    I loved this album so much that I hear all songs every single day. As a Brazilian, I've been feeling so happy, because they used the genre Bossa Nova in their title track, Alcohol Free. Love you, Twice.

    This album has shown how versatile they are and how talented they are when it comes to writing lyrics. Every song is a bop and even the title track’s genre is something you cannot typically hear from a kpop group yet they nailed it. Taste of Love is definitely a no-skip album.

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

    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.

    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

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

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

    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.
