To everyone who knows our Durian Cider, to everyone who loves durian, and to everyone who has never eaten durian before, thank you for waiting!
Tomomasu Drink Co., Ltd. (Representative: Satoshi Tomoda, Headquarters: 2575-3 Iwazo, Ogi-machi, Ogi-city, Saga Prefecture) will release the 'Fruit Ice Durian,' characterized by its unique aroma and rich flavor, in limited quantities starting Monday, April 20, 2026.
■ Development Background: Giving Form to Brand Identity
This product was born from the inspiration of the fruit cider of our popular 'Kodomo Noen' brand series. Durian is exactly the symbolic existence of the brand, which features the themes 'affordable price yet realistic flavor just like the real thing' and 'rare fruits that you don't usually have a chance to eat.'
Actually, in March 2024, other flavors (white peach, watermelon, muskmelon, mango) debuted a step ahead as 'Fruit Ice' and have grown into our standard summer items.
Two years have passed since then. Having received happy voices from our fans saying, 'Is there no durian ice cream?' and 'I want you to make it!', we finally decided to commercialize it in a [Limited Quantity].
In developing it, the planning team procured real durians. Gathering around the real fruit, they repeated trial and error while facing its intense personality. Furthermore, we had an employee from Vietnam, who is familiar with durian, cooperate in tasting and exchanging opinions, pursuing a reality that even those who know the authentic taste would agree with, not just a 'durian-like' flavor.
By combining the 'aroma blending technology' refined through cider making and the 'real flesh sensation' obtained from actual tasting, we have finished it into a confident work that we can proudly call 'stinky and delicious!'
■ Points of Dedication: A 'Stinky and Delicious!' Experience Stimulating the Five Senses
Durian is famous in Japan as a luxury item and a delicacy.
To those of you who are a little curious but hesitant in case of failure, why not give it a try?
We would be happy if both people who like durian and people who have never eaten it before could pick it up as an introductory or beginner's edition.
1. A strong aroma that completely reproduces the individuality of durian.
We compromised nothing in reproducing that unique aroma, which is its greatest feature.
The impact that spreads the moment you open the seal is exactly the 'King of Fruits' itself.
We were particular about the blending balance of flavors so that its presence would be exerted even when frozen.
2. Reproduction of a sticky and rich 'flesh sensation'.
A rich 'sticky' texture reminiscent of ripe durian flesh, which could only be realized because it is an ice cream. We also focused on reproducing the 'texture' that could not be fully expressed with cider.
3. Creamy sweetness that makes you feel the tropical countries.
What spreads after the 'aroma shock' is the 'rich and creamy sweetness'.
We designed it not just as a mere topic of conversation, but with the deliciousness as a sweet being an essential element, finishing it into a 'stinky and delicious!' taste that makes you want to eat it again and again.
We recommend enjoying it while sharing your impressions with friends and family.
Since the unique aroma is solidly reproduced, there is no doubt it will liven things up.
■ The 'Diversity in the Beverage Industry' We Deliver
Durian ice cream is a very niche and unique product.
However, we believe that giving shape to the value we believe is 'interesting!' and continuing to transmit it to the world will lead to our mission of 'providing diversity to the beverage industry.'
We hope this product will be an encounter with new surprise and fun for our customers.
