Vita Divine Coffee

Rating: 5/23 N: Sweet, light caramel, artificial sweetener, rubber, maybe something resembling coffee of chocolate, some sort of gross citrus fruit. Light and a bit sweet with a lot of chemicals. Not a good nose. P: Super viscous and syrupy with a big sweetness that strays into artificial sweetener, confectioner's sugar, and maple syrup. There's some chocolate here and maybe a faint hint of coffee? This is way too sweet, doesn't taste like coffee, doesn't have much richness, tastes a bit artificial, and has a mouth-coating confectioner's sugar quality to it. It's just plain bad. F: A roasted quality only comes out on the finish. There's lots of confectioner's sugar chalkiness and artificial sweetener, but sweetness diminishes. It's ever so slightly redemptive. The Veil Double Espresso is actually better. This isn't a total disaster and I actually might prefer it to the Veil Caramel, but aside from being sweet and viscous, there isn't much going for this. I'm thinking 4 to 7 and I'm torn. I'm considering a 6, but the chalky richness is rough and it's light with lots of chemicals, so I'm going with 5.
