Four Sigmatic Organic Instant Adaptogen Coffee Medium Roast Instant Coffee with Ashwagandha, Chaga, Eleuthero & Tulsi Immune Support & Stress Relief Pack of 10

I buy this for a treat for myself from time to time. Is too expensive for regular buying or a subscription, and I can only find a larger packet of fresh filter coffee which isn't the same as this. Shame because it tastes great and has a great effect, not as boisterous as regular instant coffee. Shame it's too expensive, otherwise I'd drink this coffee all the time. However, working out at about £1 a cup of coffee is too much, when I buy a pack it lasts me a while as I don't like to use all my sachets too quickly.

I got taken in by network marketing company who do a similar coffee and claim it to be the best - well it turned out I couldn't sell my soul for the sake of their coffee so sought an alternative as the mushroom coffee was having a noticeable effect for me. This brand is comparable in cost & now soul selling required - in fact I would say it tastes better !!

If someone gave you this coffee not knowing what it was they you would assume it was a cheap coffee as it has a similar tang to it. However, knowing it's mushroom coffee it's acceptable and drinkable. I drink mine black and I would continue to drink it if it was better value.

I read about this first from Tim Ferriss, but the reviews here weren't quite as generous, so I did not buy any. However, there were some free samples at work. After an hour or so of trying it, I felt a calmness and focus which I have not had on other nootropics /enhancers that I have tried. For example, caffeine usually leaves me jittery and stronger items, whilst being very effective had certain side effects (irritability etc). On this coffee, I also found myself much more reflective, being able to think more before I speak (my partner appreciated this). Do not expect this to taste like your finest roast and ground coffee, it is not bullet proof (which I used to love until they stopped shipping to the UK), it tastes more like your average instant Nescafe. If it wasn't for the benefits, then I would not drink it. For nearly £1 a coffee it is expensive... but relatively.. a bag of roast and ground would be around 20p vs a starbucks £3. So it depends on what you compare it with. Personally, I have forgone the Pret Latte and have one of these and bought a good coffee pod machine to compliment it. Overall, this may or may not work for everyone (people are built differently), but it is worth trying (it would be nice if they did smaller 'sample' packs.)

This coffee tastes better than I expected. Doesn't taste of mushrooms but more like a cheaper instant coffee. I have been drinking for about a week now, one cup in the mornings, and apart from a caffeine withdrawal headache on the first day I have felt no different. I will try for a longer time, but it is very expensive and I'm now considering a supplement instead for a stronger dose.

Tim Ferris plugs these on his podcast as being amazing for concentration and creativity and eventually I thought I would give them a go. It was a smaller box than shown but had the 10 packs of coffee in so no issue. It tastes slightly earthy (is mushroom after all) but generally tastes like a cup of coffee. As for the concentration benefits I found it did seem to work. While I did not feel any different I did find I got a ton of computer based admin tasks done that had been on my to do list for a while each time I drank this. The effects (or at least perceived effects or productivity momentum) seemed to last for a good few hours until the end of my work day.

Taste better than expected. Getting my coffee fix without the added irritably. Feel more balanced out.

Unfortunately I did not like the taste of tgif at all. It doesn’t take like coffee even though it has actual coffee in it. Although I am a coffee snob and don’t usually drink instant.
