From Indigo Tea Company

Our Rooibos Vanilla is caffeine-free, but medium bodied like tea. South Africa’s rooibos is nice hot or chilled

Sipdown!

I mixed the last of this with some rose petals, since I’ve found that I really like Rooibos with floral flavors. It’s a good combination. This is a good rooibos to start with, too. It’s smooth with a pleasant woody flavor. The vanilla is present, but rather mild. It’s nice to drink on it’s own, but I like it even better for blending.

Preparation
Boiling 8 min or more 8 OZ / 236 ML
Kristal

That’s what I find with EVERY vanilla rooibos I’ve ever had- never enough vanilla for my taste.

Rooibos and Honeybush blends often tend to be very lightly flavored, I don’t know why.

Kristal

I agree on the whole. Although, One of my favorite rooibos blends (especially for lattes) is Birthday Cake by DAVIDs. It actually has a good deal of vanilla/maple flavor. In terms of having enough vanilla flavoring, nothing else comes close. But that’s just my opinion ;)

rosebudmelissa

I’ve heard good things about that one, but haven’t gotten around to trying it. It’s on my wishlist, so I’m sure I’ll get to it eventually!

Evol Ving Ness

Agree with Kristal. Sometimes BC is even too robust. Makes a mean latte though.

HGTTB

I don’t have much to say about this one. Meh. Not enough vanilla for me. I was able to taste it in the first couple of sips, but after that, I’m left wondering if I got used to it that quickly, or if it just isn’t there. Because it’s such a common flavor, and I like many other company’s more, I don’t think I’d reach for this one again. It’s not bad, per se, but doesn’t stand out in any way that would make me want to keep it on hand.

This brew has such a smooth earth flavor. The rooibos brings it a dusty field taste. The vanilla smooths this out and enlightens the taste. I brewed this western styled with a generous amount. The aroma is mostly of a robust vanilla. I had only one complaint with this tea. As I began drinking down my steep, the vanilla become more and more subtle. This caused the brew to become more dry. This wont be a tea for me.

The first time I tried this tea I wasn’t very impressed. I must have done something wrong because this time around I’m finding it quite nice. The vanilla is subtle like a ninja you don’t really know it’s there until bam. The aftertaste is what really does it to me. Kinda minty almost.

It’s good hot and cold. I’m honestly not sure of which I prefer more but I think I’m leaning a little more towards the cold because I can taste more vanilla.

Flavors: Cream, Vanilla
