What Is Banana Yakigashi?
In order to appreciate this drink, it would be beneficial to know the meaning of yakigashi. In Japanese, yakigashi is used to describe baked sweets cookies, sponge cakes and pastries. They tend to be light and airy and mild in flavor, without being too sweet, but full of flavour and texture. ZUS Coffee has used this old idea and transformed it into a drink. The result? The banana puree, milk and a touch of vanilla and caramel is mixed into a smooth creamy drink all blended in, to give that warm and baked dessert taste. The name itself provides you with the idea of what to expect as it is a banana-based beverage that falls into the category of having a bite of freshly baked banana bread, but smoother and lighter and more drinkable.
The Flavor Experience
The initial taste of the banana yakigashi, ZUS Coffee, is a good experience in itself. The natural sweetness of banana, soft and mellow, is immediately followed by the creamy note, which reminds of whipped custard. Then there is a touch of caramelized sugar, but not burned, just deepening it the way baked goods do, and makes you imagine golden banana muffins or banana pound cake just out of the oven. It is not too dense or heavy but has a smooth finish that layers your taste-buds without clogging them. It is the right combination of rich and refreshing. In case you prefer the iced one, it is cooling and creamy, and it is better to have it when it is hot, and you need something sweet, but not so sweet. The warm one, however, is soothing– an excellent companion of a peaceful morning or a pleasant evening.
