KitKat Dark Chocolate

Spire here with a short but very sweet bit of sugar to share!

Now, a KitKat is an absolutely normal thing to come across in your average grocery store. Well, with the exception of those weird flavoured KitKats Japan is constantly churning out (really, Sakura flavour? if I wanted flowers I'd go and eat them myself)

So to my surprise I came across these dark chocolate KitKats in Jaya Grocer. They're not cheap at all, pricing close to RM8 a bar, and they melt really easy.
I had to refrigerate mine as soon as I got home, else it would have gone out of shape. At any rate, the packaging is quite tough (none of that weird paper stuff going on here) so  you CAN feel the quality that you are paying for. Here's the back, if you'd like to see the minute details. It ONLY has 10.3g of sugar in it :D

Sorry, but we can't provide a picture of the bar inside it. It didn't last long enough for a picture!

Taste wise, it was a very rich, deliciously dark chocolatey KitKat. It wasn't so sweet, and it wasn't all that bitter either, but rather that delectable middle ground between them. It tasted great cold as well as warm (though a teensy bit messier) I'd strongly recommend it if you have a bit of extra cash you want to splurge on some tasty dark chocolate, but not enough to go and grab a premium chocolate bar. 

There's a slightly cheaper 70% dark chocolate version as well, but it didn't survive the journey home. Oh well *sniff*
