Chicory Root Granules

My first time trying Chicory “Coffee”. This is a lovely warm beverage having nutty-earthy notes with an almost chocolatey finish. I find it a great alternative to coffee even though it tastes nothing like the Folgers coffee I love so much. I was looking for something that did have so many chemicals, additives and caffeine. This certainly fits the bill. Using organic Stevia and a bit of milk gives me the creamy texture I was looking for without the acid and caffeine of coffee. I use 2 tablespoons in a pot with 8 cups of water, bring it to a boil and then let it simmer for about 15 min. It takes about the same amount of time to make a pot of coffee in my coffee maker. I can leave it on warm on the stove and it does not “cook” the way coffee does so I can enjoy it for several hours. I had some left over and tried it over ice with stevia and it was very palatable as well. It goes a long way so I feel the value is there for me personally. I also found out the left-over grounds can be consumed as a fiber supplement when added to a smoothie or used to feed your garden. The only negative – It stains my teeth. However, whiting toothpaste helps with that problem.

Delicious. Don't expect it to taste like coffee, because it doesn't. It brews up looking like coffee and has a very roasted nutty/caramelized taste. I add honey and a little milk to mine, and wow, it's fabulous. I actually prefer it to coffee, and I'm a coffee drinker. It gives you that coffee experience in the morning, without the caffeine. It isn't acidic like coffee, which is great if you have any acid reflux issues.

By doctor's orders, I've been away from coffee/caffiene for a week so far. Chicory has done well to curb coffee cravings. I find myself looking forward to a morning cup. It's flavor profile is quite similar to coffee. Earthy, rich, bitter aftertones. The aftertaste isn't great, just odd. It's like mixing coffee with tea followed by the bitter aftertaste of something like a grapefruit. It doesn't persist after a few sips. It's worth noting that a proper 10 minutes simmering the grounds and water will mellow this. As positives: it has a good effect on digestion and elimination, I'm more relaxed when I need to be, and I have consistent energy. It's because chicory is a very mild laxative and there's none of the tit-for-tat that comes with caffeine.

The taste was great. Tasted like coffee and tea mixed. More like coffee. I will be buying this again. It does not mix well though. It has instant coffee / coffee beans like chunks you have to chew. I like it though.

This is a greath healthy alternative to coffee. Have tried other brands. Some claimed they were decaffeinated + chickory, but still had high blood pressure readings. Consistent lower readings with Herbaila chickory (my personal experience). This is affordable and of high quality. Careful packaging & speedy delivery! Had trouble giving up my 40+ year caffeine addition. I sometimes add a pinch of ginger powder (etc.) to give it a 'kick.' Chickory is also noted to have beneficial effects on glucose leveling. Needless to say, I am a long-term repeat customer.

I like the taste of this chicory. I make mine stretch by grinding it finer. It gets a 3 star because I couldn't reveal the package. I had to pour it into another container.
