I am so over this. One more and it’s a sipdown. It’s just a plain, one-note rooibos, and not even a good one at that. It’s got a sort of chemically taste which I find really odd. On top of that I bought it in a rooibos four-pack, the other three being flavoured, and every single one of them, despite being individually wrapped, has always tasted the same. It’s not exactly foul spit-it-out-immediately tasting, but it’s boring my tastebuds to death and I’d be happy never to drink it again.

I’m falling out of love with rooibos too. I do have some great rooibos blends, but I’m kind of tired of the flavour these days (especially plain/rooibosy tasting blends).

Tell me about it. I can only think of one rooibos blend that I really really like. ):

Arby

Which blend is that? I’m big into cocoa chai rooibos right now (David’s Tea). It isn’t high in the rooibos flavour category though.

Nattie

I’ve never tried that. The one I was talking about was Della Terra’s Lime Chiffon, but I forgot about another I really like which is Bluebird Tea Co.‘s Rhubarb and Custard. Neither of them are available any more, though, so once I’m out I’m out!

Rooibos tea will never be a favourite of mine but it’ll do when I’m in a mood that I just don’t care what I drink. The woody taste is odd to me but I can put up with it. I much prefer white, green, black, oolong and herbal tea over rooibos. I don’t hate it but I would never go out of my way to have it either. Most of the rooibos tea I have were given to me as part of a gift pack or what I bought at David’s Tea to see if flavouring would make the rooibos taste any better to me (it doesn’t.) This tea is just a straightforward rooibos and really, it isn’t half bad. Maybe I’ll still learn to appreciate it but for now I’ll stick to drinking my old faithfuls (mostly.)
