Four Sigmatic Calm Mushroom Cacao Mix – Organic instant cacao with organic reishi mushroom powder – For drinking or baking – Vegan, gluten-free, lactose-free – 10 servings

This is such a good alternative option for hot chocolate. I’ve been getting this for a while and really look forward to it as the taste is so good. Very different to the average hot chocolates that are laden with sugar so that’s all you can taste when drinking. I wish they would sell it in a pot to give more value but I will keep buying as I love it.

Greasy taste but not too sweet for me. Had personal response when I emailed them about this. Impressed with company.

I was a little afraid that I am not going to like the flavour because the cacao is really expensive compared with the brands you can buy in a grocery shop. However, the flavour is quite weak and I didn't feel any distinct taste. On the other hand, the cacao has a pleasant cinnamon aftertaste. The FourSigmatic website claims that the reishi mushrooms helps to support restful sleep. I usually don't expect much from these 'I will help you to sleep better' products, but after finishing drinking it I actually felt sleepy. The last thing, the sacket is small so you won't be able to get a lot of drink out of it; and don't put too much water - it will get too watery.

Mostly tastes like a hot chocolate, definitely notice a relaxing effect if taken 1-2 hours before bed. Quality of sleep is notably better. Would be great if they sold it as a large container instead of individual sachets to improve the value for money

Tasted weirdly but I think it's normal

I was very excited to try these as I enjoy treating my body to health products so I decided to give these a go, I originally thought these were quite pricey, but having thought further these are only £1 per sachet so they're not too expensive and cheaper than buying an unhealthy hot chocolate from a café. These taste absolutely amazing, they have a sort of relaxing / wintery smell / taste and got me to sleep very quickly. I received these yesterday which was 1 day ahead of expected date and they were in perfect condition- they were so good I ordered another box today so I have some back up when they run out :) delicious!!!

If you don't like overly sweet drinks with added sweeteners, I don't recommend this product. I initially thought it contained cocoa and reishi, but I was mistaken. Adding sweeteners to the product seems unnecessary, as it takes away the option for consumers to adjust the sweetness to their preference. It also contains cinnamon, but the label doesn't specify whether it's Ceylon or Cassia, the latter of which can be harmful in large amounts. Also if your order is wrong or you want a return Amazon does not give support you have to contact four sigmatic and they don’t reply.

I really wasn't expecting it to taste this nice as for sleep it's my first night so can't give an opinion but taste alone makes it very much worthwhile, will get back to you on the sleep part (although it has helped me to be calm and relaxed)

My ABSOLUTE FAV!!!! Oh I think I may be addicted to this lovely healthy hot cocoa! Love that it is PACKED with all the healthy nutrients of mushrooms. Yet ya never taste it.I have tried other brands but my sensitive tummy reacted to each. This is the first that did not flare me up. Yes it costs more but the smoothness and consistency in the flavor is sooo worth it! Also, Yes it does make a smaller cup size, and sometimes i like that. If I'm feeling like a larger one, I simply add a bit of raw cacao powder, pinch or two of ceylon cinnamon, and top it up. It took some experimenting to get the right ratio, but well worth it. Love this cup of goodness. Truly relaxing and enjoyable. Especially if you are dairy, sugar, Gluten intolerant. I have also added a dolop of chas whipping coconut cream on occasion, but only once or twice. I really enjoy the hot cocoa flavor of this one as is!

Lo sto prendendo in abbinamento con il Think Organic Elixir Mix perché sto affrontando un momento universitario e lavorativo molto pesante. La combo è perfetta ma anche questo singolo ( è stato il primo prodotto che ho acquistato ) è magnifico. Super super consigliato

I am a night owl and have always found it difficult to go to bed before 1:00 am. My best friend made me a cup of the Four Sigmatic Mushroom Hot Cacao mix when I was visiting, and I couldn’t BELIEVE how well it worked. I was skeptical when she handed me the mug, but I started yawning about 10 minutes later, and we called it a night. I had the stuff again the next two nights and, for the first time in months, fell asleep before midnight. It has an earthy, slightly bitter flavor, hardly sweet — but it’s not unpleasant at all. I find it pretty comforting. Each packet makes enough for 100 ml/3.5 oz/6.5 Tbsp of water (or your beverage of choice). If you want a full 8 oz mug of the stuff, you’ll need to use two packets. I use one packet for a small cup, and that’s enough to start making my eyes and forehead feel heavy. It is now part of my nightly routine at home. Definitely recommended! Update, July 2018: The price of this item has fluctuated drastically in the past few weeks and has gone much higher than what I feel 10 packets are worth, so I decided this past week to buy reishi powder in bulk and try making my own version of this mix with cocoa powder, cinnamon, and agave nectar. I figured out the proper ratios to mimic this blend, and it works great. To save on money, I'll be sticking with my homemade mix as my nightly drink, but I will keep a few Four Sigmatic packets on hand for when I'm traveling.

👍

This has a nice taste and is really well balanced on the sweetness side if you’re on a diet. As for the effects, it really does help to fall asleep.
