(no review title)
Nice alternative to the usual mint and fruity cough drops. Tastes like a hard caramel / butterscotch candy. The filling tastes a little chocolately, almost like a thin mint but less minty. I wish the filling was thicker because I feel like it didn’t coat my throat or provide much relief.

Very tasty
These are delicious. They have some stuff in the middle that helps to soothe your throat. I ate them like candy when I had a bad sore throat.

Reward for throat issues!
Flavor! Is so good. It helps with my throat and dry mouth issues. And it's like a little reward of candy. In fact if I knew I could just eat it like candy I probably would it's so good!

Awful Taste
Please beware they smell and taste like soured butterscotch liquor. I didn’t read the label well enough to notice it was caramel flavored, I spit it out and threw the bag out. They have a bunch of other kinds/flavors that are tasty and highly effective but these are a flop based purely on taste.

Best cough/throat drop ever!!
I actually loved these! I was hesitant about this at first but it starts with a creamy caramel/butterscotch taste and then has like a sweet mint— someone said thin mints and it’s so right! It’s very creamy and not overpowering. The liquid in the middle is the same. It’s so good! I hate menthol stuff and LOVED this!! If you like sweet mint and. Caramel then you’ll love this

Works great and tastes...interesting?
Definitely works! Flavor is just a little weird, though. Kind of tastes like a caramel or butterscotch candy but not totally. They will make your throat feel better, for sure. Ricola products are great, and this one complements them well with the use of pectin as the acting ingredient vs menthol in the others.

I'm glad I tried it
Good mix of caramel and menthol. It's a nice change from honey-lemon and cherry flavored cough drops.

Loved them
I am someone that generally hates the taste of throat lozenges, but I thought these tasted really good. They do great at soothing an itchy, irritated throat but if you're looking for something to help with a cough, you should get menthol drops instead. These have pectin.

Actually yummy and effective
I hate normal cough drops and other throat soothing medicines. This is the first one I can tolerate and even enjoy! It is just like having a little caramel candy with some extra soothing benefits. I didn’t buy these because I was sick, but because I get dry mouth from medication. These worked wonderfully.

Effective and yummy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These tastes good and helped when I was recovering from a cough. They are a good price for the amount, you get and are comparable to other brands. The packing is okay.

Odd taste.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This wasn’t the greatest flavor, especially due to them having a caramel flavor.. almost like a cough drop trying to be a Werther’s. Nice concept, but just odd.

Great buy!
These really helped my sore throat I had!! I love the flavor too, and the herbal taste adds a unique flavor to it as well. I woke up the next morning and my sore throat was slightly still there, but not as terrible! I’ll definitely buy these again.
