Omnipresent.
APPEARANCE/PRESENTATION—6.5
I’ve
mentioned before that I appreciate the runner featured on 5 Hour Energy
shots. I love running, and I love
the idea of energy products that will facilitate running. The purple, however, is an odd
choice—yeah, I know it’s grape and all, but an opalescent purple sunset? Maybe he’s running at the Mountains of
Madness.
TASTE—4
If
you don’t mind drinking 2 oz. of badly sweetened purple Triaminic, you
shouldn’t mind this at all. I
personally don’t think I’ll be revisiting it, but I have to admit—it’s better
than the berry version.
KICK
(INTENSITY)—9
Kick’s
pretty formidable, but at the same time, almost completely jitter-free—I’m
almost inclined to refer to it as “distilled intensity” to the idea across.
KICK
(DURATION)—10
Five
hours, very little crash.
THE
SHOT OVERALL—7.67
I
love the kick this shot delivers, but I’m really not wild about the taste. Still…next to the berry version, it
tastes alright. But then again, almost
anything next to the berry version tastes good, so if you don’t mind really
medicinal-tasting grape shots, this is probably right up your alley.

Spot on review. I'd forgotten about Triaminic but yeah, that's it. I don't mind the taste because it's up, it's down, it's gone, and I generally have an Arizona green tea in the saddle next to me on long rides, so that chases it without issues. No calories (4), of course no sugar. It's perfect for weight loss, training, long drives, and you're right--no buzz and no off the cliff afterwards. The guy who invented it deserves every million he's made. Nice site, thanks.
