New Infinite Kushi Flavors: A Treat for Your Taste Buds
Kushikatsu Tanaka Holdings, headquartered in Shinagawa, Tokyo, is set to launch two exciting new skewers in January 2026. These are the latest iterations of their popular concept, the 'Infinite Kushi', which has won the hearts of many. As the hugely popular 'Infinite Garlic Hormone Skewers' comes to an end in December 2025, two fresh flavors will delight guests at all locations, excluding the Tokyo Dome shop.
A Delicious Contrast
With over 10 million skewers sold, the previous version, 'Infinite Garlic Hormone Skewers', achieved massive popularity before its retirement. To maintain the enchanting charm of these skewers and to cater to a wider audience, Kushikatsu Tanaka has developed two distinctly flavored options for customers to enjoy based on their mood: the rich 'Miso Hormone Skewer' and the refreshing 'Yuzu Ponzu Hormone Skewer'. Both skewers are priced at a wallet-friendly 50 yen (55 yen including tax).
Introducing the Rich 'Miso Hormone Skewer'
The first option, known as the 'Infinite Miso Hormone Skewer', combines a specially crafted miso sauce used in popular dishes like 'Beef Tendon Miso' with a unique broth utilized in their famous 'Tanaka's Katsu Udon'. This harmonious blend of miso's rich sweetness and the umami of the broth creates an incredibly satisfying flavor experience. Perfectly balanced between sweetness and saltiness, this skewer is designed to pair excellently with alcoholic beverages, fueling endless enjoyment.
Meet the Refreshing 'Yuzu Ponzu Hormone Skewer'
On the flip side, the 'Infinite Yuzu Ponzu Hormone Skewer' offers a delightful contrast. It features a fragrant yuzu ponzu sauce, complemented by the same special broth and a zesty touch from the addition of spicy grated daikon. The tender beef hormones harmonize beautifully with the refreshing citrus notes. This skewer stands out due to its light and clean aftertaste, making it not only a great match for alcoholic drinks but also perfect for soft beverages and a welcome change from richer flavors.
Limited Time Opportunity
Though fans eagerly await the arrival of these new 'Infinite Kushi' skewers in January, it’s important to note the imminent retirement of the original 'Infinite Garlic Hormone Skewers'. Customers will be able to enjoy these beloved skewers until the end of December 2025. Within just six months, 10 million units were sold, highlighting the vibrant garlic flavor that many have come to love. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to savor a final taste of these original skewers before the new flavor transition occurs!
