      Definitely good for soothing your throat. I steeped it for 10 min @ 212 and got a delicious sweet flavor from it. I tried steeping a second time, and while it still had nice flavor, it was lighter and didn't have that coating factor from the first cup.

      The licorice and fennel in this tea are also good to have when your stomach feels a bit off, which is when I usually drink it. But of course it also has quite a nice taste!

      This tea is my go-to when I'm feeling under the weather. I sang in a large choir in college, and our biggest performances always coincided with cold & flu season. I can't count how many times I managed to get sick in the leadup to big shows. A few days of vocal rest and mainlining Throat Coat always got me through concerts unscathed, and I still swear by it today.

      My absolute go-to tea for those days where my throat is utterly miserable! Perfect with a little bit of honey and lemon

      I've been using this for years when needed. I work in theatre and everyone swears by it with a little honey.

      So I was recommended this by a friend of mine, and I love this tea. I always drink it when I know I'm gonna play my horn a lot.

      I just discovered this tea since I was sick. And it helped so much with my sore throat. I will definitely be keeping this tea on hand

      this is by far my favorite throat coat variety. Something I keep on hand at all times. It got me through strep without much pain at all. I highly recommend this tea to everyone as it also get sweet naturally the longer it steeps from the licorice root!

      I've found this really soothing for sore throats. I like the taste - it'll a little sweet, so can be drank without a Sweetner.

      Little bit of a weird flavor, and I didn't particularly notice it helping with a sore throat. In the past I've found things like chamomile and mint help me more.

      I do like this tea. It is not the best blend, but in a pinch it does help with sore throats. Available at most health food stores.

      Feels good on your throat when you need it, but not my favorite flavor.

      Helpful when a sore throat comes along. It make things more bearable.

      Helps if your throat is a little sore, but wouldn't drink otherwise.

      Not my favorite tea. Not sure if it really helps with my throat and I don't like the taste of this tea.

    • 

      Great tea to help sooth your sore throat. Not sure if it's the cure but it definitely helps

    • 

      This is a go to in my house. Not sure if the herbs really helped, but I love the flavor too, so its a win win.

    • 

      This tea is very comforting when I have a sore throat or a cough. The flavor isn't the best but it does sooth the throat and live up to it's name.

      Taste like cough syrup, but works like cough syrup.

      Listen: it isn't delicious, but GOD is it effective. This tea has saved my life so many times. Like the one time I had to sing a matinee with strep, or all the times that I've been sick or overtaxed. Yes. Throat Coat is the bomb.

      This is great tea! My friend recommend it to me when my throat was hurting.

      Flipping love this tea! Anytime my friends have not tried this tea I give them some because it's a little sweet but it works if you have a sore throat and tastes amazing (let's be honest I drink it even if I don't have a sore throat).

      Love this stuff. Sweet without sugar, great smell, and it really does help a sore throat. I always keep a couple of boxes handy. It does seem to have a shelf life, though. Tastes substantially different when stale.
