Nescafe Cafe Menu / Gold Double Choca Mocha

Now called Gold, and with a few tweaks, but essentially the same product. I like it. It's a warm milky drink with some mild chocolate and coffee flavours. Mocha is a good name as it's not a coffee, not even a coffee substitute.

Mocha is a milky coffee with chocolate. The coffee is usually a latte (an espresso with more milk than a cappuccino), though it really could be anything, as here, where its an instant coffee. The "double choca" part suggests there is more chocolate than average, though I wouldn't know as a mocha is not one of my usual drinks.

It tastes quite artificial and slightly unpleasant. Think cheap, very cheap, cooking chocolate, and that's the main flavour - with some faint instant coffee powder thrown in. Not good.
