Pros

  • β€’Provides a delicious and creamy flavor when mixed with fairlife milk.
  • β€’High protein content in fairlife milk enhances the overall quality of the drink.
  • β€’Creates an energizing morning beverage that helps improve productivity.
  • β€’Perfect for busy college students looking for a quick and tasty boost.
  • β€’Addition of stevia provides a sweet touch without added sugars.

Cons

  • β€’Taste is described as unpleasant, likened to burnt chemicals rather than coffee.
  • β€’Some find the product has a burned taste and describe it as total garbage.
  • β€’There's a perceived decline in quality over the past 20 years.
  • β€’Compared unfavorably to the traditional Greek FrappΓ©.
  • β€’Reviewer discarded the coffee and returned to a different brand.
  • β€’Comparatively lower quality than an alternative brand, Taster's Choice.

Bottom Line

Nescafe offers a convenient and potentially delightful experience when paired with high-quality additives like fairlife milk, but the core product may disappoint those seeking authentic coffee flavor. Its taste has been criticized by some users as burnt and unpleasant, hinting that it may not live up to its historical reputation. If you’re after a more reliable choice, Taster's Choice might be worth exploring as an alternative.
