This is the renewed Craft Boss package. There are three types, ' latte ', ' black ', and ' fine sugar ', but I don't know what has changed at this rate ...



I put the new version on the left and the old version on the right and compared them. The new version is thinner and longer, and the label is narrower so you can see what's inside. The capacity is 500 ml and there is no change.



The label has words such as 'gentle richness' that indicate the characteristics of the taste, but the new version also has the characters 'craft boss' added to make the product name easier to understand.



First, let's compare the latte.



Milk and coffee are used as raw materials, but there is no particular difference between old and new.



Both calories were 30 kcal per 100 ml, and the new version had a 0.1 g reduction in carbohydrates.



If you pour it into a cup and compare it, the new version is slightly lighter in color.



Comparing the drinks, the old version has a rich taste of milk components and the flavor of coffee beans is slightly felt, while the new version suppresses the aroma of milk components and the aroma of coffee beans is more assertive. The taste that comes. The new version is cleaner and easier to drink.



In addition, the bottle is characterized by a bumpy bottle. The new version of the bottle is clearly softer to hold than the previous version.



Then I will drink black.



Both raw materials are simple with only coffee beans and spices.



The calorie is 0 kcal per 100 ml, and there is no particular difference in nutritional components.



Comparing the drinks, the new version has more sourness and a richer aroma. The clearness and slight burnt odor that were in the old version have been eliminated, and the finish is more rich in coffee.



At the end, I will drink fine sugar.



The ingredients of the new version are listed as 'coffee (coffee beans)', while the old version is only listed as 'coffee'.



Calories are reduced by 4kcal, 19kal per 100ml for the new version and 23kcal per 100ml for the old version. Carbohydrates are also reduced from 3.6g to 2.4g per 100ml.



Like the latte, the new version of the fine sugar is a little lighter in color.



Compared to drinking, the new version is sweeter and has a clearer flavor. The old version feels a little watery, but the new version has lost it, and the bitterness is more pronounced due to the increased sweetness, making it richer.



When I drank and compared each of the three types, the flavor of the coffee beans increased, and the finish was more tasty. The taste hasn't changed significantly, so it seems that old drinkers will still enjoy it.

The price of Craft Boss is 160 yen excluding tax for black and 170 yen excluding tax for latte and fine sugar, and it is scheduled to appear on March 23, 2021.
