Kanro Corporation is introducing a new limited-edition throat candy flavor just in time for summer: the “Kenko Nodo Ame Tatakau Manuka Honey Lemonade.” This refreshing candy combines the soothing qualities of Manuka honey with the bright taste of lemonade, offering a cool and comforting treat during Japan’s hot season.
Since 1981, Kanro’s “Kenko Nodo Ame” series has been beloved for its blend of 31 traditional Japanese and Chinese herbal extracts, designed to provide a gentle daily care experience. The popular “Tatakau Manuka Honey” variant features New Zealand’s MGO115+ Manuka honey, known for its mellow sweetness and subtle herbal notes. Now, with the addition of concentrated lemon juice, the new lemonade flavor offers a crisp, revitalizing twist perfect for summer.
