Has a smooth and dense feel that unfortunately carries a fruity sweetness, though not as egregiously as some others. It's pleasant in small doses, but even by the end of the 180mL, I was yearning for a truer chocolate flavor.
Milli Kakaos Tej
Odd combination of creamy, grainy, undersweet, and under chocolaty. This won't rock anyone’s world, but nothing about it is particularly nasty.
Cserpes Sajtmuhely Kakao Tej
Thin and chocolaty with a cocoa flavor that approaches sour and earthy. Would be lots better with a creamy backing-- as is, it’s a hint too watery; the liquid component washes away quickly, causing the cocoa particulates to gather on the tongue as though you were panning for gold in a Sierra Nevada creek.
Milfina Schokolade Milkshake
Flavor is slightly better than some of the other cupped milkshakes I've had in recent times, but the goopy thickness is difficult for me to get past. There are way more indulgent tasting products that don't carry nearly the caloric price tag that this does.
Milfina Kakaos Tej
Identifiable as chocolate milk but approaching the cusp of bland irrelevance. Same product (as far as I could tell in side-by-side tastings) as Spar ESL Kakaos Tej.
Tolle Kakaos Tej
Nearly identical to Spar ESL Kakaos Tej and Milfina Kakaos Tej, but this manages to be a touch less sweet and therefore registers as slightly more bland. Shouldn't offend anyone, but why not pursue something that will present more challenge to your tastebuds?

Naszalytej Fittej Kakao (bag)
A pleasant sour note ties everything together and is a good foil to the sweetness, keeping it in check. It feels milky, ends clean, and is unique enough to hold its own in a taste test.
Naszalytej Fittej Kakao
Compositionally the same as Auchan Kakaos Ital, but seems to be missing a bit of the creamy taste. Everything else is present, and the drink is plenty competent.
Felegyhazi Tej Kakao
Has a bit of a sugary/sticky feel to it and delivers a candied chocolate flavor that feels immature and overly sweet. Heavier does of cream wouldn’t hurt, but the underlying cocoa flavor isn’t one that is worth trying to enhance through embellishment of the supporting cast.
Auchan Kakaos Ital (bag)
Sweet and approaching earthy, but pulls up in time to avoid ground contact. It’s well-balanced and unoffensive in every respect.
Parmalat Laktozmentes Kakaos Tej
I’ve never actually wrung out damp tree bark and lapped the drippings, but this would be the flavor that I reckon would result. Water-thin, highly unsweet, 80% earthy, 15% wheaty, and the last 5% is hard to put a finger on, but for now let’s file it under ‘lichens.’
Galla Tejital 0% Cukor Kakaos
Imagine this- you snorted a full packet of Sweet ’n Low, then someone blasted you in the face, causing your nose to trickle artificially-sweetened blood both in through your lips and down the back of your throat. This experience (in bottled form) is available at Auchan for a mere 219 Hungarian Forint.
Mars (Hungary)
Good combination of malt and caramel, just lacks the punch of its more-indulgent counterpart. That said, I’d be happy to pack away a handful of these for a hike or long bus ride. Plenty of uniquely ‘Mars-y’ flavor.
Auchan Kakaos Ital
Creamy and almost buttery— a welcome characteristic that appears in chocolate milk from time to time. It’s a taste that I associate with the Parmalat I had in Lisbon, and here it is again. All flavors are in good proportion, it’s solidly above average.
Mizo Kakaos Ital
Very ‘milky’ flavor that is a touch ‘plasticky’ as well— perhaps due to the packaging— as it’s nearly identical in composition to the Mizo Kakao Low Fat version, but tastes very different. It’s decently thin and smooth, but in order to find the cocoa flavor, you have to get beyond the dominant ‘other’ flavor.
Mizo Kakao (Low Fat)
Solidly drinkable and competent, with a slight skew towards sweetness. Everything feels as it should, and one could put this in his/her shopping cart without fear of ridicule.
Mizo Kakao Light Laktozmentes
Palate-destroyingly sweet, and if you can persevere through the onslaught, you will find that your efforts were in vain; there’s nothing else behind it. The flavor isn’t ‘bad’ per se, it’s just rather pointless with something this sweet (artificial or not). I think people are more willing to accept a less-sweet ‘Light’ product— it should’t be amped up with artificial sweeteners to make someone feel that they’re having something indulgent.
Oke! Kakaos Tej
Strong cocoa flavor, good consistency, and enough sweetness to represent proudly the claim of chocolate milk. It’s lacking a bit on the cream and salt sides, which would elevate the experience significantly. As it stands though, it’s a decent product with plenty of potential.
Mizo Kakao Laktozmentes
Phony texture with lots of particulates, and a caramel-like sweetness and flavor that will make you double-check the ingredients.
