I am not against Camomile, but for me it was always a “tisane”, and nothing more – something that my grandfathers dranked before sleeping. Here with rooibos, camomile’s flavour gets bodied and that’s a very good thing, because it suddenly gets a full tea’s status in my mouth. I enjoyed it very much.
As alway for (not green) rooibos, you don’t have the full body of it if you let it steep for less than 5 minutes. In that case, it’s crucial.
