The Lindt Tokyo Style Chocolate Matcha Strawberry bar is a new limited-edition product from the chocolate brand that incorporates a variety of premium ingredients to achieve a tasty, umami flavor profile.
The bar is inspired by Japanese tea traditions and thus features ceremonial-grade Chamei Minami matcha along with Genmai roasted rice, Swiss white chocolate and pieces of strawberry. These ingredients incorporate sweetness, creaminess and brightness to give the treat the perfect flavor to enjoy this winter. The limited-edition chocolate bar will be exclusively available via the brand's London Piccadilly flagship location starting December 6, 2025 for £15 each with just 200 numbered examples being offered.
Master Chocolatier at Lindt&Sprüngli Stefan Bruderer spoke on the Lindt Tokyo Style Chocolate Matcha Strawberry bar saying, "After seeing the reaction to our Lindt Dubai Style Chocolate over the past year, we’re excited to continue our culinary journey, this time to Japan, and launch a new innovation that combines the finest Swiss chocolate craftmanship with the secrets of traditional tea ceremonies using Japanese matcha."
