'Georgia THE Latte Shine Muscat' tasting review, does the scent of Shine Muscat match the rich and sweet latte?

The first flavored latte `` Georgia THE Latte Shine Muscat '' from Coca-Cola's coffee brand ``Georgia'', which was rebranded in March 2023, was released on September 18, 2023. It is said that the sweet and refreshing scent of Shine Muscat extract from Nagano Prefecture matches latte made with domestic milk, so I was really curious to see if the flavor of Shine Muscat would match with latte, so I actually drank it and found out. I tried it.

The third new “Georgia” product will be released in September 2023! A campaign reaching approximately 1 million people in total will start on Monday, September 4th. ``Georgia THE Black'' and ``Georgia THE Latte'', which have a smooth richness and aroma that can be enjoyed hot. ``Georgia THE Black'' and ``Georgia THE Latte'' have no added sugar, but are even creamier and deeper with a ``luxury'' flavor. “Georgia THE Zero,” where you can enjoy the latte feeling, will be released on September 4th (Monday) First flavored latte “Georgia THE Latte Shine Muscat” will be released on September 18th (Monday) | Press Center | Coca-Cola Japan Co., Ltd.

It says it contains Shine Muscat extract, but the label says 'no fruit juice'.

When I opened the lid, the scent of muscat wafted out.

I poured the contents into a transparent cup.

The color is beige, the same as a typical latte drink.

When you bring it close to your face, the latte scent has a sweet and sour scent typical of Shine Muscat. However, when I actually drank it, I got the impression that it was a rich and sweet latte with the flavor of milk, without the sweet and sour taste of Shine Muscat. Although the taste was quite sweet, there was a slight scent of refreshing Shine Muscat, and the aftertaste felt refreshing. When I asked an editorial staff member to drink the product while hiding the fact that it contained Shine Muscat extract, she said, ``It has a unique, refreshing scent like hazelnuts, but it might not match the rich, sweet latte flavor subtly.'' I got some impressions.

Georgia THE Latte Shine Muscat will be available nationwide from September 18, 2023. Manufacturer's suggested retail price is 159 yen excluding tax.
