Asahi Mintia Spearmint mints

These are great. The mint's them selves are really small and you probably could use like 2 at one time or three. The container that it comes in is really small, size of a credit card but maybe like 5 or 6 stacked on top of each other. It fits 50 of these mints and they have a nice taste. I am not sure if it eradicated my bad breath those days but they are enjoyable and I wish I could try a few more of the flavors. 

Asahi Dry Zero Beer

Well when you see a "beer" with Zero you might think it is zero calories but what this really is is ZERO Alcohol! If you like that dry Asahi beer taste and don't care whether it has alcohol or not then its good. It taste just like a bottle of Asahi but there is no beer. Was a little pricey though for a non-alcoholic bottle of beer. It's like Japan's O'douls. Well if you really do enjoy the beer taste of Asahi but don't care for the alcohol then go for it but I'll pass. 

Asahi Jūrokucha Tea "16 teas"

 

 Asahi's Jūrokucha tea isn't any kind of normal tea but multiple teas into one. Jūrokucha literally means "16 teas" because it is a blended tea. It comes from leaves, grains and fruits such as; barley, kuromame, brown rice, job's tears, habucha, mulberry, lingzhi, persimmon, jiaogulan, kombu, sasa veitchii, sesame, mikan peel, black rice, shiso leaves, and eucommia. That is a lot of stuff and I don't know at least half of them yet it is considered a health food in Japan. It has 20% of your daily fiber which is great and there is 2 servings per bottle so that makes 40% if drink the entire thing. That only adds up to 10 calories for the bottle which is great. Originally the drink was from the company Chanson Cosmetics as a dry blended tea and in 1993 did this bottle as a joint project with Asahi. Right up my ally that have promoted it for diabetics because it's sugar depressant abilities. Because of the popularity of the drink many other companies have ventured and done the "multi tea" format as well, including Coca cola.

Mitsuya Cider

Hey everyone!

Today I have some Mitsuya Cider from Asahi Brewing. The same company that makes the Asahi beer.
Some background on it is that it was all started in 1884. Cider over in the east has a little bit of a different meaning than it does here in United State. It was usually produced in these metal bottles until recently when they produce them in plastic. Glad I got this one though. they also come with a lot of other flavors that I hope one day I get to try. 

It came in a little aluminum can that has a screw off top like you see below. You can keep it not refrigerated but before you drink I highly recommend that you do before drinking it. Now this "Cider" says online that it is like a cross of Sprite and ginger ale. My first sip actually reminded me a lot like a ginger ale for sure. It is refreshing & sparkling just like the bottle says. It has a lot of carbonation and Now I guess for importing matters they slapped the label on the back of it in English for Nutrition Value. This bottle is short though it's only 300mL but fits perfect in the hand.

It is like a clear soda color but has a slight tint like a ginger ale does. It really is nice to drink and glad that it comes in a twist off top in case you don't finish it you can put the top on and place right back in the fridge. I only recommend that you keep it around for a bit after open because it will go flat probably.
