Is shilajit good? What does it taste like?
The taste of shilajit is quite distinctive and can vary slightly depending on its form (resin, powder, capsules, etc.) and the region it comes from. In general, shilajit has an intense, earthy flavor, often described as bitter and sometimes slightly metallic. The closest being the taste of licorice, but it is still very different:
Bitterness: Shilajit has a bitterness that can be felt upon first contact with the tongue. This bitterness is often associated with minerals and organic compounds present in the substance such as fulvic acid.
Earthy: The earthy flavor of shilajit is also notable. Some describe it as having undertones of topsoil, moss, or even minerals. This contributes to the complexity of the taste.
Metallic: Some users report a slight metallic note in the taste of shilajit. This can be attributed to the presence of minerals such as iron and copper.
Lingering: The taste of shilajit may linger in the mouth for some time after consumption, leaving a resinous sensation that may be felt on the tongue. It is recommended to drink it diluted in a hot drink to appreciate its flavors.
It is important to note that taste perception can vary from person to person, and some individuals may find the taste of shilajit rather strong. To tone down the intense taste, some people choose to mix shilajit with other substances such as honey with lukewarm water, or add it to drinks like tea.
The form in which shilajit is consumed can also influence the taste.
