Dear Paul,
Thank you for your review.
SENTIA Spirits are first and foremost designed for function. Our primary goal is enhancing GABA for relaxation and improved sociability. GABAergic (GABA enhancing) plants are difficult to work with, they are often bitter and unpalatable. We know that the raw flavour of our GABA Blend is not for everyone, which is why we always suggest pairing with a mixer of your choice first! This might seem counter-intuitive, but consider, pure ethanol is very bitter and unpalatable, its why humans brew alcoholic drinks in so many ways. Much like SENTIA Spirits, many alcoholic spirits are an acquired taste. I’m not a fan of the flavour of XXX for example, but it works well in XXX cocktail! Neat SENTIA Spirits are not for everyone, and we strongly recommend you experiment with your favourite tonic, soda, or alternative mixer. GABA Black is immensely popular with Ginger Beer (like a Moscow Mule) or Cola and lime (like a Cuba Libre) Red works well with lemon and simple syrup (Much like a Whiskey sour) or with tonic and a slice of lemon (like a G&T). We now also have SENTIA GABA Gold available which is more citrusy in flavour. As for the lack of effect, there could be a number of reasons for this:
Individual variances: Your GABA system is very much your own, and individual chemistry varies from person to person, so the experience of SENTIA will vary too.
Alcohol in system: Regular alcohol drinkers may have a high tolerance to GABA release, which will moderate the SENTIA experience. Studies suggest that you can reset your tolerance to GABA release by refraining from drinking for 2 to 3 weeks.
SSRI’s: (Selective Serotonin Inhibitors) anti-psychotics, tranquillisers and some epileptic medications may inhibit the effects of SENTIA.
Expectations: SENTIA is not designed to get you “drunk”, but offer a more refined experience. All feelings are of course very subjective, and will vary from person to person.
Context: There is a great deal of scientific evidence indicating that drinking (or talking any mind altering substance) alone creates a very different effect from doing so socially. The science suggests the same will be true with SENTIA.
As for price, SENTIA results from 40 years of scientific research and 5 years product development. Its patent-pending botanical technology gives rise to a brand new category of drinks. Produced via a unique, proprietary process, requiring cutting edge equipment and advanced skills, SENTIA is made for its effects and not just for flavour. Using significant quantities of real, high quality, organic ingredients, it is the world’s first alcohol-alternative to be classified a ‘food supplement’. In essence, SENTIA costs as much to put on-shelf, as a premium alcohol spirit does.
Best wishes,
SENTIA Customer Service

Hi Shane,
Thank you for your feedback. We apologize that our product did not meet your expectations. We are continuously working to improve our flavors and will take your comment into consideration. We value your input and hope you will give us another chance in the future. We have just launched SENTIA GABA Gold which has a citrusy taste and might be more palatable for some. Best wishes, SENTIA Customer Service
