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 8,000 varieties of energy drinks from various countries. I am also active as a critic and expert, receiving media interviews.

Flavor of GHOST ENERGY WIDE AWAKEN WATERMELON

When opened, a sweet and refreshing melon-like aroma bursts out, along with a cool, fragrance-like scent. Ah, this might be the same flavor as the existing product, GHOST ENERGY WARHEADS SOUR WATERMELON... Let's give it a try.
Flavor of GHOST ENERGY WIDE AWAKEN WATERMELON
As soon as it hits the mouth, a powerful sourness explodes with a sharp sour apple flavor—exactly the same as GHOST ENERGY WARHEADS SOUR WATERMELON. Though it's marketed as a watermelon flavor, it stands out with its sour green apple taste, combined with a fragrance reminiscent of refreshing, clean-scented detergent.

Since it was released exclusively at the EDC venue, I initially thought it would be a unique flavor. However, it seems the contents are most likely the same as GHOST ENERGY WARHEADS SOUR WATERMELON.

Those who expected an original, exclusive flavor based on the EDC-only name and design were probably disappointed.

It contains 200mg of caffeine, 1000mg of Carnipure L-carnitine for fat burning, 1000mg of taurine, 150mg of α-GPC for enhanced cognitive function as a choline precursor, 100mg of NeuroFactor extracted from coffee, and 25mg of AstraGin—a combination of astragalus and Panax notoginseng to improve amino acid absorption.

Even the nutrition facts label on the back is beautifully designed with a gradient, which is part of the EDC-exclusive special design.

Design of GHOST ENERGY WIDE AWAKEN WATERMELON

Because GHOST ENERGY WIDE AWAKEN WATERMELON glows under blacklight, the white ghost logo appears slightly yellowed.

The overall design is psychedelic, as if you've tripped into another world.

Near the bottom of the can, the flavor image uniquely combines the “eye” logo from INSOMNIAC—the organizer of EDC—with the watermelon flavor.

Seeing this, you’d definitely assume it's a watermelon flavor created specifically for EDC...

The entire can features an embossed texture separated into smooth and rough areas, with a design inspired by EDC.

This embossing is subtler than other GHOST ENERGY series, becoming visible only under certain lighting conditions. It adds a cool touch to the otherwise flashy and psychedelic design.

On the back, the usual functional icon is replaced with EDC's eye logo, along with the EDC 2023 emblem—part of the special edition design.
