I do enjoy this tea very much. The apple flavor really comes out. Only wish the caramel flavors popped a bit more. I’m new to teas so what do I know LOL!

Captures the sweetness of a candy apple but it's grounded with the tea. It's a very nice autumn tea. Try mixing it with a chai. The combo is really delicious!!

The apple really comes through, and the caramel notes sell it. Like being at a carnival, walking around munching on a candied apple.

This is very good as an iced tea. It's just fruity and bold enough not to be overbearing. It's a great tea to try if you want something a bit different.

★★★★★

This is very much like a candy apple in a cup of black tea. The apple pieces really add a natural apple flavor. Of the Wicked blends, this was my least favorite and I still bought a bag of it.

My husband likes this one brewed a little strong, then iced to perfection. It is ok hot, but iced is definitely where this one shines.

★★★★☆

This Tea is really good, the aroma is like a candy apple and the taste is very close, there seems to be lots of caramel flavor in this tea which is super tasty, we like it.

Hands down my favorite tea ever. The apple flavor is amazing- add honey for the perfect “candied” taste to it. I have this most nights before bed. (Fair warning I have the kind of ADHD where a small amount of stimulants, like caffeine, helps me get to sleep.)

Absolutely delicious, threw in a dash of milk and it’s was heavenly. Such a good deep tea with wonderful apple flavors!

This is a pretty good tea but a little artificially sweet for me. I get that it's a candy apple but it's a little too candy and not enough apple.

Tastes a lot like apple but I'm not getting the candy flavor. It tasted rich with their classic black tea but I was hoping for a fuller flavor.

Excellent dessert tea. It nails the candy apple flavor. Great hot or iced and provides a nice amount of caffeine to get you going. Highly recommended.

★★★★★

I really love the balance of flavors in this. The apple balances nicely with the sweetness without being too sweet.

Loved this tea, I swear they never disappoint, a must try!

I really enjoyed each sip, as it was still hot... like the aroma, it embodies a candy apple! As the tea cooled, it had a background bitterness that isn't my favorite

Sampled as part of the CommuniTea. It was okay hot. I don’t think I like candy flavor - just too artificial. However I let it cool down too much while doing something else and found I really dislike it cold - too bitter.

This one is pretty tasty. The sweet apple flavor really comes out well and the black base is bold, but not overpowering. While I do like this one and I do think it is a good tea I withheld that fifth star as I really think it always feels like something is missing on its own, but it really brings some amazing flavor to fall blends. I think if the cinnamon was boosted just a bit I may be able to award that star, but as it is I feel the cinnamon isn't very present. Still a good tea and great as a blend component. 32° 4 min.

This is a tasty treat. It didn't require much additional sweetness to make it feel like a dessert drink, the apple was subtle with caramel standing out.

CommuniTEA sample: 3 min @ 195 F. I liked this one a lot more than I thought I would. I think the smell reminds me a lot of apples and cinnamon oatmeal, and I didn’t really get many caramel notes. It smells very sweet, but you can still taste the black tea, which is the tiniest bit bitter. It does feel like it has a heavier body than most Ceylon black tea! I managed to get two infusions out of it.

This is such a fun blend! When I opened the pouch, I immediately smelled the sourness of a granny-smith apple. It is really easy to over-steep this one as I suspect I have. The caramel flavor is there, I just had to search for it a bit harder.

I love a good apple tea, apples are so good too. The caramel wasn't very strong but I could taste the apple so that was nice. This was actually pretty nice since I don't particularly like caramel

Good stuff with moderate caffeine. I made it by seeping 1.5 teaspoons of tea at 212 degrees for three minutes.

★★★★★

Very tasty tea. Tastes very much like a candy apple, and is perfect to kick off fall tea season.

Im not a caramel fan so was a bit nervous, but Adagio really pulled it through with this one. A great tasty treat for those times you're not sure what you want from your tea stash.

I thought this was very good but I'm not allowed to drink it at work as my coworker swears it smells like hypnotic which she has bad memories of.

★★★★☆

I'm not a big fan of the ceylon base, but I do really like the apple flavor. I think it'd make a good iced tea. A packet of Splenda makes the flavor pop.

Very nice dessert tea, strong apple flavor with a sweetness and light cinnamon after-taste. A nice occasional treat, but not something that I need to have on hand all the time

The smell of the tea leaves is strong which worried me at first, but after steeping it was pleasant and not overwhelming. The flavor was smooth without being to sweet.

Simple but nice flavor. More like a caramel apple than a candy one but that’s good with me

Great aroma, great flavor. Was a treat to take on walks in the fall or to orchards. Definitely gets you in the fall spirit.

★★★★★

This is not a subtle tea with a refined flavor. It is not a saffron apple tart, it's a caramel apple and wonderful for that. A bit of sugar and milk really amps it up. It's great for the season and well worth a medium bag purchase. Though unless you're serving multiple people, perhaps not a 16oz. It's mid-January, though, and I'm regretting nearly running out, so I would say the only wrong choice is to only get a sample. ;)

A common favorite in our home. Everyone loves it. Always buying this one

Good, but probably wouldn’t get again. It’s a nice apple with some depth to it— I guess that’s the caramel, though I couldn’t taste it individually. It kinda blended into the background. Reminds me of the Winter Candy Apple B&BW line, in a good way.

I sampled as part of the CommuniTEA. I would have liked a stronger apple and caramel flavor. It was just a bit muddled for me.

Apple tasting black tea. I did not get a caramel flavor. There was a sweetness but no creaminess. This may be my fault as I steeped 3 minutes longer than recommended. An enjoyable cup all in all. Perhaps I should have added cream.

This turned out quite nice. I steeped it for 3 mins at 170F and it seemed to bring out more of the candy apple flavor opposed to the black tea bitterness.

It smells like a sweetened apple amd taste like a lighter version of the smell. Black tea with some sort of apple essence. Not as exciting as I would have hoped, but a fine tea.

I'm not usually a fan of apple drinks, but this was nicely balanced between the apple, caramel, and black tea. Brewed at 212 for 6 min with 1 packet of Splenda.

This tea is alright! The smell is divine but in the cup, the flavors are muted and it mostly tastes like black tea with a slight apple aftertaste. I’m not getting any caramel at all!
