I love coffee. I can often be found joking about coffee and my love for it on Facebook and Twitter. The one problem is that if I consume coffee in the late afternoon or evening, I find myself awake, unable to fall asleep at night. My better half also suffers with lack of sleep from coffee that is consumer later in the day or evening.
So when I heard about Counting Sheep Coffee I was pretty excited. Counting Sheep Coffee has two strengths, 40 Winks and Lights Out. Both 40 Winks and Lights Out allow you to have a coffee in the evening and it does not interrupt your sleep like normal caffeinated coffee does.
The first question you probably have is what is the difference between 40 Winks and Lights Out. 40 Winks is the original Swiss Water Decaffeinated Counting Sheep Coffee blend with Valerian. Lights Out is the newest and bolder Counting Sheep Coffee blend with more Valerian root that is found in their original blend.
Counting Sheep Coffee uses organic Valerian root which is said to be a herbal sedative. It is the combination of decaffeinated coffee and Valerian root that allows the consumption of the coffee later in the day and evening without disrupting sleep patterns.
I spoke to Counting Sheep Coffee with respect to the effects their coffee has on people and they indicated what I thought and found…..
What makes Counting Sheep Coffee unique is that it DOESN’T interfere with sleep, as most coffee does – even the average decaf. It is going to affect everyone differently, some people will feel sleepy and some will feel calm and some will feel normal, depending on their tolerance for valerian, but no one will feel caffeinated and that’s what’s key. People who haven’t been able to do so can finally enjoy coffee after dinner again or anytime after 3pm. It’s decaf coffee you can actually trust. For most people, they do feel sleepy, but everyone is different.
What the company claims is exactly what we found. For those of us here that have tried Counting Sheep Coffee, we did not find that it makes us sleepy. We certainly found that we could enjoy a wonderful cup of coffee later in the day and evening and it did not interfere with our sleep.
We found the taste of Counting Sheep Coffee to be great. To us it tasted like normal, great quality coffee. One person that tried Counting Sheep Coffee in our family indicated that they felt that they could sense an after taste. That was only one person that indicated an after taste though and all the others that tried it could not sense any after taste at all.
As always, please remember to check with your doctor before you try new products with herbal ingredients such as Counting Sheep Coffee. I am not a doctor and therefore I can only tell you about my experience with the products. I am in no way qualified to provide any insight or input into your health or ability to consume Valerian root and Counting Sheep Coffee.
Overall, I recommend that you check out Counting Sheep Coffee. It has received a lot of great press and support. They pitched to Dragon’s Den, Time, and Fox News to name just a few Counting Sheep Coffee features.
