I got this tea for my wife, who likes cranberry flavor, but she has avoided it because the main aroma and flavor is from the rooibos (which she doesn't like). So to please her, I drink it instead. ;-)
This is one of the very few flavored or herbal teas I've had containing rooibos where the rooibos clearly dominated the other flavors. Indeed, when I sniffed the dry bag then the wet bag after steeping, I barely could detect the berry components at all, and the hibiscus didn't reveal itself. Only in the taste, and especially aftertaste, does the fruitiness come alive, which I suppose is when it matters most, right? Still, despite a little tartness imparted by the hibiscus, I neither can distinguish the cranberry and pomegranate flavorings from each other, nor identify them together as anything but a generic, fairly mild and mellow element. Overall, it tasted just like a fairly good-quality rooibos with background fruit-punch flavor.
