Our Organic Vanilla Rooibos is a extremely popular. It is an Organic blend of honey-sweet, woodsy rooibos needles and aromatic, creamy Madagascar bourbon vanilla with real vanilla beans. A sultry vanilla-orange-cedar aroma wafts from Vanilla Rooibos’ dark ruby brew. Its full flavor has notes of orange zest astringency and vanilla sweetness, with a boldly spicy-sweet finish. Vanilla Rooibos is delicious on its own and phenomenal as a tea latte.
Company description not available.
I can see two big chunks of vanilla bean in my heaping teaspoon of rooibos blend steeped in 12 oz of 200 F water.
There is a strong honey aroma over the cup and another sharp aroma I can’t place. The liquor is clear and has a nice, deep red-brown color.
The taste gives me a warm honey flavor, then a sharp vanilla flavor, then the soft, earthy rooibos taste. The sip is not earthy overall, likely due to the strong, almost pungent vanilla taste. I think it balances the honey and earthy rooibos flavors well. A vanilla aftertaste remains.
I like this one enough to consider ordering more than this sample and trying it with milk.
’Here’s Hoping’ Teabox Round #4 – Tea #28
Actual big vanilla pieces in this rooibos. The flavor is very sweet… definitely vanilla. Sadly the rooibos is on the smaller side, so it does seem to affect my throat even in a teabag. It’s a good thing the vanilla is so icecreamy tasty!
Steep #1 // just boiled // few minute steep
Steep #2 // just boiled // few min steep
I was looking forward to this tea – warm, nutty rooibos with a hint of cream. The problem is, the vanilla was so heavy, there was no “hint”-ing involved. I felt hit over the head with the vanilla instead. Good quality vanilla, to be sure, but not a seamless enough marriage of balanced flavors for my taste. Perhaps a different kind of vanilla would have been better?
