In 2001, while living in the United States, I encountered energy drinks through the dance scene and was deeply impressed. After returning to Japan, I found that energy drinks were considered novelty beverages, so I established a comprehensive website in 2013 to share the true appeal of energy drinks. As an energy drink enthusiast, I began drinking them seriously again, collecting over 7,000 varieties of energy drinks from various countries. I am also active as a critic and expert, receiving media interviews.
Flavor of Espresso MONSTER ESPRESSO AND CREAM
Upon opening, a pleasant, coffee-like aroma wafts through the air. Compared to the JAVA series and the same Espresso MONSTER VANILLA ESPRESSO, it has a fresher scent, without the sweetness or heaviness.
Let's give it a taste.
This is delicious! It has a mild sweetness, with the bitterness strongly emphasized, making it a proper coffee beverage.
Up until now, there hasn't been a proper coffee like this in the U.S. JAVA line. The standard in the past was overly sweet coffee.
Compared to previous sweet coffee energy drinks, ESPRESSO AND CREAM has several times more bitterness, while the sweetness is mild, yet the creamy, rich texture lingers, allowing you to enjoy a luxurious coffee flavor. The "creamy" aspect becomes clear once you taste it.
Energy Ingredients of Espresso MONSTER ESPRESSO AND CREAM
It contains 160mg of caffeine, and taurine is included, but the exact amount is not listed. Compared to Espresso MONSTER Vanilla, the caffeine content is 10mg higher. The higher coffee content might be why the bitterness in this Espresso & Cream is more pronounced.
This Coffee Energy Drink Should Be Released in Japan Too
Some of the previous JAVA Monster series products were imported from the Netherlands, though this was not highlighted. However, with this Espresso MONSTER series, the "IMPORTED" label is prominently displayed. The gold "IMPORTED" label is beautiful (*´ｪ`*).
The textured surface, dark and gold shine, and the classic coffee illustrations give it an overall luxurious feel.
With a gold top and black euro tab, the can design, from the tab to the rest, reflects a premium coffee energy drink with high attention to detail.
