This is the Nagatoya Ripe White Peach Gumi, featuring juice from Fukushima-grown white peaches, specifically from the Momo no Megumi line of peach juice—a product previously sampled during travel through the region.
Each gummy was a domed disc approximately 2.3 cm in diameter and 0.8 cm in height, with an opaque pink-orange hue and a fragrant floral white peach aroma. On tasting, the texture offered a clean, satisfying resistance, with a bouncy chew that gave way evenly. The white peach flavour was immediate and prominent, intensifying with each bite. It delivered the richness and aromatic sweetness of freshly squeezed white peach, accompanied by a gentle, balancing acidity. The flavour was deep and consistent from start to finish, unmarred by any off-notes from starch coating or gelling agents. The experience was akin to the juice itself being captured and transformed into solid form, with remarkable clarity and fidelity.
Overall, a standout white peach gummy capturing the freshness, floral aroma, and juiciness of peak-season fruit. Luxurious in flavour and texture—well worth repurchasing.
This Nagatoya Ripe White Peach Gumi contained 10 individually sealed pieces. It was produced in Japan and purchased in Fukushima, Japan in 2024.
