Spicy Series Cranks Up the Heat, Exploring Unprecedented Spicy Peaks

Demae Iccho's Spicy Series has been upgraded, not only curating a variety of distinctive and popular spicy flavours, but also redefining traditional boundaries of spice intensity. The full series features five bold flavours, including Korean Spicy Seafood, Peppercorn Chilli Sesame Oil, Thai Green Curry, Mala XO Sauce Seafood and Chilli Volcano. The series packaging prominently showcases the new "Shin Chai" mascot, highlighting the elevated spice levels across the range. Most notably, the debut of the Chilli Volcano flavour aims to take heat-seeking consumers to the absolute peak of the spicy spectrum. The Chilli Volcano broth is fueled by a heavy-handed sprinkle of chili powder, which creates a double dose of spice, yielding an unexpectedly stimulating and intensely flavorful sensation. Please stay tuned for the upcoming "Demae Iccho x BLUE LOCK" Spicy Series Special Edition, which will hit the shelves in mid-September and is sure to delight the BLUE LOCK fans.
