Three chocolates go into the weave: matcha, bitter and white. Matcha is green tea ground to a powder, and this one uses matcha from Uji, the tea-growing area near Kyoto. Buy it if you want matcha you can eat like chocolate; if you want a strong, bitter, tea-forward hit, this is the wrong box.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOn the pack: 紗々 芳醇抹茶. The name is said \u003cem\u003esasha\u003c\/em\u003e, and 紗 is the word for a thin, sheer woven cloth, which is exactly what the chocolate is made to look like. The plain chocolate box is the original of the range; this is the matcha one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat you're getting\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEach line is about 1.5 mm wide.

Some get a rich, grown-up tea flavour; others find the white chocolate takes over.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEach piece is wrapped on its own, so the box is easy to hand round at work or take to someone's house.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eKeep it somewhere cool, each piece is a thin woven sheet, not a solid block.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAllergens\u003c\/strong\u003e: contains milk and soy.
