I have only drank this tea once so far since I’ve had it. I definitely recommend it either not sweetened at all or sweetened just a little bit if it’s too sweet it’s absolutely unbearable to drink. But overall, the flavor is very soothing
One cup before bed makes for an ideal way to unwind and lull yourself into a deep slumber.

excellent tasting sleep inducing tea. my kids love it! relaxing during the day of my anxiety is acting up.
It taste great and help relax before bed! It's very warming.
Very herbal and woodsy, but was looking for the "relaxing" factor and really wasn't all that different from celestial seasons sleepy time teas, but more $
Delicious taste and I enjoyed it even when I over steeped it. I found I felt relaxed and had better sleep
The valerian root smell is strong with this. Overpowering enough that I don't drink this as often as I planned. It is very drinkable and relaxing.
More sleepy time teas, please! This makes for a wonderful break from my favorite decaf chocolate truffle.
Love the flavor, I found it every relaxing and enjoyable before bed.
I found the flavor to be delicious & comforting. It definitely helped me fall & stay asleep. The only downside is that I felt groggy the next day.
Great flavor, nice tea to drink, no complaints, happy
Although I enjoy this tea and its woodsy flavor, I have not noticed any effect on my sleep. I will continue to drink this over store bought brands.
I took a cup of this with me in the bedroom and drank it while reading. Very gentle and soothing flavor and I slept like a baby!
Relaxed me like a glass of wine! And much better for me.
40 Winks is delicious and soothing. I have a cup about 45 minutes before bed and I am sleeping better.
Melatonin has nothing on this. I drank a cup and thirty minutes later I could barely keep my eyes open. This tea tastes so good! I would recommend it.
This sleepy tea is great! A lot of sleepy teas I've had in the past have licorice in it and I don't like the taste. This one is lovely and calming, not too overpowering. The lavender and chamomile are definitely the stars of this tea! I prefer a stronger tea, so I used 1 tbsp. for about 8 oz.
Holy moly that's good. The bright sensation of spearmint lunges at you, then quickly mellows out, carried by the earthy tones of the other ingredients. I had a really hard day and I couldn't sleep, but this tea started my eyes to feeling heavy and actually did what is described on the package. I didn't think it would be this legit, but it is. I will be keeping this one stocked.
Very refreshing tea almost minty and makes you feel calm
Smooth, calming, and perfectly balanced with subtle flavors—this tea is ideal for relaxing after a long day.
40 Winks missed the mark in my personal opinion. I had high hopes for this tea. I mix it with different tea leaves so that it can be somewhat enjoyable. I really hate to waste tea. I’m so happy I got a sample of it.
40 winks is delicious and comforting. The chamomile is not overpowering. This is very well-balanced.
What a nice calming tea to wind day a hard day. Make this for my son & I who both have ADHD and takes a long time for us to go to sleep but this helps so much!! A light flavor with honey and cream yum
It's a very soothing tea! I want to keep ordering this and have it stocked for my nights when I'm trying to wind down. I think it hits the spot perfectly.
I tried this tea last night sweetened it with honey and really enjoyed it and found it very relaxing. I will definitely buy this tea again!
This tea & chamomile are the only ones that actually help me relax and/or sleep. I love the flavors of this one so much
Loved this tea so much better than anything store bought
Good calming flavor. A nice mix up from a traditional chamomile for sleep time.
40 winks has a stronger flavor than I’m used to before bed but it worked well.
Subtle flavors here. Keep in mind that I double my portion size, so the fact that it was still mild was surprising. I also added a little sweetner. Did I sleep better? Nah, but it was a nice treat to drink to enjoy before bedtime.
My first night time tea. Love the flavor of this tea and definitely helped with my sleep.
Great bedtime tea with a delicious blend of flavors
Enjoying this tea. To me the flavor is good. Steeps strong and dark. Really helps to relax and sleep.
Crazy amazing! I have the worst time with sleeping. Don't want a prescription med to do so...tried this tea with every intention of it not helping..was I wrong !!! This tea is truly a realistic solution and delicious
Tastes like if potpourri was a tea. Not that exciting and didn’t make me feel anymore relaxed than the cha cha does.
I work very long hours and sometimes its difficult for me to fall asleep most nights. This tea is perfect right before bedtime.
I love this tea when traveling as a great alternative to the generic chamomile offered in hotels. While this tea does contains chamomile, it is delicious and earthy. I am fond of savory over sweet and this tea hits all the right spots for me. I love the mint and honeybush but do add a touch of honey.
Amazing for a good night sleep and to detox from the day. A light beautiful tea that is warming and calming.
It turns out I really don’t like the flavor of valerian. To me it smells like sweaty feet. It didn’t help me sleep much either.
This is a good tea for a good relaxing day. It's mild and tasty. This is definitely a tea for falling asleep. The steep time is between 5-10 minutes. This is update. If you want to relax steep for 5 minutes 10 for a good nights sleep.
Oh my god so bad! Maybe it’s the anise overpowering the other slices for me but it smelled and tasted like black mold to me once brewed. Was so excited about this tea too, the ingredients sounded so great.
Best tea for sleep ever. I have tried alot of teas and supplements that have not worked and/or have left me feeling tired all day the next day. The plus is it taste delicious because of the combination of items it has in it.
This tea is my go to if I'm having trouble sleeping. The flavor is nice with a bit of honey.
My husbands absolute favorite evening tea. Delish. Soothing peppermint and chamomile. Lovely all times of year
I don’t like strong mint tea and this is really good. The light spearmint is great. It brewed up nice and dark, too!
This tea has a mild taste that helps relax you. I really like it
Adagio’s 40 Winks tea is a calming, caffeine-free blend with chamomile, lavender, and lemon balm. Its mellow, floral taste is perfect for winding down, creating a cozy bedtime ritual without bitterness. Great for easing into a restful night’s sleep!
Certainly helps you fall asleep, even shared this with a coworker (RN) who was having issues falling asleep and it helped them as well! Unfortunately the flavor combination wasn’t for either of us, even though we live the individual flavors. If you can tolerate the flavor I certainly recommend it!
It does have a medicinal smell but not a bitter one surprisingly. The tea can be an acquired taste if one isn’t used to medicinal teas, which to that point the valerian root is definitely showing up in this blend. All around an enjoyable flavor experience for a medicinal nervous system relaxant/sleep aid.
Relaxing, has really good flavor. Had it twice so far, might be a staple in my night routines.
Not the best tasting but it helps me a lot with sleep.
