This inconveniently did not come with a scoop. The powder smells earthy, sort of like unsweetened cocoa powder. It blended fairly easily into my coffee, and with a touch of maple syrup (or your sweetener of choice) it tastes just fine. This was packaged nicely, but like other reviews, smaller than expected in size - fine by me, I'd rather not have a bunch of filler junk in the powder anyways.

I've only tried once but hope to update after using for a couple weeks.

I tried it in my tea today and it flavor was amazing! It has an earthly flavor as suggested. The scooper was easy to use and poor into my cup. I can't say anything about how well i feel just yet, since it is my first day. So far I love it!

I was noticing that I was having a hard time retrieving words here and there. Not as sharp as I used to be. I'm taking an rx that can cause this side effect.

I wanted to give this a try and see if it would help. I did notice a difference after one bottle (30 servings) It was subtle, but could definitely tell that I wasn't struggling to pull words, they were just coming and it was heaven. I believe I only missed one dose. Otherwise, I never missed. It tastes good in coffee. I use a little hand mixer/latte mixer to stir it in, first thing in the morning.

The container is difficult. I will be storing it in something other than what it comes in, next time. It's way too small to get down in there, when the product gets low.

I do recommend. Some say it gives you energy. I did not notice an increase in energy. I also cannot compare this product to any others out there. I haven't tried anything else before, but I can vouch for Four Sigmatic, FOCUS.

Item arrived on time & as described! â­â­â­â­â­

I have been using Four Sigmatic (super hero) defend blend to help combat chronic fatique for years now and I swear by it. It's the only thing that helps me get through my day. It's cheaper than some recommended medications with no side effects. I usually put one scoop into a cup of coffee in the morning to get a boost of energy, then another scoop in my smoothie which breaks down slower in my system, giving me energy throughout the day. I went from dealing with narcoleptic spells to being able to enjoy my life again. I've never had any complaints about serving size or cost, because it's been a life saver! However.. I feel the need to comment on the continued adjustments to their servings and packaging.. I loved their original tin containers and loathed when they started sending out plastic scoops with their product. These plastic spoons are just awful and make me grumble everytime. They collect clumped up powder. You have to go digging for them in the containers each time you use it, wasting any extra powder by getting it stuck on your hands or under your nails because the dried mushrooms react to the smallest amounts of moisture. You can run your hands together to try and get some of the product back in the container, but more than likely it's washed off in the sink. This stuff is GOLD to me, so even the smallest waste irritates me. And now they've change the scoop size and serving portion.. I suffer from serious brain fog, so a lot of my activities are set up routinely so I don't throw off my day. If the serving size changes and I don't notice, my day can go from good to bad real fast. I have a health condition where I have to monitor my heart, and if I accidentally overdose my coffee and my smoothie because I don't look at their suggested portions each time, I'm screwed.. I don't assume others deal with this same frustration, but I would love it if Four Sigmatic could ditch the plastic, sell us a branded starter container with a metal spoon and a bag full of powder, so we don't waste our money purchasing irrelvent items, and just add the freakin' serving size to the package. Not 1 or 2 "scoops" but real servings like 2 "teaspoons". Then I can set up monthly purchases for a replacement bag (hopefully eco-friendly) and determine how much of the supplement I want daily.
I don't want to speak for others, but as it stands for me, I'm a grown a** woman who is lucky enough to be blessed with the ownership of serving spoons, so I don't need all these protein and supplement companies supplying me with more things to recycle! It would be super radical to see one of these companies finally grasp that concept and stabalize their product..
