Three Spirit Non-Alcoholic Alternative Spirit - The Nightcap, 50cl | Alt-Whisky | Unwind & Chillout with Adaptogens, Valerian, Hops & Lemon Balm | Award Winning Active Botanical Gluten Free & Vegan

I really enjoy this with diet ginger ale. It has a grown up taste and is not too sweet. Great alternative to alcohol. I don't notice any floaty feelings or feel more sociable when drinking it. I tend to only have 1 or 2 drinks due to it being expensive but it is cheaper on subscription from Amazon then buying directly from Three Spirits because you can just buy one bottle at a time and it is still free delivery for prime members.

The product itself is good,it helps to relax at night without alcohol,my gripe is... you have to use 50 ml each time,the bottle is thick glass so deceptive to how much you're actually getting,maybe spend less on the packaging and put more in the bottle! As I dont think many people can afford to pay 25 pounds for a bottle of not very nice tasting herbs that lasts approximately 3 days. Shame as I did find it relaxing,I may buy on the odd occasion if the price doesnt come down,but now currently sourcing something cheaper as It just too expensive sorry

This was the third bottle of Nightcap that I had ordered. I had even recommended it to a few people because the taste is quite nice. Although I never noticed a distinctive nootropic effect, I did feel quite relaxed when I drank it while cooking. I also found myself feeling sleepier than usual while watching TV after dinner. Overall, I was relatively pleased with the product, albeit it being overpriced (per ml, it’s almost 50% more expensive than Kraken rum). However, the most recent bottle I purchased from Amazon went mouldy after being open for only about four weeks (purchased 4th Jan). I’m not sure if it was a faulty product, but unfortunately, there is no option to request a refund or exchange at this point. My advice: try it, but don’t buy it from Amazon.

I've seen a lot of reviews here, a lot of them bad and all the good ones only seem to focus on the taste. So I thought I'd write my own opinion here. I've only had two drinks so far, but I can already say it's something I like and find quite pleasant. There is a very noticeable change in my perceptions and feelings. It's marketed as something to make you feel more lively, which it may actually do when in the right setting. Almost immediately, that my visual perception had changed. I felt my visual cortex had become alive and I was immensely more focused on my visual perception and experience. Like I could stare and kind of meditate at a simple image for hours. I did it shortly before downloading a new computer game so I found it somewhat helpful in keeping me engaged long enough to understand the basics of the game. This would probably be good at parties if you're feeling a bit sluggish and want to correct that. Taste wise, I don't think it was that bad. It tasted a bit like Bloody Mary, but less disgusting. I don't think I've tried Bloody Mary before (maybe only once), but it's basically tomato juice, which is revolting. This probably tastes a bit more like Bloody Mary than tomato juice because Bloody Mary probably has other ingredients to make it sharper, like the Livener drink. It's a bit much to enjoy for anything other than special occasions, though. It's nice, but not something so powerful and effective that it'll last for ages and is really worth the money. It's a nice novelty gift for someone who likes feeling sober, but finds parties boring. I'm a recovering alcoholic, so this might be good for family meals.

I had really high hopes for this as I’ve tried a number of non alcoholic spirits and had been waiting to get this one for a while, but sadly, this didn’t hit the mark at all. Okay taste but absolutely nothing special and I didn’t feel any effects of the herbs or botanicals as advertised. Really disappointed to be honest especially as it’s not on the lower end of things in terms of price for similar things. The branding and packaging is lovely, that’s it though! May appeal more to others but personally, I won’t be finishing the bottle or buying more.

As a dedicated Whisky drinker I noticed recently that there arent many alcohol free options open to a malt fan. I decided to sample some of the options out there. 1st things 1st.... this is not Whisky nor intended as a whisky replacement. It is however a drink that can be poured into your fav whisky glass and enjoyed in an evening. My thoughts; On the nose, Gingerbread, earthy, roots xmas spice. 1st Sip, instant realisation of smooth mouthfeel, with burst of earthy gingery flavour Finish, an amazing Ginger afterburn, enjoyable, lengthy & more-ish. So that was my 1st taste of an alternative spirit, I have to say i'm quite impressed and poured several of these one after the other into my Glencairn. I am a big fan of sherried malt whisky and have tasted a vast range of pricey malts over the years. Keeping an open mind about alternatives seems an interesting area to explore. I realise that there will likely be a lot of reviews with people instantly disliking non alcoholic alternatives but I think if you keep in mind this is in a genre of its own, its not trying to be anything, in fact due to its plant based composition I think it really is verging into its own territory of drink. I should note that I had a great sleep the evening after sampling, something that this bottling markets as an advantage hence the name Nightcap, was that a coincedance? I dont know but the botanists who put this together seem to claim it assists sleep. I think my initial thought with purchasing somethings so different to my usual whisky tipple was this: Was I purchasing a bottle of juice? after my 1st sip and noticing the thicker consistency It definitely isnt juice, it feels more special, more luxurious. Overall I would say this is in a category of its own and tbh I quite like it. In fact im keen on trying the other products from this company. As with all things every individual will have their own taste preferences, I happen to really like Ginger so naturally I would warm to this drink due to its Gingery notes and mild afterburn.

Excellent flavor. I like to drink this straight, as a shot. It contains valerian root, which is what helps you sleep. You won't feel sleepy after taking a shot, but if you go to bed an hour later, you will sleep well. Valerian root usually smells awful, but not in this drink. You mainly taste the botanicals, which have a rich, strong flavor. Just understand, this isn't liquor and it's not supposed to taste like liquor. It tastes like a rich, strong drink.

My friend recommended it. It’s ok, but not worth the price. I can’t say I feel anything of significance. These are three very small bottles!!

I recently tried an alcohol substitute elixir, and while it tasted fine, it completely failed to deliver on its promises. I expected it to provide a similar relaxed or flirty feeling to alcohol, but it didn’t give me the slightest buzz. For the price, which was comparable to a nice bottle of alcohol that would typically last me 2-3 months, this was a complete waste of money. It felt like I paid a premium for a glorified flavored beverage. I will not be buying anything like this again and can’t recommend it to anyone looking for an actual alcohol alternative. Save your money.

I wish this was either less expensive or came in a bigger bottle, but otherwise I am a fan of this product. It certainly has a different taste to it (not amazing, not terrible - the ginger is evident), so I like to mix it with some cranberry juice. What I love about this drink after consuming it is how it makes me feel which is: I feel good and truly energized. But not in a hyper, energy-drink way. It feels healthy, like natural energy, which I think is what most people are looking for. I know everyone is different, but I haven't found another product that gives me such a great boost that also feels healthy and doesn't leave a negative after effect (sugar crash, tired, hungry, etc.). That's why I continue to purchase this product and would definitely recommend.

What an absolute waste of money. A lot of money! Taste horrible. No effect on mood or mentality. Does not do ANYTHING it claims. Save your time and money!
