Recently, Takagi has focused on refining the famous KitKat bars to give them a more sophisticated taste and appearance. KitKat Chocolatory Sublime Bitter, which looks like a cigarillo (mini cigar), and Sublime Volcanic, which is created from premium chocolate grown in volcanic soil, are two examples.
While these chocolates are aimed at a more mature and refined palate, the latest addition to Kitkat's luxury roster features a flavor that exclusively caters to an adult audience.
The secret is in the flavor of the Whiskey in Barrel
While chocolate and alcohol is not a new combination, Nestlé Japan has introduced a new premium KitKat infused with the flavors of whiskey casks.

These whiskey KitKats retain all the flavors and aromas of an Islays whiskey, with intense floral notes and a salty coastal breeze finish. Together with the bitter dark chocolate, the flavors of the whiskey harmonize perfectly for “adults who like to enjoy the aroma and delicate taste of whiskey”.
