ARMORICA Fermented Cod Liver Oil | Cold-Processed & Naturally Enriched | Omega-3, Antioxidants, and Vitamins A & D | Made in The UK (Unflavoured) (120 Capsules)

High quality. Great for skin and eyes.

I'm very happy with Armorica cod liver oil. I've bought all forms - the capsules, the lemon-flavoured oil, and the mint-flavoured oil that's fortified with natto. I rate all of it.I've been buying fermented cod liver oil for years. Fermentation was the traditional way of making fish oil, so I'll take my chances - and benefits - with this form, rather than whatever industrial-scale process is used to make most fish oil nowadays.I previously bought Green Pastures Fermented Cod Liver Oil - mostly the Blue Ice Royal version that's a cod liver oil and butter oil mix. It's perfectly good, but Armorica is better:* Armorica is less expensive (comparing say 120 capsules), so better value.* Armorica is made in the UK, whilst Green Pastures is imported from the US. I'm happier buying local.* Armorica tastes better. My kids cheerfully down teaspoons of the lemon-flavoured oil, and my older kid managed the mint-flavoured fortified oil, which has a stronger taste. Neither oil tastes particularly fishy at all. I never dared try Green Pastures oil on the kids, as it tasted too fishy.For a balanced review, the two downsides of Armorica are:* Armorica is expensive compared with normal shop-bought cod liver oil. However, to me they are two different beasts - I'm buying Armorica because I want cod liver oil made by a classic fermentation process. I'm not buying cod liver oil made any old way at industrial scale, just cos it's cheap.* The mint-flavoured oil fortified with natto is harder to take than the normal lemon-flavoured oil: the mint taste is stronger, and the oil thicker. However, I'm willing to take the hit for the natto benefits.Recommended.

These capsules were smaller than anticipated. They were easy to swallow with water and I didn’t find the odour or flavour particularly strong. My skin seems clearer in the few weeks that I’ve been taking them.

I've been a long time user of EVCLO, and have tried a variety of well known products.I like this - the website is informative and makes a trustworthy impression. I've emailed them in the past and they makers are very responsive.I can't say much about the flavours - I've never been sensitive to CLO taste, some people can't hack it. I'll happily decant it on a teaspoon and take it straight, so I can't speak to the sensitive folks. In my view the flavouring here masks the fish almost completely.That also means it's hard to gauge its native smell/taste as indicator of the product's quality, but I'll trust the makers (UK based). Unfortunately, the unflavoured is currently not available as an oil, only as capsules at a much higher unit price.

You can tell the quality of this oil when you first put it on a spoon. It looks like no other cod liver oil I've ever tasted. Very potent stuff, and it is working well for me. If you're used to other cod liver oils then the taste will be nothing unusual, although the added natural lemon flavour is a good touch. Store in the fridge.

A friend suggested I use a more natural cod liver oil than the ones I was getting from Boots. Looking at these, the oil looks a lot richer than other cod liver oils, which makes sense because the oil isn't heavily processed. The seaweed/ gelatine capsules are really easy to swallow, which is a real plus, because I often struggle with taking any pill or capsule. Since taking them I'd say my skin is looking a lot more clear, but I know the real benefit is for my immune system. Overall, really happy with this.

I have tried so many cod liver oil but I have to admit that it is one of the finest that I have used so far. So very satisfied with the quality of the oil. I did not find it very strong while having it and exactly what I wanted. I would say the amount I paid for the oil is good as compare to the price being paid. Overall a perfect cod liver oil with perfect flavour.

The product used to be a 5 starIt contained bovine collagen capsules before,However the product was changed (it says so on the armorica website)veg capsules are used now instead of alginate capsules and the new ingredients are starch, glycerol and carrageenan...Personally I will be switching to the pure cod liver oil as I prefer not to consume starch(probably corn starch) and glycerol which is extracted from seed oils...
