Autumn Harvest Rooibos from The Boston Tea Company

Jaime drank Autumn Harvest Rooibos by The Boston Tea Company

Thank you, LiberTEAS, for sending me some of this to try!

It does taste like apple cider! The apple is strong and tastes like a Red Delicious. The spices are subtle (cinnamon is the strongest, but by no means overpowering), and there’s just a bit of the lemongrass at the end of the tea. The rooibos in this one tastes a bit woodier to me, but it really adds to the tea and makes it taste like fall and going to an apple orchard.

Definitely something I’ll be investing in!!

I love the name and description of this tea, although I don’t get much apple out of most teas I’ve tried. Does the apple come through strongly in this one?

It’s pretty strong. But if you’re really wanting apple, I’d suggest Tazo’s Vanilla Rooibos. It really should have been named apple rooibos. I can send some if you like.

I think I’ve tried that. I think I had it as a latte style beverage when they came out with it at Starbucks. Yes that was very Apple-y!

Bio

My love of tea started in 2001, whilst in an internship in London, England. I shared an office with a lovely man who would make me a cup of tea every morning without asking me if I even wanted it. I drink my tea neat now, because I’ve yet to find the sugar/milk combination that lives up to Pablo’s.

I drink any and all kinds of tea, and love trying new brands/varieties/flavors.
