This is a review of the original flavor from the MONSTER ENERGY Extra Strength series, MONSTER ENERGY Extra Strength Super Dry, which incorporates nitrogen for a smooth texture.

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.

MONSTER ENERGY Extra Strength Super Dryの味

This energy drink has a citrus fruit flavor. When you open the can, a fresh orange scent instantly fills the air. It’s similar to when you peel a tough-skinned orange, and the scent stays on your hands for a while (；´∀｀). The aroma lingers for a long time.

The color is a beautiful yellow-green, but the scent and taste are all about orange. You may also detect a slight tang from lime or a grapefruit-like sourness without bitterness, but the main flavor is unmistakably orange. It’s a strange but wonderful combination.

Though it’s orange-like, it’s completely different from Chaos. There’s a stronger tangy citrus note, especially from orange and lime, with a refreshing citrus aftertaste that leaves a clean and crisp scent.

Super Dry is a flavor I absolutely love, and I’ll definitely be repeating this one v(´∀｀*v). I think most energy drink fans will be satisfied with it. It’s a masterpiece.

"Extra Strength" MONSTER ENERGY

In the Extra Strength version, 160mg of caffeine, which is usually found in 473ml cans, is concentrated in just 355ml. The flavor and aroma are all amplified. Even without spices like ginger, it has an intense kick. The scent is so strong that even after washing the can, it still smells like energy drink.

The taste and aroma linger in your mouth for a while after finishing, making it feel extremely potent.

355ml is the ideal amount for such a strong flavor

For a drink with such a strong citrus tang and sweet aroma, 355ml seems like the perfect amount. It’s just the right size to make you crave more. Since energy drinks are distinct from regular juices due to their rich sweetness and powerful fragrance, finishing them in a reasonable amount feels just right.

It’s one of those energy drinks that makes you want to have it again ((o(´∀｀)o)).
