![]() It tastes like a mix of PureLeaf and Gold Peak Sweet Tea. Sweet Tea & Lemon - (8/10), I liked this one, some people don't. This product is sweetened with sucralose (Splenda). This flavor tastes like a mix of Hawaiian Punch and Kool Aid, pretty impressive TBH. I find the main flavor in this to be very similar White Cherry which makes sense as that is a very potent flavor on its own. This product is sweetened with sucralose (Splenda).įruit Punch - (9/10), this is one of the most popular flavors for a reason, it has a nice blend of fruity flavors that makes water very tasty. I am not sure if they put less flavoring in these or if I just drink that much more water when I have this "sip" in the bottle, but it seems to run out quick, I get maybe a day and a half out of it, and that is on a setting of 3/10 on the dial. ![]() Seriously this flavor is almost addicting, its like drinking candy to me and its potent as well. This thing is packed with flavor and its actually like a sour watermelon candy flavoring to be honest, and I like it. Watermelon - (10/10), this is literally the only flavor on my entire list to receive a 10/10 from me. I average a 3/10 on the Cirkul flavoring dial on most products, a few as little as 2 and others as much as a 4. This is the closest I can get to Hint Water which also uses Reverse Osmosis water in their products. It seems like paying the $5 expedited shipping is the way to go if you don't want to wait 2 weeks or more.įlavor Ratings - *NOTE I have only used Publix brand PURIFIED WATER from PLT 12-595 a Municipal Water Source from Deerfield Beach FL, and that plant uses Reverse Osmosis filtering. On my most recent order I checked the box for $5 expedited shipping, BAM got it in 4 days! 2 days where it was in "processing/packaging", and 2 days for shipping, and guess what NO DHL, just USPS right to my door. Under their standard shipping they use DHL and then hand off to USPS, pretty sure this is why its crap. 2 weeks on standard shipping to go from one place in Tampa Bay to another, that is just crap. My first order took a total of 2 weeks to get to me, my next order took about the same. I live in the Tampa Bay area, so shipping times to me should be MINIMAL. Shipping - This has (as of this post) become a point of contention among Cirkuls customers. This is a well thought out product that still has some "teething" issues as it were. It seems like they are still trying to perfect their product but it works, set it to X and you get pure water, set it to 10 and its like drinking pure concentrate. Some of the "sip's" have leaked through the dial before, other's have not. Sip Construction - It's a well thought out design, however you don't sip form it, you suck from it, and you need to make sure you give it one last "sip" before setting it down after a drink or you will get a "water bubble" at the top that will leak down on to you later. Keep in mind Cirkul recommends using their product completely within 10 days of opening (regarding the "sips"). Do you need to purchase this product? Absolutely not, but its not a bad product if you want to swap out flavors regularly. Both the bottom and top are magnetically "sealed" and it cleans out easily. Sip Safe - Now this product is nice, it seems well constructed and it holds 2 "sips". Is it worth the extra money? It could be if you really want to see your bottle in a different color. Shock Sleeve - This is a nice product that was a bit of a pain to get on (took about 3-4 minutes), but it does add a slight no slip grip, however under a light grip it will slowly slide out of your hand, its a very soft rubber/neoprene feel. There are much better bottle products out there, and if they can accept the Cirkul system I could recommend going with their products over Cirkul's. ![]() I average about a 2/3 fill of ice each time for consistency. I get about 4 - 6 hours when the bottle is with me before all the ice has melted. As a pilot I also fly a Piper Archer II with no A/C and I live in the Tampa Bay region of Florida, so it gets HOT quick. This is in a central A/C cooled house with the thermostat at 75F. The bottle itself is well constructed, and I get about 8 -12 hours of ice depending on how often I refill the bottle with refrigerated water. I really wish they had a shock sleeve for their 32oz bottle and I have sent their representative an e-mail highlighting this request as well as their survey on their website under the Cirkul Insider section. I would like to point out that I purchased everything with my own money, none of it was sponsored or gifted, I am about $100 in at this point.īottle - I ordered their 22oz Stainless bottle /w their "shock sleeve". I have had my Cirkul water bottle for about a month now and have tested many different flavors and a few accessories, here are my thoughts for those that care.
