TIOVITA GOLD(チオビタ・ゴールド)


About
TIOVITA GOLD is an energy drink sold by the Taiho Pharmaceutical Company, the company that sells the "Tiovita" lineup of energy drinks.
First of all, this drink is very small. It comes in a 30ml bottle and you can drink it in one gulp basically. The smallness is partly due to the fact that this is a pharmaceutical energy drink. Most quasi-drugs will come in the form of a 150ml glas bottle whereas, most pharmaceutical energy drinks will come in a smaller, 50ml or 30ml glass bottle.
However, despite it's size, there are more ingredients that will make you more energetic than a normal energy drink(quasi-drug enegry drink) in Japan.

Taste
The taste is fruity of that of peach, but has a slightly bitter aftertaste. It doesn't really taste good.

Fante Yunker 3B

Taste: The taste is watery like all the other Yunker drinks I've tasted before. It tastes fruity but I'm not so sure what fruit.

Lipovitan Gold(リポビタン・ゴールド)


Taste: The taste of this is very strong. It has a sour, tangy taste with a slightly astringent aftertaste. However, it is not hard to drink as the it is quite sweet.  According to the manufacturer, it is supposed to taste like apricot, which it does.........the astringency is probably to replicate the taste of apricot.
