Taste		i can surely say...this is the best protein available in the market,though the pricing is high....but you know quality matters.It mixes easily ,but the taste is not so good as compared to dymatize elite whey protein(berry blast).I am using double rich chocolate flavor.You get 24 grams protein, 5.5 g of bcaa's / and over 4 grams of glutamine and its precursors per serving.And dont worry about calories, it have only 130 calories per scoop.
