Foxtrot

Herbal Rooibos Blend by Adagio Teas

Like the dance that inspired its name, our Foxtrot tea is an overnight success that will leave you giddy with joy. It is an herbal cocktail of Egyptian chamomile, South African Rooibos and fresh peppermint leaves. A soothing blend of familiar tastes that produces a pleasantly original combination. It is entirely caffeine-free. The spring in your step is due entirely to its enticing taste.

This is an absolutely exquisite, wonderfully beautiful tea. I fell in love with it as soon as I opened the box and the scent wafted out, distinguishing itself from it’s box-mates, intoxicating my olfactory senses. It’s a breezy tea with a refreshing breath of mint,a whirlwind of delightful chamomile, and a flutter of the rooibos flavors.

However, I’m not much for rooibos.

I love this blend because the chamomile is so sweet when mixed with the roobios. I’ve never had a a problem with chamomile putting me to sleep before but after a cup of this at work I struggled through the rest of my day. I will definitely save this for evenings at home.

I got this one last Fall and keep forgetting I have it. Drank some last Saturday and am still dreaming about it. It’s so soothing and really makes me relax. Almost reminds me of a mild chai.. it’s simply unique.

I generally drink this as an evening tea, as the chamomile can knock you out a bit. For that reason, it’s a great tea to sip on when you’re feeling a bit restless before bed.

The taste is overall very pleasant. However, I think the peppermint overwhelms a little bit, at least in the first infusion. Like another reviewer, I prefer spearmint over peppermint; if this blend included spearmint instead, I think it would help with the overwhelming mintiness. As it is, I only make this tea when I know I’m going to have the time and desire for a second infusion. Once the peppermint is toned down a bit by the first one, this tea really shines.

This herbal mix reminds me of flowers and baked goods. Foxtrot is an interesting and very well balanced blend of chamomile, peppermint, and vanilla rooibos. All of the flavors meld deliciously, none of them overpowering one or the other. The fragrance very floral, but not overly sweet. Because of the absence of caffeine, I enjoy this tea mostly as a nightcap. Try it with organic honey!

This is one of my favorite tisanes. It’s so simple and SO TASTY. Foxtrot is my boyfriend and mys night time tea almost every night. This will be a staple in my cupboard.

I normally drink tea instead of tisanes, just thought I’d give this a shot for a change of pace. Foxtrot makes a good infusion and the predominant taste is of chamomille. The peppermint is fairly toned down and the rooibos ads a nice base.

Tisanes have their followers and I guess I’m not one of them. If I’m sick and don’t want caffeine then I might go for this. I wouldn’t turn down a cup of Foxtrot but it isn’t something I’d buy again. If you like tisanes then give this a shot, it won’t disappoint.

This has has chamomile,peppermint,and roobios. You clearly see the ingredients. And mostly smell the mint. I steeped this up. And the taste I’s kind of roobios with mint and some chamomile. I thought this was good and suprizingly the roobios was tolerable to me in this.

This tea is easily one of my favorites. It’s a good caffeine-free pick-me-up for any time of the day. Foxtrot is a real treat for the senses: the flavors play off of each other very well, the smell is great, and it looks spectacular in the tin and while steeping.

Nothing to say about this tea that I haven’t already said. Just a great tea for any time of the day.

I like this tea because it’s the best of all worlds: refreshing, rich and calming. Good any time of the day, but I particularly like it in the afternoon.

This is one of my favorite evening teas.

I love foxtrot. It is one of my common evening time teas. I don’t know how rooibos + chamomile + mint = creamy flavor, but somehow that is how it turns out. It is wonderful. Just got a new big bag, too!

I’ve been eager to try this based purely on teaequalsbliss’s obsession with it. This is a VERY interesting tea.

This tea has everything I love: Soothing chamomile, refreshing mint, and satisfying rooibos. The flavors kind of dance around like there is a party in my mouth, but no one flavor really over powers the others. It is well balanced and unlike anything I’ve tasted in a tea.

Smelled like chocolate mint, not quite sure why. Thoroughly enjoyed.

Light in color but not in scent! Before and during the steeping process the scent is like nothing I have ever smelled before. There is so much going on here! It’s Chamomile but better…minty but with other influences jumping in…herbal but not medicine-smelling…even smells a little fruity or even like a vegetable garden at times. Pleasant to look at and smell. The taste is refreshing yet calming. I really enjoy this one…maybe even so much so that it’s my new fave nighttime or bedtime tea.

Well, it’s been a while since I had Foxtrot so I decided to have a cup last night. I have had my 4-ouncer for a while and have been supplying my father’s new found love for the stuff, too, so it has been used, but I am beginning to wonder if the actual storage life isn’t as strong to stand on as other teas can be. It tasted a little off last night…for some reason…a little funky…not sure…maybe it was just human error…totally possible considering I was the human who prepared it! LOL – anyhow…it wasn’t bad, just not as good as it usually is. I am backlogging this from last night – but I wanted to make sure I logged this finding for my own records…

Backlogging – from last night – thought I would visit an old friend that I have been neglecting lately. “Fox” forgave me and all was well. Altho…it wasn’t as minty but it was still sweet and calming…

Just because. OR if you really need a reason…to unwind. :) CHEERS

Backlogging…sipped after yoga last night…

backlogging…

This evening’s tea. Understeeped just for the heck of it…still good…seems to be hard to screw this one up! Lovely!

Backlogging…as an after dinner mint, if you will

I always like to see what others say about the teas I have tried and have retried. Just noticed Mindala’s note about my postings/obsession with Foxtrot. Okay…I’m ready to admit it…I LOVE this tea. There I said it! :P I’m not usually into herbals unless its peppermint which this blend does have. And I am not usually a fan of chamomile ‘just because; but again this blend has it and it works well. Among other things. I think I’m a fan purely because it’s a creative blend that makes you ponder “just what it’s all about” and then you move on to pondering other things. Let’s just say it makes everyone a poet who partakes. ENJOY!

3 cups tonight. Different each time I steep it but had to screw up. I am really glad I found this tea!

Winding Down for the evening. Crafting. Reflecting. Enjoying a nice creative cuppa!

Foxtrot. Iced. A first for me on this. NICE! Refreshing. But different from hot that is for sure. I enjoyed it.

Finally reordered! Breath In – Breath Out – Smell the herbally goodness! Ahhhhh! Hello Ole’ Friend! I’ve Missed YOU! ending my day with several cups…testing the resteeps.

It’s happened…I have fell in love with a tea and after tonight I am officially out of it and MUST reorder. It might be a few weeks to a month tho because I will be away on vacation. LOVE the way this one smells, taste, and even looks! Nice Change!

Forgot to log from last night…my stash of this stuff is fading fast…ek! MUST order more SOON

Forgot to log last night…over-steeped…tremendous!

LOVE IT! :) I’m surprised I like this one as much as I do! But…I do!!!!

yummy…almost nighty-night…time to wind down…

I tried this at my friend’s house and discovered she has amazing taste in tea, ha ha. The combination of flavors really does almost do a dance on your tongue and a bit down your throat as it goes. Recommended if you like any of the following: mint tea, rooibos tea AND/OR chamomile tea.
