If ANY tea smells like a coffee – it’s this one. I totally forgot about this one…that is why I haven’t logged it. Totally forgot I had it and must say after tasting it again today I remember why. It leaves a really bad aftertaste and is like black coffee with sugar taste. The coloring is nice tho…a vibrant reddish-brown. I think this one will remain in the back of my desk to be forgotten again for a while, at least.

That sounds awful. O.o Even if I did like rooibos, I’d be effectively scared away. Give me the choice between tea-that-tastes-like-coffee and straight up coffee, I’ll personally choose the straight up coffee.
@Angrboda, while I LOVE actual coffee, it’s great to have a close tea replacement. That’s also why I steep tea in coffee- I gotta get the health benefits:)
Ew that sounds pretty nasty – doubly so as I don’t like coffee. Fertilizer for the garden next spring maybe? I’ve heard tea makes good compost but I don’t know about rooibos.
@Jillian, yeah you’d have to like coffee:) I’m leary as to if my taste buds would think it’s coffeish cuz I can’t stand rooibos.
I use some of my left over tea leaves on the plants in my house. I just sprinkle the leaves on top of the soil. I don’t know if the plants like it…or if it is helping in any way….but hey, they aren’t dead!
