For the cappuccino, those who preferred the Starbucks product found the McDonald's product bitter or burnt tasting. But for the majority who liked the McDonald's product, they preferred its color and depth of flavor.
While the McDonald's mocha won 6-to-1, some tasters thought both brands were weak tasting. Most thought the Starbucks product tasted weak or watered down.
While the McCafe products were preferred, Starbucks regulars said the atmosphere there would keep them going back to the fast casual chain for the coffeehouse experience.
