These days, the heat beats down on us as if a beautiful spring were nothing but an illusion.
It is depressing to think that the temperature will continue to rise even further.
What if there was an energy drink to keep you company through such a gloomy change of seasons?
This time, we are reviewing ZONe ENERGY TOUGHNESS GOLD, a collaboration product between ZONe ENERGY and Umamusume!
A Collaboration Product With the Golden Week Project "GOLD WEEK"! Reviewing "ZONe ENERGY TOUGHNESS GOLD"
Saiga NAKWe are reviewing ZONe ENERGY TOUGHNESS GOLD, a collaboration product with the Umamusume Golden Week project "GOLD WEEK"!
Named with inspiration from "GOLD WEEK" and the in-game recovery item "Toughness 30," "ZONe ENERGY TOUGHNESS GOLD"
features a flavor characterized by carrot and orange juice that completely recreates the 2022 collaboration can "ZONe TOUGHNESS," and it will be released nationwide in Japan starting Tuesday, May 26, 2026.
"ZONe ENERGY TOUGHNESS GOLD" will be available in two designs!
Here are the three characters, Fenomeno, Stay Gold, and Nakayama Festa.
And here are Orfevre, Dream Journey, and Gold Ship.
Both have a cool appearance and a sharp gaze that send shivers down your spine...!
The entire can also features a gold specification, creating a sense of unity.
The letters "UMAMUSUME in the ZONe" and the logo mark.
There are Umamusume elements everywhere, which pumps up the excitement!
Discovered the text "Energy drink with carrot."
I am surprised by this string of words that I am seeing for the first time.

Actually Drinking "ZONe ENERGY TOUGHNESS GOLD"!
Without further delay, let us drink ZONe ENERGY TOUGHNESS GOLD!
Saiga NAKWhen you open the lid, there is a faint scent of carrot.
The name "Energy Drink with Carrot" is certainly not just for show...!
The color is a slightly transparent orange.
Bringing it to my mouth while wondering if it tastes like carrot...
Surprisingly, it does not taste that much like carrot, but rather a mellow sweetness that harmonizes with the orange juice and is easy to drink spreads in your mouth.
That being said, there is no heavy lingering aftertaste, and it goes down your throat lightly.
The carbonation is not too strong either, so it is a beverage that everyone can enjoy just like juice!
