Thought I'd share my experience with NBS' new BCAA product.
Price: 5/5 A competitive price compared to the other 2:1:1 BCAA products out there.
Mixability: 4/5 BCAA's are notorious for their mixabilty. So my rating is based on my experience - the NBS product does need a fair bit of mixing to properly dissolve. But when it does, there aren't any floaties. It mixes into a cloudly white mixture.
Smell: 2/5 On opening the satchel, I was presented with somewhat of a chemical smell.
Taste: 1/5 Unfortunately, this is where the product falls down for me. I've come to expect a high standard from NBS in terms of taste. Their WPI is one of the better tasting local proteins on the market and I've been using them for a number of months now. Going by that standard, I was disappointed with the BCAA flavor. It's advertised as electric strawberry but it's a very chemically, cough syrup tasting concoction. Not hint of strawberry at all.
The NBS service and prices are great, so hopefully they can dial in the flavoring of the BCAA in the future.
