ZONe graffiti holic

Sweet and Gentle Fruit Mix Flavor

When opening the can and pouring it into a glass, the fruity aroma and color are very similar to ZONe Utopia and Pipeline Punch... it felt like déjà vu. The scent is wonderful, so I expect the taste to be just as good. Let's give it a try.

Upon tasting, it has a sweet peach, tangy strawberry, and tropical fruit mix flavor with a soft, fruity aftertaste.

With 18% fruit juice content, it's not overly rich or heavy, but rather has a refreshing sweetness and tartness that creates a juicy and delicious drink. Of course, there’s no chemical aftertaste, making it a great choice for those who typically dislike energy drinks.

The fruity flavor is strong and addictive, yet it has a clean finish, which means before I knew it, I had finished the 500ml can. The high-quality flavor allows you to enjoy it without getting bored.

However, I can't quite tell the difference between ZONe Utopia and ZONe graffiti holic... both taste so similar. So, I decided to try them side by side.

Comparing ZONe graffiti holic and ZONe Utopia

On the left is graffiti holic, and on the right is Utopia. I suspected their tastes were similar, but I didn’t realize their colors were so alike.

Both look identical to the naked eye, but upon closer inspection, graffiti holic appears to have a slightly stronger pink hue. The scents are indistinguishable.

When tasting them side by side, the flavors are so close that you wouldn’t notice a difference if you drank them separately. Both have the same tropical fruit mix base flavor. Most people probably wouldn’t compare these two side by side, so they would likely feel that "ZONe graffiti holic tastes just like ZONe Utopia."

The difference is that ZONe graffiti holic has a slightly more tangy and refreshing taste, while ZONe Utopia is more sweet and smooth throughout. This slight tartness enhances the flavor of ZONe graffiti holic, and it’s thanks to this balance of acidity that the 500ml can can be enjoyed without tiring of it.

While the difference may be hard to notice without a side-by-side comparison, tasting them together made me realize what makes ZONe graffiti holic so delicious. Personally, I preferred the flavor of ZONe graffiti holic.

Looking at the ingredients, ZONe graffiti holic contains strawberry, which is an added touch compared to Utopia. Otherwise, there are very few differences between them.

ZONe graffiti holic Energy Ingredients

It contains 75mg of caffeine, 500mg of arginine, and 5g of palatinose. The caffeine content is low, so there’s no risk of caffeine addiction, but like the other ZONe drinks, this one is still a high-carb beverage, with a staggering 78.5g of carbohydrates! It's something to watch out for when it comes to weight gain and lifestyle-related diseases.

ZONe graffiti holic Design

ZONe graffiti holic was released in four different designs, each created by one of four artists. Each can is colorful and unique, with a bold and powerful design that covers the entire can—truly impressive.

There have been other energy drinks worldwide that feature artist collaborations, but the designs on these cans break away from the usual brand image in a refreshing and creative way. The four designs for ZONe graffiti holic are no exception—they’re really cool.

As is common with the ZONe series, the artist's name is displayed on the version label at the top of the can. If you're curious about the artists, you can scan the QR code on the back of the can for more details!

By the way, the official version of ZONe graffiti holic is "Ver. 1.0.0," the same as other ZONe flavors.

This time, the design wasn't directly printed on the can, but rather wrapped with a printed film.

The film is very durable, and the color reproduction is excellent, almost indistinguishable from direct printing. (Limited edition design cans wrapped in film are common in overseas energy drinks, but most are not as high-quality as ZONe’s—those tend to be much cheaper looking.)

Perhaps in the future, we’ll see more ZONe cans with multiple designs like this.

*Note: A total of 16 wrapped cans were released for ZONe TOUGHNESS (released February 15, 2022).*

パイプラインパンチの500ml版って感じで美味しかった。ユートピアと味は同じかと思ったけどレビューで飲み比べてくれていて何となく違うんだなあということはわかった。ユートピアかグラフィックホリックどちらかいらなくなるのではないか。

グラフィティホリックの味はユートピアに似ていました。zoneは先の新作も過去作に似た味が発売されたのでネタ切れの予感しかしません。

ユートピアと同じって全然違いますよ
グラフィティホリックの方はストロベリーの味が少し強い
あとパイプラインパンチと同じって書いてる方味音痴ですか⁉️
ユートピアもグラフィティもピンクモンスターを越えられない。
ピンクモンスター〉ユートピア〉グラフィティって感じですね。

たまに味音痴とか意味不明なことを言い出す人が出てきますが気にしない気にしない。
グラフィティホリックがユートピアと似ているのは確かで、味の違いは飲み比べてはっきりするし、飲み比べた結果味変したみたいな感じもわかってくる。
個人的には同じトロピカルフルーツフレーバーならグラフィティホリックが自分好みの味でした。ブノシーさんが言うようにどちらかがなくなっても不思議ではないと思います。順当に行けばユートピアがなくなるのかもしれません。

モンスターのパイプラインパンチの上位互換。同じ値段で量が多い、ベリー系の後味のおかげで甘ったるさが残らずスッキリ。500mlあるのに飲み干せてしまう。最高。
