Why choose black goat extract as a birthday gift for Mom?

흑미담 Black Goat Extract (흑미담 흑염소진액) was my gift pick for a year when Mom's birthday landed right on Family Month (Gajeong-ui-dal, May). With her birthday and Family Month overlapping, I was even more stuck on what to get. Flowers and cake are what I give every year.. so this time I wanted something that really helps her body, and that's how I found 흑미담's black goat extract.

Black goat is what people usually think of when they want to restore their energy, but the odor worry keeps many of us from trying it, ugh. That was my biggest concern too, so,

before choosing it for Mom, I drank it myself first! I figured if it was good, I'd give it to her, so I checked the taste first.

What is 흑미담 black goat extract made from?

The first thing I looked at when choosing black goat extract was the ingredients. 흑미담 uses only female Korean black goats, and what caught my eye was that it's simmered down richly without adding lots of water.

Black goat is known to be rich in nutrients like protein, iron and calcium, so it's popular with people who tire easily and with parents who have cold hands and feet and little strength. It's also known for helping warm the body, so I felt it works well as a restorative food during spring and autumn season changes or whenever you feel drained. However!

Who should be careful with black goat extract?

If you run hot or your face often flushes red, it's a good idea to check your own body condition before choosing black goat extract, haha. When I gave it to my mom once, she now tells me first to place another order, lol

Does 흑미담 black goat extract smell or taste gamey?

When I drank 흑미담 black goat extract, there was almost no gamey feel, and since it's highly concentrated, one pouch was plenty. The clean, odor-free taste made me even happier with it! Reviews of black goat extract always bring up the smell, and this product was clearly different on that point. They say they put effort into the whole pre-treatment process and added Korean herbs that go well with black goat to reduce the odor, and it really did turn out that way. The first taste is slightly sweet and then

a faint herbal aroma rises up. It isn't a nose-stinging smell but a soft scent, so it was easy to get down. Maybe because it's simmered down richly, even one pouch feels full, not watery.

How to drink black goat extract so it tastes better

If you warm the pouch of 흑미담 black goat extract a little in warm water before drinking, the nutty richness comes out more, and I thought parents could take it without any burden. Thanks to this, I figured it would divide opinions less than other black goat extract gifts. So I guess that's why people choose it, like me, as a low-pressure gift for Family Month or Teachers' Day too, haha. Energy care with one or two pouches a day,

How much 흑미담 black goat extract to drink a day

I was told 흑미담 black goat extract is usually suitable 1–2 times a day, one pouch each time, so I had one in the morning and, on more tiring days, one more in the evening. I was also happy with the gift packaging. After a few days I felt less heavy when waking up and my condition stayed steady through the day, so I felt like trying it consistently.

Because it comes in individual pouches, it's easy to slip one in your bag, and you can drink it cold as is or warm it up, so you can choose to suit the situation. The neat, sturdy packaging also keeps up appearances as a gift for Mom's birthday or Family Month. Not only for people who've already had black goat many times, but
