Inventory of Japanese Haagen-Dazs: a limited edition product on the tip of the tongue.

Japan’s Gens has always been known for its wide variety and low prices. The reason why it can be done like this? Naturally because of localized production. Lao Yang once read a report saying that there are almost no Haagen-Dazs stores in Japan. Because convenience store sales alone are profitable enough.

How is it? Drag it?

Japan’s Haagen-Dazs definitely has a reason to be awesome.

As a collector of Haagen-Dazs (hereinafter nicknamed Gens) limited-edition products, every time he goes to Japan, Lao Yang will buy the limited-edition products, taste them, and get very angry. Show off in your circle of friends. After all, I can’t stay in Japan for a long time, so I can’t say that I’ve eaten all of Genz’s limited-edition products, but I will definitely try whatever I come across.

Japan likes to create limited edition products. Almost everything you can think of has been limited. So what is a limited time period? This means that even if it is recommended, you may not be able to eat it if you go. Ah ha ha ha ha... feel free to despise me! 233333

Because there are so many limited edition products that I have tried, Lao Yang tried his best to list the limited edition items that he has eaten. Basically they are: mint chocolate, thick brownie, cheese cake, Japanese chestnuts, red beans, Pumpkin, banana milk, tropical fruits, matcha cookies, banana cookies, custard, nuts, Sicilian lemon pie, vanilla raspberry cookies.

Well, that’s basically what I remember. Then let me recommend a few, because some popular flavors may be sold again in the future.

Before recommending, let’s talk about regular products. Among the regular products, I personally prefer the strawberry flavor, which is sour and sweet, not as greasy as chocolate. Although I am a chocolate lover, I have to say that among Gens’ regular products, strawberry is slightly better.

Next, let’s talk about limited edition products.

The first thing I want to recommend to you must be chocolate mint. It's a relatively new favorite (the real new favorite is at the end. 2333). Last summer, Lao Yang tasted this flavor for the first time and fell in love with it. The strong mint flavor dilutes the cloying taste of chocolate. A good compromise, suitable for summer. I estimate that if I go to Japan between July and September, it should be available in supermarkets. Because according to reports, this was not new last year, it was also available in previous years. It sold well and was popular, and then it was launched again.

The second one I want to recommend to everyone is the cheesecake flavor. When I ate it, I thought it was yogurt flavored, but I couldn’t forget it after eating it. After looking through the photos, I realized it was actually cheesecake flavored. The whole ice cream has a strong cheesecake flavor, just like eating heavy cheesecake. You can think about the texture. Although it didn’t say it was a limited edition product on the outer packaging, I haven’t seen it sold since then. Worry... I can only recall the taste.

Next is the rich brownie. Chocolate + brownie has a stronger taste than regular chocolate. I love the brownie particles, which are very thick and can be chewed a few times. Yummy! I have a sweet tooth.

Red bean root. The red beans are sweet and crispy, and paired with the smooth roots, the taste is even better and the sweetness is moderate. Then for some reason, Lao Yang tasted blood glutinous rice when he ate it. Haha, what a strange taste.

Matcha cookies. The matcha flavor is strong, and the cookies add a lot of interest, tempering the monotony. It feels similar to Royce's matcha chocolate.

Finally, this is a limited product that I finally found after searching many supermarkets in Sapporo at the end of last year. Sugar-fried chestnuts + red beans + jam. The chestnut sauce is really delicious, fragrant, sweet and smooth. Chestnuts really taste better than ice cream. The price is a little more expensive than ordinary Gens, and it feels like an upgraded version of a limited edition. This is highly recommended! If you go to Japan in the future and see it, you must buy it and try it, it is absolutely delicious!

Generally, they are sold in Gens supermarkets in Japan. Prices will vary slightly depending on the season. But basically they are within 300 yen and 18rmb. It's very cheap, and there are many varieties. It is recommended that those who travel to Japan can have a cup of it every day. Ha ha. Lao Yang will continue to follow the Gens restrictions and try his best to try them one by one!
