Golden Moon Organic Rooibos Tea

Yes, and that's one of the standout features customers mention most. The tea has a naturally sweet quality with earthy and spicy notes (think cardamom, ginger, cinnamon, and cloves) that makes it enjoyable on its own. Multiple reviewers specifically note they don't need to add any sweeteners, which is a nice bonus for anyone watching their sugar intake.

Just 2 scoops will give you a full-bodied, flavorful cup. This is actually quite forgiving for a loose leaf tea—you don't need to be super precise to get good results. The tea brews a strong flavor in a relatively short steeping time, so it's beginner-friendly while still giving enthusiasts the control they want from loose leaf.

It works well both ways. Several customers mention using it for iced tea with great results, and the robust, naturally sweet flavor holds up nicely when chilled. The spicy notes also make it interesting to experiment with—some people use it as a base for chai-style preparations, adding milk and sweetener.

Most customers report high-quality loose leaf with great taste and aroma. That said, there have been occasional reports of batches with too many stems or inconsistent flavor—one person mentioned no aroma or taste, which suggests possible quality control variation. The vast majority find it smooth, earthy, and full-bodied, but if you happen to get a disappointing batch, it's worth reaching out to the seller.

Generally no—rooibos is naturally caffeine-free and doesn't have the tannins that make black or green tea bitter when over-steeped. Most reviewers note the smooth, non-bitter taste. One person did mention a bitter aftertaste, but that seems to be an outlier. Overall, it's a very forgiving tea for beginners who might not have steeping times down perfectly yet.

The tin is labeled for 30 servings, and since you only need about 2 scoops per cup, you'll get solid value from it. Several reviewers specifically mention the large quantity as a positive, especially given the quality. If you're a daily rooibos drinker, this should last you about a month.
