Review (3/5): Most Of The Effort Was Put Into The Packaging
The Sleep Welle Natural Calming Tea by WelleCo put a lot of effort into the presentation to reflect a high end product. The price also reflects that at $68.50 for 50 tea bags. The packaging was nice, but I didn’t think it was THAT nice. The canister is unique, but I expected something heavier and more substantial for the price.
The flavor of the tea is nice, but doesn’t seem anything particularly special. I’m having to use two tea bags for an 8 oz. cup for it to be strong enough to really taste. I had some sweetener and it is a pleasant cup of tea. I don’t feel like it helps me sleep, but I make it the afternoons for a relaxing break. But having to use two tea bags makes the pricing even more ridiculous, since I will only get 25 cups of tea from it (not even a whole month’s worth at 1 cup/day).
A word of advice: don’t give up on it when you open the container and smell it. It smelled not so pleasant to me. But I was game, and still gave it a try. It definitely smells a whole lot better than it smells! It also smells much better once it’s brewed.
Honestly, I can’t find anything to justify the cost. It does taste nice brewing it with two bags. I’m just not living the lifestyle of spending over $100 for a month’s worth of tea.
