Product description

This is the famous German energy chocolate you're looking for! This brown gold in the easily recognizable round tin box has kept ze Germans awake and efficient since the 1930s. Scho-Ka-Kola is chocolate with lots of caffeine, essentially a mild combat drug! (Contrary to rumors, the recipe never included other psychoactive stimulants apart from caffeine.)

Also available in a squad-size 10-Pack for a special price.

Scho-Ka-Kola is not for children. The taste is strong, and the bits are separated, so you don't have to use your bloody bayonet for the job. It is also a valid currency for bribing others in the field. If you are expecting some kind of Easter egg milk chocolate, this is not for you!

The long history told short

Scho-Ka-Kola is a dark, bitter, and strong chocolate, originally developed for sports. During WW2, Scho-Ka-Kola was a part of the aviator's iron ration and was widely issued alongside normal food distribution to the army. Getting chocolate would boost morale but soldiers' diaries also have mentioned that it would often also mean trouble ahead.

In the '60s, the selection grew by 200% with the addition of milk and hazelnut options with a different taste but all the boost. These were phased out relatively soon, but the blue option made a comeback in 2012, so you can now choose between the Original and Milk Chocolate

Morning coffee in more efficient format

Six pieces of Scho-Ka-Kola contain about as much caffeine as a cup of coffee. In numbers, one tin (100 g) contains 200 mg of caffeine. Botanically speaking, the kola nut is not a nut or legume but a seed. We advise people with tree nut or legume allergies to be cautious in any case. Below are the ingredients and nutritional values for each.

Not recommended for children, pregnant women, or those with a high sensitivity to caffeine.

Comes in a very handy tin box

The tin box is shaped perfectly for field use; strong and easy to open and close. When emptied, the boxes have plenty of uses e.g. for storing coins, RPG dice, a Boresnake, and other similar gun cleaning systems. You can also make a hole in it and use it for making char cloth. Even your own imagination is not the limit, as you can imitate others!

I think I'm addicted to this stuff. It's great. So far I've only tried the dark chocolate and it tastes fantastic, has a very balanced, bitter and sweet flavor. The caffeine content is quite low, but combined with the sugar it's enough to get you energized after eating a few portions. Perfect for an early afternoon pick-me-up. The tin is easy to carry, the chocolate didn't melt despite the fact I received it in the summer. I just ordered 2 large boxes of the dark chocolate variety and 2 tins of the milk chocolate one, the 2 tins I ordered initially weren't enough in the least.

Taste good, gives a lil kick when in dire need of energy. Also good with a cup of coffee. Germans knew their stuff

Tasted it first time in about 1984, it still tastes the same (which is good). The tin box can be put to various uses. I have loved this chocolade since I was a kid. You should always have some in stock. If you like either coffee or chocolade (or both), this is for you.
