Did you know that there are some KitKat items that you can only buy at certain airports in Japan? The new “Hokkaido Melon with Mascarpone Cheese” KitKat is one such product, and they’re sold exclusively at specific areas within some of the major international airports in Japan. The name of the flavor alone were more than enough to capture our attention.
The actual product is made with Hokkaido melon and mascarpone cheese powder sandwiched between those familiar KitKat wafers and covered in white chocolate. We have to say, the gentle and sweet taste of melon with the creamy flavor of mascarpone cheese certainly sounds like an attractive combination! And hey, if Canteloupe Melon and Cream Frappuccino can be a hit, we see no reason why melon-flavored KitKats shouldn’t taste awesome, right?
The Hokkaido Melon with Mascarpone Cheese Kit Kat comes in a “mini” size package containing three pieces of the treat. There are also currently three other types of airport exclusive KitKats, “Japanese Strawberry“, “Uji Matcha” and “Sakura Matcha” which all come in the same size as well.
If you’re traveling to or from Japan, you may want to keep your eyes open for these special KitKats, as they’re sure to make coveted gifts for sweets lovers… although you may have a hard time choosing which flavor to buy. (Seriously, how are you supposed to choose between strawberry, matcha, sakura and melon?).

Uh... I don't think they're sold exclusively at airports. It's more like a regional "omiyage", which can, of course, be found at most stores selling some local omiyage.
