This is the Okiko Uchina Gumi Guminchu Okinawa Mango. It used the purée of mangoes grown in Okinawa, a japanese prefecture renowned for its tropical climate.
These gummies were a translucent shade of orange, measuring approximately 1.5 x 1.5 x 1 cm. They emitted a sweet, floral mango aroma that was truly inviting. When tasted, these gummies displayed a soft yet resilient elasticity, and just a few chews were sufficient to release the delightful tropical flavour of ripe mangoes. The flavour captured the vibrant sweetness of the fruit and carried a subtle, refreshing sourness reminiscent of fresh mangoes. Each chew enhanced the juicy, fruity mango flavour, featuring tropical hints of pineapple and melon, yet surprisingly, left no lingering aftertaste on the palate.
Overall, these gummies immensely satisfying, offering a richer flavour compared to Kasugai Mango Gumi, a smoother texture compared to Cocoaland Lot 100 Mango Gummy, and a more elastic mouthfeel than the Nippon Yell Miyazaki Mango Gummy, making them a prime candidate for repurchase.
This Okiko Uchina Gumi Guminchu Okinawa Mango contained 40 g. It was produced in Japan and purchased in Tōkyō, Japan in 2023.
