I wanted to like this one more than I did. Still a great before bed tea
Not bad. Not my favorite but it will do. I will finish my order.
This is very good, although nothing groundbreaking where 'sleepy time' teas are concerned.
This is a very delicious and comforting tea. The chamomile isn't overpowering at all.
This is my new favorite. A cup oh 40 winks and a good book before bed are
The perfect combination,
This one has become my favorite pre-bedtime tea. I highly recommend!
A new favorite herbal tea in my home! The spearmint and chamomile work wonderfully together and well.. ifykyk. I love valerian root and the woody flavor fit right at home with the sweetness from the honeybush. Really fantastic blend!
Definitely helps with sleep, however the valerian root is a bit strong and gives it a medicinal flavor.
Great taste and very relaxing. The smell is a light perfume, but the finish is relaxing.
I was hesitant to try this, but so glad I did. Soothing end of the day and I really have slept better. I ordered for my nurse daughter and nurse son-in-law who are in the big middle of trying to save lives. I hope it helps them sleep.
**please do not go by my minutes and temp. I don't know them**
After reading other reviews I was expecting something with no valerian root taste. I was wrong. It was not over powering so I was still able to drink it but it definitely clung around. The rest of the floral taste went well to trying to mask it.
It did knock me right on my a** and put me to sleep. So still a 4 out of 5
Light on flavor, but pleasant and does aid in getting sleepy! Usually when I drink teas with valerian root, it smells like feet which is hard to stomach, this one does not smell like that at all. On the nose I primarily get the same as in the flavor: peppermint and chamomile.
It’s very relaxing and a pleasing aroma! I loved the flavors.
Great flavor and aroma! The colors are also great when you get the loose leaf.
I don't know that I'd say it helps with sleep, but it tastes good and is calming.
For many teas I have had with valarian, the valarian takes over the blend and the other notes are hiding in the background. 40 Winks the valarian is balanced with the other ingredients, I actually look forward to my evening tea.
This is a good smelling tea and it actually really made me want to go to sleep.
I don t even know how to describe this tea except for one word: savory. I will definitely buy more when it comes back in stock
I have a few different sleep blends with and without valerian root, and this is up there. I found Pukka's version make me much more sleepy, but this was a close second and had much better flavor. It's not only a non-caffeinated tea, but goes a bit beyond that to actually ensure a bit of drowsiness.
I didn’t find myself relaxed, but I did find myself wondering why my tea smelt like my husband’s feet when he gets off of work.
I love drinking tea before bed, I love the calming effect
I was not sure of this at first because of the pungent smell when I opened it up. Not sure what I was getting into so I let it steep and took a sip...this is now my new bedtime tea. Definitely getting the chamomile and lavender. Excellent tea to relax in the evening before bed.
Tastes okay, didn't really help me sleep at all though. I much prefer the 'slumbering sloth' blend I impulse bought at 3:30am last week. 🙃
Interesting taste, can really taste the peeper corn in the after taste
Whenever I'm feeling anxious right before bed or if I can't fall asleep, this is what I turn to. It's so soothing and calming. Such an interesting flavor combination too.
I'm not a huge fan of chamomile, but in this blend I did not mind it. It smells very herbal but it does not taste medicinal. Nice and soothing before bed.
The teas has a good taste and helped girlfriend get to sleep.
Not bad for a tea with valerian added in. Steeping at temp is correct.
I drink this every night! I think that a lot of sleepy time teas really miss the mark with flavor, but I found this very tasty. My only complaint is that it does tend to sneak out of the infuser a little.
This has a similar profile to Foxtrot for me, but I think I like this one slightly better.
Excellent to relax at night. I found it very soothing.
This tea is very good.
I love the taste. I would recommend.
This is a very relaxing and great tasting herbal tea selection.
This is my all time favorite before bed tea. I have been sleeping much better on nights I drink this tea. Even my Fitbit sleep score agrees!
This tea goes great with a book before bed time. Its relaxing and tastes great.
I am a terrible sleeper waking up easily 6 times a night. I tried 40 winks the first time last night and I felt like i actually stayed asleep!! Very excited about this purchase!
This great tea, with the right flavor and blends, puts my body in a relaxed state at the end of a day and aids my sleep.
A great tea to help wind down before bed. A nice, herbal blend that has all the right, relaxing, notes.
My go to for bedtime tea! Perfectly smooth and calming!
I was looking for a tea to help me relax before bedtime and this was the perfect fit. I drink it without any sweetner or cream and I still find it very tasty. It calms me down and helps me prepare for bed.
A very nice, soothing tea with an excellent mix of flavors
Tastes pretty great haven’t noticed a huge difference in my sleep yet
Very classing sleepy time flavor. Glad I got the large tin since I will definitely be getting it again
My oldest son swears by this tea. It is the only tea that helps calm him and eases him to a restful sleep
Just a wonderful aromatic dream to send off to dreamland!
I f you are plagued with insomnia and in need of just simply relaxing before bed when your head is still racing, I am telling you that this tasty natural warming tea is for you. Not only does it healthfully relax you to the point of sleep, you wake up wonderfully refreshed with no over the counter drug supplement hangover. No kidding, and I was skeptical... but no more! It does give you the much needed 40 winks! Love ya !
I love the flavour of this tea! Very nice before bed tea!
Really helps you to go to sleep. I did mix it with minty comfort. Delicious
I absolutely love this tea. It is like a warm blanket at night and though the smell is strong, the taste is more subtle and very enjoyable. It is very relaxing. I make it exactly as the package specifies. It is fine for resteeping as the leaves hold their flavor well.
This a a great tea when you can not sleep or if you are worried about the day
