A combination of bright, tangy citrus notes with creamy vanilla and a hint of lemongrass producing a soft, fluffy, lemon cream taste.

I don't know if it's the lemongrass, rooibos, or what but I absolutely can't stand this tea. There's a weird scent that puts me off from the beginning and the taste is just... unpalatable. I can see that many others really enjoy this tea so to each their own I suppose!
GUYS I HATE THIS TEA PLEASE STOP GIFTING IT.
Quite fond of this tea. The rooibos flavor is strong but not over powering and it finishes with the almost lemon sorbet flavor.
Lemon tea is amazing with a little bit of honey during the cooler months or when sick. Tastes great too!
I absolutely love this tea! I had never had any flavored rooibos before but I have to say this is one of the best teas that i have tasted. Perfect cobination of lemon and vanilla! Definitely buying a bigger order soon!
This tea tastes a little like lemon meringue pie. And that's never a bad thing. It's not a tart lemony taste, a little more sweet, and accompanied by a lingering creaminess like whipped cream or meringue.
Bought this for my mom, and it ended up being one of my favourite rooibos teas (she loves it too)! I just wish there was a bit more lemon...
This makes a great iced tea! very creamy and citrusy.
A summery lemon -- not as sweet as it smells, but refreshing. Probably very good iced on a summer day, but you will need to add a large amount of sugar to make it as pleasant as it could be.
My favourite caffeine free alternative. I like strong teas. Hearty rooibos can grow bitter if left to stand too long...but when mellowed with citrus notes, it's delightful at any brewing strength.
I love the faint lemon taste. It wasn't bitter or sour at all, just nice and light and yummy. This is my first time dabbling with rooibos tea, and i was not disappointed.
Not bad, but not as smooth as I was hoping for. Not terribly sweet, so if you don't want sweet it might be perfect, but I wanted more of a dessert tea.
I was a little nervous about this one since the vanilla rooibos I've tried was a bit too strong for me with no rooibos flavor at all, but this one is really fantastic. The lemon flavor is really bright, and the vanilla subtle enough that you can still taste the rooibos. Really just like drinking a lemon cream pie. A great dessert tea.
This was okay. The lemony smell is great, but the rooibos almost completely takes over the lemon, or maybe that is the lemongrass that makes it taste vaguely medicinal. I needed to sweeten this tea to make it palatable. This is stronger than most lemon teas, and does take well to milk and sugar. Also, too many the rooibos leaves escaped my tea ball and floated in the teacup.
A gifted sample and I'm so grateful! Sweet and refreshing.
I bought this as a gift for a friend. She says: Smooth, warm and with an unusually creamy flavor to match its citrus. The lemongrass is a little strong, but overall this blends the strong rooibos and matches it in its robust flavor.
I love the strong, bold taste of rooibos, but this didn't have it. I almost doubled the suggested amount of tea when brewing and it still seemed weak. Not bad tasting, just not the bold rooibos flavor I was looking for. I also love lemon flavored tea, but for me, the vanilla mixed with the lemon was too much going on for one cup. I'll stick to plain rooibos.
This was a very well-balanced tea, but not to my personal taste. To me, it was very sweet, like a lemon sugar cookie. Someone who likes sweeter teas will really enjoy this one.
I made a blend with this tea and enjoyed it so much, I had to purchase a bag by itself.
Not really a fan of citrus teas as an all the time drink, but they're pretty good with honey when you get a cold and this is the best I've tried. Not really my thing but it was sweet and certainly lemony.
Good. Nice flavor. Makes you feel like crawling up on the couch for a nap.
Amazing tea! A perfect rooibos and lemon, I could drink it with anything. I prefer it without anything added but my husband said it is wonderful with a bit of honey. Very delicious, I highly recommend if you're looking for a new herbal blend.
Lemon cloud, indeed! This tea is well-named. Reminds me of lemon meringue pie! (Though not at all cloyingly sweet). The finish has a certain airiness, like meringue fluff!
I'm not typically a rooibos fan, but I've found I really enjoy it with a citrusy twist. The lemon seems to complement the natural rooibos without being overpowering, and the light hint of sweetness just helps the flavors blend together. This makes a nice afternoon tea, when I don't want a lot of caffeine.
I won't lie, my first impression from smelling it, I was pretty sure I wasn't going to like it at ALL. It smelled like the lemon-honey menthol cough drops or the hot lemon thera-flu stuff. It was terrifying. But I tried it anyway, and am very glad I did - it's lemony vanilla goodness, and a very soothing tea. I'd rate it great, but even brewed the smell is off-putting juuuuust enough that you have to actually remind yourself it's good when you go to take a sip, which is a bit of a thing for me. But taste-wise, it's great.
I think this is the first rooibos tea that I've tried. Fairly pleasant. Much softer lemon flavor than I was expecting, probably because of the vanilla. The vanilla added a bit of an odd mouthfeel and tasted a tad artificial, but I tried it iced and with some sugar, and it was pretty good. Nothing wrong with it, but I'm not sure I'd buy again.
A rooibos with a pretty mild citrus flavor, courtesy of the vanilla. Alright, but not fantastic.
I like this and finished the sample pretty fast. I did find myself adding lemon to get the stronger flavor I was looking for.
The first time I had this I thought it smelled a little bit like a cough drop, but at the time I didn't mind in the least because I had a cold and it smelled like relief. I waited until I wasn't all stuffed up to taste it again before making this review however and am glad to say that the cough-drop sensation does not follow through in the taste of the tea itself. It's smooth, lemony, without any tartness or over-sweetness. Wonderful.
Kind of reminds me of lemon meringue pie just with out the extra calories.
A light, lemon tea. I enjoyed it, but I think it will taste better blended with another tea.
well if you like cough syrup then check out this tea, if you dont then try it man
This rooibos was a bit too medicinal for my taste, it reminded me of a lemon flavored cough drop. It was still sweet and not too unpleasant however, very drinkable. Just not my favorite.
Quite a pleasant tea - the lemon is present, but not at all overbearing.
Rooinos vanilla lemony goodness = perfect! I'm a huge fan of rooibos and lemon grass so I may be a bit bias but as far as I'm concerned this is a 10/10 blend :D
I like this tea hot mixed with a bit of chamomile tea.
This one was a huge hit with the kids. It's very lemony and sweet, no sugar needed.
nice refreshing tea. would probably be good iced too.
I like drinking this cold. It also smells awesome from the bag!
This is a very nice blend in the evenings. I was worried that the lemon would taste artificial but it tastes very natural. Roobios and lemon work wonderfully teogether
pretty tastey!!! can imagine it would taste good as an iced as well
Just the right amount of lemon! Not bad, but I prefer some of the other rooibos teas here.
I got this gifted to me and did not expect to like it. It has strong roobios flavor and sweetness with a smidgen of lemon in the works. The lemon is not bitter or artificial tasting. The two flavors go well together. 'Cloud' is accurate - it's light and sweet with a silver lining of lemon.
This tea is pretty good on its own, but with added lemon slices and sugar, it is perfection. Excellent hot or iced.
I didn't expect it to be this amazing but I am wowed. This is a dessert lemon tea and not a tart lemon. It was something like eating a lemon cream pie, sweet and creamy with accents of lemon tang. I can see why 'cloud' is in the name. I wish the teabags weren't sold out so I could give some as gifts!
It has a nice lemon scent. The flavour is nicely creamy and tart. Good with the rooibos earl grey.
I am lovin' this rooibos. It is absolutely delicious. Difficult to drink just one cup, so I'll go with two!
Really not a fan of this one. The tea is too fine, and even my teeny tiny strainer can't get all the leaves out. I fished out as much as I could with a spoon, but still didn't have much luck. I've never had that problem before, even with other rooibos. Odd. The flavor is strange - it seems very medicinal to my taste, and I get the feeling that it reminds me of a sweet I don't care for. Some milk and Splenda helped the flavor, but it's still somewhat sickening in a way that's hard to describe. Not sure if I got a bad batch or this tea just isn't for me.
Sweet and refreshing. Lemon and vanilla is now my new favorite combo!
Still has that distinct (almost medicinal for my tastes) rooibos flavor, but this one is cut with delicious lemon and a little bit of creaminess. Delicious with a bit of sugar and a splash of milk, but I really just bought a sample so I could test out this flavor before buying any of the fandom blends with it.
A lovely combination of lemon and rooibos. I made this for my mom who hates tea, hoping she might like it. Well, she didn't, but that was okay, because I got to drink it all!
