Maax Caffeine Energy Gum | Focus Gum | 125mg of caffeine per piece | Cinnamon | 125 total pieces per bag

I've generally found caffeine candy, gum, etc usually tastes pretty bad. These actually taste good. It's a fairly sweet cinnamon flavor that does a good job of covering the bitterness of the caffeine. I'd compare the flavor to Big Red, but surprisingly it lasts a lot longer. Seriously, if this were just regular gum it would be really good. Per the package, when the flavor does finally end and it starts to go bitter, you can discard it. As a bonus, it freshens your breath. It's nice to see actual sugar being the sweetener. The caffeine hit is definitely noticeable as it's equal to a strong cup of coffee. Use responsibly as 3 pieces give close to the 400mg of caffeine recommended as the maximum daily dose by the FDA. Obviously, keep these well out reach of children. These are a great value in comparison to actual coffee. I will definitely be buying again.

For me this is the best flavor from Maax gum. They all have a lingering odd flavor that I can only assume is the high dose of caffeine. The cinnamon does the best job of masking it. $30 for 125 pieces is a pretty good deal. There is another I like better but after shipping it's almost $2 a piece

Caffeine without the constant sipping…this gum rocks!

Terrible flavor. I don’t know if I got a bad bag, but these are NASTY. I like most energy gum, usually the cinnamon flavor is my favorite. These are awful tasting and the after taste is equally gross.

The taste is great. At least it doesn’t cause me mouth sores like other cinnamon gums did. Also it doesn’t taste bitter like the spearmint flavored one. But the caffeine effect is very weak in comparison. I’m going to experiment chewing two at the same time to see what happens. I know the spearmint one I can only withstand one within an hour. Plus chewing two of those does make me slightly nauseous.

I have sleep apnea so even with using a CPAP, I am still very tired when I sit still and can fall asleep easily. That makes it difficult when driving. I’m not a coffee drinker. I’ll pop in one piece of gum On my way to work in the morning and it keeps me awake While driving and I’m not tired for hours. I don’t feel jittery or shaky at all and I’m good to go for the rest of the day at work. I’ll pop a second piece when I get in the car to leave for home after work because sitting still in traffic could cause me to doze off. This gum is a lifesaver for me!

I have a bit of a love/hate relationship with this gum. The first five minutes are a wonderful cinnamon experience, but after that it turns into the most foul flavor/taste you'll ever experienced. It stinks, because I wanted to see if this would be a viable replacement for energy drinks in the morning at work. The caffeine jolt that I get from this gum is substantial, but I just don't know if I can switch to this permanently with that flavor transition being so quick. The back of the bag even states, "When bitterness occurs, you can dispose gum. Don't worry, you'll still get the effects from the caffeine." Well, that bitterness occurs very quickly.In summary, the caffeine effect is absolutely present, but the severity of the foul bitter flavor doesn't allow me to go any higher than three stars.

Every now and then I simply can't stop for coffee or an energy drink. That's when this gum comes in handy. It has a great cinnamon flavor, and the caffeine boost comes on quickly.The gum can turn a little 'bitter' after ten or fifteen minutes, but since I drink unsweetened coffee, it wasn't an issue for me. Apparently this is a known thing, as it's mentioned on the bottle.I bought a pack of them, so I can keep one in my car and one at my work station.
