This is the Sangaria Tsubumi Yōnashi, containing 10% pear juice and pear purée.
The beverage had a translucent yellow hue with visible 5 mm cubes of pear flesh suspended throughout, and a gentle, mellow pear aroma.
When consumed chilled, it opened with crisp, clean notes of Western pear, followed by a mid-palate touch of juicy acidity that added lift. Toward the finish, a rich, honey-like sweetness emerged—surprisingly intense without veering into syrupy territory—before resolving quickly into a clean, refreshing aftertaste. The cubes of pear were firm, offering a satisfying audible crunch, though they did not contribute additional flavour beyond the juice. This worked effectively, as the liquid component successfully captured the sweet, juicy, and aromatic qualities of fresh pear, allowing the fruit pieces to serve purely as a textural accent. A brief stir was needed before drinking to re-suspend the pear cubes evenly.
Overall, this was a delicious, textured beverage—enjoyable both to drink and to eat.
