    It's a pérfect summer album! The songs are so refreshing and mature, at first i did not like the Title Track Alcohol Free but after listening to the whole album something changed in me. Taste of Love it's now my favorite Twice album.

    An excellent summer album with no skip. This is my favorite mini album. It's CHEFS KISS. This ep has a perfect title track and many amazing beautiful bsides. I wish they can do this summer concept more its just so good. Especially is Alcohol Free because is make my summer more comfortable and interesting. Alcohol Free is also my favorite, it was love at first listen(unpopular opinion).

    Taste of love is one of the best albums released by TWICE. It’s a MASTERPIECE that can’t be described by words. Their discography is flawless and they never disappoint us.

    This felt very weak coming from Twice. I found the title track weak both in lyrics and sound, and then the rest of the album just ended up as a let down too.

This being my all-time favorite TWICE album, the tracks that particulary stand out to me are Alcohol-Free, Scandal and SOS. The latter two come to prove themselves as two of TWICE's best self-written b-sides, but it is undeniable the way the retro-summer vibe of the entirety of Taste of Love as a minialbum is very well held by the title track, Alcohol-Free. With a brilliantly composed arrangement and production, Alcohol-Free's instrumental track is a hidden pearl in TWICE's 6-year-old discography, perhaps outdoing Knock Knock in that matter. Overall this is an amazing album that worked well with the members' voices as well as the line distribution worked with what would be best and more comfortable to the singers - knowing your strenghts lead to a better result at the end. This seems like a perfect musical work.… Expand

From their beginnings as a girl group with cutesy concepts and evolving with synthwave pop, electro-disco pop and even dabbling with tropical deephouse, its title-track (Alcohol-Free) that has a bossa nova sound and a more mature concept offers a welcome surprise that will leave you with a relaxing and positive vibe and is an enjoyable break from KPop’s usual fast-paced music. Besides the addictive title-track that you can listen to as 2021’s summer anthem, the B-side tracks showcased their amazing and diverse vocals, as well as noteworthy lyricism (the members had some great contributions in this album's songwriting).

    Old fans will definitely celebrate Twice’s new addition to its discography that shows their constant pursuit of growth and versatility. For new fans, this is a great introduction to one of the best girl groups in South Korea, as their fun and loveable personalities translated well into this album's selection. You’ll definitely fall in love twice over Twice.    … Expand

    I went into this EP and not having a lot of high expectations other than it being a decent pop EP, and it was. On the opening track, "Alcohol-Free," we get this blend of bossa nova guitar-playing and electronic beats, which admittedly I found to be intriguing. But overall, that song wasn't particularly noteworthy compared to all of the other tracks.

On the opening track, "Alcohol-Free," we get this blend of bossa nova guitar-playing and electronic beats, which admittedly I found to be intriguing. But overall, that song wasn't particularly noteworthy compared to all of the other tracks. My favorite song on the EP, "Scandal," has a groovy bassline, catchy beats, and lyrics that are almost poetic in a way. For instance, in the hook, it goes: "Baby, we're scandal, way too hot to handle, you can't keep your eyes off, my love is like a candle." I think that using candles as a metaphor for short-lived relationships is very underutilized, in my opinion. My least favorite track, "Baby Blue Love," sounds like a bizarre déjà vu of a bunch of 90s dance-pop songs that I feel like everyone has heard before; so, it's kind of like "why are we here again?" Overall, I found this EP to be pretty enjoyable for its 17-minute run-time.

    Apart from the bossa-nova, Latin inspired title track, the whole album in itself boasts tracks with lyrics written by the members themselves.

Taste of Love brings something fresh yet mature to the table full of samey sound summer albums in kpop. The album shows consistency throughout the album which is very captivating. Bossa Nova genre is not something people assoicate Twice with, to be fact, BUT Twice truly embraces the sound with their flirty and sweet vocals and gives us the best summer song of 2020 'Alcohol Free'. The members participated in lyrics again and we're not bit surprised that they did so well. As a long time fan of Twice, I'm so proud of them. I love all the tracks from the album but my personal faves are S.O.S and Baby Blue Love.
    Taste of Love deserves more love because it's such a great album.
    Can't wait for greater albums written by the members again!    … Expand

    Their best album so far. Taste of Love is a cohesive, a very well produced album. The b-sides were all written by members and they did a very good job! Alcohol Free is a great title that represents the album and not to mention it's pretty different for Twice title tracks too. Definitely an ear worm and a great intro to the album. Album has a very retro feeling which I really love    10/10

Alcohol Free is a great title that represents the album and not to mention it's pretty different for Twice title tracks too. Definitely an ear worm and a great intro to the album. Album has a very retro feeling which I really love and let's be honest Twice does retro so well. I also loved their previous retro works such as I CAN'T STOP ME, UP NO MORE and SAY SOMETHING. I totally would like to see more retro from them.
    The members vocals were on point and harmonies were amazing. The only downside is album's too short. I want to listen to this great piece of art work more but that's understandable in a streaming era.
    Best summer album this year. Deserves more recognition and appreciation! Thank you Twice!    … Expand

    No impact.. it seems like it was rushed.. hence, this is one of the worst albums of Twice.. the previous album last year was better

    The best KPOP album of all times, all the b tracks written by the members JIHYO SANA NAYEON DAHYUN, listen to this album is a pleasure, it’s a summer album but with mature vibes, it’s so good that deserves “album of the year” in both USA and Korea.

Este álbum es tan bueno, nunca me había tomado el tiempo de escuchar su música a pesar de haber oído sobre ellas, y realmente me arrepiento sin duda alguna First Time , Baby Blue Love y Scandall merecen un Music Video! Increíble trabajo, se merecen mucho esa puntuación… Expand

    With a soothing summer title track followed by exploding flavors of 5 self-written B-sides and a bitter sweet English version of a break up song, Twice has truly shown the multiple tastes of love. Unless you listen, you won't know what you are missing. I'm still drunk the album even though I don't drink.

    No hace falta decir que TWICE es uno de los mejores grupos actuales que hay, se reinventan en cada EP o ÁLBUM y siempre demuestran su versatilidad en todas sua canciones. Este EP no fue la excepción ya que volvieron con un alcohol-free un tittle track super veraniego (en corea es verano) y los b-sides escritos por las miembros es un excelente y exitoso EP demostrando que TWICE es el estándar.

    Perfect, mixing rhythms and sounds that remind you of summer, it's balanced and has the members' participation in all the songs on the album, very good.

    Taste of Love is a good album, but it’s too “good” and not enough “wow” for its own good. TWICE can do better.

    ‘Taste Of Love’ is one of TWICE’s more powerful releases yet – despite a number of notable misfires – and showcases the group’s versatility in terms of vocals and concept execution.

    Taste of Love is one of TWICE’s most cohesive and dazzling albums thus far. It’s fun, mature and makes a great contribution to our current pop-sphere with its retro-sonic aesthetics and escapist feel.
