DORTMUND, Germany, Sept. 20, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- At InterTabac 2025, the world's largest trade show for tobacco and smoking accessories, VAPORESSO unveiled its newest flagship product, the XROS PRO 2. The launch marks not only the upgrade of the flagship XROS PRO line, but also a bold statement of the brand's determination to set new professional benchmarks in endurance, design, and flavor—redefining what a flagship vaping device should be.
Redefining Flagship Endurance: Unprecedented 2000mAh Battery Capacity
The XROS PRO 2 features an industry-leading 2000mAh battery, the largest ever in its category. With 67% more capacity than the first-generation XROS PRO and 33% more than top competitors, it eliminates battery anxiety by delivering extended, reliable performance. This isn't just a larger battery—it sets a new standard for flagship endurance, where "all-day use" is redefined as the baseline, not the goal.
Aerospace-Grade Innovation: Magnesium Alloy—Rare, Refined, Revolutionary
Breaking industry convention, the XROS PRO 2 becomes the first vaping device to adopt aerospace-grade magnesium alloy—a material renowned for its ultra-lightweight strength but rarely used in consumer electronics due to its high manufacturing complexity. Weighing only 65g, it marries durability with unprecedented portability, proving that premium materials are non-negotiable for professional flagships. Complemented by a hidden display and unibody design, it balances functional clarity with minimalist elegance, reflecting a brand commitment to uncompromising quality.
Flavor Stability: Super Pulse Technology Resets MTL Standards
The XROS PRO 2 redefines MTL flavor consistency by adapting super pulse technology, previously exclusive to high-powered DTL devices. This innovation maintains output stability from full to low battery, eliminating the flavor fluctuations that have long plagued MTL devices. Paired with the upgraded COREX 3.0 heating system—enhancing thermal efficiency and e-liquid adaptability—it ensures pure, consistent taste from first to last puff, elevating the professional MTL experience to new heights.
The XROS PRO 2 isn't just an upgrade; it's a redefinition of flagship excellence. With its record-setting battery, rare aerospace materials, and unrivaled flavor stability, it sets new industry benchmarks, proving that premium vaping lies in pushing boundaries others deem untouchable.

SINGAPORE, Jan. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Kerry, a global leader in taste and nutrition, has released its 2026 Supplements Taste Charts for Asia Pacific and the Middle East, highlighting the region's evolving taste preferences and the rise of flavour‑forward, lifestyle‑led supplements and sports nutrition.
Across Asia Pacific, Middle East & Africa (APMEA), supplements are increasingly viewed as part of daily wellbeing rather than an occasional health support. Consumers are focused on benefits such as sleep, immunity, digestion, stress management, energy and emotional balance, with taste and texture now strongly influencing continued purchase and long term use.
The global supplements market is projected to reach US$107 billion by 2029 with APMEA continuing to show strong momentum. China, India, Southeast Asia and the Middle East are driving adoption, supported by rising health awareness, busier lifestyles and growing interest in personalised nutrition.
Flavour‑Forward Trends Redefining Supplements
Consumers are moving away from traditional pills toward more flavour-forward formats such as gummies, chews, drink mixes, dissolving strips and powder blends. Here, flavour plays a critical role in masking functional bitterness, reinforcing emotional cues and signalling naturality or efficacy. Three major flavour movements stand out across Asia Pacific and the Middle East:
Simplicity Amplified
Consumers are gravitating toward transparency and ingredient authenticity. Flavours inspired by whole foods, botanicals, fermented notes, and lightly‑sweet or sour profiles signal purity and nutrient‑dense simplicity. Popular flavours include citrus, yuzu, ginger, turmeric, matcha, elderflower, cultured dairy, and yogurt. These pair naturally with today's lifestyle-friendly formats where the flavours enhance a product's perceived health benefits.
Category Crashers
As mealtimes blur and routines shift, consumers aren't sticking to traditional food, beverage, or supplement boundaries. Category Crashers spotlights the emergence of hybrid products that break the mould: savoury energy bars, confectionery-inspired supplement formats, coffee‑infused condiments and more. These hybrids are about creative formats and unexpected pairings that reflect how people eat today.
Maximalist Flavour
Maximalism takes centre stage in 2026, spurred by younger consumers who want bold, layered flavours that deliver high sensory impact. Dessert‑style profiles, sour intensities, spicy‑accented formats, and flavour stacks such as tiramisu passionfruit or brownie chocolate create memorable, intense taste experiences. This trend reinforces supplements as lifestyle treats rather than functional obligations.
Within these trends, sports nutrition continues to broaden beyond athletes to active consumers who expect flavour to match function. Simplicity Amplified is seen in refreshing citrus hydration blends, botanically‑infused recovery options, and natural dairy flavours in high‑protein systems; Category Crashers bring café‑style profiles, soda‑inspired electrolytes and fruity energy shots; and Maximalist Flavour is evident in extreme sour or spicy pre‑workouts, and multi‑layered profiles in protein shakes.
"Consumers across APMEA are demanding more from their proactive health products, not only clinically supported benefits, but also flavours that excite," said Olivier De Salmiech, Vice President, Health & Therapies, Kerry Asia Pacific, Middle East & Africa. "When products taste great, has science-backed benefits, and integrate naturally into everyday life, they become wellness rituals consumers look forward to."
