I think this one is best when it's blended with other teas (almond, chestnut, vanilla, or cream work well), but I do like having it around at Christmas.

Maybe I was expecting too much from this one but I was pretty disappointed. I didn't taste much of the chocolate or caramel flavour, just a sort of subtle and vaguely nutty one.

Smells great, taste is great, but like most of the rooibos/honeybush options I always have to use a lot of the dry tea to get the flavour I want. Definitely will order more, this is one of the ones that people actually request when they visit.

Smells very very strongly of pineapple, it's fine but not really the taste of dragon fruit I was hoping for.

Smells wonderful. Maple isn't necessarily always my favourite flavour, but this has a nice subtle taste, not too overpowering and artificial. Definitely more maple in the smell than the actual flavour though.

This may be my new all-time favourite. I got it as a sample before it was available all the time and I was so sad when I finished the little bag. Very very happy to see it added.

The vanilla and cream flavours mellow out the bergamot which I think is quite nice. If I m in the mood for earl grey this is the one I d reach for.

This is the tea of my dreams. Hazelnut? Cinnamon? Decaf?! Everything I could ask for. I didn't even bother with the sample size this time, just went with the full bag and I don't regret it. Flavours work together perfectly, none of them overpower the others.

Good vanilla flavour, and sweet enough that it definitely doesn't need any sugar. I usually prefer to blend this with other teas, but occasionally I like just a little cup of this on its own. - I've updated this review to 5 stars because before I wasn't sure about it on its own as something I'd want every day since I thought it was a bit strong, but now it's a favourite of mine and I drink it very often.

It isn t distinctly chocolate/strawberry to me, but I really do enjoy the taste anyway.

Exactly what you d expect and hope for. The blueberry smell is very strong, but the taste isn t overpowering.

Really great watermelon taste, and not at all watery or bitter like some herbals sometimes are.

Great balance between the lavender taste and the earl grey base.

I've only used this to blend with some others like chestnut and cream to add a little spice which it was great for, but haven't tried it on its own yet so I will update my review later.

Smells wonderful, with a refreshing and smooth peach taste. One of my favourites.

I love rooibos caramel, and the hazelnut/chestnut teas that are available, so it's no surprise to me that I loved this as well.

It smells great and it tastes pretty good, but I wish there was more of a prominent pumpkin flavour. A nice fall chai still.

The cinnamon flavour is a bit overpowering, and slightly more like cinnamon hearts than cinnamon to me, but I'm going to try some different steep times and then probably update my review.

I can't seem to figure out how to cold brew these things properly, and it always comes out just like very bitter water. I've got a couple left though so I'll try again once the weather warms up.

Can be a little bitter on its own, but fantastic in blends.

The smell at first was very overpowering and a little off-putting to me but once I got past that and tried it I really enjoyed it. I find the toasty coconut flavour is mostly in the aftertaste, but it's very pleasant. I need to be very careful with the steeping time though, otherwise it can get pretty bitter.

The balance between the strawberry flavour and the flavour of the tea is very good with neither overpowering the other. It's a good, dependable decaf to have around and I will be ordering this again.

Strong grapefruit scent with a more mild grapefruit flavour. Pairs really well with the oolong.

Similar hazelnut taste to the black tea hazelnut, which is what I was hoping for. The honeybush compliments the hazelnut without overpowering it like in some of the other honeybush flavours I've tried. One of my favourites!

Lightly spicy, and the apple is sweet and subtle. None of the flavours are overpowering, just a great easy-drinking fall tea. I'm sure I'll be reordering this seasonally.

I just can't seem to like this one on its own. I've used it in certain blends that came out really well, but the smell of this by itself just puts me off.

I like this on its own just fine, but it's fantastic in blends, and I'll be reordering a big bag solely for that purpose.

This was the first pu erh I ever tried, and I expected to completely love it because chocolate/strawberry/hazelnut seemed like a perfect combination and I like strong teas, but it wasn't really love-at-first-sip. The earthy taste and smell was so much stronger than I expected, and it took some getting used to (as well as some steep time adjusting). I'm happy I didn't just write it off because after having a couple more cups I did quite enjoy it, and though it's not the kind of tea for me that I want every day, it is nice on occasion.

A great light blueberry taste that pairs perfectly with the green rooibos.

I originally tried this in the chai sampler and wasn't that impressed. It was a good tea, but I wanted a more pronounced chocolate flavour. I wasn't planning on reordering but by the end of the bag it really grew on me and I ended up ordering a bigger size. It's a nice mellow, slightly sweet chai that I could drink every day. Even though it still doesn't really taste super chocolatey to me, it does tend to curb the chocolate cravings. I find it's best mixed with some of the cream tea.

Great smooth caramel flavour, not bitter or overpowering. Doesn't need any sugar to make a great dessert tea. A definite favourite of mine.

Pretty similar to the chestnut tea (another one of my favourites!) but smoother, less astringent, and overall just a bit more mellow.

I had a little trouble with this one and it took some time to get the proper amounts, ratio, and steep times without it becoming super bitter, but I love it in blends so I was determined to get it right. When I did I really enjoyed it so I'm glad I persisted.

I was surprised by this one as a lot of the comments mention how light/weak the flavour is, but I found it actually very strong. The first time I made it I did the recommended 2 teaspoons per cup at 5 mins. It was nice at first, (and very strong) but by the end it had a bitter taste and made a horrible feeling in my mouth. I'm happy I tried it again though because with less tea per cup and a shorter steep time I really liked it. Very excited to try it iced this summer.

Exactly what I'd hoped it would taste like based on the great reviews. I'll definitely be keeping a bunch of this tea in the house during the holidays from now on. It's great on its own, but to really go all out I like to make it with a cinnamon stick, a tiiiiny amount of brown sugar, and a wee bit of some kind of milk.

Solid chai, biggest plus for this over others offered is that it's caffeine free. I haven't tried the decaf black chai but I really like this one so I'll probably just stick with it.

Pretty similar to green tea but smoother and sweeter. I prefer this for the flavour and because it's caffeine free. A good everyday anytime sort of cup for me. Great on its own or mixed with some of the fruity herbals. Haven't tried it iced yet but I think it would be fantastic.

I didn't get much of a chocolate flavour at all from this though I still did quite like the taste, I just probably won't order it again and keep my fingers crossed they'll make a black decaf chocolate tea.

I bought this for someone else as I'm not always the biggest citrus/grapefruit person. She said it smelled amazing and just like grapefruit, and that the taste was good, but more vaguely 'citrus' flavoured than outright grapefruit, though she still enjoyed it very much.

This is my favourite vanilla tea. I find the other varieties are a bit too strong on their own for my personal preference but the vanilla oolong has the perfect amount of sweet and smooth vanilla flavour.
|

Definitely a favourite of mine, I think I'll only be buying it in the largest size from now on. Great on its own or in blends, and works well hot or iced.

I get mostly a butterscotch scent and flavour which I do like, but I hoped for more of the chocolate taste to come through. I'm going to order more even if it's not my personal favourite because it tends to be a big crowd pleaser when I make it for other people.

The first time I made some (following the instructions on the bag) I was not a fan and found it pretty watery. The second time I doubled the amount of the dry tea per cup of water and it was really very good.
