MINISTOP released its autumn seasonal offering, Japanese Chestnut Soft Serve, for the first time in 2 years. The article also introduces the lineup, including Mont Blanc-style toppings, centered on the harmonious combination of Japanese chestnut aroma and rich milk flavor.
MINISTOP released its autumn seasonal offering, Japanese Chestnut Soft Serve, on 4 September 2026. While a different autumn dessert took center stage last year, Japanese chestnut has returned as the star flavor in a soft serve offering for the first time in 2 years.
As the standard Japanese Chestnut Soft Serve, it has a pale milky color and a pronounced chestnut aroma. In the mouth, its rich, smooth texture is accompanied by the gradually spreading roasted flavor of Japanese chestnuts.
The milk's richness is also clearly present, while the sweetness does not linger heavily on the finish. The review says it offers a more subdued flavor than the Japanese Chestnut Soft Serve tasted 2 years ago.
In addition to the Japanese Chestnut Soft Serve, the lineup includes "Reward Soft Serve - Blissful Mont Blanc -," topped with Mont Blanc cream, and Japanese Chestnut Mix Soft Serve. The article concludes by expressing an interest in comparing the different offerings in the series.
