I absolutely love this tea. I first bought it in individual pouches, but bought it loose and it is every bit as good in both forms. The only thing that could make this tea better would be to go on sale more often! :)
I am not usually big on herbal teas, but this tea is full-bodied and flavorful and is a definite must-try for anyone looking for a caffeine-free tea treat!

I love this Rooibos blend and think it is one of the very best I've ever tried. I'd highly recommend it to first-time Rooibos drinkers. You cannot go wrong!

I have tried other Rooibos, even some from Harney's (my favorite teas), and this has been the best. I have been refering other to it. Such a wonderful flavor and smell. I drink it in the evening when I don't want caffeine.

the thing that's good about this tea, is that it has a nice aroma, it's just that the taste is a let down. African Nectar could use a mellower less floral flavor palette.

I gave this to a caffeine conscious friend, who had previously said that rooibos was 'weird'. This tea changed her mind - and then she made me a cup, and I regretted having given it to her. And went back and bought a packet for myself.

This is a different tea. It comes on softer than most and fills in nicely. Not at all bitter. Not everybody will like it, but its awfully popular in Africa.

This tea was served to me in a restaurant, and I liked it so much that I copied down the name and ordered it directly from Mighty Leaf to enjoy at home. If you're tired of wimpy herbal teas, you'll appreciate the heartiness of this tea. It steeps quickly to a rich, dark color. Delicious.

African Nectar embraces the tea drinker with its protective fruity infusion. Its antioxidant-rich medium body provides for a refreshing and healthful experience. This herbal soother provides the satisfaction of caffinated tea without inducing highs or lows. Perfect for anyone, at any time!

With all of the rooibos I have drank in my 23 years of existence (ok, I didn't start drinking rooibos until I was 21 or so), I have never quite found one even remotely similar to the African Nectar. I absolutely am NOT a fan of tropical, tart, fruity tastes, nor am I a huge fan of flowery tastes, but this is a perfect combination of so many different flavors...it is totally invigorating and wonderful, and anyone who enjoys rooibos should try at least a small cup of this. As an added bonus, it is an absolutely beautiful looking tea.
All of the flavors involved in this blend -- the fruit, the flowers, and whatever other crazy ingredients, combine perfectly, with the soft, sweet rooibos taste behind them. I have nothing but great things to say about African Nectar -- it wows me every single time I drink it, and I finally bought a huge 4 oz. bag. Seriously...if you like rooibos, this should be #1 on your wishlist.

I've tried other brands, but this is my favorite Rooibus tea. The only thing I do not love about this tea is the name "African Nectar." I teach about African topics at a University and the name is somewhat primitivizing.

I first had this tea in an up-scale tea shop. The colors, flavor, aroma and the fact that it is herbal all add to the beauty of this tea. I was excited to have the chance to purchase this online and have it all the time. I have introduced it to my friends and co-workers who love it also. I had been a coffee drinker only, but your tea has changed my ways!

This is the best tea I've ever had, decaf or not. I brew it daily for iced tea and am 100% happy with it. I can't imagine finding a tea I like better than this. You would never know it's decaf because the flavor is so full.

African Nectar was the very first tea from Mighty Leaf I've tried. That was about 5 years ago. I became a big fan. The rest is a history. African Nectar is absolutely great. The flavor is very unique. It is definitely much better that pure Roibus - more interesting, flavorful and satisfying. I'm not even getting into all the health benefits...
Big flavor and good for you, too.
