I was sent these Green Tea Chocolate Oreos to review from Japanese Snack specialists Candysan. I have been really excited about reviewing these seeing as I love Oreos...who doesn't! Green Tea seems a very popular flavor in Japan and it's a flavor that is still quite new to me but I did recently review some Green Tea Ice Cream which I really enjoyed.
Green Tea Chocolate Oreos come in nice box and are individually wrapped. They are not the usual round shaped Oreos that I am used to, but more like little logs. There were 8 in this box and each Oreo is 32 calories.
Each biscuit is around an inch long and they are a lovely bright green color. I could really smell the green tea but they also smelt very sweet, almost sickly. The texture is like that of a normal Oreo, quite crunchy.
When I first took a bite I was hit with a really strong green tea taste which was quite bitter and at first I thought I wasn't going to enjoy this biscuit....but then came the chocolate and wow, actually this combination is awesome! The sweetness of the chocolate biscuit really compliments the green tea and I was really surprised at how much I enjoyed these crazy Oreos!
Verdict
Well I honestly did not think I was going to be awarding these full marks but I loved Green Tea Chocolate Oreos! The flavor combination is just so unusual but really worked well. These Oreos are available from Candysan for ¥210 which is around £1.35.
