Organic Monk Fruit Extract, 5 oz, Pure Monk Fruit Sweetener Organic No Erythritol and Zero Calorie, Sugar Substitute, Powdered Monkfruit Sweetener Keto and Paleo Diet Friendly, 458 Servings

Great product. Small bag, but a little goes a long way. 1/4 teaspoon sweetens coffee/tea perfectly. No extra additives. Slight after taste, but easy to get used to for a healthy alternative and zero calories! Definitely worth the price. I transferred it to a glass jar with lid. Works well.

Dosage is key and it takes a few tries to get it right. For my favorite cup (a Dunoon bone china mug), a heaped spoon using the supplied scoop is about right for coffee, while a level, non-heaped scoop works well for tea. In terms of sweetness, it’s roughly equivalent to a spoon of sugar and does a good job of neutralizing coffee’s bitterness. It is not as sweet as monk fruit blends that contain erythritol—those required about four packets for me—but the absence of additives is exactly what makes this product appealing. This feels like a reasonable compromise: slightly less sweet, but cleaner. As of now, I’m not aware of any risks or unpleasant side effects, and I’m hoping it proves to be the healthier option over time. It is too soon to confirm cost but I expect this to be much less costly than the erythritol version even though the steep cost of a single bag.

I started using this because I needed something that sweetens without feeling heavy. The taste is clean and gentle and it mixes into my drinks without any trouble. I like that it does not leave a strange aftertaste and it keeps my drinks enjoyable. I have been using it in my daily tea and coffee and sometimes even in lemon water and it has been very easy to work with. It dissolves quickly without leaving any grainy texture or residue at the bottom of the cup. The sweetness feels light and natural and not sharp or overpowering. I like that it does not change the original taste of my drinks and just adds a mild sweetness. I usually need only a small pinch which makes it last longer than expected. It feels like a simple switch that fits into my routine without needing any adjustment or extra thought. It's been easy to keep using this without thinking about it too much. I don't have to adjust my recipes or balance flavors. I just add a small amount and move on. That kind of simplicity is what makes it practical for everyday use. It works the same way no matter what I mix it into, which saves time. I like that it fits in without turning into something I have to manage or plan around.

Yay! I previously used Stevia until I read they put Erythritol in their Monk Fruit! This WHYZ Monk Fruit does not have any fillers and tastes great! I am purchasing my second bag. Expensive? Perhaps, but much healthier for you! I did not experience any after taste and I love that they included a little scoop to administer the powder. Thanks for a great product!!

We go Ketogenic diet, whenever we need to lose a few pounds. Due to various questions about certain non-nutritive sweeteners, such as erythritol, and the somewhat limited info about allulose, we decided to try monk fruit extract alone. We had bought some monk fruit-sweetened animal crackers on Amazon and these were quite tasty. Well, the commercial producers must have some trick we're not using, because monk fruit both in coffee we brewed and in ice cream we made was a disaster. There is an aftertaste that is a cross between metallic and bitter and it overwhelms whatever sweetening benefit the extract provided. Also, whereas there are 1:1 ratio sweeteners where you have volume (similar to granulated sugar), there is no volume here. Trying to add gelatin or fiber to create volume in baked goods was a nightmare. And the aftertaste remained: the final nail in the coffin. Perhaps this was a bad batch or there is come genetic predisposition our family has NOT to tolerate this product, but friends we had over were honest enough to say it was unappealing to them, as well, noticing the same aftertaste. We threw out the coffee and the ice cream. A cookie recipe, two days before, also was a huge fail. I won't say the aftertaste is as awful as that in old-style saccharin products, but it's very close. Disappointing purchase boasting bad flavor and limited usefulness.

The monk fruit powder says it is pure which is a major plus, given the side effects of some of the sugar alcohols added to it and stevia. I like the flavor and use a small scoop for a large cup of beverage. No calories and no spike in glucose levels make this a sweet-a-holic's dream substitute. Haven't tried it in pies, custards, etc. since I don't keep sweet desserts in the house. For beverages I highly recomment it.

I am thrilled with the taste and finish of this pure monk fruit powder. Like many others, I cannot tolerate "blends" containing sugar alcohols like erythritol, xylitol, or maltitol. I also appreciate that this brand avoids fillers like maltodextrin, which can spike blood sugar. A NOTE ON THE "AFTERTASTE" I noticed some reviewers mentioned an off aftertaste, but I did not experience this at all. If you do, it is likely due to one of two things: ● PALATE SENSITIVITY: Monk fruit contains mogrosides (200–300 times sweeter than sugar). For some, this intensity registers as "metallic," while for others, it’s perfectly smooth. ● USER ERROR: Because mogrosides stick to your sweetness receptors longer than sugar, even a tiny bit too much can feel cloying. START WITH THE INCLUDED 1/8 TSP SCOOP. You can always add more, but a little goes a long way. HEALTH BENEFITS As someone focused on metabolic health, I love that this is truly zero-glycemic. It has a GI of 0 and doesn't trigger the typical insulin response of sucrose. There is even promising research suggesting monk fruit may help enhance insulin sensitivity over time. THE VERDICT: This brand is a clear winner for those seeking a clean, pure sweetener. If it tastes "off" to you, try using a bit less! If it's still not suitable for you, then you may need to stick with a "blend" that includes erythritol.

Very good sweetener Seems authentic, I tested it with CGM and it didn’t cause any issues

you think it's expensive for 5 oz, but it's not because you only need less than a quarter of teaspoon for each drink.

Do not recommend. Had a horrid taste tout and threw away my tea.

I hated the after taste
