Tesco Skinny Latte Sachets





This is the last of the three Tesco sachets we've tried. It's on a par with the Macchiato, and it'sdifficult to tell which is the worse. Very dry and plain. Bitter powdered coffee is the main flavour. It leaves a nasty taste of instant coffee bitterness in the mouth.




Try all three side by side puts them in context. The main difference is the sweetness. The sweetest is the Cappuccino (which has over 22% sugar - it doesn't say exactly how much, 21% milk powder, and 13% instant coffee). There's not a lot between the Macchiato and the Skinny. Trying them again and again, I think I'm edging in favour of the Skinny as being the least offensive. It carries more milk powder, and while the Macchiato contains more milk sugar, that's all it carries, while the Skinny uses both sugar and milk sugar. That extra milk and direct sugar, is probably what gives it a bit more body and smoothness. Both have 11% coffee powder.
