Rokusuiren matcha chocolate cake is made generously using domestic organic matcha green tea, Belgian white chocolate and Calpis butter. Only domestic matcha certified organic by JAS, the Japanese Agriculture Standard, is used. The matcha powder made from tea leaves carefully grown in rich nature without using pesticides or chemical fertilizers is friendly to both people and the environment, making the sweet an extremely rare delicacy. Matcha is a delicate ingredient that loses its flavors and aroma with heat, but this product uses more than twice as much organic matcha as regular matcha sweets, allowing you to fully enjoy its sophisticated aroma. In addition, a rare Calpis butter is used to further enhance the flavors of matcha. Produced from milkfat generated in the production process of Calpis uncarbonated soft drink, the butter does not have a strong buttery flavor, which is suited for making a sweet that is light on the palate. The Belgian white chocolate matches perfectly with the bitter taste of the matcha. Just one bite and you will sense the bitter and sweet flavors of matcha that spread throughout your mouth.
Born out of the idea of conveying the matcha culture to the world through authentic sweets that are friendly to the environment, Rokusuiren brand will continue to offer delicious sweets brimming with the exquisite aroma and flavors of the matcha green tea.
