★★★☆☆
Not as impressed with this tea as I had hoped. I prefer more vanilla flavour, the vanilla flavour is too subtle for me.
Rich vanilla and sweet, lightly fruity Rooibos herb. Warm sugar cookies, mellow flavor, smooth finish. Yum!

My wife love this tea, cant ever go wrong with rooibos or vanilla. Combined is even better!
Delicious tea! I added a bit of wildflower honey from a local bee farmer, and the taste is so smooth. I can't decide whether I enjoy rooibos vanilla or honeybush vanilla more.
One of my favorites! Anything vanilla is good especially in a tea! My teenage daughter loves this blend!
love it. tried a few rooibos and like this one the best.
Really enjoyed this tea, the vanilla was a nice hint in the mix of flavor.
Not strong enough for me, but flavor is there. Roobios isn't the best for me.
Amazing Tea really good combination of flavors. Really good for making iced tea out of.
very strong imitation vanilla flavor, but overall very good.
This is a nice tea to have before bed as it warming and relaxing. I like to add a bit of honey to blend nicely with the vanilla.
One of my all time favorites. Great with sweetened condensed milk.
This is a really mellow tasting tea. I find that I do not need as much sweetener as I am used to. I like it enough to add it to my 'line up' at home and at work. I have a row of the little sample tins across the top shelf in my cube - makes for good conversation, too
Woody, sweet, with the smoothness of vanilla right towards the end of one's mouth where one would expect the usual rooibos nibble (not a bite) to happen. It's not as sweet as the regular rooibos or the honeybush tea. It's not a tongue-curler. it's still somewhat of a dry drink. The vanilla flavor doesn't seem like the same vanilla in the vanilla green, but if it is, it's behaving differently due to the different tea base.
I do want to like this, and I probably do like this more than a regular rooibos. Thing is- I'm worrying if my taste is changing away from rooibos, and that worries me. This tea just doesn't strike me as fantastic. it hits my 'meh' button- but because it's vanilla I may well like it more if I did a blind taste test with other rooibos teas.
One of my personal favorites! It's very smooth and just the right amount of sweet.
I've liked rooibos tea for years, but when I tried the rooibos with vanilla it was like magic! This is the perfect evening cup of tea, for after you've brushed your teeth and gotten ready for bed. No need to add sugar - it has a subtly sweet flavor on it's own. It's refreshing and delicious and also not caffeinated.
Love how much vanilla comes out in this!! I love vanilla everything and this is no exception! Will order again!
I just made my first cup of this tea and I have to agree with another reviewer who said that it has more of a vanilla scent than flavor. If you are a fan of straight rooibos then you'll probably love it.
Perfect evening tea! The delicious vanilla and the caffeine-free rooibos are a perfect combo!
I got this as a free sample and it is subtle and sweet, but not what I would usually order. It is definitely up to Adagios excellent standards though.
I relax with rooibos, fresh ginger and vanilla tea each night. Adagio's rooibos is the best of the best I've had. Thought I'd try the vanilla version, and it's a little 'chemical' tasting for me... I am getting used to it, but would order the plain rooibos again next time.
An excellent base for homemade decaf chai: simmer spices in water, then turn off heat, add milk and rooibos vanilla, and steep for a few minutes.
Found this when we were looking for a less expensive alternative. After experimenting with a few others, we keep ordering this. It's not the best -- but it is the best buy. We go through a pound in 2 months time.
Needs to be mixed with something,we use Orange flavor
One of my favorites from the rooibos sampler. A good option for when I want black tea, but I don't want caffeine.
Its the cleanest rooibos I ever had. Intense and smooth flavor at the same time.
As far as I'm concerned, this is the best 'mixer' tea in the world. I always keep a large tin of vanilla rooibos on hand for the same reason I keep vanilla extract in my baking cabinet: it's such a good, versatile flavor. The natural sweetness of rooibos and vanilla are equally good at complementing a spicy chai or a fruity tisane... and since rooibos doesn't get bitter or oversteep, you don't have to worry about brewing times.
This vanilla tea was just 'ok' for me. You get a sense of the vanilla, but for some reason was not a flavorful for me as the vanilla oolong.
Purchased as a gift for my mother - rooibos vanilla is her favorite tea and she loves Adagio's version of it.
I have been cold brewing this every day (bought the 16oz package). Mild vanilla flavor and I look forward to drinking it after dinner. Would buy again.
Rich vanilla flavor and scent pairs well with heartiness of the rooibos. If you love flavored rooibos, this should be one of your faves!
The rooibos teas are much different from my usual black teas. I actually quite enjoyed this cup, a gentle sweetness, and a different flavor I can't quite place but have recognized with each one, simply that 'honeybush' taste. While not my favorite tea, I definitely did enjoy this one.
I've been trying many kinds (and brands) of herbal teas only to be disappointed. This is delicious!! Especially with a dash of coconut milk. YUM. My search is over.
I find the undertone to be a bit bitter and lacking smoothness
My daughter loves this flavor. She adds a touch of cream and sugar and drinks it warm.
Amazing! The vanilla flavour balances out with the woody rooibos taste perfectly. I've been drinking rooibos vanilla for years and it is my absolute favourite flavour when it comes to red teas.
This is my favorite nighttime tea with a little sweetener and cream. I love the way the mild vanilla flavor blends with the rooibos. It would be nice if the vanilla was a little stronger, but I still love it as is.
Nice, comfy, anytime tea if you're worried about too much caffiene before bedtime.
Without honey, it's basically like a bitter wheat vanilla. However, it improves a great deal with some honey and letting it 'settle' a bit. I liked it! Nice and red too.
Since this was my first rooibos tea, I'm not sure if it was the rooibos or the vanilla that I disliked.
The rooibos vanilla is my getting ready for bed tea. I love to drink day (all day long, for that matter), but have to stay away from caffeinated teas. But I have also found that certain rooibos teas have substances, (spices) added that keep me from falling asleep. This one here is perfect!
A wonderful vanilla tea! It's great alone, or add with one of your other favorites to flavor with vanilla.
I really love Rooibos and the vanilla is an extra bonus.
excellent flavor, hints of caramel in the strong vanilla overtones
This tea is great!! Has a very smooth and soothing vanilla taste. I've had it hot, iced, and used it in lattes.
Really nice vanilla flavor compliments the rooibos. We like to mix this with the honeybush hazelnut to make a wonderful combination.
This is pretty good. I'm a huge fan of both rooibos and vanilla, so to have the two together was an idea I jumped at, and I like the result. It's also nice to add to decaf earl grey when I feel like a decaf treat.
Perfect when I'm ready for bed or just to relax in the middle of the day. Fabulous aroma and taste is superb. Very smooth and a hint of sweet.
This is my daughter's favorite tea. She drinks it w/ silk creamer and a touch of honey. I like mine straight.
Smooth, gentle vanilla flavor. Nice cup of tea when caffeine free and a slightly different taste is desired.
I have always loved vanilla rooibos and this does not disappoint. I will be back to buy this one again.
