Uh oh.
I’m pretty sure I hate rooibos. I couldn’t even finish this cup. I remember specifically not liking one sort of medicinal aspect of birthday cake by dt, and the very thing I didn’t like was glaringly present in this one—I can only conclude that it’s the rooibos. I hate the way it forcefully plows its way through any attempt at flavouring, obliterating any attempt by the tea maker to give the tea any flavouring other than that gross medicinal taste. It didn’t even matter if I added cream or sugar; this tea could not be saved. Eww eww eww.
I’m glad i don’t do numeric ratings. Not only is the rating system inaccessible, it also just wouldn’t be fair or accurate in this case, because although I poured this down the drain, I think I’ve come to hate rooibos and thus can’t really be objective. Why be objective though, anyway? it’s my mouth that tea is going into LOL. I’m just saying though that I don’t want to rate it poorly, because given that it’s a flavoured rooibos, it might be quite well done, but I’m not the person to be asking.

I’m really not into rooibos right now either; I have no idea why. I have a few to write notes for, and I keep postponing it…
I hate rooibos as well :(
Yeah, I was afraid that this might happen. Dexter kindly sent me a few rooibos samples to try, so the jury isn’t entirely out yet, but it’s looking more and more likely that I’ll find myself in the rooibos hating camp, sadly.
I’m glad I threw in a few samples of other types. :)) Hopefully you will find something you like in the package. Even if you do hate rooibos, at lease you found out without buying several and then having them in your cupboard….
I’m terrifyingly allergic to rooibos and it’s relatives honeybush and licorice. All are in the legume family in case you feel unwell when you drink the tea, aside from disliking the taste.
