APPEARANCE/PRESENTATION—6
To
begin with, I have to apologize for the picture. It would mean a lot more to readers out there if I went out
and took pictures of full bottles, but I’ve been sitting on these reviews for a
while, and I just need to get them posted—I hate being behind. Anyway, packaging is passable in terms
of informing consumers what it’s all about; I would love to see something to
make the “energize” part pop a bit more.
And…Sobe, I’m sorry, but life hasn’t been the same since you started
coming in plastic bottles. Major
points off for that.
TASTE—7
Sweet
and mildly earthy—connoisseurs will be furious; your everyday consumer will
probably think it’s alright. I did
appreciate how well the stevia was…wielded here. With stevia, if you use more than can fit on the end of a
toothpick, you are faced with a veritable holocaust of acrid sweetness that
absolutely refuses to leave your
mouth until at least a week has passed.
Here, it’s perceptible…but just barely. It almost makes the beverage taste minty.
KICK
(INTENSITY)—1
Unless
you count being refreshed as being energized, don’t look for a boost out of
this.
KICK
(DURATION)—1
Nothing
to speak of.
THE
DRINK OVERALL—3
It’s
true that most people out there aren’t looking to get wired off of this
beverage, but if you’re going to advertise this as being energizing, it
wouldn’t kill you to add about 60 more milligrams of caffeine. Until that happens, caffeine-thirsty
consumers will have to seek their buzz elsewhere.
