“Zu süß, zu künstlich. Schmeckt nach sehr viel zugesetztem Zucker, kennt man von A.H. Riise ja aber. Heute erneut im geschenkten Sample Set gehabt. Extrem süß, unangenehm künstlich. Habe die Punktzahl sogar nochmal reduzieren müssen (-5). Zum Glück hat er anderen geschmeckt, sodass ich ihn nicht wegschütten muss.”
