Found this sitting in the pantry unopened from when actual tea gave me horrible stomach pains and I was drinking just about any herbal I could get my hands on. Tastes like a gentle spearmint-chamomile blend. Color me surprised, I’m used to sleep aid teas being horribly medicinal and hard to finish. (Looking at you, 90% of bedtime teas with licorice components.) Not usually a big chamomile person, but it works here. Probably the lack of strongly flavored ingredients that allows it to shine through instead of present itself as a “yep that’s chamomile” note? And the valerian has me blissed out against a pillow with my eyes fluttering closed at 8:45. Gonna give into that urge to sleep and let this stuff do its magic.

Flavors: Spearmint

Preparation
Boiling 8 min or more 12 OZ / 354 ML

Bio

Eel and tea lover. Big fan of dark oolongs, Nepal blacks, and fruity herbals. I occasionally make the terrible mistake of trying weird teas and then spend a good 5 minutes scrubbing my tongue with a toothbrush trying to get the taste out of my mouth.

Ratings:
100: Downright addictive.
95+: A definite favorite. This is something I’ll reach for again when I want something special.
90-95: I’d drink this again without question. There’s probably 4 ounces of it sitting by the tea kettle.
80-89: I’m glad I tried this and I’ll happily drink through the rest of the pouch. Might not be on the reorder list, though.
60-79: This is either mediocre and acceptable or I hate it and don’t want to skew the rating.
40-59: Uh, this is drinkable. Probably.
20-39: We’re entering the abyss. Here lies danger.
1-19: Please take me out if I ever try to brew this one again.

If I’ve recently reviewed something that you’d like to try, let me know! I usually buy teas in 25 gram samples and have extra to pass around.
