This is the Akagi Garigari-kun Nashi, a seasonal flavour. The popsicle contained juice from nashi and apple (2%) with a crisp outer shell concealing a nashi-flavoured shaved ice centre.

The gentle and sweet scent of nashi pear greeted the senses as soon as the packaging was opened. Upon tasting, the flavour profile proved to be vibrant and invigorating, akin to indulging in a nashi pear that has reached its pinnacle of ripeness. A noteworthy adjustment undertaken by the company involved an increase in the proportion of fine ice, setting it apart from the typical Gari-gari-kun formula. This tweak successfully amplified the crispy texture, effectively simulating the act of savouring a freshly picked pear. The distinct nashi flavour of this popsicle was unmistakable, and its rejuvenating kakigōri-like mouthfeel rendered it a worthy candidate for repurchase.

This Akagi Garigari-kun Nashi contained 105 mL. It was produced in Japan and purchased in Sydney, Australia in 2023.
