Move over, Certs. Take a back seat, Tic Tacs.  We’ve found an alternative to the mass-produced, chemical-laden, not-so-natural mints that dominate the market.

Called VerMints, the company was launched in a small kitchen in Vermont with a mission to create the highest quality and best-tasting mints and pastilles on the market.  You won’t find any nasties like high-fructose corn syrup, chemicals and meat byproducts in these tasty treats, only natural ingredients like organic maple syrup, Vermont spring water, natural ground ginger root and organic mint leaves.

Available in six flavors, they’re manufactured according to exact standards to prevent cross contamination with allergens; they’re kosher, gluten- and nut-free and vegan friendly, too. Plus, the unique, artful tins are perfect for reusing (they’re ideal for holding hair ties). Use the Store Locator on the VerMints website to find them in your area.
