Caffeine Mints, 60milligram Caffeine, Instant Energy, Fresh Breath Caffeinated Mints, 0 Sugar, Natural Wintergreen Flavor (12 Packs, 120 Mints)

This is a perfect little incremental bit of caffeine. I have energy shots sure but getting over caffeinated is pretty easy. It's effect is pretty instant from what I felt. I don't feel any big down after or anything. Definitely will get more. A+ for creating someone so good and useful. The taste isn't perfect but I'm not gonna hark on that. It's usefulness definitely outweighs that.

Got these to help with the caffeine habit as a comp sci student, cut down on sugary energy drinks.Things taste great, did exactly what I needed and I really like em. They had this weird battery-acid like flavor at the end, but it was still pretty good anyway.

I have to take him like a pill. If you suck on him for a few seconds, the mint taste will disappear and a horrible taste will replace it. But the caffeine boost is good.

Do you know what pure saccharine tastes like? That's what these mints taste like...one of those tiny little saccharine tablets (some of you are old enough to remember when those were the only sugar substitute around). Anyway...bitter and a lot like alum. I think these are supposed to taste like wintergreen and there's no mint to be had.The green ones (peppermint) are good.I saw a review stating that the cinnamon ones are nasty, too, so I'm not even going to try those.

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.

This is real caffeine in a pill format. Easy to use without having to drink a cup of coffee. I use it whenever I feel tired or worn out and presto-I am awake and alert.

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.

I bought wintergreen. It wasn’t awful but I doubt there has ever been a flavor created that can mask the bitterness of pharmaceutical grade caffeine - wintergreen included. They worked ok though.
