Strong Coconut Taste and Weak Chocolate Taste
341237
This is a great healthy snack for the whold family.  Although they don't mention it in big letters this does have a strong coconut taste to it.  If you have a coconut allergy you will want to try a different product.  However, if you don't have an allergy and you like the taste of coconut this is the snack for you.  I personally did not taste the chocolate so that could be something the company should work on but overall this is just what we need to pass the time between meals.

I must say, this works fine for my low carb pancakes. For cocoa and coffee, it's down right awful. I first tried it in 100% pure cocoa with almond milk. I thought the unbearable taste was the brand of cocoa. I then added to my coffee (keto diet), and the same unbearable taste.

Much like a few other reviewers, maybe baking masks the taste. I will buy this sparingly. The review is not against NOW Foods in any way. It's solely a review on the taste of the product.

Does not have the aftertaste that other coconut milks do.

I didn't buy from this seller or online but from Kroger.  The taste of chocolate is there but drinking the coconut milk gave the need for me to clear my throat due to the grittiness of it.  There is no coconut milk taste but chocolate.  The ingredients are simple:  organic coconut milk, organic dried cane syrup, cocoa, natural flavors, calcium phosphate, magnesium phosphate, kosher sea salt, carrageenan, guar gum, stevia extract, monk fruit, vitamin A palmitate, vitamin d2, selenium, zinc oxide, folic acid, and vitamin b12.  If one can get passed the little grittiness of this product, then one will enjoy it.  I have also tried the shelf 32 oz. carton of the chocolate coconut milk, and I got the same result.

This product is a disappointment ..
Coffee flavor is very weak ..
Just chocolate ..
I refuse to five-star evaluations.
 add to the mix the espresso tray, it will be fantastic coffee mocha.

I've had mixed experiences with ZICO's coconut water. In some of the cases I've bought, they taste great, but in other cases, there's an odd aftertaste in them that I just can't pin down. This aftertaste pretty much ruins the taste of the coconut water. Unfortunately, I am not interested in continuing to play an aftertaste lottery with my coconut water cases, so I will be switching to other brands.

I've tried both the chocolate and the coffee and will probably not buy again.  The price at the store has gone down since it first came out, so that's no longer an issue.  Really I like everything about it except the taste.  The chocolate doesn't taste like chocolate at all.  Same with the coffee.  I have to add things (organic cacao powder, almond butter, frozen fruits) to make it drinkable, and still the stevia aftertaste is so strong.  I think they're onto something with this product, but they still have some work to do.

I bought the coconut rum and had a hard time tasting either flavor and did not detect a shred of coconut.  It was pretty moist just not at all flavorful.  I would save my money and look around for a real coconut cake.

My daughter wanted to make cupcakes and wanted chocolate ones. I ordered this and we made them without any frosting, just cupcakes. I found them to be moist but they did not have a strong chocolate taste. I don't like tastes that are overpowering but these felt like they could have had more flavor to them. I am not even a chocolate fan and felt they fell short. However, the cake mix was easy to make and they were moist. I just wish they had more of a chocolate flavor to them, it was really faint.

I was so excited to get this because I really wanted a nice dessert tea. It ended up tasting like soap and the rooibos was weak. Didn't taste of coconut at all. I really regret buying this. Throwing it out the same day it arrived.

For some reason the Goji Cacao had a really weird after taste.  It lingered in my mouth and I did not like it at all.  Sadly I will not be buying this in the future.

This doesn't taste anything like actual coconut water.  The slurry that results from mixing this very fine powder with water results in a drink lacking both in coconut flavor and body.  There is a chemical sweetness that throws things off as well.  Even from-concentrate coconut water hits closer to the real thing than Coco Hydro.  I still have half of a package in my cabinet and don't imagine I'll be finishing it anytime soon.

While I realize that traditional German Chocolate Cake has Pecan-Coconut Frosting, I was expecting (based on other reviews) that this coffee would taste more like chocolate.  I personally do not like the flavor of coconut, so I didn't care for the flavor of this coffee.  But, if you like the taste of chocolate and coconut together, then you will probably enjoy this.

The coffee is good but I did't taste much chocolate or any coconut.  If you're looking for a more chocolatey flavor, try the Chocolate Glazed Donut flavor.
