This is the Meiji Kajū Gumi Muscat. Each bag contained its weight in fresh fruit juice, specifically, 51 g of fresh muscat juice concentrated 6.1 times to yield 8.4 g of concentrated muscat juice. It was rated 2 out of 5 on Meiji’s softness-to-hardness scale.
The gummies were around 2.5 x 1.5 x 1 cm in size, with a translucent yellow hue and emitted a pleasant muscat aroma. Upon tasting, the gummies offered a soft and bouncy texture (rated 2/5 on the soft to hard scale), with the muscat flavour initially presenting itself in a mild manner during the first few chews. Subsequently, a vibrant and juicy muscat sweetness emerged in the body of the gummy, followed by a well-balanced acidity in the finish. The grape flavour tasted natural, akin to that of a freshly picked grape. Combined with the impeccable texture, these attributes rendered the gummies deeply satisfying and certainly worth considering for repurchase.
This Meiji Kajū Gummy Muscat contained 51 g. It was produced in Japan and purchased in Sydney, Australia in 2023.
