gradually unfold. The bar’s bottom is coated with a rich, bitter chocolate that perfectly balances the matcha’s sweetness and elevates the overall tasting experience.
