I haven't had green rooibos before--this one being pretty good means I should probably try other varieties of it.

Grassy, but not in the same way as green teas, is how I'd describe this tea's aroma, flavor, and mouthfeel (if that makes sense). Its color is a lovely almost-golden hue. (I'm uploaded a picture of the brewed tea.) It is neither bitter nor sweet and would make a decent any-day drinking te...</description></item><item><title>Review of South African Green Rooibos (Red Bush) Superior by Amanda </title><link>http://ratetea.com/review/2797/</link><guid>http://ratetea.com/review/2797/</guid><pubDate>Tue, 08 Oct 2013 23:45:50 EST</pubDate><description>The aroma of the little leaves is very clean and reminiscent of standing in a hay field. I also notice hints of strawberry which was nice. Once brewed the aroma becomes much sweeter and takes on floral notes.

The taste is good! Not as sweet as the oxidized version but still sweet, no floral tastes but the fruit makes a return. </description></item><item><title>Review of Green Rooibos (Rooibos, Green Tea) by Alex Zorach</title><link>http://ratetea.com/review/1837/</link><guid>http://ratetea.com/review/1837/</guid><pubDate>Mon, 25 Jun 2012 14:27:38 EST</pubDate><description>Upon sampling the green rooibos from Mountain Rose Herbs, this became a new favorite for me, and my new preferred source of green rooibos.

Although the dry leaf is light green in color, I found that the flavor of this was more similar to red rooibos than other green rooibos samples.  Brews a light orange color.

It was rather similar to Rishi's green rooibos, which has since been discountinued, and given that both are organic and fair trade certified, I wonder if this herb was produced by the same sou...</description></item><item><title>Review of Green Rooibos - Sweet African Red by Cyn Coleman</title><link>http://ratetea.com/review/1554/</link><guid>http://ratetea.com/review/1554/</guid><pubDate>Mon, 20 Feb 2012 17:11:22 EST</pubDate><description>I thought I'd try something new when I saw this box of tea at my local health food store and remember seeing Rooibos on the list of teas on this site, so I bought a box.

I wasn't sure of how it smelled until I got home as the box was sealed as were the bags, but it has a nice sweet &quot;grassy&quot; scent.

The green rooibos taste came as a pleasant surprise as light and sweet, and a bit grassy. When my son went to South Africa and asked his niece what she would like to have brought back, she asked for a &quot;piec...</description></item><item><title>Review of Green Rooibos (Green Bush) by Alex Zorach</title><link>http://ratetea.com/review/172/</link><guid>http://ratetea.com/review/172/</guid><pubDate>Wed, 11 Nov 2009 12:41:35 EST</pubDate><description>I really like this!  It's astonishingly different from the other green Rooibos I've tried, from Upton.  This one has a bit of red leaf/stem mixed in and brews a bright orange color.

I recommend a very long steeping time; after 3 minutes the aroma hasn't fully developed.  The aroma is fresh, light, and clean, with a bit of a pleasant seafood-like quality to it, also somewhat like grass or straw.  Fruity, but in a subdued way.  Less earthy than red rooibos, and with less sourness.  An outstanding herbal t...</description></item><item><title>Review of South African Green Rooibos (Red Bush) Superior by Alex Zorach</title><link>http://ratetea.com/review/117/</link><guid>http://ratetea.com/review/117/</guid><pubDate>Tue, 13 Oct 2009 10:27:12 EST</pubDate><description>Green rooibos is one of my all-time favorite herbal teas.  Upton's offering is very similar to other sources of this herb, but I find theirs has a slightly greener character, and is among the most reasonably priced, and for both of these reasons, it is my green rooibos of choice.  I drink this particular offering from Upton in quantity.

Almost like lemongrass without the lemon; grassy but in a very different way from the grassier green teas.  Fresh, clean, light, and crisp.  Just a hint of pleasant bitt...</description></item></channel>
