This was oddly sweet, and not as woodsy as I’d expect a rooibos to be. Maybe I didn’t steep it long enough (I’m a chronic shaver of steeping times because I just hate the bitterness that comes from oversteeped tea). The smell of the spices was nice, but didn’t particularly remind me of autumn.
Thanks to LiberTea for passing on a sample!

With a rooibos tisane, though, you don’t need to worry about bitterness because it lacks the tannins of a regular tea (tannins is what makes a tea bitter when oversteeped). So as long as there are no tea leaves in the blend, you can steep it longer. :)
Good to know, thank you!
