Freshens breath like no other!

I love cinnamon Altoids! It has a very strong cinnamon taste and comes in an easy to carry little tin that fits perfect in my purse. I like that they dissolve rather quickly and breath stays fresh for quite a while after I use it. If you like a really strong cinnamon flavor, I would definitely give them a try!

Thumbs up if you like cinnamon.

I am a big fan of Altoids Curiously Strong Mints since they really pack a punch as compared to many breath mints on the market. They are also a nice size. Personally, I like to buy the small container that has the tiny mints because it is easier to keep in my purse. All flavors are available in the smaller container, including the cinnamon. If you are a cinnamon lover, these are a great bet for you since they are super "cinnamony". I am not particularly fond of cinnamon, but bought this flavor by accident, and also liked them. They will definitely help improve your breath and change the taste in your mouth when you are unable to brush your teeth or use mouthwash. I have found them to be great to have on hand when traveling, after going out to eat, in the movie theater after eating popcorn, and in my car glove compartment. Caution: They are a bit "hot" in the sense that the cinnamon is strong. I have offered these mints to friends who were initially surprised at how much they "pack a punch," and didn't really care for them.

Very strong indeed! Too strong for munching.

These mints are definitely curiously strong, as they say. So strong that they are not for munching. What I mean is, some treats are great for stuffing your face with a bunch and getting a blast of flavor and sweetness. But not these. They have such strength that they make my mouth tingle with just one candy. I have to open my mouth and fan my mouth because the taste is so intense. But this means that they have a different use than munching. The cinnamon flavor gets rid of bad breath very effectively, and because I only need one at a time, the box will last a long time. And the tingling effect actually feels good.

Definitely Strong!

The cinnamon flavor is very strong and helps to keep your mouth tasting and smelling fresh. I like this flavor better than the mint because it is a little spicy! I think these work better and last longer than regular gum and mints. The package is also cooler because it comes in a little tin you can later keep things in, I for example, keep my pencil sharpener in one of mine. These are effective, tasty, and better then regular gum or mints!

A tin full of extremely strong cinnamon flavored candies.

I have never been a huge fan of Altoids mints anyway, however they do freshen breath like no other mints out there so I have used them on occasion. I tried the Cinnamon Altoids because In was sent a free sample. They are virtually inedible. They are so strong you can't really keep them in your mouth, but don't make the kistake of chewing them up either. Yuck!

Tasty treats that freshen your breath

Altoids mints have a long lasting breath freshening effect without a harsh mouthwash-type taste. They are great for a sweet treat now and then (especially with the sour or cinnamon flavors) or for a mid-day fresh breath pick-up.They kind of remind me of something a sweet little old grandmother would carry in her purse to make little girls wonder," What's that fancy thing?" As an added bonus, they come in cute vintage-looking containers that I end up reusing for all kinds of things from business cards to stickers and flashcards for the little ones. It may seem odd, but I hope they never sacrifice their quality or their style. Something about the packaging on these items make you gravitate straight for them. They stand out as somehow higher quality just for the mere fact that they come in a tin instead of cardboard or plastic. Whoever does their marketing, needs a pat on the back. And their cinnamon has outstanding breath freshening power. I've heard some complain that it is too strong, but I like a good strong cinnamon (especially if it is supposed to freshen up my breath).

Be Sure Your breath Is Fresh

Where I work it is often a face to face environment. Because of this being sure that my breath is fresh is a must. Altoids Curiously Strong Mints in Cinnamon The cinnamon flavor may be strong to some but to me is refreshing and assuring. Altoids can be easily found in many different stores including convenient stores. Oh the delight of knowing that one has fresh breat is a lovely feeling. You should try it yourself.

Altoids are the ONLY mints that I go to.

these altoids are DEFINITELY strong, but it does not make me shy away from them. in fact, i LOVE how it clears my sinuses! I feel like there are very few "genuine" mints out there. and it's comforting to know that they use real sugar instead of those unhealthy substitutes. THEY ARE HIGHLY ADDICTING! :)

Refreshing taste, powerful but not overwhelming.

The Original Celebrated Altoids: Curiously Strong Mints, Cinnamon flavor, comes in a red tin box approximately 2x3x.8 inches high and according to the box, comes with approximately 25 pink tablet-type mints that have a certain solid-powdery look, a bit like a lump of chalk. But of course it tastes nothing like chalk: popping it in my mouth, I first notice a light minty flavor that gently pools at the back of the throat. It is noticeably sweet upon tasting, but hardly so if merely left alone to dissolve in the mouth. The aroma of cinammon is subtle but unmistakeable.After some point the tablet begins to disintegrate slowly and here the 'curiously strong' flavor comes in. The first time I tried it I was rather surprised at how strong the minty flavor was but now that I have gotten used to it I find it not unpleasant at all and it is really quite refreshing. I am nearly finished with my tin of mints and will definitely be trying out the other flavors in its range. Also recommended: Altoids Chocolate Coated Peppermints.
