The Strawberry Cheesecake Kitkat, as well as the Ani Tofu Kitkat are the regional Kitkat flavours for Yokohama. Compared to the Ani Tofu flavour which had a more distinct taste, the Strawberry Cheesecake flavour was less satisfying. Don't get me wrong, it's still tasty and there was a tint of a fruity flavour but you can't tell it's strawberry and there's no cheese taste at all. Was hoping for a stronger flavour.
On the whole, it's an interesting omiyage to bring home with you but it's a winner in terms of its taste. If you are in Yokohama, suggest you pick up a box of Ani Tofu Kitkat instead. In case you are wondering why Ani Tofu and Strawberry Cheesecake flavours are supposed to be representative of Yokohama, it's because Yokohama is a port city and hence one of the first places in Japan that was exposed to foreign culture through foreign trading vassals. And hence, these two "foreign-imported" flavours were chosen.
