Strong mint-flavored chocolate mint ice cream
I took the ice cream bar out of the package; it’s a rectangular ice cream, similar to Akagi Nyugyo’s “Garigari-kun.” The mint ice cream is packed with chocolate chips.
Here’s a look at the cross-section.
There are also some small pieces of chocolate, though not as many as the chocolate chips.
As for the taste… it’s super minty! The moment you take a bite, a refreshing burst of mint spreads through your mouth. The crispy texture of the chocolate chips and the slightly firmer chocolate bits add a nice accent.
While many chocolate mint ice creams have a mild mint flavor, the “Choco Mint Bar for Mint Lovers” is truly for those who love mint. This refreshing coolness is addictively delicious—if you’re a mint fan.
What are the reviews on social media?
The product, which has been on the market for a while, has garnered various reviews on social media.
- “This is the best chocolate mint I’ve ever had. Please keep selling it.”
- “Out of all the recent chocolate mint products, this is my favorite.”
- “The mint flavor is strong, and the chocolate is perfectly sized and delicious.”
- “Seven-Eleven’s chocolate mint bar is a hit in the chocolate mint community.”
- “There’s none left… I visited nine stores with no luck.”
- “It’s sold out.”
While there are many positive reviews, some people are already reporting that it’s sold out. Incidentally, it’s also sold out at the Seven-Eleven stores I frequent.
Conclusion
It’s highly popular, and it seems to have disappeared from store shelves in no time. If you spot one, it’s probably best to buy it immediately.
