I bought this a month ago but only just opened it today, though it is still very fresh.
Not sure why but on the top of the box it says "hoshi ni negai wo" which is the equivalent to "wishing on a star" in English. I guess it must have been some kind of promotion.
This Kit Kat is Tripleberry, and the box has an image of strawberries, blueberries, and cranberries. There is juice powder of all three berries in the chocolate, though how much I'm not sure, as for major ingredients they are pretty far down the list.
The Kit Kat itself is white chocolate with pink swirls. It smells very much like strawberry.
The first bite is very florally. It almost tastes like rose, or what I would imagine a rose would taste like. There are some very sweet notes, and some sour bursts.
I can't really tell any of the flavours apart, it's one amalgamation of berry. I can't distinguish which is which. The chocolate on the outside is quite sweet and contains the sour bursts, while the pink cream sandwiched between the wafers has a stronger berry flavour, more like strawberry.
For an all-round berry flavour it's quite good, but if you were hoping to taste all the flavours singularly, you would be disappointed.
I enjoyed this bar because while it was sweet, it wasn't tooth-achingly so. If they ever reinvent this I would like to try it with a milk chocolate coating.

These tend to show up here for tanabata (hence the wishes on stars). I wonder if this has been re-introduced or is just limited in its availability. I haven't seen one for ages.
Ahh so that's why eh. In that case, this is abit old then! haha though amazingly it was still within the due date by a month or so.
