I'm an autistic adult and used to use alcohol to try to reset after work or social meetings. It helps regulate my mind when I am overwhelmed. I am so grateful for Garba Sentia.

OUR STORY:
SENTIA Spirits founder Professor David Nutt has been a pioneering force in psychopharmacology for over thirty years. He has published more then 500 original research papers and 34 books on a wealth of topics in psychiatry, from his early work in sleep studies to his more famous interventions in drug policy and the study of addiction.
As an expert on the ways alcohol interacts with the body and brain, Professor Nutt realised that he could isolate the mechanism we associate with the desirable effects of alcohol—relaxation, increased sociability & improved mood—from the negative effects, by developing an alternative that exclusively targeted the brain’s GABA system. Professor Nutt founded SENTIA Spirits in 2020 to bring functional alcohol alternatives to adult social drinkers.

Am a big fan of the company and product
Am a big fan of the company and what they're doing. I like all three versions (esp with ginger ale) and the red and dark version both make me feel more relaxed (the gold one is "merely" a very pleasant mixer).
The company is a delight to interact with. I once had a mix-up over a credit card payment and they sorted it out v quickly. All in all - fab company and product and happy to recommend.

Promised Much, Delivered Very Little
Unpalatable flavour, complete absence of any notable effect and extortionately priced.
Shan't be purchasing again.

Hi there,
Thank you for your review of SENTIA and we are sorry to hear that it did not meet your expectations.
SENTIA consists of a concentrated blend of botanicals and the taste can be challenging for some. As for the lack of effect, this could be for a number of reasons:
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.
We appreciate that SENTIA is on the pricey side. Alcohol is cheap to mass produce, making a bottle of SENTIA Spirits is a complex process. Our ingredients contain high quality functional plant botanicals such as Ashwagandha, Tulsi, Sage, Nigerian Ginger root and more sourced from fair-trade suppliers around the world. SENTIA Spirits cost more to put on-shelf, than a premium alcohol spirit does.
Thank you for trying SENTIA.
Best wishes,
The SENTIA Team
I will buy a bottle for parties and functions
I have tried 100mls on 3 occasions now of the red and am starting to appreciate the effect. The first time I felt unsettled as I was unused to the sensation. The second time I like the flavour, especially with Indian Tonic, but my wife is less of a fan. While I would not buy it regularly as I don't drink alcohol, I will buy the odd bottle to take to parties and functions to share with other non-drinkers.

Very disappointed with Sentia
Very disappointed with Sentia. In my quest for an enjoyable non alcoholic drink I ordered both the black and the gold. The taste of the black one, I found very medicinal even with a mixer and the gold more palatable but not particularly good. Even though I am a non drinker, I felt no effects at all. I could have been drinking orange squash!
An expensive experiment on my part.

Dear Diane,
Thank you for your review of SENTIA Black and Gold and we are sorry to hear that it did not meet your expectations.
SENTIA's strong botanical blend can be challenging for some individuals, but we also have many regular customers who absolutely love the taste of SENTIA.
As for lack of effect, this could be for a number of reasons:
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.

Thank you for trying SENTIA!

I love the idea
I love the idea, I also love the taste, I purchased a gold, and a black bottle. I tried them both as shots, just to get a sence of flavour etc, the black one is interesting, with lots of flavours leaning towards a bitterness that I quite enjoy.
The gold one is just lovely,colour and flavour wise. Leaning more towards a sweetness, but definitely not over sugary!
I also mixed them with tonic water and enjoyed both. more as a long drink, rather than a shot!
I'm really happy to use this as a substitute for alcohol, it tastes good, I have felt uplifted and more chatty, but I think the biggest buzz for me is that I'm not drinking alcohol everyday. My sleep is much better and I feel a lot more energised in general.

I was sceptical to be honest, but we had a lovely time, merry, chatty then sleepy, felt fine the next day.
It feels like when you’ve had just enough, no wooziness no headache

Delivery took longer than most…
Delivery took longer than most companies, and the flavour was not well described on the website. The dominant flavour was licorice, and this was not mentioned.

Dear Dawn,
Thank you for your review of SENTIA GABA Black.
We are sorry to hear delivery took longer than expected. Your order was placed during the bank holiday weekend which is why there was a slight delay. Our apologies for any inconvenience.
SENTIA's taste is very individual and the experience can vary from person to person. We add the same amount of liquorice to all three variants. Black is known for its spiced pepper warmth, smooth, earthy body and smoky bitter finish.
Thank you for trying SENTIA!
Best wishes,
The SENTIA Team
I liked the herby taste
I liked the herby taste. I took the 25ml with some lemonade and at first I felt a little lightheaded, but then more relaxed. It was a quite different feeling than being intoxicated, if anything I felt more sober than normal in the sense of being deeply focussed and relaxed.

Dear Catherine,
Thank you for your review and we are happy to hear that you had a positive experience with SENTIA. SENTIA stimulates the natural GABA receptors in the brain to promote relaxation and that is what you felt. Cheers to more relaxing times with SENTIA.

Quite a pleasant taste but any impact…
Quite a pleasant taste but any impact on mood was barely perceptible. Because of the price I probably won't buy it again.

A great switch from alcohol.
I keep wishing Sentia was more widely known and also available in pubs and restaurants. It’s such a great way to get that warm, relaxed feeling that many use alcohol for, but with none of the drawbacks. Try it - it’s worth it!

Bit Shocked
Bit Shocked
I have tried so many alternative non alcholic drinks. They all try to mimic the taste but this mimics the feeling, that was a bit of a shock. I tried red, i'd put it off for ages because of the price but eventually bought some and mixed it with Fever Tree raspberry and rhubarb. The difference is that it doesn't taste like anything you recognise, it's a tart but nice herby, fruity, sharp flavour but has the kick of a gin or vodka. It mimics the sour hit in your mouth and defiantly has the mild felling of a small gin and tonic. I'm interested to try the rest.

Hi Jeremy,
Thank you for your honest feedback. We are sorry to hear that SENTIA isn't for you.
SENTIA is made up of ancient plant botanicals, which give it a distinct and sometimes, unfamiliar taste; these plants have been carefully chosen for their relaxation properties.
We are constantly striving to improve our recipe and do work hard to create a tasty product, however, we do prioritise the effect above all else.
We have many customers/subscribers who enjoy the taste and order regularly.
We suggest serving SENTIA with a mixer (like you would a standard spirit), and we have a range of cocktail recipe ideas on our website too.
Our simple serves include: Red and Tonic, Gold and Lime Soda and Black and Ginger Beer.
We hope you'll give us another try in the future.
Thank you!

Gold - Ideal For All Seasons Cocktails!
See my 20 February 2024 review & read in conjunction with this one.
That review dealt with Red & Black whilst this one focuses on the Gold version.
Since first getting Sentia, I've consumed very little alcohol. That's great news for my health.
What is nice about Gold is that it looks like a cocktail & pretty much tastes like one.
It's fruity, zesty, spicy and ideal mixed with tonic & ice. It would also lend itself to many other cocktail combos.
For me, I've found what I believe to be an ideal partner - a good quality non-alcoholic Prosecco! This also works very nicely with the red.
And, of course, what about "the effect?" Well it's certainly there & I think it maybe stronger with Gold than it is with Red.
I'm looking forward to warm summer days on the lounger in the garden with a Gold (or Red) Prosecco cocktail ready to hand.
Yum yum.
