Omiyage Kuromitsu

Kuromitsu (2012/06/24)

I got another Omiyage from one of my friends. She's so great to think of me so much. This 黒みつ or Kuromitsu is apparently a KitKat flavor from Tokyo, though I hadn't seen it before. I was surprised by that actually. The box says it's specifically from Tokyo Nihombashi. That's rather near my side of town, and I still didn't know. Anyway, if you don't know what it is, Kuromitsu is basically syrup that's similar to molasses and it's used in Japanese sweets. I like it in "anmitsu". I was rather torn on the KitKat though. It was sweet but in a deep way - like molasses tends to be.
