(More customer reviews)Love this stuff, tastes delicious and actually healthy for you unlike most whey powders.Only problem I have is that in the "other ingredients" there is a bit of xylitol and stevia - but it such a small amount I think I won't have any reactions to them.
A Votre Sante.

Nectar Whey Protein Isolate Review
Wednesday, January 5, 2011

Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I've been using Syntrax Nectar for sometime and have yet to find a protein drink I like as much. Unlike the chocolate/vanilla/etc. milk-based protein shakes, it's designed to dissolve easily in water and comes in a variety of mostly fruit-type flavors. Overall I've had good luck with the various flavors, they are easy to mix, generally have little aftertaste and not as obvious "protein" taste as most whey drinks. However, my experiences with different flavors is not equal and some I would recommend over others. So here's a rundown of flavors I have tried and my ratings of them. Please keep in mind that there are often variations in lots, I've definitely sometimes gotten a batch that has particular issues dissolving and other times, the same flavor does much better. So this is just my own personal experience.
1. Apple Ecstasy - 4 stars - This is the first flavor I tried and I like the taste a lot, very "Jolly Rancher" apple flavor. For some reason though I seem to have more problem with this flavor versus others properly dissolving, it tends to leave behind a bit of grit that I don't care for.
2. Roadside Lemonade - 5 stars - This is my favorite flavor and the one I generally buy. It has great lemon flavor with little aftertaste. I often use a little less than a full scoop which helps it dissolve completely and dilutes out the strong lemon taste a little. I do get some clumps sometimes, but I find it less offensive than the grit I get with the Apple Ecstasy.
3. Strawberry Kiwi - 3 stars - This was just so-so for me but a lot of people would probably like it. I am a big fan of strawberries but the taste didn't work well for me as a drink. It's not a bad as some flavors, but not in my favorites.
4. Caribbean Cooler - 1 star - My least favorite that I've tried. This is a kind of "pina colada" flavor and I found it quite awful. It is a strong taste of coconut and little of the pineapple, if it was the other way around it probably would be much better. Again, everyone's tastes are different, and I know some people like it, but this just didn't work at all for me.
5. Fuzzy Navel - 5 stars - I like this orange flavor a lot and it's my favorite next to Roadside Lemonade. It's not quite like orange juice but close enough to taste like something you are used to drinking.
6. Natural Peach - 2 stars - Peach is one of my favorite flavors so I was eager to try this one, but definitely did not like it much. The "Naturals" line does not have Sucralose and claims to have only natural flavors and sweetners, but strangely enough, it has a more artifical and strange aftertaste for me than the regular flavors. I'm guessing this is due to the protein taste being less "hidden" than in the other types, but for whatever reason, it definitely was not something I would care to drink again. If you have issues with Sucralose though, it may be worth trying.
7. Crystal Sky - 4 stars - This one tastes like a berry-flavored Kool-Aid or Gatorade and has the same bright blue color. If you like Gatorade, you will probably like this flavor as well. I liked the flavor as it is so close to the taste of a normal type of drink although the couple times I've had it I had a little more problem with clumping. I've found clumping to vary with batches and if you use a protein mixing device instead of just vigorous stirring with a spoon like I usually do, it probably won't be an issue.
8. Natural Fruit Punch - 2 stars - Like the Natural Peach, this has a weird aftertaste I really disliked, I just can't imagine someone preferring this flavor over others. It seems that the "Natural" line of Nectar all have this strange aftertaste that is very unpleasant due to the lack of Sucralose, so consider that when choosing the flavor(s) to try.
9. Lemon Iced Tea - 2-1/2 stars - If you like iced tea, you may like this flavor, but it wasn't for me. It does have a taste very similar to iced tea (reminded me of Lipton) and seems to dissolve okay but it was a bit strong for me. A bigger issue was the color of it is kind of off-putting. It was a lot darker than the normal watered-down brown color of iced tea, and looked more like mud. I just found it hard to look at that yucky brown color and want to drink it down.
10. - Cappuccino - 2 stars - This is from their new "Lattes" line and is basically coffee flavored. It dissolved nicely and you can drink either either cold or warm, in water or milk. I tried it just in water with some ice and it does taste reasonably like iced coffee, with perhaps a touch of spice. However, it has a rather strong artificial sweeter aftertaste, stronger than any Nectar flavor I've had, that doesn't go away for sometime after consuming it. Clearly, people that don't like coffee won't like this flavor, but if you are a dedicated coffee drinker like me, you may also not care for something that tastes "sort of" like coffee but not the real thing. I'll have to try this in milk warmed up though and see if the aftertaste is lessened with a different preparation.
