 Yummy vanilla flavor! Plus decaf!Mar 17, 2006
By Snowbrocade
I was pleasantly surprised by this rich flavorful tea. Some vanilla teas are thin and sickly in flavor--not this one! Celestial Seasoning has managed to make a sweet--not cloying--rich tea mixture that brews up to a fragrant, comforting and enjoyable cup of tea--I add cream to round out the flavor.
Rooibos is the base for this tea. It is a healthy alternative to black teas because it is naturally caffeine-free and loaded with antioxidants--as much as green tea. You can brew this tea for a long time and it will not get bitter because there are no tannins.
Celestial Seasonings gets extra points for their packaging: they utilize 100% natural recycled paperboard in their boxes and they don't package each tea bag individually. Instead they use a system of a waxed paper bag inside the box that stays shut when you fold it. It keeps the bags fresh and utilizes less packaging than individually wrapping each bag. The art they use on each box is beautiful as are the quotes and information they put on every surface.

 Homemade vanilla frosting, just like Grandma madeFeb 13, 2007
By Lisa Rivera

WOW ! I found myself "tasting" a sugar cookie with vanilla frosting. The vanilla flavor is genuine and truly delicious,the color is pretty as well. After the second cup, I believe that I can make the switch from coffee to tea. Celestial Seasonings have outdone themselves !

GreatDec 09, 2006

I'm no tea expert, but I had to write a review because this is my favorite. I can't find it in local stores anymore, so I recently bought directly through Celstial Seasonings, but now I know Amazon has it for such a great price, so this is where I'll be getting it from. It has a great taste, I love the Vanilla flavor.

Family favoriteFeb 06, 2008
By H. Davis
I first tried this tea as a free trial packet in a box of chamomile. (The Madagascar Red box never quite attracted me in the grocery store, as I assumed the red box meant it had a spicy or tart taste). This tea has a rich warm vanilla flavor, and it is not acidic (great alternative to black teas for those with sensitive stomachs - like me).
2 months ago I started making entire pots of the tea, and our kids (ages 6 and 9) were immediately attracted to the scent. They asked for cups, and have since become regular tea drinkers - specifically for this tea.
Of course, just as our family fell in love with the tea, our local grocery store stopped carrying it. So glad to see it on Amazon - and at a better price than the grocery store charged.

A Splendid Tea, Fit For The King Of BeastsOct 23, 2007
By J. H. Minde
"Everything I need is right here"
South African Red Rooibos tea, like all "red teas" isn't really a tea at all, but is made from a tealike shrub.
Never mind the technical aspects of tea cultivation . . .
I bought this tea on a lark---I liked the easygoing look of the teacup-holding lion on the box. Not really the best grounds for picking a tea, but in this case it worked.
When steeped, the tea takes on a distinctive reddishness, with hints of fruitiness underlying a definite but undemanding soft vanilla flavor against tongue and palate, which is a perfect relaxant, especially when you ensconce yourself in a comfortable chair before the fireplace at the end of a workday (a light misty rainfall is optional for mood), and sip contentedly while reading your latest Amazon.com selection.
