best coffee substituteMay 05, 2009
By J. Wang
"jyswang"
I really like this product. And I use it as a coffee substitute. Since I usually drink Japanese coffee or Vietnamese coffees, they are very strong coffees, and I had a few weeks of discomfort going off coffee.
The roastaroma is a really good coffee substitute. I like it very much, and if I let it brew for 8 minutes, I get a nice strong mug. To me, it tasted better than Postum.
I'm really happy that Celestial Seasonings make this :-)

A Mellow Mocha Masquerade!May 23, 2009
By Kerri Williamson A long-ago discovery for me, Roastaroma will always be a regular in my favorite teacups, alongside other Celestial Seasonings stars. Roasted barley and chicory combined with cocoa-copycat carob, hint of something similar to mocha for those who wish to avoid coffee and even chocolate; and the touches of cinnamon, allspice and star anise gives this brew an extra special lift. For those who wish to add a little cocoa to the mix before adding your brand of milk or cream to top it off, this perfect blend is a lovely pick-me-up any time of the day or night, and particularly throughout the cooler months when a warm cup of something special comforts the soul.

P.S. Amazon! Please bring back the 6-pack of these!

A yummy substitute for coffee and black tea.Sep 10, 2008
By Carrie I really like Roastaroma. It has a nice thick consistency, and while it doesn't taste like coffee, it's really good if you want to quit the caffeine roller-coaster. I was a black tea addict but decided to give it up for my health and weight. Roastaroma is very helpful.

Easier than finding a store that carries it...FOR SURE!Apr 12, 2008
By Michael Sullivan I looked all over town for this and no one is carrying it any more. I have NO idea why, because it is such a rich tea and a great alternative to coffee.
Vitaminlife sent this very quickly and I am happy!

Not coffee - more like Cinnamon TeaDec 15, 2009
By Cogito I purchased Roastaroma along with a number of other products, trying to find a substitute for coffee which, along with just about everything else I like, I can no longer consume. Some previous reviews have not been all that accurate, sorry to say. This is actually a tea which tastes nothing, repeat, nothing like coffee. It's more like a cinnamon tea, and a slightly strange tasting cinnamon tea at that. If like me, you are looking for a coffee substitute, I'd recommend Cafix or Caf-Lib. They are the best I've found so far, Cafix being the slightly better of the two. Do they taste like coffee, you ask? Well, they taste like an ok decaf. They work ok for me, because I like to use a liquid non-dairy sugar free creamer such as International Delight.
That these other products fall short of real coffee isn't that much of a surprise. Consider how even decaf coffees don't quite taste comparable to the real caffeinated products. If they can't get those to taste closer, then I can understand the challenge in trying to get chicory, dandelions etc to fit the bill.
