It helps with relaxing before bed. I sleep like a baby
This made me feel relaxed before bed! It’s definitely a great night time blend.
The most perfect sweet dream in a cup- the blend of herbs is so relaxing and valerian root packs a sleepy punch with honeybush for a natural, earthy sweetness. I add a little bit of clover honey and my eyelids are drooping in no time.
This is a tea that I always have on hand. Not only does it taste delicious, but it totally KNOCKS ME OUT. Seriously. I have the best sleep of my life when I drink this stuff and wake feeling amazing. I tend to keep the tea steeping the whole time, making it very strong. Highly recommend.
This is my absolute favorite night time tea! The flavor is amazing and it definitely helps catch those zzzzz’s!
Update 2022: The aromas of chamomile, spearmint, and lavender are so wonderful. And, I don't even need to mention the flavor! The blend of those three creates a lovely drink. This is a tea to enjoy. You need to try this one. It is a great way to end a busy or stressful day.

This was our order of relaxing teas for evening. Teas with no caffeine and helps one to find that moment to slow down, read, be mindful, and enjoy life. This was not a disappointment. The chamomile, spearmint, and lavender aromas are wonderful. No need for sweetener in this flavorful tea.
A superb sleepy time tea! Feel the waves of dreamtime wash over you! Happy SlumberzZZzzz!
I enjoy this tea right before bed. Very relaxing, and the flavor is not too floral, thankfully.
I really like the flavor of this calming tea. And, I slept really well after drinking it before bed. Will definitely be ordering more!
Really enjoying this at night. Better flavor and costs less than some other nighttime teabags I was using before.
I love it, but my husband can’t tolerate the smell so I have to have it when he is not around. Lol!
This tea is no joke! I wouldn't say I have trouble sleeping, per se, but sometimes I just want to make sure I'm going to fall asleep and stay asleep. This does the trick every time.
Valerian is a little funky in flavor (I don't find it unpleasant myself) but it is balanced nicely by the spearmint. A really enjoyable cup of tea a little before bedtime.
I love that this tea actually helps me sleep. I’m sure this is awful for tea drinkers but I like it with honey and cream. :)
Love this tea before bedtime, the mint in it is smooth without being overwhelming.
Awesome end of the day tea. Be prepared to sleep well. A must have to keep on hand
I really like this one. It has a very herbaceous flavor — which I love. I usually find valerian-based teas to be kinda stinky. But this one is perfectly balanced and not stinky at all. Very nice before bed.
This is my go-to decaf when I need a wind-down cup or the kiddos need something warm and soothing. It's a delicious chamomile tea that reminds me of another brand's sleepytime tea, but 10x better.
Very smooth nice flavored relaxing tea perfect after a long day to relax.
My favorite nighttime tea. Bold flavor and very extremely soothing.
The tea has a pleasant sweet minty smell with notes of lemon. The liquor is dark brown with the sweet mint smell still coming through as well as notes of licorice. The cup is earthy, sweet, and refreshing. All the herbs in this tea come together in a heartwarming, yet refreshing blend that really is perfect just before bed.
Very pleasant. I am hard to fall asleep and stay asleep. This does help out greatly.
This a great nighttime tea. I wasn’t immediately sold on 40 winks since I’m not typically drawn to floral tasting teas. The valerian root and spearmint are prominent up front. In this mix, the chamomile and lemon flavor comes forward as you sip. I didn’t get any cherry flavor. This is quite a calming tea. Perfect before bed. As previously stated, I wasn’t sure if I’d like this one when I originally opened the package, but by the end of the first cup, I was sold. Fantastic tea that has made its way into my regular nighttime rotation. I add a bit of honey to really round out the mix and bring all the flavors forward, but it is t needed.
Absolutely delicious. It tasted like a hot shower and warm blankets. Or a hug. The lavender wasn’t overpowering, but quite lovely indeed. It is the best after taste a tea could ask for. I don’t even sweeten this drink, it’s that delectable.
Got it to help with sleep. It has a pepper taste though.
I love the spearmint flavor in this tea. It is smooth and delicious. I like to add a tsp of honey.
Initially I liked 40 winks because it’s so different and there is so much flavor. Now I think it’s a little too much for me. I would rank foxtrot higher as the flavors seems to blend better together. Just my personal opinion. I think lots of people would like 40 winks.
This tea is tastes great and very relaxing. I prefer it over the T2 sleepy tea.
Love how this tea relaxes me and prepares me for bed.
Perfect amount of camomile. I enjoyed the spearmint and lavender as well. Hoping for a good night sleep tonight.
Very well-balanced herbal tea that helps you fall asleep faster. None of the herbs is too dominant and I can only recommend it if you want a good night's sleep.
It wasn’t horrible. But it really wasn’t that good. I really wanted to like it and I can’t point to why my wife and I don’t.
This tea is one of my new bed time favorites! It is so relaxing and helps me fall asleep.
Gave this tea as a gift to a friend who always has trouble sleeping. She raves about how it gas really helped her relax and fall asleep.
Very pleasant evening tea. Didn’t find it had a dramatic effect on my sleep as some others have noted. But a nice evening tea just the same
The taste is ok, however, it did not provide me with a restful sleep.
One or two cups of this a night and it relaxes the heck out of me. It's routine at this point! I hate to run low on it -- I did once, and that was a mistake. Had to create my own with valerian root! This is such a lovely blend that I think it will always been in my armory.
The smell was a little off putting for me, but the flavor was pleasant.
amazing tea. I love drinking it before bed. It helps me relax @adagioteas
It’s a lot of different flavors coming together but it’s somehow not too overwhelming. It is quite calming.
Wonderful tea, but I am not a Chamomile tea fan, so not for me, but my husband loves it!
I had 2 nights of poor sleep.
Last night I had ny 1st cup of 40 winks...and I was out like a light.
Had a good night sleep. :)
So tasty and definitely does the trick of a solid night sleep for me. I got the bags to try out of convenience for a quick nighttime tea.
Soothing and relaxing night time tea. It really hits the spot when you’re trying to unwind in the evening. I mix a pinch of Sandman in with my 40 winks, it’s a great combo!! I like my teas a little stronger, so I tend to them them steep for a long time.
Amazing...it actually works relaxing me before I fall asleep. I stay asleep for the entire night
This was alright in flavor but very good for bedtime @adagioteas
I love the flavor of this tea and it has become my nighttime tea routine.
I like this tea it helps me sleep. I make it strong I set my kettle to 212'° and let it sit for a minimum of 15 minutes I feel it is to weak with a shorter steep. It goes well with honey. This is one of my favorites give it a try.
Not bad, slightly weird aftertaste. I’m not sure if it helped me sleep but was relaxing
YES YEs YES to this amazing sleepy time tea! One glass and its night night time!
my wife loves this tea helps her go to bed with no issues just the right blend
