This is the JA Foods Ōita Tsuburana Mikan. It contained 10% fruit juice from mikan juice as well as juice vessicles from natsumikan.
The beverage was an opaque, vibrant orange hue with suspended sediment. It introduced a sweet mandarin fragrance that translated seamlessly into a refreshing mandarin flavour upon tasting, characterized by its crispness and lively sweetness. This was aptly balanced by a restrained acidity that imparted a smooth mouthfeel to the drink. The presence of juice vesicles contributed a pleasurable texture, offering a mild sweetness that lacked sharpness, distinct from the hint of bitterness observed in the kabosu and yuzu versions. Overall, this proved to be a revitalizing beverage that adeptly captured the lively sweetness and understated acidity of the mikan with finesse.
