I really loved this tea! I has a lite taste and is great just before bed.
i have a really hard time finding a sleepy time tea that i genuinely enjoy the taste of but this one is probably my new go to for bed time i do feel like its calming and helps me unwind and fall asleep faster but it still has that weird sleepy time tea smell and taste i just make sure its nice and hot when im drinking it and then you dont notice it as much
This is a really great tea, I enjoy the variety of flowers especially the cornflower. For the past few months this has been my go to for my evening cuppa tea.
This reminds me of a name brand bedtime blend tea I used to buy in a six pack online. I drank this before bed last night and it did work. I dosed off while watching Youtube videos on my tablet. I'm buying again.
This is one of my favorite pre-bed teas. It's light, delicious, and by the end of my (admittedly large) cup - I'm ready to drift off into dream land. I received a sample, then bought a slightly larger bit... then went full on and got as much as possible. It's beautiful.
This is my favorite bedtime tea. It has a nice, smooth flavor—not aggressive at all. Ideal for right before bed!
I first got a sample of this and was enjoying it one night when my husband asks 'what are you drinking? Can I taste it?' H liked it so much that I forced (yea right) to order more. He now asked for this every night and has been known to make it himself. We both enjoy this tea and it does help us wind down before bed. It has a pleasant flavor that I enjoy, though I have been known to put a bit of Berry Blue in for a change every so often.
If you like chamomile mint tea, you'll like this. Chamomile and mint are the dominant flavors. Caveat there is I don't really know what valerian tastes like--so I could be missing it. There's definitely more of a floral 'planty' taste to this than regular chamomile mint, and it's more full-bodied because it does have tea in it. It's calming for sure. Made me a bit sleepy, but didn't actually help me sleep. Overall would recommend. Good nighttime or stress time tea.
I like the idea of this tea, and it tastes nice, but it has a really weird smell. I noticed it the first time I brewed it, it's like...sour kitchen trash? I can't describe it, but the first time I brewed it I was going nuts trying to figure out where the smell was coming from. Needless to say, I will not be ordering again.
My favorite tea from adagio. I sometimes add a bit of vanilla rooibos. I also add a teaspoon of chamomile if I’ve had an especially tiring day.
This tea definitely relaxes me and gets me ready for a good night’s sleep. It’s a bit heavy on the valerian root (Which I understand since the tea is meant to make you sleepy). I just add some more chamomile and spearmint to balance it out for my palate.
I didn't care for the flavor of this tea; however, my grandparents loved it. They said it helped them sleep after several days of insomnia.
This tea has saved my awful sleeping patterns. I love that I can drink this before bed and get a nice restful sleep and wake up without feeling groggy or weighed down in the morning
Sometimes I get insomnia and I really dislike taking sleeping pills. This tea helps me fall asleep and it tastes lovely.
excellent taste and helped me get one of the best night sleep i've had in a long time.
This tea is wonderful, and has turned into my favorite night time tea. It has a nice flavor and is very soothing.
I wish i like sleepy teas better. They do make me drowsy, but I just am not a fan of the flavors.
A very flavorful tea! Similar to the foxtrot but with a more citrusy aftertaste than the peppermint of the foxtrot.
Great tea for evening, I drink a cup while getting settled in for the evening and it helps me sleep.
My favorite night-time tea, instantly calms me down while leaving a subtle sweetness behind.
Good. Very calming. I felt it was a little heavy on valerian root. Maybe just my palate.
I bought this because I have problems falling asleep. This is mild and gives a cozy, calm feeling while drinking.
Great for drinking before bed or after work to relax.
Absolutely DELICIOUS!! Helps me sleep but the taste I would drink it all day! One of my favorites
Not a fan of the aroma at all. However, the tea itself is rather good and great for your pre-bedtime ritual.
My son loves this tea to help him sleep. We always keep some on hand.
A really nice tea, soothing and the valerian root and lavender aren't too strong.
A nice tea, a lot of different flavors going on at once. I can definitely taste the lavender, with hints of peppermint.
I've heard so much about this particular blend, and decided to take a risk by diving into the 16oz bag. (Hopefully Adagio restocks the smaller sizes soon; but it's definitely worth buying in bulk!) The chamomile comes through great and it's the perfect bedtime tea. An excellent tea for nighttime anxiety as well!
This is a mellow but flavorful tea. Relaxing and complex.
This tea is amazing. It really helps me to fall asleep.
This is a nice refreshing minty tea to have before bed.
What a delicious way to wind down at the end of the day!
Great product. The tea had a nice flavor. I would buy it again
This is by far my favorite...for those of you who have anxiety this is the tea to have...I brew it after dinner and sip on it until bed...love it..very calming and helps put me into a calmer state and helps me drift to sleep...
This is a tasty way to wind down before bed. Love it!
Yummy and so relaxing before bed. Perfect on a cold night.
* Still a favorite for cool nights before bed. I always make sure to buy a replacement before I run out.
I suffer from anxiety and insomnia. While the medicine I take for insomnia does help to a degree sometimes my anxiety is just too high and I can t get to sleep. This really helped me to be able to relax enough to fall asleep. Didn t taste half bad either!
I have this every night and I wake up feeling well rested.
Smells great and tastes great but on first try I did not feel sleepy. Not sure I thought it would but we shall see lol. No matter what I like the taste.
This is the perfect relaxing in the evening tea. Even the smell of it calms me down right away.
A cup of this tea at night makes me sleepy. I was taking valerian root, but the smell of this, even in capsule form, is horrible. I think the lavender helps to mitigate this smell and taste. It is enjoyable to drink this tea and it helps me sleep.
It does actually help relax me, I’m just not big on the taste of chamomile or I would’ve rated it highee
I liked this tea, very soothing chamomile notes with a hint of the other flowers.
I don't know if this tea actually helps me sleep or if it's just a placebo effect, but I do like having it on hand after a stressful day! The flavor is not something I would have chosen on my own, but I've grown to like it quite a bit.
Love the flavors of this tea just before bedtime.
Good herbal tea. It's nice for a calming bedtime cup
I love this in the evening, very smooth. I don’t notice a smell from the valerian like other reviewers.
Really smooth & calming, I like the flavor better than Celestial Seasons sleepy time & about the same as Trader Joe's well rested tea. 3/4 of the way through a cup & I'm nodding off lol
Flavor-wise it is not my favorite, but it is relaxing.
