We'd like to consider Pocky sticks the Japanese version of Oreos in that new flavors are constantly dropping. One of the newest variations is defintely a flavor adults will appreciate more than sweet-toothed kids.
Kotaku reports that Glico snacks has released sleek new whisky-flavored Pocky sticks.
Since chocolate is usually a solid choice to enjoy with the hard liquor, the brand created the snack with the pairing in mind. The dough from the pretzel stick is kneaded with wort, the sweet liquid that comes from the mashing process of brewing whisky.
To elevate the snack even further, the Pocky stick is salted and covered in whisky-scented chocolate.
It's highly doubtful that you can get a buzz from the new snack sticks. If you appreciate a good glass of whiskey, however, you'll probably enjoy the detail that went into making these new Pocky sticks.
