Firstly, not a complaint post :)
Had two batches of Sabroxy. First expired, just received my second. Both powder.
Normal, irregular/when needed dose is 250mg. Produces the nostalgic sunday morning feeling. Normally take before a walk etc. As new batched arrived today and work was manic, took a smaller 100mg awakener for the day.
New batch seems more pronounced and cleaner, and does the same effects at 100mg than old batch 250mg. Old batch 100mg didn't do this batches 100mg.
Taste is different on second batch - still tastes like ass, but a different type of ass.
Not a complaint, just genuinely intriguing, and maybe one for u/MisterYouAreSoDumb. Batch no: SBXS1111523.

Sabroxy is made from Oroxylum indicum plants grown in different areas of India, and harvested at different times of the year. The team from Sabinsa was out at our facility last year, and I asked them about variability in taste and smell. They have done a ton of testing now, and found that the volatile oils vary based on region and time of year. This is why different batches have slightly different tastes and smell. So the different levels of ass are from the volatile oils. The oroxylin-A and baicalein are standardized, though. Those are always the same. It's just the oils that vary. Could some of the volatile oils affect people, and cause them to react better to one batch over another? Anything is possible. I'll have to check with my lab team and see if we could use our gas chromatograph to elucidate exactly which volatile oils they are.
