ooo, i have not seen that UCC blended coffee before... i have a sangaria can that sounds similar to the one you described, amusingly the brand name is "Quality Coffee", the kind of name that would be guaranteed cheap junk if it was an american product

Seems to be separate from their main "Quality Coffee" series, and I never saw it in Japan. According to this page it has a coconut sub-flavour, which I definitely never noticed.

Hard to tell based on my destroyed post-COVID tastebuds, but I think the UCC Blend is quite a bit better than the Sangaria. Although I can't ignore the possibility that the can's colour/design is playing a major role in this judgment.

Also I'd like to take this opportunity to admit that it took me about four months of living in Japan before I realized that カフェオレ meant "Café au lait" and not the phrase I kept saying in my head: "Café, olé!"
