does it have that nasty protein shake taste and after taste
177561
Nope.. if someone gave me this blind, I would think it's a regular shake. Really enjoyable taste.
177562
Nope. Tastes awesome. Two scoops with one 16 oz bottle cold water shaken. The colder the better.

I don't think the unflavored has a protein taste but the flavored ones I have had do. The unflavored is tasteless.

well to be honest with you it depends what flavor , some of the isopure flavors have that taste at the end. i will recommend you , chocolate, mango peach or banana cream . but also take in consideration regardless the flavor this protein actually works !

the low carb dutch chocolate tastes really good. I mix it with ice, coconut milk, splash of strong coffee and splash of heavy cream and blend to make a low carb protein smoothie. it tastes similar to a frosty at Wendy's.

Yes it does. The unflavored is horrible and the vanilla, while having a flavor is really bad as well.

As long as you stick with the Dutch Chocolate, you're good. It's the best tasting protein shake I've ever found, and I've tried quite a few!

I blend it with frozen fruit and diet v8 splash and you can't even taste the powder. It's like an awesome fruit smoothie, packed with protein!

If you mix it with warm or hot liquids like broths, stir very quickly and it will form "threads" like an egg drop soup. I put it in chicken broth and pretend the threads of protein are noodles. Since the unflavored powder has no taste, it tastes like whatever it is mixed in.

I bought the mint flavor and it's not bad at all. I have taken it by the spoonful, but most of the time I mix it into a smoothie. I haven't noticed an after taste either.

Well I take this whey specifically because of its lack of flavor. Its not completely flavourless; its milky. If you dissolved 1 oz in 8oz of water it will taste like watery milk. It has no sweet or sour ir bitter or savory flavor, its simply milky. Also I'd like to mention it doesnt dissolve easily with a spoon, a blender works better. I always end up drinking undisolved bits but I don't mind it becaise i know its a low processed whey. But take that into account. Other than that I think this whey is excellent for weight loss, I take it after weight training with water and it helps me reach my protein goals.

I personally do not taste a bad after taste. I believe does have some kind of sugar substitute but doesn't seem to leave an aftertaste like aspartame does.

It does have a bit of an after taste, but I think most powders do. This is just a little more chalky because there is no sweetener of any kind to hide it. I have never used it in just fruit and ice smoothies without some sort of dairy/non dairy so I'm not certain how it would taste. I do have to say that for what is in this powder, I am happy with its non flavor and versatility.

yes. I believe it does. I hope it helps. but I don't like the taste texture though

I just checked my bottle and it said 100% sprulina. It tastes like sprulina, no where close to protein shake. I would suggest against using it in place of typical protein shake. Do some research to decide how you want to use it.

It is somewhat chalky, just like most proteins, if you want a yummy shake you either have to go to Wendy's or put some additives in. It isn't gritty at all. The texture depends on what you make it with; ex. milk-smoothest, water-runnier.

Yup, I mix it with my protein shake everyday. You will barely taste it and you will get better results by taking creatine, make sure to drink lots of water

I do not know. I actually ended up tossing it. Everyone has told me it is one of the best tasting wheys out there. Buy it has a strong after taste. Even if I put it in a smoothie. I just couldn't get used it. It does contain a lot of protien but it was expenive just to toss it....

Never tried it, but I assume so, it's got such a light flavor that it wouldn't turn a shake into nasty mush and has a complete protein profile so it wouldn't throw that off if it is a concern.

For me, the flavor changes a lot with the texture/consistency. If you get the powder/liquid ratio right, it tastes like a delicious chocolate shake. If it's too dilute, it's kind of like a gross artificially sweetened juice. If it's too concentrated, it's chunky. I also ONLY like the chocolate flavor, and really don't like the others...

It does, I think comparable to whey protein but slightly less than. tastes terrible by its own though unless you really like the taste of peas. I recommend mixing it with a banana to mask it.

Well, the taste of purified whey protein is not that great, at least not for me. So if your son is finicky about taste, he may not like this. The benefit of this protein is that it is supposed to not have additional additives. The juice helps, but it doesn't remove the taste of the protein. This product may be better for adults or teenagers that can get past the taste part and focus on the health benefits. I hope this helps.

I drink it with water or sometimes work in a mashed banana. It's OK with water but not great. I just down it then wash my mouth out to get rid of the taste it inevitably leaves. Remember - it's protein and just plain isn't going to taste that good. Hope that helps.

Hi! If you are using the cup for protein shakes it will smell. All cups seam to have an oder from protein. Many people in the gym have the same category with there shaker cups.
