Caffeine Mints by Rally, 60milligram Caffeine, Instant Energy, Fresh Breath C...

You do definitely get a bit of that bitter pure caffeine taste if you're familiar, but the mint flavor helps a lot to counteract it and for me personally I kind of love it. I usually get these like once a year and just use them for a week before I get into work. In the long term I don't recommend them if you actually enjoy caffeinated beverages, I find myself still wanting to stick to my routine of drinking coffee or an energy drink at work so it kind of spoils that unless I want WAY too much energy.

Bitter AF. A But they will do the job.

Awful taste. Taste like pure caffeine with a touch of wintergreen flavor. It's been 30 minutes and I still have that awful taste in my mouth.

I'm torn on these because they work but I hate the taste. I took one about 40 minutes before starting work and in that time I was fully awake and alert. That energy carried for a few hours and absolutely no jitters. What I have a hard time with is the flavor; They taste awful. The first one I had I chewed and that was a big mistake so don't chew these at all. The second one I just let melt and it was better but there's a strong bitter flavor with a very slight minty-ness behind it. I'll continue to take them but I don't think I can palette another order.

loved them! Brought a little Joy every morning out on the fireline When you couldn’t get real coffee.

My hubby works 12 hour shifts. He started drinking a lot of Mt Dew which concerned me because of the sugar intake. Now he has one can a day and when if needs further pick up these mints work great for him.

I found it interesting that the packaging for this product is so small and that there is no room to list the ingredients. Only by going to the seller's website can you find a list of ingredients. These mints actually contain 60mg of glycine per tablet. Glycine is an amino acid that induces sleepiness. What's interesting about glycine is that it can initially be calming. However, it can then convert to glutamate because glycine enhances NMDA receptors. Glutamate is the primary excitatory neurotransmitter in the human brain and it can raise anxiety in people who are naturally high in glutamate. And that's precisely what happened to me. After consuming just two of these mints, my anxiety went through the roof about an hour later and remained elevated for several hours. Glycine is also an essential metabolite for cancer cells. Just something to be aware of and not really something that should consumed daily. These mints also contain quite a bit of sucralose in an attempt to mask the straight caffeine anhydrous that you taste. All the reviews complaining about the taste are due to biting straight into caffeine anhydrous, which is not pleasant. Due to the questionable ingredients and poor taste, I would stay away from this product.

Has a wierd chemical taste that’s slight but fast acting and good energy and the packaging is good looking 8/10
