Tastes Like: vanilla, ruby grapefruit, mint, clover honey
Feels Like: ethereal noise pop

This blend is a dazzling synesthetic experience where sound is like temperature and color has flavor. Warm and cool sensations move in textured rhythms. The tastes and scents wind and twist like shifting colors of an opal. With each sip, there is a dreamy dominant note. One moment, it’s pale yellow vanilla, then another, electric pink grapefruit. Another sip has bluish green mint, then brick-red earthy rooibos. Beauty is not always linear.

A tea for lovers of unusual herbal blends.

Send help

I want to preface by saying that I have tried several varieties and August Uncommon has a permanent place in my heart. Almost all of the ones I've tried have been excellent, with one exception. This is that exception. What an odd combination, and for a rooibus? If I squint, I could see this with a green tea base maybe, but genuinely, how does one come up with something like this? Can guarantee you won't ever taste any tea like this one, and I hope I never meet it again.

I don't want you to think I hate their tea so I want to clarify again that it's JUST this one that I really really dislike.

What a surprise for the tastebuds!

Though the flavour complex seemed diverse to the extremes and random in selection, they surprisingly go quite well together! It makes an excellent iced tea! It is a bit of an acquired taster though!

Really Tasty!

Cocteau- Vanilla Grapefruit Mint Rooibos Tea is a really nice blend. Nothing overpowers the other flavors.

It's a great tea for evening wind down as it's caffeine free.

Discordant and interesting to try

I couldn’t quite figure out what did not work for me. I really liked the grapefruit flavor, but the combination with vanilla, and mint didn’t work - too jangly! I’m not sure what I would’ve dropped or added to make it all come together, but I did think about it for a long time. Having said that, this is fun to try if you’re an adventurous tea drinker.
