Notes since filming: More than two years after filming, and I still think this is the best bang for the buck as far as instant tonkotsu goes. I have no idea why Nissin Raoh’s artificial pork flavor sets off my tastebuds so badly while this one doesn’t, but I still happily buy this one regularly.
Original video description:
Today’s review focuses on a different Nissin tonkotsu product after the disappointing flavor of Nissin’s Raoh tonkotsu. This variety was the very first instant tonkotsu I ever tried back at the beginning of the pandemic, and I was curious to see how it held up. This is Nissin’s Demae with Black Garlic Oil Tonkotsu Ramen!
