Honees Cough Drops Reviews

Ginger Honees are seriously the best! I’ve tried a bunch of different ginger candies, but this one is hands-down my favorite. I just grabbed it on a whim at the store and honestly didn’t expect it to be this good. I’d never had ginger candy with a honey-filled center before, but wow—ginger and honey are such a perfect combo. I went back to the store to get more and they were out of stock forever, so I ended up ordering a 12-pack of Ginger Honees online. After having them again, I’m even more obsessed. Definitely going to put everyone around me onto these!

I love these! I will recommend to anyone who asked . Just knowing that at the end of the throat drop you get a pop of honey in your mouth, love it that it’s menthol free. Nothing artificial!!

I just love Honees honey filled drops. I drive Uber and pass them out to every rider that coughs. Everyone is surprised that they are so mild but effective. My go to every time now.

Literally obsessed with the plain ol’ Honees! Tried the ginger ones too & while they were too spicy for me, if you appreciate the kick of ginger, you will love them! So wish I could find the milk & honey ones near me; I think I’d probably be blown away by those. I have looked for them forever but I can’t find a single pack to try anywhere in my area (even with the store locator). :( But regardless…I’ve gotten so many people in my life hooked on Honees; I am never without some in my bag. :) One million stars—I’m a forever fan!

Hi Courtney, - Thanks so much for the great review. We've never received 1 million stars before! :) The Milk-n-Honey Honees don't have good distribution despite decades of trying. You can get them online via Amazon or iHerb. Thanks again for your kind words, ~ Charles, co-owner

I only buy these smoothing throat drops. They are natural and I love the Honey center. It really smoothes my throat and it tastes great.

I had come home from Christmas in Tn with a sore throat that felt like razors when I swallowed. I used the Honey Ginger Lozenges that evening and the next morning; I could not believe how well it worked and no more soreness discomfort.

We enjoy the Honees and share them with friends and family. My cousin from Florida tried one at our home from our Honee just I leave open on the counter. Her first word was " these are great, where do you buy them?". I gave her several to take with her and told her where we purchase our bags of Honee's. She will now be a repeat customer and purchase often like we do. Quality product for a reasonable Price!

Had these when I was super ill and they were a lifesaver. I hate menthol and they were amazing! Super nice texture and really good taste too.

Thanks, Brian! Honees have been made in the same small factory in Italy since 1932. We're determined to keep the tradition going. ~Charles, co-owner

I’ve used the “Green” bag Honees drops and the “Yellow “ bag Honees drops and they work really really well for throat and congestion! I’ll try the Honees with gingsing next. As an added bonus, the flavor is great and doesn’t leave that medicine aftertaste!

Thanks Mark. I think you meant 'ginger' where you wrote 'ginsing' which we don't have. The ginger IS strong, so fair warning ;-) ~ Charles, co-owner, beekeeper

So I just bought the ones with honey menthol and eucalyptus. They are disgusting! I bought them from a CVS here and the store never gave me a receipt. And since I ate one they won’t honor the return. So I reached out to the company customer service and the representative was very rude. She said I could be lying. Like girl why would I lie about buying something that’s $3 and if I think they’re nasty that’s my thought. Then when I ask to speak to a supervisor she said no. This company customer service sucks. I would not recommend buying anything from them because if something happens they won’t honor your request and the unprofessionalism was uncalled for.

I'm calling BS on this one. This person was abusive to my employee who spoke with him, and also on the profane message he then left in my voicemail. Sorry he did not like our product; he still doesn't get to treat my people like garbage.
