N8 Refuel Energy Gel – Final Edition: Grape + Caffeine (Launching in January 2026!)
N8 has long been a quiet force in Malaysian sports nutrition, fuelling runners, cyclists, hikers, and gym-goers with seven crowd-favourite energy gel flavours: Green Apple, Pineapple, Lychee, Thai Mango, Berry, Orange, and Lime. Now, the line reaches its final and boldest edition: Grape with Caffeine.
This is N8’s first and only caffeinated gel, with 40 mg of caffeine in a single, easy-to-use sachet. Made for active adults 18 and above, it provides fast energy, easy portability, and a gentle focus boost to keep you sharp during long workouts, tough training sessions, and race-day efforts.
How much is 40 mg of caffeine?
It’s a modest dose – roughly the same as a weak cup of tea. Sensitivity varies, so be mindful of your total daily caffeine intake from all sources, including coffee, tea, energy drinks, and supplements.
What makes N8 Refuel Energy Gel Grape + Caffeine special?
- Smooth, easy-to-take grape flavour
Palatable even during high effort – refreshing, balanced, and never overly sweet. - 40 mg of controlled caffeine
Just enough to sharpen focus, reduce perceived exertion, and provide a mental lift without overstimulation. - Pocket-ready, fast-absorbing energy
Packed with rapid carbohydrates, it fuels endurance and keeps you going when you need it most. - Electrolytes for hydration support
Helps maintain fluid balance during prolonged sweat loss, keeping your body performing efficiently. - The only caffeinated gel in the N8 lineup
Ideal for athletes seeking an extra push during long sessions, peak intervals, or race-day efforts.
Think of it as precision fuel in your pocket: fast-acting carbs to keep your stride strong, with a controlled caffeine kick to enhance focus and intensity at crucial moments.
Note: This gel is a concentrated energy source and should not be used as a meal replacement.
Who is it for?
N8 Refuel Energy Gel Grape + Caffeine is designed for active adults 18+ who participate in endurance or high-intensity activities and are comfortable using caffeine strategically. Typical users include:
- Long-distance runners and cyclists
- Triathletes, ultra-athletes, and adventure racers
- Weekend warriors tackling long group rides or extended hikes
- Gym-goers who need sharper focus and a final push late in the session
It’s perfect for anyone who wants quick, easily absorbed carbohydrates and a mild caffeine boost in one convenient sachet.
How and when to use it?
- Before training or race start
Take one sachet 15–30 minutes before you begin for an alert, ready-to-go feeling.
- During long efforts
Consume one sachet every 45–75 minutes, depending on intensity, duration, and your personal tolerance. Always pair it with water to support smooth absorption.
- Caffeine caution
Do not exceed your personal caffeine tolerance. Monitor your total daily caffeine from all sources, including coffee, tea, energy drinks, and other supplements.
- Stay hydrated
Gels provide energy, not fluid. For best results, take each gel with sips of water, especially during prolonged training or racing.
Safety First: Who should avoid caffeinated energy gels
Caffeine affects everyone differently. To ensure safe use, the following groups are not encouraged to consume N8 Refuel Energy Gel Grape + Caffeine without medical advice, and in many cases should avoid it entirely:
- Under 18s: This product is formulated for adults only.
- Pregnant or breastfeeding women: Caffeine can cross the placenta and is present in breast milk; consult your healthcare provider before use.
- People with cardiovascular conditions, including uncontrolled high blood pressure, heart rhythm disorders, recent heart disease or angina.
- People with sleep disorders or high sensitivity to stimulants: Caffeine can disrupt sleep and recovery.
- Anyone with caffeine sensitivity: Even a small dose may trigger tremors, nausea, or a rapid heartbeat.
If you have any existing medical conditions, take medications, or are uncertain about caffeine’s effects on you, consult a healthcare professional before using this product.
Ready to try the grape kick?
N8 Refuel Energy Gel Grape + Caffeine is the bold finale to a beloved gel family – compact, tasty, and purpose-built for adult athletes who want carbohydrate fuel and a mild caffeine boost in a single, convenient sachet. It’s ideal for long training sessions, race-day pushes, and those moments when focus and energy matter as much as stamina.
Caffeine isn’t for everyone. If you’re under 18, pregnant, have heart conditions, anxiety, sleep issues, or take medications that may interact with caffeine, consult a healthcare professional before use.
Pro tip: always test gels during training. Track how your body responds, pair each sachet with water, and use them as part of a smart, informed fueling strategy. When race day comes, you’ll know exactly what to expect, and your body will thank you.
Alternatives and when to choose them?
Caffeine isn’t necessary for everyone. If you’re in one of the caution groups above, or simply prefer caffeine-free fueling, N8’s non-caffeinated gels (the original seven flavours) are a great choice. Other options to consider include:
- Sports drinks or chews – easier to sip during activity
- Real-food options – bananas, dates, or homemade energy bars for low-intensity sessions
- Electrolyte tablets – ideal when fluid and salt replacement is your priority
Storage & Practical Tips
- Keep it cool and dry: Store away from direct sunlight.
- Check before use: Do not consume if the sachet is damaged or expired.
- Test in training: Always try the gel during practice sessions before race day to ensure tolerance.
- Hydrate while you fuel: Never swallow a gel dry. Always take with water for optimal absorption.
