★★★★☆

Very nice tea for nighttime. It makes me feel relaxed and calm.

★★★★★

The smell is a little strange but the taste is so wonderful. It’s so smooth and helps me unwind before bed

★★★★★

Soothing, with a flavor to be expected from valerian and chamomile. Taste takes getting used to for the uninitiated, but the relaxation it provides makes it worth sampling!

Very soothing night time tea, helps getting to sleep each time I drink it.

★★★★☆

The flavor is not my favorite, but in terms of helping me wind down for bed it's very effective. I mixed it with an herbal tea that was a little too fruity for me and it helped balance out the flavor of the valerian root and chamomile which are a little overpowering.

★★★★☆

Nice flavor and just felt so soothing right before bed.

★★★★☆

This was a nice tea. I would buy it again, but I would have liked a little more of a developed flavor.

★★★★★

This is the tea if your looking for a good evening tea.

This tea definitely helps me to calm down before bed. It has a smooth taste.

★★★★★

Delicious, it is exactly what you want right before bed. I got this mostly for my mother who has trouble falling asleep, but after her first try, she was yawning and slow blinking away. It was like magic, lol 😆

Valerian is a very... love it or hate it flavor. It smells worse than it tastes. Can help me sleep when I'm not too sleepless, but if something prevents me from sleeping it's not strong enough to do anything to me. I will be ordering more, and I do think it's worth a try, especially for folks who have trouble sleeping at night.

If you struggle with the taste, you need something stronger than milk. I've found honey and heavy cream can cut through it and make it bearable. Sweet dreams!

★★★★☆

Didn't help on the sleep end of things, but a very enjoyable cup right before bed

★★★★★

Drink it every night. Very calming. It has a wonderful aroma.

★★★★☆

It actually did help me fall asleep, which is rare for this type of tea. The taste is an acquired one for sure but compared to other brands with similar components it really is one of the better tasting ones... particularly if you are a big herbal teas person.

★★★★★

I have had trouble relaxing at night and not falling asleep for a while. This tea takes me from running around getting things done to my cozy happy place. The morning after I feel like I slept 12 hours when I am still getting my 6-8 hours in.

Maybe it was a placebo effect, but I totally felt more relaxed and sleepy after a cup of this. It tastes good; nice mix of chamomile and lavender with a light touch of spearmint. No sweetener or cream needed at all.

★★★★☆

Wonderful blend and very calming. I personally forgot how bold valerian smell is, however once brewed it's barely noticable and tastes amazing!

Whoa I was having trouble sleeping and bazinga. I slept the entire night and woke at 6. I couldn't believe it and it is so yummy tasting. My husband and I look forward to our evening tea. Thank you for a great night's sleep. :)

The best tea to relax and go to sleep. Will buy again.

★★★★★

My 5 year old loves this tea. I also enjoy the flavor. It doesn't necessarily work as a sleep tea for him, but he requests it all the time. For me it provides a nice calm.

My son and I have loved enjoying this tea In the evenings to wind down. We add a little honey and 1tsp/cup and it’s Perfect.

Nice flavor but not “wow.” Similar to a typical sleepy time tea but smoother. Will drink this when I am trying to wind down.

I’m not a huge minty tea fan, hence the 4 stars, but I must say that I do enjoy this tea. It does settle me down at night. It doesn’t knock me out but it is very calming and relaxing.

★★★★☆

dont know if it helped my sleep per say but very good flavor!! never had any type of chamomile before and unfortunately i think i had an allergic reaction so thats why it’s only 4 stars :( loved the taste though! i will try again to see if it is the tea for sure and if not i will update!

★★★★★

one of my new favorite ways to end the day. a nice mellow blend for a wind down.

★★☆☆☆

I know I am in the minority with this one, but I did not care for this tea! Rather than comforting, it was way to heavy on my stomach before bed. I think (personally) this tea was a little overloaded with ingredients. No matter how many times I tried it, it still made me sick every time. Clearly a lot of other people enjoyed this one, so It will probably be something people have to try for themselves. :-/

One cup of this totally helps me wind down for bed. My mother loves it too, I've gotten her hooked on it.

★★★★★

My new favorite nighttime tea - sleeping so much better and it doesn't have a strong chamomile taste, which I'm found off-putting in other 'sleepy' teas.
