Many times better than the Meiji I had in Thailand, this has a great balance of flavors— there’s plenty of salt to balance out the sweetness and amplify the cream. The texture feels milky and natural, super easy to drink, and 450mL goes surprisingly quickly when it’s executed well.

Salt and cream are very strong and overpower the sweetness and whatever cocoa flavor there is. Call me crazy, but it stands out from the over-sweetened and under-salted field of chocolate milk, and doesn’t have the dreaded ‘fortified’ mineral-y taste that you might expect.

Big chunks of gelatinous material suspended throughout this drink, which I think is milk-based (will have to wait for the translation). The chocolate flavor is there, and it’s plenty sweet, but it’s just weird having jelly-like chunks throughout.

As it turns out, it’s soy milk, but pretty flavorful. Nice deep chocolate flavor, lots of graininess to achieve it, but a nicely strong and sweet chocolate soy milk.

Sweetness dominates the experience, and the malt flavor certainly stands out above the chocolate. Nicely thin and very smooth, it was enjoyable but far from transcendent.

The nasty gray color is reminiscent of a highly polluted river, and the taste might be worse. I would describe it as sweet and ferrous. Please avoid.

Definitely less sweet than the regular version, but the same taste is prevalent. Watery texture doesn’t add to the experience, it only further highlights the lack of flavor.

Stronger supporting cast than its UHT counterpart, the added creaminess delivers the malt taste more effectively.

A tad much on the watery side for the malt flavor to seem realistic. It comes on a bit too strong and doesn’t have enough cream or saltiness to carry it through.

Nice creamy flavor in a thin and smooth texture. It slightly coats the back of your throat and you will wish that it hung on for longer.

Well balanced package of flavors, very smooth and creamy with adequate salt to tie it all together. I kept coming back to this brand my entire time in Thailand; I was always happy to see it on the shelf, and if the store had it, I bought it.

Much less soylike than the bottled ‘Double Choco’— but this version has a slight sweetness as its only discernible flavor. No chocolate to be found.

Strong creamy flavor that pairs well with the silky smoothness and thin viscosity. Adequately sweet, not super chocolaty, but also absent is the nutty flavor of the fresh Foremost Chocolate version.

A nutty chocolate flavor which is not overpowering. Quite sweet, thin, and smooth— goes down easily but with an almost hazlelnutty bent.
