Similar to the Bonita. I liked it very much. I may order this next time I make an order. It's mild and flowery. Not at all sour.
Citrus flavors of lemon and orange paired with the light-bodied natural fruitiness of green rooibos.

I found this green rooibos to be more mellow than red rooibos and the citron makes it perfect for hot and iced tea.
Very tasty and light great with flavored honey thanks
A friend of mine gave me a sample of this tea for Christmas. This is now MY tea, the one to rule them all.
A decently pleasant lemony tea. It's fine, but I like Bonita and Key West a lot more if we're going for green rooibos blends.
I love the fragrance of this one, but the flavor doesn't come through as much as I'd like -- both the rooibos flavor (maybe because it's green rooibos? I haven't had as many of those, but maybe they are subtler than red rooibos?) and the lemon (maybe not enough). It's very delicate, so maybe it would make a nice meditation tea.
Very enjoyable decaf citrus tea. It had a nice level of citrus with no bitterness.
A lovely golden color in the glass with a pleasant citrus taste. Not overpowering or sharp, is a calming cup of tea. 212F at four minutes.
I really enjoyed this cup even if I didn't find all the ingredients came through. It reminded me quite a bit of the citrus mate Adagio has with just a change in the base as far as what I could taste. The lemon and orange really shine bright on the flavor while the aroma I could smell faint apricot, but that never hit the tongue for me. The green rooibos is not near as bold as red so that was nice in this tea. I would definitely drink this one again though purchasing I think this one would lose the choice battle with the citrus mate for me. 212° 5 min
It has all the taste of citrus without the bitter pithiness, and it's absolutely scrumptious with honey! It's not too sweet, hardly tart at all, but gets across all the flavors I hoped for.
I smiled from ear to ear at first sniff of my CT packet because making me eager to taste this blend. I quite enjoy citrus flavored teas and will even add a splash of lemon juice for enhancement.
CommuniTEA sample, 5 min @ 212 F. I got two infusions out of this blend, both very similar in flavor. Very citrus forward blend! It's not too sweet, not too tart, very light and enjoyable! I think the green rooibos does give it some herbal qualities, but it doesn't have the same slightly medicinal taste that people often find off putting about red rooibos. You barely even notice it, though, considering the citrus is the main flavor. I do think that the lemon comes across a little bit too strong in an artificial kind of way, giving it some of the cleaning solution aroma. I also didn't note any mango flavor, which was a bit disappointing, but I think it probably helped the other flavors (mostly the lemon, orange, and green rooibos) come together better. I did find myself drinking through each cup very quickly!
Delightfully refreshing with a touch of sweetener.
Bright and refreshing citrus tea for a cold rainy day and summer iced tea. Truly lovely cup.
A nice herbal version of a citron tea. A little too lemon-y for me though. I wish there was a little more orange.
Love this tea. It is very refreshing. I love rooibos so this is a nice addition to my more sweet rooibos collection. I am looking forward to having this in the summer as a iced version.
I really enjoy green roobios and the addition of the citrus is lovely
An excellent and unique choice for anyone who uses portable tea steepers. This is a well balanced and bright flavor that does not go bitter if oversteeped slightly.
Quite good I like it iced much better than warm. Awesome citrus taste! It’s a very refreshing tea. I need to find some caffeinated teas like this.
Wow, another winner. My second favorite of the green rooibos teas. I personally prefer the bonita - as does exactly one-half of my family. But the other half claims that this one is the tea of the Gods.
Very pleasant warm. Might be better as an iced tea. I wish there was a little bit more tartness, it's the only thing keeping me from re-ordering it.
Love love this blend. Soothing, smooth, and delicious!!
Bought this for my mom, to jazz up her evening herbal routine. This is her first introduction to green rooibos, and she is loving this one!
This tea is a burst of sunshine in a cup! The citrus flavors of lemon and orange pair perfectly with the light fruitiness of green rooibos. Whether I have it hot or iced, it’s always refreshing and uplifting. Plus, it's naturally caffeine-free, so I can enjoy it anytime. A must-try if you love citrusy, fruity teas!
A nice citrus flavor, but fails to compete with some of the other lemon teas available on this site.
I absolutely LOVE this Green Rooibus Citron. The scent upon opening the packet is a strong almost fruity citrus aroma. The flavor of this tea steeped per directions is pleasant, citrusy, and has a sense of smoothness without any bitterness. I cannot explain why I love this so. I am not usually a Rooibus gal. I did find it easy and equally flavorful on a second steeping. Great blend.
Tasted so lemony, it might as well have been trying to impersonate Lemonade! Good though. Definitely one I’d use to mix with something else, and not necessarily drink on its own
Strong citrus smell and taste. It's a little sweet on its own, it kind of reminds me of Froot Loops. The citrus flavor is all you really taste.
This is just OK. It has a nice fruity flavor but is not what I was looking for. I think this would taste good cold and during the day.
This one was good. I was hoping for a real high lemon flavor but it was mild. I would recommend it but I may or may not order again.
This one wasn't my favorite, I think it would maybe be more enjoyable iced rather than hot. My partner did enjoy it more than I did, so it might just be a matter of personal taste.
If you’re a fan of Citron Green but want a non caffeinated version, this hits the spot!
I like the simplicity of this one. The flavor is very straightforward and unified. It's citrusy green rooibos, and that's exactly what it's trying to be.
Since rooibos doesn't oversteep, I don't bother taking the tea bag out of my mug.
Interesting, fruity, citrusy tea. Not my cup of tea, per say, but my friends enjoy these fruitier varieties a lot.
Great hot tea for a little something different in the winter. Brew and drink hot, or brew, let cool, and chill for a great cold beverage. ( The flavor from a straight cold-brew was too light for me)
Pleasant tropical aroma was coming from my packet as I opened it. Once brewed, this tea has the smooth citrus notes of the orange and marigold, balanced with sweet flavor of mango and apricot that pair extremely well with the light bright flavor of the rooibos The fruity and the floral notes give a pleasant tropical aroma. It was a brisk and refreshing cup.
Nice citrus aroma from the packet. Couldn't smell any of the mango or apricot under the citrus. First steep, still a nice citrus fragrance. Smooth lemon/orange peel flavor. Second steep was a much lighter flavor. Definitely appropriately named as there was no indication of mango or apricot. As citrus is my go to tea flavor, I enjoyed this blend.
A different twist of rooibos tea. I like its light floral scent. It's not too overpowering and elegant.
It has a good citrus flavor. It smells good too. Enjoyed it
Enjoyable bright, citrus blend. Found it even better with a drop of Tupelo honey. I had it hot, but I’d like to try it iced, especially as the weather warms up. Seems to do well with long steeps. ~5 mins @ 212°
Yum! I really enjoyed this tea. It seems to have a slight honey taste.
It have a citrus flavors lemons and oranges and I like the smell.☕️🫖
If you love a refreshing tea. This is it. Citrus flavor and aroma are wonderful.light yellow color Delicious with and without sweetener, I chose a little honey.
I didn’t get much flavor from this tea. Perhaps it is my taste buds. Not one I would drink again.
citrusy and bright indeed! Very tasty with a little bite from the citrus in the back.
almost skipped this one because i mostly dislike rooibos and 'green' sounded bad. but I really like it! lemony but not acidic; the rooibos has a softer/honey flavor even without sweetener.
I like the green rooibos base but not really the citrus flavoring. It reminded me too much of lemon pledge when plain. It was alright once sweetener was added. I think I'd like it a lot more if I'd added fresh lemon juice.
This was a nice and light tea--the notes of citrus, especially lemon, were most prominent in the blend. I felt it was a little bit too light for me, though it may have been the way I steeped it. Overall, a decent cup of tea! Steeped for seven minutes at 100 degrees Celsius.
An ok blend. It smells like citronella. I taste lemon and lime. Notbad but nothing I would get again.
I really loved this delicious decaf blend! To me it's the perfect amount of orange and lemon together. I'm a little picky when it comes to too much lemon. I liked how this didn't venture into the sour taste of lemon but stayed more in the sweet zone of orange. Of course I added sweetner to mine which made it even more delish.
