I use a product called NuStevia, marketed by NuNaturals out of Eugene, Oregon. It has absolutely no after-taste that I can discern. It's expensive -- $24.00 for 12 ounces, but at the use rate of 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon per mug of coffee, a 12-ounce container lasts a long time. MA

It is from a perennial plant in Central and South America, part of the chrysanthemum family. It goes back to the 1880's. Used for a long time to sweeten their drinks. Today it is grown and harvested around the world. Don't use too much as I agree with Harold, it does have an after-taste. Are you looking for an alternative sweetener, low in calories? Agave nectar isn't sugar or calorie free, but it's natural. The taste doesn't leave an after-taste. Laurie
