Amazing tea!!! I've had vanilla tea that tasted chemically and this does not!!!
Rich vanilla and sweet, lightly fruity Rooibos herb. Warm sugar cookies, mellow flavor, smooth finish. Yum!

Amazing tea!!! I've had vanilla tea that tasted chemically and this does not!!!
I absolutely love this tea , it’s so delicious. I steep it and add a little sweet cream , yummy ! I had never had rooibos and I’m hooked .
The vanilla in this is just the right amount to not drown out the rooibos flavor. This is a great 'end of the day' tea.
A solid vanilla flavor. Strong aroma and moderate taste.
This was the tea that made me love rooibos teas. It's warm, comforting and sweet. It's my go-to when looking for something caffeine free that isn't too light tasting.
This is the first rooibos tea I have ever had. There is a strong vanilla scent that doesn't quite come through as overly strong in the taste, which actually works in it's favor. The rooibos is naturally sweet and has a nice dry finish. Given it's simple flavor I look forward to trying other rooibos teas.
Nosy and fragrant but soft and neutral enough to blend well with other teas.
Awesome tea, just the right balance for before bed.
Didn't taste like vanilla at all. Don't know what it tasted like but definitely wouldn't recommend.
Smelled like vanilla when i opened the package. Had a good flavor as a tea
I like the vanilla flavor, but nothing stands out with this one. It's a simple dessert tea, perfect for after dinner if you aren't fond of more punchy sweet flavors. This one is more ideal for blending. I like it paired with peppermint for a comfy bedtime tea, or blended with more astringent black teas to round out the flavors. My brother does like this one way more than I do, so of course it's all a matter of preference!
vanilla flavor is there but not enough after mixing together both the honey bush and the rooibos I got a pleasant cup of tea with a nice after flavor
I had high hopes for this tea, but it didn't live up to the expectation. I was hoping that the vanilla would outweigh the medicinal rooibos taste, but that wasn't the case.
I'm not a huge fan of roobios in general, but this makes for a decent after-dinner tea. (I mostly got it for my husband.) However, it has grown on me. In fact, I am beginning to think that my dislike of rooibos is actually a dislike of honeybush (I admit that I get them easily confused). UPDATE: I Added a star, as tea has grown on me as a go-to after-dinner tea. I frequently share it with my husband (who asked for me to get more for him).
On its own I thought the flavor of the rooibos overpowered the flavor of the vanilla. However, this tea became the first tea that I used to mix with another tea, and for that purpose it did exactly what I was hoping. I had a chai tea that I found just too strong for my tastes. I realized that I probably would not be inclined to finish either of these teas on their own so I decided to mix the two and see if the Rooibos Vanilla would “tame” my chai enough for my tastes. It did exactly that.
A fine tea. I like to always have a rooibos tea on hand, and this one is good. I don't think the vanilla does much for me either way -- I can definitely tell it's there, don't get me wrong, I just don't feel anything about it. I have a history of indifference to vanilla flavouring, though. It does smell nice.
A nice option to have, the vanilla just enhances the room is without really making a huge difference in taste, especially not an artificial taste.
It's a favorite of my husband and he drinks it almost daily
A favorite of mine. Great taste of vanilla with the rooibos flavor I always enjoy. A good tea for calming and relaxing.
Followed the directions and was nervous at first! It smelled a lot like cough syrup and was slightly panicking the relief (and shock) I felt when tasting the tea was amazing! It is a very mellow calm tea with lovely vanilla flavor. A perfect bedtime tea. I recommend drinking it after it has cooled down a bit as it tastes better that way in my opinion.
A real YES tea! Vanilla is always a rich welcome warmness of sugar cookie wonder tastiness! Rooibos is a great add to tea. Add some honey or whipped cream for added delight or blend with strawberries. Caffeine free or drink away anytime!
One of my favorite go-to's for my evening tea. It works for all four seasons as it is both warming and refreshing.
I had tried Rooibos from few other places and never really liked them. But I love this Rooibos tea. It makes a perfect cup with equal mix of Honeybush or Honeybush Vanilla tea.
I don't get any of the vanilla taste despite following the brewing instructions. This is just a bland rooibos variety/
Use this in a tea blend I make - lemongrass vanilla rooibos - and it is magical!
This tea makes the perfect cup to curl up with on a cold day.
This is my favorite tea. Dark red, sweet exotic aroma and taste with a hint of vanilla.
Just enough vanilla in this tea so that it is not overpowering. I was not disappointed. It is rivaled only by a custom vanilla rooibos I’ve purchased in NYC at a tea shop.
I got this one to share with my dad, he enjoys rooibos a lot, so it is so worth it. I like the beautiful color and mellow flavor.
This is a great tea for after dinner in the evening. It has great flavor which I really think any tea lover will enjoy. I like to add a little more than the recommended one teaspoon so that the flavor is a bit stronger.
Very nice rooibos, I would take even a bit more vanilla flavor but over all I really enjoy this.
A simple, delicious rooibos with a hint of vanilla.
Not as good as classic rooibos. Can t beat that taste.
This is hands down my favorite. works well iced and hot, and feels really substantial without having caffeine.
The rooibos overpowers the vanilla--not bad, but I prefer the stronger flavor of the vanilla black tea (decaf and regular).
Absolutely the best Roobios Vanilla Tea I’ve had.
The best Rooibos we’ve had, and perhaps the best tea we’ve had. The vanilla flavor complements the rooibos very well, and it has a totally different, better flavor than store bought rooibos. 100% recommended
I was excited to try this tea and it didn't disappoint!
Definitely a standard rooibos, but I didn't get too much vanilla flavor.
This tea is comfort in a cup! Nice relaxing, caffeine free vanilla warmth to wind down in the evening.
It was alright but i wouldn't buy a lot of it. It would be good on a flight of tea.
Nice vanilla flavor, love the simplicity it as well as adding to other teas for that nice vanilla
This is probably one of my top 3 flavors on the entire site. Definitely recommend. It is so decadent and relaxing to drink before bed.
This is very nice, very fine cut tea with a good vanilla flavor. It isn't a sweet sugar cookie flavor, but more dark vanilla bean. I like it iced with milk.
I'm still deciding if I like rooibos flavor...but this one is a nice try. It's a nice classic flavor for pairing with dessert. If you like rooibos I'm sure you will like this one!
The vanilla flavor is very light. Tastes more like a straight rooibos to me.
An after dinner favorite in our house! Nice vanilla flavor. It's also amazing with some of Adagio's whipped cinnamon honey mixed in.
Love this flavor. I am a big fan of rooibos based teas and the vanilla with it brings an added warmth that is glorious.
This has become my new favorite evening treat. It’s been cold in NY and this is comforting like a soft blanket.
This tea is fine on its own, but I mostly use it to blend with other teas. It’s a nice addition to the standard masala chai.
