- Japanese gourmet is also impressive: Tagame Cider! The taste and aroma are like green apples with a fruity touch. It’s drinkable as cider. But since it tastes normal, regular juice would suffice. Bugs aren’t for everyone, so a niche adjustment like Dr. Pepper might attract more buyers. Like me.

- Tagame Cider is one of the few insect-themed drinks in Japan. The tagame, in fact, is a large aquatic insect that is eaten primarily in Southeast Asia. Tagame is actually rich in protein and is gaining attention as a sustainable ingredient that is also environmentally friendly. This cider subtly incorporates tagame extract, and its apple-like flavor surprisingly stimulates the appetite. It is definitely something people interested in the culture of eating insects and reducing the environmental impact on the earth should try. However, choosing to purchase and drink cider containing tagame might require more than just a sense of adventure. While unique adjustments might be key to making this drink more appealing to a niche audience, it seems the author is already deeply entrenched in that niche. He might be aiming to conquer all the mysterious foods sold at Don Quijote instead.
