Now is a fantastic organization that started locally to me (Chicagoland area). I usually get Optimum Nutrition (ON) but started reading ingredients of ON vs Now and some other major brands and decided to give Now Whey Isolate a shot. I have used there pea protein and rice protein but never whey. They sell Now supplements at stores locally to me called Fruitful Yield which are just fantastic.
The Whey Isolate is not as sweet as ON but I don’t need super sweet. If I want chocolate milk I’ll make chocolate milk. This protein mixes very well with a spoon in a glass or water. About the same as ON. Both companies are local to me so they have been around for years but ON does private labeling for local gyms so it’s all over the place. Now appears to be a higher quality product and their supplements are great quality too. I have taken Now Men’s Sport Multi Vitamins for years. This prices of this high level protein is more affordable than other top reviewed Whey Isolate protein on the market and less added fillers. Now Whey Isolate is my new go to. The taste is just fine. I chug it right down anyway. I don’t want ti call it bland, it’s simply just not as sweet as ON. I’m not looking to sip and savor my post workout protein. As stated it mixes in water easily and that’s a high priority aside from it being quality and not filled with a bunch of other crap. You get more for your money. Give it a try.

WPIらしく味は薄め。薄味と言えど、最近のプロテインの味が昔と比べ美味しくなっているだけで、昔のプロテインのチョコ味はこんな感じだったなという味である。

飲んだ後に鼻から抜ける匂いがシャボン液のような石鹸水のような・・・

tastes like they forgot to put any of the sweetener and half the chocolate powder in with the batch i received – taste was truly awful and i’ve had a lot of bad tasting protein powder over decades, was basically unflavored. definitely not creamy chocolate. tried to make myself choke this down a couple times but it’s unacceptable as just a shake; hopefully can use for baking.

Not into protein powders but this was super tasty. loved the taste of it. I and my husband usually mix it with the smoothie. Tastes good.

This (5lb version) is probably the best protein powder I’ve come across in terms of taste, consistency, and nutrition profile. One of the main things most people overlook is cholesterol content for protein powder. This is typically pretty high on most other products. However, this NOW Whey Protein Isolate mix has very low cholesterol compared to most brands yet it delivers a pretty high protein amount.
The only thing I would change about this is the scooper that comes with it is HUGE! I cannot use it unless I’m dumping powder into a blender. For normal glasses or blender bottles it’s just too big. I get the idea that all you need is ONE scoop with that big scooper but it makes a mess.
Update (10/29/15):
Do not, I repeat DO NOT, get the 6lb “version” of this product. Stick to the 5lb version. I recently saw a 6lb option which was actually cheaper than the 5lb option so it was a no brainer to order it. After I got the 6lb version in the mail I opened it without thinking twice after a work out and noticed right away something was off–there were little crystal like pieces in there that look almost like kosher salt. I thought maybe they slightly changed their formula up, no biggie. Then after mixing it up and drinking it I realized that this was a TOTALLY different product than then 5lb version. I was disgusted by the taste. Confused, I looked at the nutrition profile: the first thing that jumped out at me was the HIGH cholesterol content (20% daily value vs 2% in the 5lb version)!! Not only that, it had more calories, more fat, and LESS protein. What the heck is going on here NOW foods? How can you sell two different formulations with the same name and virtually the same container? Also Amazon, you cannot sell the 6lb (and the 2lb) version under the same product listing–Its a different product!
I still give the 5lb version of this product 5 stars…the 6lb version I give 0 stars.

All the people who are complaining about the flavor are people who are used to protein powders with flavor additives. This uses stevia and xylitol, both natural sweeteners. Of course it’s not going to taste like a lot of mainstream brands out there…
This protein does it’s designed job perfectly. It’s not meant to satisfy your sweet tooth, it’s meant as a protein supplement without added junk!
The chocolate flavor profile is very light and it’s just a hint. Perfect if you ask me.
It mixes almost instantly upon a few shakes, the consistency is smooth and watery; absent of chunks. Goes down smooth.
If you desire a bit more flavor punch and a thicker consistency, add milk and peanut butter powder. Problem solved.
Recommended for anybody who cares about their health.

Ive been taking dymatize for the past 3 years and they have probably the best tasting protein on the market. I decided to switch to this for the value 50$. Mixes good and you can tell it is high quality protein but the flavor is just bland, no real chocolate taste at all. Luckily i dont care about taste to much. No upset stomach after it either which is a sign of a good protein. Probably would buy again.

Good stuff but tastes super bland.

Acknowledging that taste is subjective, I agree with those that mentioned this flavor has an aftertaste. Of the dozen brands I have tried, the taste of this ranks in the bottom half. The addition of xanthan gum does give it a thicker consistency than to which I am accustomed; personally, I would prefer thickeners be left out. Sure there are better tasting whey proteins without added thickeners out there, but they are also more expensive. Overall, this product is a solid value, especially for a whey isolate, but I am unsure I would purchase again due to the taste and thicker consistency. On a side note, the unflavored version of this brand is excellent, which I have used for years.
