Among the KFX format "enhanced typesetting" there should be dropcaps.
The question is: how to use them?

I've tried with no luck with the CSS ::first-letter selector.

Of course it's possible doing it via simple CSS but the rendering is quite font-family (and device) dependent.
There are instructions on how to format drop caps in the Amazon Kindle Publishing Guilelines section 9.3.5. The conversion to KFX looks for that formatting.
