Well I am truly confused. This tea smells odd. I thought at first it might be the rooibos which I’m decidedly un-fond of… But I wasn’t sure what to make of it so I gave it a go.
It doesn’t have the strongest aroma. The rosehips make it smell blech to me.
But I was VERY surprised to find that it doesn’t taste terrible. The rooibos and rosehips… both things I despise… aren’t overpowering the tea.

Now can I can still taste the rosehips. They are something I’d still rather it DIDN’T Have. Ugh. But the rooibos blends nicely and just like my beloved Foxtrot, it is true that Rooibos can use its powers for evil or for Awesome.

I like this tea. I like it a lot even. if it didn’t have rosehips I’d rate it REALLY high… But alas! That dastardly Rosehips, my arch nemesis strikes again! I give it full marks for being this good despite the evil Rosehips having gotten to it already!

Loves tea, reading, music, art, video games, roleplaying, and spending time with her wife and daughter. :)

Ask me for a $5 gift cert to Adagio if you’ve never ordered from them!

As for tea, loves flavored black teas, herbals, and good lattes most. Green is hit or miss with me and I haven’t found a white I like yet. I like my tea sweet, no matter how much some tea connoisseurs turn their noses up at me for it. I love trying new teas and I’ll try anything once!

I noticed this elsewhere on the site so I’m going to post a ratings legend as well:

95-100 Favorite; This is one of my favorite teas. I will want to keep this in stock all the time. I will drink a lot of this tea. I’m likely to send samples of this in swaps because I LOVE it and want to SHARE my love of it with you!

90-94 Excellent; Some of the best teas I’ve tried. Delish. I will probably buy more.

80-89 Very Good; I liked it and would like to have it again for sure. I will surely buy it again at some point. Not quite “The best” of any category, but some good stuff to be sure.

70-79 Pretty Good; Maybe it’s just not quite my type of tea or not quite my flavor, but I acknowledge that it’s a good tea. I might drink it again if the mood strikes me. Not very likely to buy it again. May still recommend it to others based on their tastes.

50-69 Okay; I probably won’t buy it again, but will probably finish drinking what I have. It’s not bad. Not good… but not bad. I probably won’t recommend it.

50 or less Meh; I didn’t really enjoy this tea. I won’t buy it again and can’t recommend it.

10-0 I must have really, really hated this tea. It may have killed my puppy or absconded with my cheesecake. I’m pretty sure it killed Professor Xavier.
