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 TIGER BUBBLE GUM

When opened, a chemical scent reminiscent of laundry detergent or fabric softener bursts out. When poured into a glass, the glowing clear blue color makes it look extremely unhealthy…!
Flavor of TIGER BUBBLE GUM
When you take a sip, a sweet and sour berry mix bubble gum flavor spreads across your tongue. The intense chemical detergent scent wraps around the sweet and sour taste.

If you separate the taste and aroma, you'll notice the strong sweetness and acidity of berry fruits, offering a candy-like, non-juice taste. The addition of a strong detergent or fabric softener-like aroma creates a chemically fruity vibe, and ultimately, a bubble gum flavor is formed.

If you want to enjoy the bubble gum flavor, it might be best not to chill it too much. If it becomes too cold, the gum flavor seems to dissipate too much. I found that drinking it at room temperature brings out the most bubble gum-like taste.

Both the taste and aroma are strong, but it's actually a half-sugar drink with only half the usual amount of sugar, and it also contains 20% fruit juice. With the flavor and aroma so intense, no one would realize it's a half-sugar drink. The detergent-like chemical scent is so overpowering that it almost negates the fruit juice content, resulting in an energy drink where various sensory impressions get congested. Despite this, it seems to have a steady popularity as a long-selling product, especially in Poland and other countries.

Energy Ingredients of TIGER BUBBLE GUM

It contains 160mg of caffeine. No other energy ingredients are included. The 20% fruit juice comes entirely from apples.

The sugar content is under 20g, which is slightly less than a half-sugar drink. It's surprising that such a rich taste can be enjoyed with such little sugar, even though it contains fructose.

Since the "Bubble Gum Flavor" doesn't specify a particular fruit gum flavor, it might be surprisingly difficult to decide what taste to go for and how to design the packaging, but this pop vibe is easy to understand and can evoke a variety of different flavors and atmospheres depending on how it's interpreted.

The TIGER ENERGY series, which consistently releases numerous limited-edition flavors, also puts a lot of thought into their designs every time. Just imagining the process of translating the flavor image into the can design is interesting. Those who travel to places like Poland or the Czech Republic will find new releases every time, making it an exciting way to enjoy energy drink travel.
