Negroni: Bittersweet Orange Rooibos Tea (Caffeine Free)

$13.75
Size

Tastes Like: orange marmalade, gentian, clover
Feels Like: an evening in florence

As the sun begins its descent beyond the horizon, everything takes on an inviting glow. The scent of warm oranges fills the air. Inspired by the classic Negroni cocktail, this bright rooibos strikes the perfect balance between sweet-tart orange and bitter gentian flavor. The first sip is sweet and rich, with a slippery finish and dark honey flavor. Bittersweet orange notes mingle with sweet rooibos earthiness. In the finish, there is a distinctly herbaceous flavor reminiscent of a clover field warmed by a summer day.

A tea for lovers of oranges and cocktails.

I really like the flavor but not a fan of "natural flavors".

Similar to the chamomile blend we purchased this has a funky chemical smell which I could not get over. I like be herbal blends really pure and organic. I did like the earthy and bitter flavors and even tried this cold.

August Uncommon Tea

Thank you for your honest review, Sara D. Flavoring is a delicious way to add depth and complexity to already delicious teas, which is why we use them in our blends. Natural flavors are just highly concentrated versions of the flavor compounds that naturally occur in foods. They’re highly regulated by the FDA and the EU. They contain no allergens, calories, heavy metals, or hazardous materials. They are also rigorously tested for safety. Please email our Customer Support team at hello@august.la for more information.

Complex

I find a lot of fruit-flavored teas too sweet, but not this one!. While I wouldn't say this actually tastes like a negroni, the gentian adds a wonderful complexity that's hard to find in non-alcoholic beverages.

Nice rooibos tea variation

I like the orange enhancement to the naturally tasty will be rooibos tea. It's wonderful that just a spoonful makes more than one cup and I love my new one cup diffuser!
