rooibos mango

type: herbal

origin: south africa rooibos

caffeine: no-caffeine

price level: $$$$

A lush, fruity and mellow cup of caffeine free goodness. The tropical aroma pairs perfectly with the naturally sweet organic rooibos. Delicate deep fruity notes from the rooibos, against the creamy texture and floral nose of the mango. Juicy and soft, dry finish. A lovely tropical escape any time of day, or season! Steep at 212°F for 5 minutes

      I'm a fan of rooibos and usually like it better iced, so I cold brewed this overnight. I can't say the flavor is very mango, but I liked it. No additions.

      I wasn't sure I would enjoy this flavored rooibos as i don't really like mango flavored black teas. But, this sweet flavor of mango really works well with the rooibos. I'm picky about what red rooibos I enjoy....and this one is really good!

      I tried this through the CommuniTEA sample, and I'm not a fan of rooibos. I couldn't really taste the mango either. This might be better cold brewed and with some sugar.

      Love mango? Love rooibos? You'll love them fused together. It's a thick, creamy blend of mellow citrus with a blush of beach blossoms drifting in on the floral breeze. Juicy, sweet, and positively refreshing served cold--but can also be enjoyed warm and cozy in the evenings!

      This tea was cold brewed overnight and had strong medicinal and mango flavors that I found were not a great combination together. It was still a refreshing tea.

      This tea has a strong red rooibos flavor and a faint hint of mango. It’s great for rooibos lovers!

      I'm undecided about my feelings for red rooibos, so my review should be taken with that in mind. The smell is very medicinal, but once sweetened it wasn't bad so to speak but also not spectacular. I didn't get much mango flavor even with sweetener to try to bring it out, but maybe it's subtle and blended in with the rooibos flavor. Overall, I wouldn't buy this myself or ask for it if other options were available, but I finished the cup.

      I generally am not a huge fan of red rooibos, but I am going through the whole adagio catalog, and have been surprised sometimes. I love mango, so i had high hopes for this. Ala, it's kind of astringent and a bit rotten tasting, like rotting fruit. not really mango. I may have had a bad batch, but this wasn't very good in the sample I tried.

    • 

      No no no. This was a hot mess. I didn’t taste any fruit at all and what I did taste was awful. Not even sugar helped.

      I'm honestly not sure how people actually enjoy rooibos, as it is just intolerable to me. This is as bad as any I've tried . It has the same rotton/rancid rooibos flavor. My kids liked this, so that's good, but I didn't.

      Just tastes like olives (which is almost always what rooibos tastes to me) with very little mango. If it had tasted more strongly of mango it would be recommendable but in it's current form it is not.

    • 

      I really liked this tea; however, it wasn't very mango. The flavor was rooibos and generic "fruit." Nonetheless, it was quite tasty and went very well with butter cookies.

    • 

      When dry, this has the usual Rooibos scent - woody, a little medicinal - as well as a faint sweet fruity scent.

      When I started steeping it a beautiful red color bloomed.

      This tea doesn't really shine when hot - even the rooibos flavor is faint. Once it's cooled a bit the woody sweet roobios becomes more prominent, and a bit of the mango starts to come through as well.

      I love drinking this tea iced, at that point the fruit flavor seems to be at it's strongest, especially with the addition of a sweetener.

      This was pretty much rooibos, but worse. Very poor rooibos taste, disliked / downvoted.

    • 

      Too medicinal in taste for me and not enough mango to cover the flavor of the rooibos. Glad to have tried it to find out it is not for me.

      Very good tea. The mango gives a nice kick of flavor without the worry of caffeine when enjoying late at night.

    • 

      The mango flavor here is good, but the rooibos overwhelms it and makes everything taste a bit woody.

      i love Roobis, but i dont like the mango, im not a fan of the fruitys. but thats on me.

      initially i was all for caffeine in teas, but lately am enjoying the mellow of no -caffeine rooibos

      Very artificial flavor, does not go really well with rooibos. Earthy vs fruity, not a good combo

    • 

      I prefer the Mango Iced tea to this one, but it's still got a nice flavor.

    • 

      Rooibos is very astringent and an added flavoring must be able to balance that out. The mango did not do that

    • 

      This is similar to the rooibos peach, but it seems less flavorful. I also can't tell that this is mango flavor - the flavor is a lot like the peach. Was hoping for something closer to a true mango flavor.
