Great Product, Nice Alternative To Tins,
Short version: These are great! What are you waiting for?<br /><br />I am so happy Viter Energy created this as an alternative to the metal tins they sell. I love the tins but I also wanted some caffeine mints that I could easily carry around with me in my pocket or backpack, plus the tins can be a little loud when you're down to a few mints and it jingles, these are better for the office or a bag or purse so they don't make any noise. Also I tend to lose things easily so I have misplaced a few tins but with these if I lose a packet that's only 3 mints not a big deal. Plus if I ever don't want 3 mints at once I can always put the extra into one of my remaining tins, which now permanently stay in my cars and a few spots in the house. Having 3 mints in each packet also makes for a lot less packaging waste which is always good. I also like that they are 40mg. A lot of caffeine mints start at 60+ mg but sometimes I don't need that much, or if I do I would rather space them out which works great with the 40mg. I have read some reviews of the tins where people hate the taste but I think it's fine. You shouldn't expect it to taste just like a non-caffeinated mint but I have tried other brands that were so much worse. Maybe it's something about the Wintergreen flavor that really disguises the bitterness of the caffeine. This is a perfect offering in between the tins and the bulk bag. As far as effectiveness, these are definitely the same mints you get in the tins and all I can say is they work. In fact the few times I took them late in the day I stayed up way too late at night, so consider that a warning if you're not a regular coffee drinker. The box also tells you about the 2 founders and how the company came to be, how cool is that?! I can't really think of any complaints. One of the few products out there that does/is exactly what is claimed.
