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 XYIENCE BLU POMEGRANATE
Since I hadn’t checked the flavor before drinking it, I was surprised by the strong blueberry scent that spread as soon as I opened the can. XYIENCE usually doesn’t have such a strong scent when opened.
And upon taking another look at the can, it’s pomegranate flavored!? With this scent, I thought blueberry alone would have been enough, but I poured it into a glass, expecting XYIENCE’s unique zero-calorie formula to deliver its usual high-quality performance.
The color is a rich purple with good transparency. The scent and color are very clear.
So, I took a sip, enjoying the strong aroma, which is rare for XYIENCE...
The taste is predominantly the rich sweetness and tartness of blueberry. The strong scent that lingers in the nose makes it feel like you’re not drinking a zero-calorie drink at all. The blueberry flavor is prominent, but the aftertaste is excellent. When it comes to zero-calorie, zero-sugar, I couldn’t care less.
The blueberry flavor is strong, but after drinking, the fresh tartness and refreshing feeling of pomegranate come through, making the rich blueberry flavor fade away smoothly. This is something I could drink again and again.
Energy Ingredients of XYIENCE BLU POMEGRANATE
With 176mg of caffeine, 2000mg of taurine, plus guarana, ginseng, and carnitine, this has a fairly standard ingredient profile.
Exceptional Balance in Zero-Calorie Drinks
The BLU POMEGRANATE managed to brilliantly camouflage the typical “zero” blueberry oddness using the pomegranate flavor, which was a big surprise.
The blueberry and pomegranate flavors blend together perfectly without clashing, and each flavor plays its part beautifully. The satisfaction of the rich blueberry flavor and the refreshing tartness of the pomegranate aftertaste is wonderful. It’s rare to find an energy drink where the distinctive parts of multiple flavors are so clearly defined.
After trying many energy drinks, I’ve noticed various attempts at flavor reproduction and taste improvement, but it’s quite rare to find an energy drink that allows you to enjoy multiple flavors seamlessly without any awkwardness.
