This is the Cheng Yang Herbal Drinks Corn Bamboo Shoot, featuring a corn and bamboo shoot base with chrysanthemum, astragalus, cassia seed, and added sweetener.
The beverage presented with a transparent light yellow hue, with a whole corn shoot and silk occupying the lower portion of the bottle. Aroma opened with immediate sweet corn, supported by a pronounced husk-like undertone, giving a slightly vegetal edge.
Initial contact delivered a clear corn flavour with a balanced, mellow sweetness. Through the mid-palate, the corn developed greater depth, becoming fuller and more rounded, while the husk notes introduced a gentle roasted character. This combination created a profile resembling lightly roasted sweet corn rather than fresh kernels alone. Towards the finish, the roasted corn profile carried through cleanly, with sweetness tapering without residue. Mouthfeel was light, moving from an aromatic entry to a clean, refreshing finish, without viscosity or coating.
Overall, a herbal corn-based beverage with a rounded roasted sweetness and clean finish, resulting in a light but flavour-consistent profile.
