Product Review: LOTTE – Pokémon Ramune Candy

Photographs by MuchMunchies

These Pokémon candies by Lotte are just one of the latest candies with the popular Pokémon characters on them. Pokémon are the adorable creatures created by Game Freak and Nintendo and the stars of the eponymous game and television series. If you’re looking for more Pokémon related articles, including game revies, you can find them here.

LOTTE – Pokémon Ramune Candy
Price: ±€4,-

This pack consist of 5 different flavours of ramune candy tablets: pineapple, melon, cola, soda and grape. The Pokémon on the packaging can vary per pack, although the pineapple flavour is always represented by Pikachu.

Pineapple
The pineapple flavour is clearly present. This candy is slightly sour, slightly sweet. There’s a nice balance. Pikachu graced the packaging of this candy flavour.

Melon
This candy smelled and tasted like artificial melon. It was slightly sweet and had a bit of a sour aftertaste as well. The packaging of this flavour included a picture of Grookey, the grass-type starter from Pokémon Sword & Pokémon Shield.

Cola
Aside from a clearly present cola flavour this one also had a slight bitter flavour to it. Unlike the other candies it didn’t seem to have a very noticeable sour flavour to it. Scorbunny was the Pokémon on this packaging, the fire-type starter from Pokémon Sword & Pokémon Shield.

Soda
Another candy tablet that didn’t seem to have the sour element. It was sweet and did clearly have a soda flavour to it. The Pokémon on the packaging was the adorable Sobble, the water-type starter from Pokémon Sword & Pokémon Shield.

Druif
Red grape flavour was clearly present in this candy. It was slightly sour and slightly sweet, perfectly balanced. Mew was the Pokémon on this flavour’s packaging.

The texture of these candies reminded me a bit of pez. I didn’t dislike any of the flavours and I really enjoyed the slight sour flavours.

So Pokémon fans with a love for ramune candy tablets: Try and enjoy!
