This one tastes very similar to the cinnamon roll one, just without the icing element. The rooibos base they use is different from any other I’ve tried before, and while I do like it, I don’t prefer it to other rooibos. The second steep of this was tastier and more flavorful than the first steep, somehow. I did like it, and I liked how the flavor lingers. I couldn’t taste caramel specifically, moreso just the rooibos, maybe some breadiness, maybe some spice. I’m rating it pretty highly because even though it’s not my favorite (in fact I was finishing up my beloved S&V almond rooibos right beside it – some of the best rooibos ever), I did have quite a nice time drinking it.

Bio
I’m an event planner who always has multiple mugs of tea beside me. Hobbies other than tea include board games, video games, cooking international dishes, science fiction, hiking, jigsaw puzzles, tap dancing, reading, listening to podcasts, and playing with my troublesome kitties.
Favorite flavors: dessert flavors, nutty, melon, mint, strawberry, anything rooibos-related.
Don’t prefer: Smoky, rosemary, savory flavors, floral (other than lavender), plain tea.
I always drink flavored tea, and preferably caffeine-free or black. I’ll try just about anything though! Let me know if you’re interested in a swap!
My ratings are kind of meaningless, but basically
90-100 pretty perfect
80-89 really good
70-79 good, but not the best
60-69 okay, but probably not for me
1-59 varying degrees of dislike

I’ll have to try the S&V almond rooibos. Somehow I haven’t yet. haha.
I wish I weren’t out of it! I’m a huge rooibos fan, so it did not last long at all in my cupboard. It doesn’t taste like almond, but it’s a quality rooibos.
