★★★★☆
this tea is delicious and soothing, and is a really nice blend - the chamomile flavor is not too overpowering, which I appreciate as I do not love it as the main flavor in a tea.
One cup before bed makes for an ideal way to unwind and lull yourself into a deep slumber.

It’s super delicious! I will definitely be buying this one again!
I love the taste of this tea. Gets the job done without tasting too medicine-y (if you ve had some other herbal teas, you know). @adagioteas
Good one but not as good as the lavender lemon I found after this one. Always looking for good night time teas
Lovely flavor, I enjoy it any time of day but it's a top favorite for right before bed.
The valerian root I think is what makes this a little sour, but I don't mind that at all. And it really does help me get to sleep!
Not my favorite evening-time tea, but still pretty good. Not sure if it helps me sleep better, but I enjoy the routine!
This is as if Celestial Seasoning's Sleepytime grew up and became a successful and financially stable adult - Minty, floral, herbal, there's so many things going on, but it all works together perfectly, and is oh so relaxing. I prefer this tea unsweet right before bed. Sweet dreams!
I expect this tea to be just as effective as the slumbering sloth to be. At least i hope it is. @adagioteas
Really relaxed me and helped me wind down. Great flavor
This is an quite a good tea in my opinion and it does the trick of making me sleepy at night. I need to add sweetener to it for my liking which is a shame but the rock sugar does a great job at giving it the most pleasing taste.
Drinking this tea at night has helped me sleep. The heavier flavor of the Valerian Root took a bit to get used to, but it is not overpowering.
I am still trying to decide if this is going to be my go-to evening tea or not. It is a solid contender as it isn't overly sweet or powerful. If you like lavender and chamomile then this will be a hit for sure I think I was hoping for a little bit more of a pop of the spearmint but I am not finding it. But it is a nice tea to sip while doing some evening work or winding down for bed. It is also nicely flavored once cooled...if you are like me and sometimes forget it is on the bedside table.
A little strong on the flavor for me, but it is good! Not something I would want to have every day, but when I’m in the mood it hits the spot!
Smooth and calming. A nice way to end a day. I put a bit of honey in the tea. It helped settle my stomach.
A very relaxing tea to help you get a good night sleep. Soothing and calming, perfect bedtime tea after a long day.
This is a great tea to have right before bed, will definitely get more in the future.
Absolutely 5 stars! I have all I can do to finish my cup! It’s such a soothing drink after a busy day when you just want to wind down.
A nice, light blend of all the things to help you sleep. The only problem is... The flowers are so tiny they escape all but the tea bags, leaving you chewing your tea if you use any kind of diffuser. I bought this tea for my husband to try to help him sleep, but after that first cup he refuses to touch it unless we get it in tea bags. Otherwise, it has a nice mouth-feel, a relaxing aroma, and with a bit of honey makes for a good cuppa before bed.
This tastes great as a hot bedtime tea, and does exactly as promised. I have to get into bed soon after finishing my cup, or I'll fall asleep sitting up!
I am guessing that it’s the valerian that has an overwhelming and strange flavor. I tried steeping it for less time and it did not help. Not for me, but it did work to help me get sleepy! I’d say give a sample size a try and see how you like it. @adagioteas
AMAZING FLAVOR!!! Perfect relaxation tea...helps promote sleep
This worked to put me to sleep but it’s probably not something I would choose to drink. I will buy it again because it works.
It feels like this tea is trying to do too much and at bedtime I want something a little simpler.
Very fresh tea! Knocked me out in the first couple sips.
It works to put me to sleep. It tastes a bit weird, but it's tolerable if I can't sleep
I forgot that valerian root has such an acrid flavor, but even so, they've made it as pleasant as a valerian tea can be.
I agree with others on this one - too prominent a Chamomile taste, and also too much mint for my liking also. Tried becuse I already use Valerian to help me sleep, but alas, i didn't like it.
While it did relax me and helped me get to sleep quickly, the taste was too medicinal for me. Definitely tastes better hot than cold. I’ll stick with favorites Slumbering Sloth or Long Rest for bedtime tea!
I do like the taste, however, I tend to like more of the chocolates and sweeter teas.
Great stuff. Reminds me of the foxtrot or cha Cha.
If you like chamomile tea then you’ll love this. It’s great for relaxing before bed and it has great flavor
This is my new go-to tea to finish my day. Relaxing and delicious, this is the perfect companion for my bedtime ritual
This is my go to 'sleepy tea' and mixed perfectly with some chamomile
I love this tea! Its very nice and calming, and perfect for winding down at night.
I did not like the aroma of this when first opened. But after steeping and I put a small amount of oat milk in my mind was changed. It is delicious and I sleep so well. I would definitely recommend for a great nights sleep.
if you need to sleep, this will put you DOWN. it is also delicious.!
Chamomile, spearmint, and lavender loose leaf tea has always been such a good mix for sleep.
Love, love, love this tea! I’ll admit it doesn’t smell very good but the taste, especially when paired with honey, is wonderful. It is definitely a relaxing, sleepy time tea. I always sleep great after having it.
A good flavor and it was very relaxing. I mostly got it for my insomniac husband and it works well. Yay!
My husbands makes a cup every night before bed!! Highly recommend!
This calms me right down for a great rest! Sometimes settling down at night is so hard. Half hour before laying down give it a try!
Tasty and very relaxing. I enjoy drinking this tea about an hour before bedtime. It helps me unwind and settle in for the night.
40 Winks is an excellent way to calm down at the end of the day. It’s a very pleasant blend that encourages relaxation.
This is my favorite bedtime tea to date! I've tried many others found in grocery stores, and my sleep became more reliably peaceful once I started having a cup of 40 winks before bed! I love it, and I bring some on every vacation!
My favorite night time tea. The perfect blend of lavender and chamomile and mint without being overpowering. My only complaint is that I always fall asleep before I finish my cup!
This was surprisingly light. Loved the flavor. The spearmint sort of overpowered it just a little. But all in all nice flavor
Another tea for my daughter. She like the taste and she asked me to get it for her because she needed just a little help to go to sleep. She started with a sample and now she wants to drink this tea before bed every day!
Such a peaceful night sleep. I drink this tea every night and have such refreshing sleep. I like the taste, its a pleasant flavour. Its now one of my regular purchases
First sleeping tea that actually made me tired.glad I got a sample.plan on buying more.
