“What happened??? As soon as they changed the labels they all taste different! I don’t believe they’re using natural flavor anymore. Georgia peach tastes like there’s perfume in it and it leaves a weird chemical aftertaste on my tongue. I’m buying old stock at Grocery Outlet and when I run out of that I will be done. I’m so sad. I’ve loved Hint water for years!”
“I have been drinking Hint since it came out. I love that it isn’t sweet and just the hint of flavor. But the new flavors are terrible & taste over the top! Please bring back the old Hint flavors!”
“This has been my sole bottled water at home for a few years. Now all flavors I’ve counted on are gross and I have to find a drinkable brand. Whatever they did was gross. Ridiculous.”
“Hint is all I have drunk since it came out. Sadly the "refresh" has ruined a once great product. Most flavors now have NO flavor while others, like Georgia Peach, leave a nasty perfume like aftertaste. I won't be buying in the future.”
“This used to be my go to drink, loved it. However with the new brand refresh my husband and I both noticed a very big difference in the taste. Way more artificial , way more than just a hint. Bring back the original formula!”
“The bad changes started last year with replacing certain flavors like the Peach with “Georgia Peach. What was a delicious water that tasted like real fresh peach was a horrible perfume-like concoction that tastes NOTHING like peach. So, I stopped buying peach and stuck to the as yet (at the time) unchanged versions of strawberry lemon and watermelon. Well…they changed their packaging to the new blue labels. I didn’t think much of it until I tried them. Almost all of the flavor is now absent. It is diluted so badly that the product no longer is what it once was. After a good 8 years of drinking hint, I’m now buying up the last of the old formulas I can find anywhere…and the. I will stop buying them. Hint was ALL I have drank for years now. So sad that every good thing has to be ruined. Pretty soon, Hint itself will be no longer as they have destroyed their product. Extremely sad.”
“I’m so disappointed. Hint had been my go to drink for several years. I went from not drinking any water to only drinking Hint. After the “rebranding” it does not taste the same and I do not like it. I will not be purchasing Hint anymore. I liked all flavors before… not anymore. I suppose it’s a win since plain water is cheaper anyway.”
“It’s not just the new label that’s bland and artificial, the Crisp Apple and Cherry Hint are flavorless except for their unpleasant aftertaste.
I’m going to miss the old Hint!”
“What does the label say “still” water?
I used to buy cases of it… And I bought a case of the new branded variety pack, and it was disgusting. You’re losing a lot of money!!
Change it all back to the original HINT purified water recipe and process it the same original way. They’re obviously doing something different for it to taste so different!!!!!!! I’m both dismayed and disappointed. Bring back the original formula!”
“There is NO FLAVOR to the grape and other people have mentioned the same for other flavors. Hint lost a customer. I will not buy hint anymore. I also don’t appreciate your chat person stating the formula has not changed. Hint water is no longer worth the cost. Grapes now look like apples.”
“Coconut and watermelon, tangerine and cranberry orange were my faves, i've been buying them for years. The flavors have changed with the new branding and they are no longer just a hint there's basically nothing now. After my supplies run out I will not be buying again. Coconut is the most different that I noticed.”
“I always bought the grape and coconut water. They must have changed the formula. It barely taste like grape or coconut. Very disappointed and I will not be buying hint water again. You lost a good customer cause that’s all I drank”
“Peach Hint water: I used to love it, but now it has an awfully perfumed smell and tastes terrible. Not at all like the peach hint from years ago. I bought a case & after 1 bottle, I have to throw it out!”
“Hint?? How about "a hint of a hint"? My daughter bought a multi-pack of Hint, grape flavor, although considering that I couldn't taste ANY flavoring, it could have been any flavor at all. I was really looking forward to trying Hint, and I was sorely disappointed. We won't be buying this product again, especially at the overpriced price.”
“If I could give Georgia Peach zero or negative stars I would. It's terrible!!! It is so sweet I even tried mixing just a little bit with regular water and still couldn't drink it. Peach, the Original, was my favorite ever since Hint came out. BRING BACK PEACH ORIGINAL PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!”
“Original Peach HINT has long been my favourite. Last week a Georgia Peach case arrived and it's awful. Opened 2 bottles and threw the rest away. The flavour is so artificial, even smells like some sort of extract used for baking or candy making.”
