This is the Kikkoman Soy Milk Drink Sakura, a flavoured soy milk featuring sakura extract, and 4% soybean solids.
The beverage presented with an opaque cream hue. Aroma opened with delicate floral notes of sakura, supported by a subtle sweetness and mild soybean character.
Initial contact delivered immediate notes of mellow sakura blossoms alongside a smooth body with a slight viscosity. The floral profile was restrained and elegant, lending a gentle fragrance rather than an overtly perfumed character. Through the mid-palate, the sakura developed with moderate sweetness, creating a rounded flavour profile reminiscent of annin tofu. The soy milk base provided a creamy foundation that softened the floral notes, allowing them to remain well integrated rather than becoming overly assertive. The combination produced a balanced, dessert-like character while maintaining the beverage’s clean, understated style. Towards the finish, the beany notes of the soy milk became more apparent, accompanied by a sweetness reminiscent of sweetened Vita Soy Milk. Despite this shift, the beverage resolved cleanly without lingering heaviness. Aftertaste carried a noticeable soybean astringency that contrasted with the otherwise smooth progression and gently floral profile.
Overall, a flavoured soy milk with a layered flavour trajectory and cohesive texture integration, resulting in a delicately floral, dessert-like structure balanced by the familiar character of sweetened soy milk.
