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

This might be my new favorite tea. Straight out of the bag it has that great earthy rooibos smell with a strong scent of lemon underneath. Brewing enhances the lemon even more, and the vanilla warms it and really rounds out the flavor. It's perfect just the way it is, no sugar or cream added (although I think a little honey might take it to a whole other level. maybe I'll try that next time). I'll definitely be buying this one again.
One of the best rooibos teas I've tried. Often, the rooibos' own flavor overwhelms the other flavor it's supposed to be, but in this case, the lemon is strong enough to come across. I find lemon grass tea to be a bit 'weedy' - rooibos lemon cloud is an excellent lemon tea, neither grassy nor too tart. Well worth a try if you're exploring rooibos, and it's one I'll order again.
This works well as an iced tea. I love the mix of lemon and vanilla, makes it seem like a dessert.
I still can't exactly say what I think about this one. I definitely didn't love it by itself, but a very tiny pinch of jasmine and chocolate or caramel (rooibos/honeybush) makes it a nice cup. Definitely wouldn't buy it again for itself, though.
Love this tea iced and sweet. Very mellow hints of vanilla-lemon.
In the package this tea smells faintly of lemon meringue, put in the cup it is a little bit lighter than that. It smells amazing, exactly like you'd think lemon and vanilla to smell, but it took over 8 minutes of steeping to get the tea to a place where the flavour was strong enough. That being said, the flavour itself is absolutely lovely, both lemony and creamy. With a bit of sugar it is just like a slice of my favourite pie!
I love lemon, and this tea delivered it with a great cream overlay to the flavor. Reminiscent of lemon meringue pie for me. Needed some sugar to get the flavor good and sweet, but I've got a serious sweet tooth too. First ever loose tea, and it was a great start!
I loved the lemon roobios. It was really smooth and had a really great taste!
A great departure from my usual gongfu-style brewing. Tastes just like lemon cookies and satisfies my sweet tooth.
Nice full bodied creamy lemon-vanilla flavor. The rooibos takes a back seat to the citrus.
This tea blew me away! It is somehow light and creamy at the same time. I just revised my 'pound cake' blend with this as the foundation.
This tea is so comforting. I love the slightly tangy finish, and the subtlety of the vanilla. Really nice blend.
I don't know why people are complaining that this tea isn't lemony enough. The combination of the lemon and the rooibos makes such a tart, citrusy flavor that I have to be very careful how long I brew it--5 minutes (my usual steeping time for rooibos blends)yields a brew so strong and citrusy that it becomes slightly medicinal. Mellowing it out with milk makes a lovely, creamy treat. Great caffeine-free delight.
Good lemon flavor, Didn't have a ton of taste but still a good tea. Good for night time
I'm trying to steer away from drinking too much caffeine in the evenings, but the typical selection of 'nighttime' herbal brews just doesn't do it for me. I was first seduced by the description of this tea, again when I smelled it in the bag (delightful) and yet again after I brewed my first cup. Oh my! With honey and a splash of milk, this is the perfect evening cuppa. I love the combination of lemon and the cream... it's like my favorite lemon pastry cookies in a cup. A new favorite, for sure!
Mixed this with an Earl Grey/mint blend and it was absolutely wonderful! Subtle and smooth and a perfect blend of rooibos and lemon.
It smells very creamy, almost like lemon cookies, thanks to the vanilla. The lemon taste is a bit more subtle and fluffy, but it's nice with a bit of sugar. Great tea to mix with other fruit or citrus-based blends. Might be a little bit better iced than hot.
This is my first time trying rooibos tea- and wow! In the bag the tea smells fantastic, lemony and sweet. The tea comes out as a beautiful orange when it's brewed. It is like others have said, a light 'fluffy' tea. It's sweet enough on it's own that it doesn't need sugar, and while I did add a little cream, I don't think it needs it. I love this and will definitely consider buying again.
I was excited to get this tea as I had heard such things about it and they were right it is wonderful!!
Oh my god, I did not expect this tea to be so addictive
Oh my goodness, this tea is delicious. It tastes like dessert.
Very good. I decided I liked it much better with cream :-)
Very sweet, lemony with an almost vanilla or cream flavor make this taste almost like a lemon square. Not at all like medicine. even in smell. Very fragrant and bright.
Oh my god oh my god this tea, this tea, oh my god. This is my new favourite tea. It smells almost a little grassy when you brew it, but the taste is amazing. Some sugar and milk turn this into a freaking lemon drop. This is exactly what I was hoping it would taste like. I'm so getting the big bag next time.
Smells great! Very easy to pick out both the lemon and vanilla flavors in the bag and when steeped. My only problem with this is that the lemon reminds me a bit too much of a household cleaner... Hopefully blending will tone that down because I really want to like this one.
wesome! Kinda tasted a bit like lemon meringue pie. Watch how much sugar you put in with this one.
This tea smells lemony. The creamy vanilla and citrus
favor just adds to lemon taste.
This is very lemony and I enjoy mixing it with a bit of raspberry patch. It's nice in the afternoon.
It's very good, especially if you have a cold. It has a very mild taste that's easy on sore throats. I would've liked a bit more lemon flavor, personally, but that's easily amended with a bit of lemon juice.
This tea is a decent cup! As a lover of lemon and sweets, I expected this to be a tea that would be right up my alley. Unfortunately, it turned out to be far too sweet for me (a feat!) and the lemon flavor was lacking greatly. It's a very pretty tea and I know it's well loved by many, but I will not be re-purchasing.
I probably need to try this again in the morning, but I think I discovered that lemon grass isn't really for me. Which is a shame, because I really wanted to love this tea. :(
What I like about this certain rooibos blend is that it has a subtle sweetness to it that compliments the lemon flavor quite nicely. This'll probably be good iced :3 (It also reminds me of TeaGschwendner's Rooibush Lemon.)
This tea was alright, but I don't think it was a wise choice as my introduction to rooiboos teas. The combination of lemon and vanilla was nice, but I found everything together to be kind of overwhelming and bittersweet. Maybe i'll try blending it another way or adding honey to it next time.
You can never go wrong with lemon. Nice served hot or cold.
Very smooth. I was very surprised that it would have so much flavor without a strong after taste.
The lemon flavor really comes through once it's steeped, though it was hard to detect in the bag. Very light and sweet, great for dessert!
I really loved this tea- very light and refreshing, and it tastes great as iced tea!
Nice hints of citrus make a great addition to already tasty tea.
Eh, it's alright. A little medicinal tasting, but not bad. I think this would be better iced than hot.
Wasn't expected to love this as much as I did. I was brewing it and was instantly in love with the honey-like scent. It tastes very similar to honeysuckle to me. It's very good iced as well.
Very interesting tea-- the vanilla and lemon flavors are very mild behind the rooibos. I suppose I expected it to be a little stronger, but its a nice mouth feel nonetheless and it smells great. Not my absolute favorite, but worth a shot.
If you love lemon, this is fantastic. You won't need to add any sweeteners either.
Even though I'm not a huge fan of rooibos, this was quite a nice tea! It's also nice to have when I'm feeling like I'm catching a cold or in the evening when I'm winding down for the day. :)
This is pleasant enough if you like rooibos as I do, but the lemon is quite mild and timid, barely there and sweet-soft rather than citrus-y. I'll certainly drink it, but it makes for a forgettable cup of tea. When I want a fruit blend with rooibos, I'll stick to rooibos mango, and when I want something sweeter, I'll opt for rooibos vanilla.
This is the first roobios tea I ever tried, and it was definitely worth it. It was smooth and light and perfect with a little sugar.
I was a little wary of trying rooibos in general because in the past I'd only had some subpar teabag version that tasted a bit like cough syrup. Fortunately I was relieved when it tasted much better than that. Not sure how to describe the flavor of the rooibos, it's quite unique but the lemon and creme to it makes it like a tasty dessert. It's very comforting, sweet and smooth. I like adding chamomile to it and drinking it before bed.
Super sweet. I used about half the recomended amount and found that it was much more appealing. Otherwise it was too sweet for my taste. 2/5
Nice, but I wish there had been more lemon to it. It's good for after dinner drinking with honey.
A lovely dessert tea. Being caffeine free is a bonus!
Nice, relaxing rooibos tea with subtle lemon flavor. I love this even more when it cools down.
