ROCKSTAR REVOLT KILLER BLACK CHERRY

Posted on August 31, 2017 | Last updated February 10, 2025

ROCKSTAR REVOLT KILLER BLACK CHERRY
The third release in the Rockstar Revolt series, Killer Black Cherry. This flavor is a staple in the U.S., Canada, and Europe, featuring a classic black cherry and chemically-infused mixed fruit flavor.

But what really stands out is this gray camo design—it's absolutely stunning. I can’t help but admire it every time I see it (●´ω`●)

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 ROCKSTAR REVOLT KILLER BLACK CHERRY

The color is a deep, dark red, characteristic of black cherry. The can design perfectly matches the color of the drink, making it even more exciting to open ((o(´∀`)o))

As soon as I take a sip, a rich and distinct aroma spreads, followed by a sweet cherry and mixed fruit chemical flavor. It has a taste reminiscent of Dr Pepper, delivering a fully artificial cherry flavor without hesitation.

Both the taste and aroma are quite strong, providing a satisfying experience, but it's not too heavy on the palate. I can easily drink the entire 473ml can without feeling overwhelmed.

Since there's absolutely no real fruitiness, those expecting the natural depth of black cherries might be disappointed. It's just a typical chemical cherry flavor. However, maybe that's exactly why it became a staple not only in the U.S. but also in Canada and Europe.

Energy Ingredients of ROCKSTAR REVOLT KILLER BLACK CHERRY

Contains 240mg of caffeine and 2000mg of taurine.

It's surprising to see this much caffeine packed into what would otherwise be just another cherry-flavored carbonated drink.

Design of ROCKSTAR REVOLT KILLER BLACK CHERRY

The can has a smooth, matte finish. The combination of gray camo and red accents fits the "Killer Black Cherry" name perfectly. Personally, I prefer the camo design of the Revolt series over other brands' camo-themed cans. The mix of gray, black, and red on this one is just stunning.

Silver top with a black tab. The silver top gives it a slightly lighter feel, but I'd love to see a black top with a red tab—it would match so well (●´ω`●)

In Canada, Killer Black Cherry was re-released in 2019 with the "Big Star" design.

Unlike the matte finish of the U.S. version, the Canadian can has a glossy, smooth surface. The deeper red and glossy finish give off the impression of an even richer cherry flavor. There are also variations with black and pink tabs, both of which look great.

Finally, Killer Black Cherry has arrived in Canada. As I mentioned in the flavor review, this is a classic, staple flavor, and I’ve always felt it should be available in more countries. While Europe has a zero-calorie version, I hope the regular version becomes widely available worldwide as well.
