This is not a typical yohkan. Not the type that is firm and overly sweet. Instead, it is very different, thankfully. Its texture is smooth, soft and juicy, practically melts in your mouth. A very tender and watery version of an agar pudding, more to a texture that is baby-friendly. Its sweetness level is moderate, enough to give comfort to the palate. The flavor of matcha is very mild, though, unfortunately. More to the aftertaste. I find it highly enjoyable, mainly due to its texture. It is especially nice when served chilled. The cooler, the better. This Mizu Yohkan would be a nice accompaniment to a Japanese green tea, but it would be a perfect snack/dessert to have on its own, especially during the hot weather. I imagine how nice it would be having this outdoor when the sun is blazing, with this yohkan served chilled and topped with some shaved ice. It would be so refreshing. I can only wish it would have a much bolder matcha flavor, which then I would give a 5-star rating. |
