TIGER Newschool Classic

Posted on March 9, 2024 | Last updated January 29, 2025

TIGER Newschool Classic
Released in January 2021. This is TIGER Newschool Classic, which contains 20% fruit juice. In this review, I'll be discussing the one I purchased in the Czech Republic.

From the can design, you might imagine it to be a tropical fruit-flavored drink, but how does it actually taste? Let's dive into the detailed review.

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 Newschool Classic

When you open the can, a strong chemical scent typical of flavored drinks bursts out. The design suggests a fruit juice flavor with 20% fruit juice, but this creates a significant sense of mismatch... Let's give it a taste.
Flavor of TIGER Newschool Classic
Upon tasting, the flavor is a sweet and sour fruity chemical flavor, reminiscent of apple or pineapple. While there’s no chemical taste in the drink itself, the chemical flavor is created through artificial flavorings.

The 20% fruit juice flavor is overwhelmed by the strong chemical scent, making it hard to recognize the fruit flavors. It almost feels like the fruit flavors are ignored in favor of the overpowering chemical artificial fragrance, which disrupts the balance of the overall flavor.

I assume the developers aimed to create a "new classic energy drink flavor," as indicated by the product name, but... to be frank, the good aspects of *TIGER Newschool Classic* are hard to find. The impactful packaging makes you expect more from the taste, but you’re left feeling disappointed when you try it.

Energy Ingredients of TIGER Newschool Classic

Energy Ingredients of TIGER Newschool Classic
Contains 160mg of caffeine. The 20% fruit juice breakdown is 10% apple and 10% grape.

What surprised me when checking the nutritional information was that the sugar content was about half that of a regular *full sugar* energy drink, and it had a *half sugar* level instead. Naturally, the calorie count is also around 100 kcal, so it’s great to enjoy without any guilt. I didn’t even feel like I was drinking something half-sugared while having it.

The design features a striking combination of light blue and pink, with the *TIGER* logo standing out.

When I first picked it up in the store, I wondered what a "Newschool Classic" flavor would taste like, but as you can see from this review, it refers to a "new classic flavor" proposed by Tiger.

Design of TIGER Newschool Classic
The design features a flashy skull in bold fashion. The cap says "Juicy," but I imagine some people might end up drinking it thinking it’s a fruity juice flavor, only to realize it's just a chemical flavor.

The peace sign on the skull contains a palm tree, so the design might lead one to expect a tropical fruit juice flavor, which adds to the overall confusion.

Design of TIGER Newschool Classic
The design concept feels like something from the world of hip-hop, but for some reason, there are dinosaurs too, which adds an odd touch.

The energy poem on the can conveys a rather juvenile, "do what you want, old or new," vibe, like something out of a late-stage “chuunibyou” phase.
Design of TIGER Newschool Classic
The can itself features "Old school" and "New school," but the official website humorously replaces "Old school" with "Old Skull," adding a playful twist to the poem.

Design of TIGER Newschool Classic
The vibrant color scheme and large skull design make it stand out in stores. After buying it, I walked around with it, and it really grabbed attention. It’s one of those fun experiences you can have while traveling. If you're in Poland or the Czech Republic, make sure to check out the colorful and diverse *TIGER* series.
