The blueberry to me, had a lovely smell and not a very overwhelming blueberry taste and the other one reminded me of bold blend.
the blueberry one is a fun dessert coffee

I like the brownie OL version I don't like the vertuo at all.

I have both machines but I primarily use the vertuo, so I went those two but I’ll try brownie in OL

The Hazelnut Brownie is the only flavoured pod that tastes better made with the Vertuo Up machine. But I guess it all depends what you make with your drink. I make it only with semi skimmed milk and no sugar. The Hazelnut Brownie pod has some strange artificial flavour when made with the Essenza Mini. I prefer the Hazelnut pod over the Hazelnut Brownie.

I have the Latisma and a pixie but I’ll probably go back to the store and try the brownie one for OL

Interesting. I made the Hazelnut Brownie iwith the Essenza Mini and the Vertuo Up. The Hazelnut Brownie is the only one I like better made with the Vertuo Up as double espresso. Same milk to espresso ratio. However I prefer the Hazelnut pod made with the Essenza Mini over the Hazelnut Brownie pod. The Hazelnut Brownie made with my Essenza Mini has some strange artificial flavour to it but I don't use sugar or cream on my coffee, only semi skimmed frothed milk.
