The Prize

12 large hot chocolates over 12 months (one per month)


We’re delighted to open this year’s festival with our Fourth Annual Mystery Flavor Challenge —a guest favorite that has become a Koko Monk tradition.

This year’s vegan mystery dark hot chocolate is crafted with undisclosed ingredients, inviting you into a sensory puzzle. Bold, layered, and intentionally elusive, it’s designed to test not just your taste buds—but your intuition.

You’ll have 9 days
Saturday, January 17 → Monday, January 26
to taste, reflect, and identify the primary secret flavor.

How to enter

Post your guess on Instagram and tag #mykokomonk. Each tagged post counts as an official entry.

After last year’s unexpected turnout, we’ve chosen a far more recognizable main flavor this time—one nearly everyone knows. That said, it appears in a form you may never have experienced before.

If multiple correct guesses are submitted, a draw will determine the winner.

We can’t wait to see how refined your palate truly is. Good luck—and trust your senses.
