I was diagnosed with interstitial cystitis (painful bladder syndrome) about 4 yrs ago and irritable bowel syndrome. Coffee was my go to drink. My doctors said no more caffeine. I did drink some decaf but regular decaf coffee still flared my IC. Just by chance my neighbor and great friend (who uses more natural foods, drinks, medicine) gave me a small bag of the teeccino vanilla nut coffee for Christmas. WOW! I do not even know where to start. First, the smell is AMAZING. As soon as I opened the bag, the aroma was breathtaking. I wish I could have walked around just smelling like that all day. Secondly, the taste is so beautiful. It was lightly sweet and creamy and was NOT bitter at all. I could taste all the beautiful herbs that suit the coffee perfectly. And lastly, it does NOT flare either of my health problems. Teeccino coffee is the only coffee I will drink now. I highly recommend this coffee. In fact, I tell all my friends with similar issues to pursue this brand.
