I accidentally got some in my mouth and did not like it--not so much bitter as unpleasant. The smell is not pleasant either but I put lavender essential oil in it and that helped significantly. I put this on my face at night to help with acne rosacea and it has been beneficial for me. It will stain clothing and bedding but put a towel over your pillowcases and this helps. I take the oil off in the mornings with a face towelette and have had no skin staining issues. If you want to take it internally, get the capsules which are available.

I only used this product (the oil) topically on my skin, which it turned orange and stained my clothing. I have consumed 100% Sea Buckthorn berry juice by Sibu and it is VERY bitter. I mixed with berries in a smoothie which made it tolerable.

Absolutely horrible. I couldn't get past the flavor and odor. I ended up throwing it away. I have been putting a 1/2 tsp of apple cider vinegar in an 8oz glass of water daily and my acne has cleared up after 20 yrs of struggling. I even bought the face wash with sea buckthorn Berry in it and I did not see a difference. It was a waste of money.

its one of my favorites ... fruity with a slight floral "after-scent". i smells as close to a passion fruit as an oil can get

I couldn't say for sure, but since it's a clear oil, I would doubt it. There is no taste so this can be added to your fruit juice, tea, or coffee. Personally, I just put the drops on my tongue. There is nothing disgusting about it. It truly works! You can over dose. I did it one day and had anxious energy the whole day. I'm so impressed with this that I've gotten 4 ladies close to me to start using it and now they won't go without it. All of us are either on our second if not third bottle!

It's pretty tart .. I tried mixing it in yogurt but it definitely altered the taste. I now just mix it in water

This is link to webpage which will tell you a lot about SB Oil. Read it all with comments - impressive. http://www.seabuckthorninsider.com/education/processing-and-extracting/ In my country (Russia) SB Oil in use for centuries. People grind whole berry, drain juice, dry out crumbs on towel, grind them again to make powder, add sunflower (or olive) oil to cover powder and mix thoroughly , close tightly, place in dark for 5-7 days. It will have up to 15% of SB oil. If you take new portion of berries and do it again with the same oil you will double it's concentration. Berry's juice also has some oil. If you place juice in a wide bowl and let it stay in darkness for 20-24 hours, you will see oil on surface of juice. You can carefully collect it with spoon. It will be 100% SB Oil. But in Russia people been using that 15% SB Oil, like I said, for centuries internally and topically with very good results.

Yes, there is a mild ocean/fishy smell to it. I use it in the skin, so I haven't tasted it.

It tastes very "earthy". Not a tea you would drink for refreshment but not completely off putting. It is tolerable when you remember why you are drinking it.

You can taste it a bit, so it has a sort of "bite" to it. However, since you don't take all that much at a time, its not bad. The raspberry taste is pretty good.

From my online research the fishy smell is normal for pure rosehip seed oil, mine is the same in odor.I store it in the fridge and that seems to neutralize the odor somewhat

To me, it has a burnt wood taste. And of course it's sweet. Does not taste or have an aftertaste like licorice root. Maybe I have a dud.

I'm sorry I don't know the answer to your question. I do, however, have another brand of sea buckthorn oil that I use on my face. It's called: swell. (Swellskin.net). I found it at my local grocery store and love it.

It has a peculiar taste (not pleasant) Tastes like fish oil! I would not personally buy it again.

I've only purchased La Tourangelle, so I do not have anything to compare it with. Aside from that, this is a very tasty oil. I have used it in salad dressings, stir-fries, baking and received many compliments on the delicious taste this oil gives to food. Another great use for this avocado oil is to use it as a facial moisturizer. It absorbs quickly and keeps my skin hydrated all day long.

not much of a flavor. I think they recommend putting this in water. I tried that but it does not taste that well. The best way I take this is put it in a little apple sauce or yougurt, take it all in one or two bites, then eat the rest of the applesauce or whatever. That's the way I like it best. Quick, easy, painless!

I don't notice any fishy smell. In fact, that's why I like this particular brand. I experience no fish smell and no fish taste. I have friends who say they can't take fish oil pills due to the "fish burps" they get, but I have never experienced this aftertaste with this product.
