V-Day isn’t just about hearts and flowers, that’s a shade too vanilla for our tastes (wink, wink). This year, make Valentine’s Day anything but plain with the flavors of KOHO. Think sweet and tart Mango Ginger Caramel or vibrant Kona Coffee Caramel — the list of island-inspired flavors goes on. But don’t take our word for it — you can experience KOHO’s delightful bon bons yourself at its namesake boutique at Ala Moana Center, where the luxury pop-up will remain open through the end of April.
Nestled within the elegant boutique are some of the most delicious bon bons and artisan chocolate bars you’ll ever come across. Being a Hawai‘i brand — KOHO is part of Hawaiian Host Group — you can expect each piece to imbue the spirit of the Islands with each bite; the artfully crafted line features visually enticing confections infused with the finest ingredients. Afterall, when it’s the Islands that inspire, you can expect only one thing: a chocolate treasure to behold and perhaps share with the ones you love (that includes you, too).
KOHO has fast become the artisanal chocolate brand of the Islands. Theresa Tuxhorn, Director of Global Branding for Hawaiian Host and KOHO says, “KOHO is more than just an indulgence, it’s a one-of-a-kind immersive experience. To open a box of KOHO is to feel the excitement of discovery. Why not share that discovery during Valentine’s Day?”
The Ala Moana Center shop also carries chocolate you won’t find anywhere else: KOHO’s luxe line of chocolate tablets. Discover a new favorite among its six distinctive flavors: Liliko‘i White Chocolate, Kona Coffee with Dark Chocolate, Macadamia Nut Sea Salt Dark Chocolate, Macadamia Nut Sea Salt Milk Chocolate, 55% Hawaiian Cacao Dark Chocolate, and 38% Hawaiian Cacao Milk Chocolate. Or if deciding on just one tablet proves to be a challenge, give a library set of all six instead.
To add that extra touch of personalization, shoppers can also create their own flavor medley via its Found For You boxes — bespoke 12- and 25-piece boxes that can be filled with a colorful combination of bon bons from the store’s sleek customization island.
In the spirit of Valentine’s Day, KOHO has a sweet promotion happening at the boutique! Those who purchase a 25-piece Found For You box will also receive a complimentary 2-piece custom box to take home. So … should you decide to gift a box to someone special, you’ll have two pieces of paradise to hold onto as well.
