Takis Teriyaki

Sweet, savoury teriyaki sauce with warmth built in.

We do our best to get the details right, but we're not health or dietary professionals, and we're only human. If you spot something that's wrong or out of date, let us know and we'll fix it as quickly as we can.

What does it taste like?

Takis Teriyaki swaps the usual chilli-and-lime base for a sweet, savoury teriyaki sauce flavour, closer to a takeaway glaze than the citrus-forward core range. Sugar and spices lead, with a background warmth building in behind the sweetness rather than hitting first. We spotted it marked 'NEW' on the bag at a Heron Foods shop, our first sighting of it anywhere in the UK, with a heat gauge reading 'Medium' rather than the numbered scale used elsewhere in the range.

Is Takis Teriyaki vegan & gluten free?

Nothing animal-derived shows up on the European listing we've checked for this recipe, so vegans and vegetarians should be fine here, though we haven't yet checked this against our own UK bag in full, in the same boat as Blue Heat and most of the range.

The flavour enhancer disodium 5'-ribonucleotides (E635) carries the same fish-meat-or-fermentation question mark as the E631/E627 additives elsewhere in the range, and there's a 'may contain soya, milk, and gluten' warning too. If you have coeliac disease, Coeliac UK can advise on products with this warning. As with the rest of the Takis lineup, there's no halal certification.

UK availability

We haven't spotted Takis Teriyaki at any of the five main UK supermarkets yet. We found it ourselves at a Heron Foods shop, and we'd guess it's in more than just the one we visited. Amazon UK and American Fizz are worth a look too, though neither had it in stock when we checked.

We've popped a photo from the shelf where we found it in our UK buying guide – we'll update this page as soon as we spot it somewhere else.

Takis Teriyaki vs other flavours

Teriyaki's closest sibling by heat is Dragon Sweet Chilli and Volcano, both Hot (3/5) on Barcel's scale, though the flavour couldn't be more different: a savoury-sweet sauce rather than a chilli character, closer in spirit to Guacamole or Smokin' BBQ if you're after flavour over fire, just with a bit more heat behind it than either of those Mild options.

Frequently asked questions

What does Takis Teriyaki taste like?

Sweet and savoury, built around a teriyaki sauce rather than the usual chilli and lime. Sugar and spices lead, with a gentle warmth building in behind the sweetness rather than hitting you straight away.

How hot is Takis Teriyaki?

The bag's own heat gauge says 'Medium', with a little thermometer icon, rather than the numbered scale you'll see on the rest of the UK range. That puts it roughly alongside our Hot (3/5) flavours like Dragon Sweet Chilli and Volcano, though the sweetness up front makes it feel like a different kind of heat.

Where can I buy Takis Teriyaki?

Heron Foods is the only place we've found it so far, and we'd guess it's in more than just the one shop we visited. Amazon UK and American Fizz are other places to try, though neither had it in stock when we last looked. It hasn't reached Aldi, Co-op, Farmfoods, Iceland, or Morrisons yet. See our UK buying guide for the full stockist list.

Is Takis Teriyaki vegan?

Looks like it, from what we can see – nothing animal-derived in the ingredients on the European listing for this recipe. It's brand new to us, so we haven't gone through our own bag's ingredients panel in full just yet. See our complete UK vegan guide for the rest of the range.

Is Takis Teriyaki halal?

No certification, same as every other Takis flavour. The flavour enhancer E635 (disodium 5'-ribonucleotides) can come from fish, meat, or fermentation, and Barcel hasn't told us which for this one – the same grey area that runs through the rest of the range. See our Takis halal guide for the full picture.

Is Takis Teriyaki gluten free?

No. It carries a 'may contain soya, milk, and gluten' warning. If you have coeliac disease, Coeliac UK can advise on products with this warning. No Takis flavour, UK or import, is certified gluten free. See our Takis gluten-free guide for more.
