Better than the Black flavor
Much milder flavor than the Black, which had to grow on me. This is lighter and citrusy. I find I can use a full “shot” of this and it relaxes me beautifully.

This product does not work
I took 1 oz and poured it over ice and topped with seltzer water.. an hour later felt nothing. So I poured another ounce and consumed that an hour later still nothing. Product does not work as described! And it’s expensive with no returns! Waste of money! Truly disappointed!!!

Decent Start, Yet Flawed
I'm usually too lazy to write Amazon reviews but Sentia products are getting such an odd division of reviews that I felt obliged to. For context, I've now consumed 2-3 bottles of Gold and 2-3 of Red but have yet to try Black. Most of my purchases were via Amazon but I did make the mistake of purchasing my initial bottle via their website (which added a hefty shipping cost and, if anything, took longer to arrive).So... where to begin? First of all, if you are actually expecting a buzz/intoxication effect that is very similar to alcohol without the health concerns, don't bother purchasing it, you're just going to be disappointed. I think a large number of the 1 or 2-star reviews could be explained away with this simple fact.But that does not make this product worthless. The "buzz" created is more of a mild mental calming effect with slight physical sensations. It does the job of taking the edge off after work or relaxing a bit in the evening versus consuming alcohol, but that's about it. Personally, I view this as a good thing, but I suppose if you're specifically looking for the less-inhibited, so-called "pro social" effect of alcohol you're not going to find that here.The taste is quite nice -- it's certainly not "overpriced fruit juice" as some reviews are suggesting. It's more botanical/bitter in taste.Alas, that's about all the praise I'm going to give this product/company. From here on out, it's critiques. First of all, Sentia needs to work with Amazon to make one listing page for all flavors. Jumping between product pages is not a smooth experience and it leads to more review division. Second, they need to step up their game on the logistics front. At nearly all times, at least one flavor is out of stock on Amazon, and I certainly don't care enough about this product to pay the hefty shipping cost on their own website.Third, and by far the most important part of this review... they need to clarify the serving size and do some more studies on the average effective dose. You are selling to the US market that probably includes a significant number of cocktail enthusiasts. We expect measurements in ounces, and the suggested serving size of this product is a joke -- change it to a standard 1.5 oz "shot" for simplicity. Alas, my primary issue with Sentia is that to feel *anything* close to the "buzz" I described above, I need at least 2 ounces per beverage. Okay, that's easy enough to pour, but now the serving size of this bottle just got slashed to 10 instead of 20. And I'm someone who was fairly naive to most of the "active ingredients" so I doubt I'm an outlier when it comes to dosing.So the TL;DR essentially becomes the following: Sentia is a decent product, certainly quite promising for the future and a significant step-up from typical non-alcoholic beverages that omit the alcohol yet not the carbs, yet the purchase decision boils down to the serving size (minimum effective dose, so to speak) balanced against the price tag. Is $40 worth it if you actually only get 8-10 effective servings? Only you can answer that question. For me that's an easy yes because there's not really anything similar on the market (in aperitif-style liquid format, at least)... but I'm certainly not thrilled with that price-tag.

Odd flavor and no enjoyment.
Hoped for a better taste and result. Not as good as described.

Love it
I am a great fan of Sentia and love this gold taste. It is the perfect ingredient for cocktails and even just a simple tonic welcome drink when I have friends over. It works great as a party drink and helps us all have an awesome time together. Also love the fact that it is way healthier than alcohol and doesn’t take a toll on us the next day because of a hangover.

Don’t bother
It made me feel horrible. Warm and itchy. I’ll just have a regular cocktail every now and then. It be much cheaper and more enjoyable.

Too pricey for not a great substitute; customer service good
I had high hopes for this as a non drinker. Its waaay too expensive. Did not give me any feeling even close to alcohol. With that being said, I did feel a little relaxed. Hopefully it gets betterUpdate: customer service was good. Contacted me help resolve an issues.

Definite mood booster
This product tastes good..very intense orange with a bit of zing. It’s great with a bit of seltzer. But it also had a significant effect on my sleep. On the nights when I drank this mocktail I slept very deeply and woke very rested. Would recommend!
