Is Thorne brand good creatine?
It is a very fine, but gritty powder. It does not mix well at all in cold water, even when using a spoon.
As a result, and despite my thinking that I would have no issues with a gritty texture, I drank the mixture without really obliterating the grittiness.
That was a mistake. Throughout the rest of the day, I felt like there was something stuck in my throat no matter how much I tried to clear it. Very very annoying sensation.
Eventually, it passed.
And from day 2, I made sure to mix the creatine in a small amount of warm-hot water first, and then once properly mixed with no gritty texture feeling remaining, I mix it with cold water and my protein powder. This seems to have worked well.

But I'm happy to see the mid-90s creatine trend is back in full force, and at prices much lower than we used to pay at Vitacost or...gasp...GNC.
I've sort of gotten to the point where I don't enjoy taking creatine as this is the only proper supplement I take and it can upset my stomach, but the benefits are there. I probably notice about a 5% strength increase once fully saturated with creatine if I had to quantify it, which is fine.
