2Japan
Japan approaches ice cream with the same creativity and precision found in its culinary traditions. Beyond classic vanilla and chocolate, you’ll find flavors such as matcha green tea, black sesame, sakura (cherry blossom), sweet potato, and even wasabi.Â
Soft-serve cones are wildly popular, especially in regional specialty flavors reflecting local ingredients. Hokkaido, famous for its dairy farms, produces exceptionally rich milk ice cream. Japanese ice cream stands out for its aesthetic presentation, subtle sweetness, and unexpected but harmonious flavor combinations.
