Frequently asked questions

What types of Japanese soft drinks do you offer?

Our range includes refreshing soda and tonic waters, traditional Japanese drinks like amazake (with a range of different flavours including yuzu and matcha), yuzu-flavoured soft drinks, ume beverages and other artisanal Japanese refreshments. You can also find a wide range of syrups and drinking vinegars, which are perfect for adding a touch of concentrated flavour (such as ume plum, yuzu and shiso) to other beverages.

What is amazake?

Amazake is a traditional Japanese sweet, non-alcoholic rice drink made from fermented rice and koji. Naturally creamy and slightly sweet, it can be enjoyed warm or chilled as a soft drink, or it can also be used as a dessert base, a natural sweetening agent, or an ingredient in smoothies and sauces.

In addition to being a popular and delicious drink, amazake is also seen as a healthy option because it’s packed with natural enzymes, amino acids and vitamins B1, B2 and B6 – in fact, it’s widely considered a hangover cure in Japan!

At The Wasabi Company, we offer authentic amazake crafted using traditional methods in addition to flavoured options including yuzu, matcha and sesame amazake – perfect for sipping on its own or adding a touch of Japanese tradition to your dessert and cocktail recipes.

What is mikan juice?

Mikan juice is a refreshing Japanese soft drink made from mild, sweet, seedless mandarin oranges called mikan. With its sweet and slightly tangy flavour, mikan juice can be enjoyed on its own or in a wide range of cocktails and mocktails.

What are Japanese drinking vinegars?

Japanese drinking vinegars are tangy, fruit-infused vinegar beverages traditionally enjoyed for their refreshing taste and perceived health benefits – especially compared to sugary sodas. They’re often mixed with still or sparkling water (typically 1 part vinegar to 4–5 parts water) and are made using ingredients like yuzu, ume plum and sudachi.

Do these Japanese soft drinks need to be refrigerated?

Unopened bottles can generally be stored in a cool, dark place. Once opened, most drinking vinegars and soft drinks should be refrigerated and consumed within the timeframe listed on the label.
