When I added the water a distinct odor wafted up out of the cup at me. The odor of…raspberries??? That’s the only thing I can call it, and nary a hint of mango OR papaya in the scent anywhere. The flavour is predominently rooibos – not my favorite to begin with – with a rather faint, sweet, generically fruity taste.
Yeah…it’s not really doing much for me I’m afraid.

I think I’ve completely given up on rooibos teas. I’ve never had one that didn’t have that awful dusty rooibos taste that I dislike so much.
When I lived in the UK, I found a few red teas that were nice, including one I thik was called 11 O’Clock Tea, but it is hard to a roobios here in America that doesn;t get bitter quickly or is nice to drink by itself.
