Biohaferdrink (organic oat drink) [DE]

Not stocked in many places (found in DM). Rather forgettable, but certainly not the worst.

• taste: honestly can't remember

• aftertaste: nothing too out of the ordinary

• mouth feel: clean?

• stretchability: do-able but not easy

Oat milk from the big French chain supermarket Carrefour.

• taste: very clean and pleasant, slightly sweet

• aftertaste: pretty clean though slight aftertaste of something reminiscent of additives (but not too chemically); at least not too lingering

• mouth feel: very light and clean, no starchy coating; creamy

• stretchability: feels impossible to stretch -- steam creates turbulence than a whirlpool resulting in huge bubbles that quickly pop.

Also not my best pour (recurrent theme). This oat milk from the national drugstore chain (equivalent to Thrifty's or RiteAid but with a line of its own organic food products) is not bad in coffee drinks.

• taste: rather clean without overwhelming starchiness similar to share, but somehow not as clean

• aftertaste: clean, no lingering after taste

• mouth feel: clean, no starchy coating

• stretchability: a bit harder to get the knack of stretching this and quite easy to get big bubbles that tap out into a flat body-less mess (i.e. not very stable)

This might be a runner-up for a good balance of stretchability and minimal ingredient list (which contributes to the cleaner taste compared to "barista" lines of other brands).

• taste: rather clean tasting without overwhelming starchiness similar to share, but somehow not as clean

• aftertaste: slight after taste probably because of the soy milk?

• mouth feel: slight astringency, prob because of the soy milk content

• stretchability: certainly much easier to stretch than dm's non-barista "oat drink"

Although must professional baristas seem to prefer this Oatly, I find it

• taste: starchy and reminds me of the awful soy milks in tetrapaks -- I would not like to drink this straight

• aftertaste: of stabilizers and starch

• mouth feel: coats your mouth

• stretchability: very thick and stretchable with stable bubbles, but still easy to introduce too much air (and then very difficult to tap out)

• taste: a little less starchy than the Barista edition, but still is and still would not like to drink this straight

• aftertaste: of stabilizers and starch

• mouth feel: still a mouth coater

• stretchability: not as thick as the Barista edition, but still very similar qualities

• taste: a little less starchy than the Oatly's but...

• aftertaste: meh

• mouth feel: meh

• stretchability: not as thick as the Oatly's but quite similar stretchability

• taste:

• aftertaste:

• mouth feel:

• stretchability:

• taste: very strong, very odd dominant taste (maybe mineraly) that is like a cacophony that brings out the worst in coffee

• aftertaste: odd

• mouth feel: very starchy

• stretchability: not worth trying

• taste: clean, nutty (surprise surprise) but in a way that complements coffee

• aftertaste: nutty, not lingering

• mouth feel: clean (surprising given all the stabilizers)

• stretchability: I want to say impossible -- big bubbles, no creaminess to build up on
