Flavor Descriptions:
Red Bean Almond Cookie – This flavor is a play off of desserts commonly found in American Chinatowns. Red adzuki beans are widely used in Japanese, Korean, and Chinese desserts, like sweet soups and pastry fillings. They’ve combined two of their favorite desserts to make this unique mashup flavor.
Citrus Sichuan Peppercorn – Freshly zested oranges and ground Sichuan peppercorns gives each taster an 8 second flavor journey from familiar to unique. The light lemony aroma of sichuan peppercorns, native to Tibet and Nepal, create a tingling sensation in your mouth as you the orange-creamsicle-like flavor melts off your tongue. Each lick engages all your senses!
Roasted Barley Tea – Inspired by Korean and Japanese barley tea, this deeply rich flavor has nutty overtones that are reminiscent of sugar smacks cereal milk.
Matcha Green Tea – The health benefits of ground green tea leaves are well documented, but you’ll love the bright color and smoky flavor of this classic Asian ice cream, which is enhanced with their super-premium cream.
Chocolate Yuzu (non-dairy vegan) – The yuzu fruit is prominent in Japan and tastes like a aromatic grapefruit mixed with a lime. Ice Cream Jubilee riffed on a classic chocolate and orange combination to create this unique vegan flavor.
Ume Plum Sesame Leaf (non-dairy vegan) – Ume Plum is a small Japanese fruit used to make sweet tea or umeboshi salted plums. They've incorporated ume plums into their new vegan flavor with ground sesame leaves (which are most often seen as a savory side dish, marinated in soy sauce, vinegar, and chili!).
