Vanilla Rooibos Parfait Full Leaf from Tazo Tea
Style: Flavored Rooibos – Region: Blend15 / 100 Aroma: 3/10 Flavor: 1/5 Value: 1/5

Ugh. This one was sweetened, and I didn't expect it. Annoyingly, I can't find any info online about it being sweetened or what it is sweetened with. To me, this tastes extremely sweet, but I'm used to only drinking unsweetened tea. And from reading the commercial description, there's no way to know that it's sweete...

Red Tea - Cinnamon and Vanilla from Wissotzky
Style: Flavored Rooibos – Region: Blend37 / 100 Aroma: 2/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 2/5

This brews a deep red cup. The aromas blend well, but the cinnamon has an artificial quality to it. I can notice the base rooibos, but the flavorings slightly overpower it. The whole blend is full-bodied, and naturally rather sweet.
I would like this blend, if it were not for the artificial cinnamon aroma. With ...
Spiced Rooibos Ruby Red Chai from Trader Joe's
Style: Rooibos Chai / Spiced Rooibos – Region: Blend50 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5

Classic spiced chai flavor, but the aroma is mostly of spice without much rooibos. Similar to a masala chai made out of a lighter black tea. Aroma is dominantly of clove, with some cinnamon too. I would appreciate more cardamom presence as well as a stronger presence of the rooibos used as the base. The spice absol...

Sweet & Spicy Caffeine Free from Good Earth Teas
Style: Flavored Rooibos – Region: Blend43 / 100 Aroma: 3/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 2/5

The aroma of this blend is transient, which I suspect is due to the artificial flavorings. The aroma of the cup is strong, spicy, and suggestive of sweetness, before it touches my tongue, but upon drinking, the aroma seems much weaker.
The flavor is smooth, with a fairly strong natural sweetness due to the cinnamon...
African Solstice from Tea Forte
Style: Flavored Rooibos – Region: Blend57 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 2/5
Mar. 17th, 2010
Smooth and really well-balanced...the aromas of fruit, rooibos, and vanilla blend well; it's hard to tell where one ends and the other begins. A warming tea. Rich aroma but mellow flavor...no bitterness and a surprisingly clean aftertaste.
I was able to make two infusions (3 min. and 5 min.) with a small 8-oz cup,...
African Sunset from Two Leaves and a Bud
Style: Flavored Rooibos – Region: Blend70 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5

The lemongrass is very present, at times dominating the rooibos in the aroma. Also, the lemongrass adds a sharpness and crispness that changes the character of this tea--it is not at all smooth the way rooibos on its own is. I like it though; it's a bit of a surprise but I think it's a welcome one. I think they've u...
