Final Fantasy XII Potion drink offers a "mysterious taste"

FFXII Potion drink trial in Japan

The Final Fantasy XII Potion drink announced back in December has finally been unveiled to the public in Japan, and samplers are willing to allow that the clear blue beverage offers a "mysterious taste."

Of course, the event was a limited one as Suntory Limited sought a ready-made audience of FF fans to test the Potion soft drink out on first (they were attending a concert of Nobuo Uematsu's work for the RPG franchise after all). You gotta love free drinks at a pricey concert, even if they were a luminous shade of blue.

Whatever the circumstances, it was ascertained from Japanese press accounts that the Potion "tasted like a nutritional supplement drink with a fresh aftertaste." Until more informed Japanese translators prove otherwise, we hope that means it tastes good (in a non-medicinal way), so we can all intone together: "For relaxing times, make it Suntory time."
