This tea is so relaxing! It's like a weighted blanket for your soul. Take a deep breath, relax and sweet dreams!
It's a pleasant and soothing tea. I enjoyed the lavender in it, but I didn't feel that it stands out from other relaxing teas. It's still good, but not my favorite.
40 Winks definitely tastes like one of those 'drink it for a reason, not so much for fun' teas. The valerian gives it a strange but not entirely unpleasant taste. I personally would probably like it more if the chamomile weren't so pronounced. I prefer Daydream, for flavor, and it helps me sleep as well.
I like mint but I do not like chamomile. This tea made me miss my Daughter. As she would have loved this tea. The Chamomile was pretty strong for my taste. The mint was nice touch and helped.Even out some of the floral note.
This is my second review of this tea (as part of the communiTEA, I already bought it previously). I live this tea on nights I need help destressing and getting ready for bed. With a splash of milk and a good book or tv show I can unwind and get a good nights rest.
I normally find valerian root to have a really distinct (and unpleasant) flavor, but the mint and chamomile make this tea delicious!
I commented on how good this is after every sip. The chamomile flavor is very relaxing and grounding.
Calming. The flavors all pair nicely together in a soothing way. I'm nicely relaxed now.
I can see why this tea is one of Adagio's most highly-rated offerings. It's an exceptionally well-blended herbal tea with notes of mint and lavender primarily, backed up by earthy-sweet chamomile and honeybush. I don't know much about valerian or how potent it might be, so I waited until the evening to drink this. Hopefully it will help me sleep tonight! (10 mins @ 212 F, no sweetener)
This is one of those where if it were in the cabinets, I would finish it but I wouldn’t buy it again. Just not a fan of many that teas with lavender. It was a mild flavor but it and the mint together are really not my fave. If you like those flavors you might love this one.
If you like lavender, this is your tea for sure. The aroma is so soothing even before it’s tasted. The tea is subtle in flavor
Like a nice relaxing hot bath in a teacup. Soothing and calming...zzzzzzzzz
Heavy on the chamomile but the rest of this reminds me of cough syrup. I’m not sure what part of this puts me off so much but sniffing the cup makes me think of mosquito repellent. I seem to be in the minority here, and I’m disappointed because I usually love sleepy teas. Can’t win em all!
I love this tea. It is the perfect nighttime tea. It makes me relax and calm down before bedtime.
This smells TERRIBLE to me when it's still dry leaves, but once brewed, has a soft, soothing aroma and flavor.
Strongly herbal, but I find myself liking it. I think the mint helps a lot with the flavor of the chamomile and other sleep remedies.
Heavy on the chamomile which is understandable, although Inwould enjoy it more of it had a contrasting flavor to combat that. Overall pleasant tasting, can’t honestly say if it was beneficial or not.
This is a delightful blend. The combination of chamomile, spearmint, and lavender is perfect. One doesn't overpower the other.
By far my most used tea. I have some anxiety and insomnia issues and this tea solves both! The taste is really pleasant... slightly minty... The smell in the tin is pretty awful but the taste is wonderful!
This is one of the nicest blends of chamomile I have tasted. Very soothing and relaxing. I like the balance of spearmint and lavender.
Reviewed as part of the communiTEA. Not as good as the 3am slumbering sloth tea but still a nice bedtime cuppa!
This one pleasantly surprised me because lavender and cherry can be hit or miss for me. It might have helped that i cold steeped it all day so all the flavors were more mellow.
I liked the results too and will keep this one in my collection
Yummy tea. Naturally sweet. Good for bed time. I just don’t understand why it has to have mint. Mint seems like a bad thing for many healthy condition and it does not calm me at all
I come home from work later in the evening and have trouble falling asleep afterwards. This tea is my go-to for relaxation, and I'm usually asleep an hour after drinking it. I love anything with chamomile, so perhaps I'm a bit biased. I like to add a bit more lavender, but that's just my personal taste.
This is a nice tea for relaxing before bed. However, the chamomile is pretty strong and I'm not a huge fan of the scent.
So good! This is the perfect wind down for when it is a bit chilly outside.
Nice tea. Not a huge fan of honey bush but it was nice before bed. Relaxing tea.
Love this before bedtime. Very relaxing and tasty!
I drink this every night before bed. It can taste a little bit like toothpaste to me sometimes, but it does the trick. I add extra lavender and chamomile to it. As an insomniac, this really helps me relax and go to sleep.
Oh yes, mix this with some chamomile, and waalaa, sleep heaven
I enjoyed this before bed and I did feel calmer and relaxed. I will continue to use this and would buy this tea again.
I think I m the problem, not the tea, maybe. It just doesn t work for me. The taste was a bit too strong for me and just did nothing for me.
Great flavor and a perfect way to unwind after a long day.
I was surprised at how well it helps me sleep and it tastes great.
This is a great evening tea. It’s nice and relaxing.
I love their 40 Winks tea, it has a smooth taste and great before bedtime!
Sipping a cup of 40 Winks tea before bed every night is a great way to end the day and prepare for a good nights sleep.. Not only is it delicious but it’s very relaxing! I like to add a couple drops of honey to bring out the smooth flavors.
I love this! It does an excellent job of helping me get a good night's sleep.
This is my nightly tea now. I add a splash of sweet creamer and some honey and its sweet dreams for me
I don't find that is makes me particulary sleepy or relaxed. But it's quite tasty.
I have struggles with sleeping and do not want to use a chemical sleeping aid. I was skeptical with this, but I just bought three more boxes. It truly works and is a wonderful natural way to get help with getting some good shut eye. I highly recommend it.
This tea does exactly what youd want it to do! I fall asleep faster, rarely remember my dreams and feel rested in the morning. I genuinely like the flavor as well, it's a eucalyptus/mint flavor that is quite refreshing before bed. This tea will have to be apart of my daily life now, highly recommend 💤🍵
There was something off about the flavor for me. The valerian may have been the reason. It just didn t taste good at all.
This is my favorite tea from Adagio! It is light, soothing, and perfect for a bedtime regimen. It definitely has a faint valerin smell - but the taste is great! I really recommend this tea.
Something in this does not taste good at all. Perhaps the valerian? I don't know.
I got this to help with my terrible, terrible sleep and bad nightmares from melatonin (I am particularly sensitive) during this awful pandemic. It has helped SO much. It doesn't have the same kind of sleepy-feeling as melatonin does, of course, but the process of brewing it and the combination of herbs relaxed me quite a bit and helped me fall asleep more easily. It's delicious, especially with a little honey.
Definitely helps me to relax and usually puts me back to sleep at night. In the summerI like it cold with a bit of honey, but it's also good hot and without honey. When awakening in the middle of the night, it's nice to just pull out of the refrigerator and drink. When I plan ahead, I'll have a hot cup and just relax. I was skeptical (first just got a sample) but am very surprised and pleased to say that I've finally found something to help me get back to sleep after an unexpected awakening. This stuff works and tastes pretty good.
It's either you like or you don't. Fortunately, I got used to the taste. It has a pretty strong minty flavor as well as a herbal/medicinal taste to a bit. Overall, it's a good tea to aid in sleeping longer.
Really fragrant, fruity, and herbaceous. Has minty clean aftertaste. Before bed is great!
Tastes pretty good and it works! Quickly for me!!!
