Hi I just wondered if the fennel tea and tummy fibre had a taste to them? Im thinking of buying them and wondered how nice they were?

The tummy fiber has no real taste but I put mine in about 1/2 glass of cold juice to dissolve. Let it set about 15 min after stirring. The fennel, which I love, tastes like licorice. If you hate black licorice you'll hate it. I mix a little mint tea leaves in with my fennel and that tastes fine too. YOu could try a small spice bottle of fennel from the grocery store to sample it. Heather's is a better buy and tastes much fresher.
Welcome to the world of tea!!!

The tummy fiber (acacia) has no taste or texture when dissolved in liquids or foods. I use it and I love it.

The fennel definitely does have a taste to it - a mildly licorice kind of taste. I personally quite like it but not everyone does. However, most people find it's ok when mixed with other teas if they're not too fond of the taste. Besides the taste though, it's a true godsend for bloating!
