Creamy and almost buttery— a welcome characteristic that appears in chocolate milk from time to time. It’s a taste that I associate with the Parmalat I had in Lisbon, and here it is again. All flavors are in good proportion, it’s solidly above average.
Very ‘milky’ flavor that is a touch ‘plasticky’ as well— perhaps due to the packaging— as it’s nearly identical in composition to the Mizo Kakao Low Fat version, but tastes very different. It’s decently thin and smooth, but in order to find the cocoa flavor, you have to get beyond the dominant ‘other’ flavor.
Solidly drinkable and competent, with a slight skew towards sweetness. Everything feels as it should, and one could put this in his/her shopping cart without fear of ridicule.
Palate-destroyingly sweet, and if you can persevere through the onslaught, you will find that your efforts were in vain; there’s nothing else behind it. The flavor isn’t ‘bad’ per se, it’s just rather pointless with something this sweet (artificial or not). I think people are more willing to accept a less-sweet ‘Light’ product— it should’t be amped up with artificial sweeteners to make someone feel that they’re having something indulgent.
Strong cocoa flavor, good consistency, and enough sweetness to represent proudly the claim of chocolate milk. It’s lacking a bit on the cream and salt sides, which would elevate the experience significantly. As it stands though, it’s a decent product with plenty of potential.
Phony texture with lots of particulates, and a caramel-like sweetness and flavor that will make you double-check the ingredients.
Despite being (apparently) the same product as Billa Kakao, this did not have the strong earthy component, but instead had a straightforward chocolate flavor that melded nicely with the other features.
A remarkable drink in many respects-- it has a unique ingredient list (including caffeine and marula fruit puree) and also an unusual nutritional profile (4.1g fat, 5.7g protein, 163mg calcium per 100mL). The taste is creamy, decently chocolaty, and has a tiny hint of Bailey’s Irish Cream flavor. All in all, one to remember, and one to seek out if you’re in the Vienna area.
Foamy top but a pretty fair and true chocolate flavor throughout. The sweetness isn't overdone (thankfully, as it’s artificially sweetened) so no major red flags go up when you send this down your gullet.
After you puke, there's that residual stomach acid in your mouth that you continue to spit out over the course of your recovery. This 'beverage' captures that feeling rather accurately. And consuming it may even cause vomiting, kicking off some weird convergent cycle of unrelated experiences.
Nasty hazelnut flavor that tastes ok for the first millisecond and then turns foul for the remaining 95% of the experience. It's super thick, has some cream to it, but it’s nearly all funk and no cocoa.
Unique! It’s creamy, thin, a bit chalky, and the hazelnut flavor mixed in creates an almost cinnamon-y flavor that works surprisingly well with the rest of the product, perhaps because it nicely mutes the sweetness. This is not a flavor profile that I would seek out, but this formulation has won me over.
Great texture, but the flavor is where things go pear-shaped. The taste is akin to a sour vitamin (congruent with the product's scent, at least) and the sweetener makes me salivate post-swallow. Reminds me of when you get hit in the nose and your eyes immediately water, though you're not ‘crying’ per se.
A little dusty and drying to the mouth. Sweetness feels shallow and fake, but it’s not terrible for a protein fortified drink.
Phenomenal texture-- thin, yet creamy— and prominent cocoa flavor that is toward (but not fully in) the darker/sour/mature end of the continuum. I want to sip this slowly from a champagne glass, but I can’t seem to get the ‘slowly’ part down; this is almost too easily drinkable.
Fruity sweetness that you can smell before actually tasting it. The consistency is very good, and the included straw is unique and super neat (closed-end with 4 small round holes on each side)— but the taste is not up to par with even average chocolate milk.
Tasted bland upon first trial but I soon warmed up to the simplicity. It’s competent in all areas and nothing sticks out (for better or worse). Best boxed Slovak product I've had so far (which means it's better than the other one).
Highly unsweet, but with noticeable bitter cocoa flavor that has a tiny hint of anise to the finish. It’s fairly thick, grainy, and chalky as you might expect for a drink with nearly 10g of protein per 100mL, but it doesn’t reek of unnaturalness like many others do.
Wow— tons of cocoa flavor that refuses to leave your side after each indulgent sip. There’s definitely some grit to it, but the cream helps to sweep it away and you won't mind anyhow. Might even give you a buzz if you’ve been chocolate deprived.
Extremely thick, but maintains some creamy aspect which is the drink’s high point. There’s really no cocoa flavor, or no other flavor in particular that comes to the surface. It is like a toned-down, more pleasant version of the nasty thick cupped milkshakes that plague much of northern and central Europe.
