I liked this tea (and thankfully the other flavors helped to balance the red rooibos) and enjoyed the floral and fruity notes.

The packet had a wonderful orange and cream aroma. It had the perfect mixture of orange, cream, vanilla, rooibos, and chamomile. It had a nice orange cream desert tea taste.

This tea smells divine, but unfortunately I can only enjoy the aroma. I can't drink teas with chamomile due to allergies.

What a wonderful, round flavor! I love this tea with just a touch of local honey.

I you are a fan of Bigelow's Constant Comment, then you will enjoy this tea.
The dry tea gives a creamsicle scent. Once brewed, I mostly smelled the orange notes.
It took several sips along with long contemplation before I could pinpoint what this reminds me of. At first I thought maybe earl grey, but the citrus is far more pronounced than the various earl greys that I have tasted. Then I realized that the orange along with the earthy notes from the rooibos gives a flavor profile that is very similar to Constant Comment.
As this is an oolong and rooibos base, Leo is lighter when it comes to the astringent tannin factor. At this point, I think I prefer Leo more.
Brewed 4 minutes at 212F

A vanilla-orange flavored oolong tea that is quite delicious and lower in caffeine. What’s not to love?

Chamomile and rooibos make great partners in this blend. The oolong tea adds a rich, smooth base. The orange flavor isn't overpowering, but the vanilla intensifies as it cools. Nice balance of flavors.

I really like this one. A warm flavor with no spice. The chamomile does come through though, so if you're not a fan of that, then maybe avoid this one.

It smells kind of like candied oranges, sweet like orange and cream candies. brewing it mellows it out. Leos are ruled by the Sun and what better representation than the Sunshine fruit of orange.

Very nice orange vanilla tea. I like that it is low caffeine. I added a little undweetened vanilla almond milk and a tiny bit of stevia.

Top notch tea for anyone who loves oranges. Like a candied orange, it blends well with the oolong and compliments it.
