Bourbon Vanilla Rooibos
Not all vanilla extracts are created equally, nor taste the same. Our chief Tea Sommelier spent a great deal of time, exploring & tasting what was available for vanilla Rooibos tisanes. The result was most always a let down. So when we decided to create our own version of this super popular tisane, we chose the Madagascar Bourbon varietal vanilla bean. We soaked the rooibos in this for an extended time, cupped it, and were ecstatic with the results. We feel we’ve created one of the best Bourbon Vanilla Rooibos tisanes available, and our long list of customers agree with us!

Best Oak Aroma and Cognac Flavor with a mild taste of vanilla. Tried it at Rocky Mountain Flatbread while on vacation and I had to buy a tin. I had it with shot of milk and a teaspoon of sugar. The aroma is welcoming and the flavor will have you drinking cup after cup.
Jack –
good on its own and also good with a little milk and sweetner.
Karen –
Add milk and enjoy a dessert-like drink. Perfect before bed.

I love a great cup of coffee with the perfect amount of crema. That said, I can’t stop raving about this delicious tea. I discovered it at a local restaurant while visiting my sister in Squamish. Now, I will literally drive from Vancouver to buy it!

This tea smells divine and tastes completely of warm, bourbon-y goodness! If you like rooibos I would highly recommend it. It is a perfect tea any time of day or night.

Our new favorite evening tea! I had to order more when my wife polished off the small bag i had stashed in the herbal section (without telling me, tsk tsk). Now its a pleasant nightly ritual!

Another great tea by my favourite Tea Guy!! When I’m not in the mood for black tea, this one is an easy choice. I love the bourbon scent, and the rich rooibos splashed with vanilla. I drink it alone, and have also had it as a hot toddy, (both scotch and whiskey are a nice addition) in the dark winter evenings. YUM!

It is the best blend of vanilla and Bourbon which delight my senses! I enjoy as a dessert tea and a comfort drink anytime of the day. I really like adding a small amount of rooibos blood orange with it to make a creamy vanilla orangesicle flavour.
