Full Kin Kit by Kin Euphorics, Non Alcoholic Spirits, Adaptogen Drinks, 16 8 Fl Oz Cans (Kin Spritz, Kin Bloom, Actual Sunshine, Lightwave), 2 x 16.9 Fl Oz Bottles (High Rhode, Dream Light)

I've had horrible insomnia my entire life, as young as 5 I recall going 36-48 hours with no sleep. I've been like this my entire life. I decided to buy this product on a whim, expecting it not to work. I purchased it to develop a bedtime routine rather than expecting the active ingredients to play an active role in my sleep.There is no placebo effect here. The moment you start sipping it, this stuff has a palpable effect. It's very similar to consuming very high amounts of CBD. I'm high anxiety and very drug sensitive. Nearly everything worsens that anxiety, including melatonin. Not this. I feel relaxed and slightly euphoric using it, small physical pains from stress (clenching my jaw and back, a sore wrist from using a mouse for hours and hours, etc) melt away. I sleep very deeply, but not too deeply. A common issue with both alcohol and Mary Jane is a disruption of restful REM sleep, resulting in poor sleep quality and exhaustion over time. I'm still actively dreaming using this product, but my dreams are less stressful, sleep is more consistent/deeper, and I wake up feeling more refreshed. Though, I would not use this if you plan on only getting 3-5 hours of sleep in a night.On to the taste: My fiancee doesn't mind it, I despise it. If you've ever had pure aloe juice, not the sweetened stuff. The taste is very similar to that. Overly vegetative, almost like drinking water that steeped dirt like coffee. There is a hint of the spices referenced on the label. I've tried it with oatmilk and sweetened condensed milk. The sweetened condensed milk made it more palatable, but health wise I would recommend the oat milk. Drinking it iced/cold makes it all worse. I've been able to choke it down doing 1-1.5oz of Kin, 4-8 oz oat milk, 2tsp brown sugar, and a sprinkle of cinnamon. I think nutmeg and possibly cloves or allspice would mix well as well. I'm lazy so I just pop it in the microwave. The product has a tendency to sink to the bottom, so be ready to shoot it like a shot or mix constantly.I highly recommend this. It is quite expensive, but it's effectiveness justifies the expenditure in my life.

I bought both Dream Light and High Rhode. Neither came in the neat box I saw in reviews; just a loose bottle in brown cardboard and bubble wrap.Dream Light tastes horrible. I tried it straight at first and almost threw up. If you’re buying this, buy some oat milk to mask the flavor. I tried regular milk, but it seemed to curdle and get chunky when mixed. High Rhode is fine straight up, but Dream Light… holy hell what a disgusting drink. It’s very bitter, tastes like vommit with cinnamon. Somehow, mixing with oat milk saves it. It becomes like a creamy spiced tea. But you HAVE to mix it with something.High Rhode tastes fine on its own, but even nicer mixed with fruit flavors, sparkling water, or even just flat water. I’ve been mixing it with some berry flavor Mio Sport and tap water, and it’s really nice. Fruit is the way to go with this one.As far as claims of the effect it will have, I noticed nothing with Dream Light. Didn’t really help me sleep, nor feel calm while awake. It’s kind of a nice drink with oat milk—again, like a spiced tea—but doesn’t *do* anything. Certainly not worth the price. With High Rhode, I do notice a slight difference, but nothing crazy. An ibuprofen will give you more of a high than Kin will. Still, at least this one does *something.*Overall, not worth the money, and doesn’t really do anything. I’ve had my fun, but would not recommend to anyone looking for a good feeling, nor a good drink; this provides neither.

I have tried so many alcohol alternatives and found them to be awful. I come from a drinking family and my relationship with alcohol has alternated between healthy and unhealthy. But, I prefer this over ANY alcohol. As a bourbon lover, that is amazing. Sometimes I add a splash of sours, or just drink it on the rocks. But, it has honestly changed my life. The price is a little high, but alcohol is expensive as well. It is just a matter of where you want to put your money. It tastes so good and immediately relaxes me. I always read reviews, and that is a huge factor and when I purchase something. I have bought this a couple times now, and my honest review is that it is outstanding.
