I honestly didn't expect this to perform as well as it did.  I drink tea all day, I love it.  Usually really high-end, whole-leaf stuff, because the flavor is phenomenal.  Whenever I buy pre-bagged, almost ground to a powder, premix teas from the discount supermarket, I really don't expect much beyond a vague flavor of cheap herb stems haphazardly mixed ingredients.  While the taste is really good and soothing, this was obviously purchased for its alleged medicinal properties.

And there it definitely delivers.  I have had insomnia since I was a young adolescent.  It often takes me 1-4 hours before I finally fall asleep, as my mind vividly ruminates the moment my head touches the pillow.  Melatonin and 5-HTP no longer work on me, and sleeping pills leave me with a groggy fogginess that I can't shake for 2 days, so I can't use them, either.  But this!  I can't even get halfway down my mug of this stuff without a sudden, overwhelming onset of drowsiness.  And the dreams!  Oh, the dreams!  They're so vivid and intense!  They're so close to being lucid, they may as well be!  And I can start the day without the groggy hangover of sleep pills.

Definitely worth the bucks!
