You know they say it tastes bad and works great!!! Yes it does taste pretty darn strong. And almost like a pine tree taste lol. I actually used this in the winter time and figured I would give it a try. It was very strong going down and I had too immediately chase it with some orange juice. For me this product as great ingredients as they are more natural in comparison to the other that are on the market. But unfortunately this syrup gave me zero relief and it didn't really help me at all. So I don't think I will buy this again unless they change the formula. It did work pretty good for my husband as it loosened up all the mucus in phlegm in his throat and wasn't in that much pain afterwards. So its a winner for him and not so much for me

You can buy this for 8.99can at Walmart

This is the worst tasting cough syrup I have ever tasted. When first tasted it I had to grab the bottle and read the directions again to make sure you were suppose to ingest it. It tastes the way that old fashioned pain rub liniment smells. I gave it to my mother and she took it with no problems , the taste didn't bother her.

You know, it is god awful. And I find it works most of the time but I have found that other brands are f cough syrup that taste less awful work as well.

I know the saying is "tastes awful but it works," but for me, the only part that has ever rung true is the taste part. I've tried Buckley's cough syrup several times in my life when I've been sick and the only thing it's ever done is given me shivers so bad I felt like throwing up. Not a feeling I ever want to experience when I'm already feeling yucky. A lot of people swear by Buckley's, and that's awesome if it does the trick for anyone, but unfortunately it just isn't for me.

I did not find this very effective for a bad chest cold I had 4 years back.

Every time I have a sore throat, this is what I reach for. It tastes so bad.. but it does the job!

It tastes horrible, and for me it did not work at all
