A taste reminiscent of the carnival favorite with sweet caramel and fresh apple notes.

I wanted this to be just like the Caramel Apple custom blend Teavana used to sell and discontinued long ago. I can't seem to recreate that exact taste. A little Splenda and Cream and I came very close to that perfection. Great cup of tea. I will buy again.
this was a delicious tea, I would definitely recommend.
I love any teat that has apples. This is no different. oh so good.
Tastes a bit artificial, but still enjoyable! Tastes more like one of those candle apple suckers.
The apple flavor is a little too subtle and artificial tasting but a decent fall blend.
This tea is fine. It tasted on the chocolatey side to me. My boyfriend said he tasted the caramel, but it felt strange to me. I definitely didn't get the apple flavor as much as I had hoped, but it was fine.
This was a fun blend that my husband and I both appreciated. A little sweetener really brought out the fall flavors.
This tea tastes really good, it's not my favorite but I was really surprised by the strong apple taste. I'm more into spiced teas, but this is still a really good tea.
Absolutely delicious! 110% would buy again!
Tastes decent. Very light flavoring on it but a stronger aftertaste.
Bitter and has no candy apple flavor at all. Tried brewing at different temps and times but got the same result every time.
Very tasty & smooth ! Great anytime really, but especially as a dessert tea, or iced ! No need for sugar !
Delicious fall flavor. Perfect for the changing season.
Coworker thinks it tastes like pancakes with maple syrup
True to it’s name, it’s got a sweet apple flavor with a hint of spice.
The aroma is stronger than the flavor, which suits this flavor best, I think. It's pleasant & festive. It's one I will be keeping around for fall.
Reminds me of being at the county fair! The smell alone is incredible. Wonderful when enhanced with just a little honey. I can tell this will be a fall favorite.
Not bad! Good iced — did not try hot. Will repurchase and try again in the fall. The smell was a little overpowering and artificial, but once brewed it mellowed nicely and created a sweet, slightly spicy, very cozy drink.
Love love love this amazing tea! This tea in comparison with other black teas is sort of like candied pear preserves compared to fresh pears. Sometimes you just want something over the top.
Sweet and tart just like a candy apple tea should be!
This tea could be helped by blending it with others, but I don t like it on it s own. The flavors are muddled, the caramel cancelling out any notable tart apple, and the apple sours what could otherwise be a pleasantly sweet, rich black tea. Might use the sample I got for blending experiments, but I don t foresee buying more.
This flavor is delicious. I have no idea how they get it to taste just like a candy apple without it being over powering, but it s awesome.
A great holiday tea. Perfect on a cold, winter morning!
VERY good tea, but didn't get much apple flavor. Other than that I would highly recommend it.
This tea has a very light taste. The caramel comes through to the front, while the apple takes backseat, but it is still very enjoyable!
I expected this to be tart and sweet and was disappointed in how mellow it was.
This tea was nice. It definitely reminded me of candy apple.
Not super sweet or sour like apple teas can be, still rich but a little bitter, you have to be careful not to oversteep.
Mixes well with a nice cinnamon blend, or by itself, depending on your mood. I even had a glass with creamer and fireball, to which I will admit is a dangerous combo because it is that damn good.
Candy apply is my favorite. I didn t expect this flavor profile. It is very flavorful and will curve a sweet tooth in a cup. Don t leave it in too long.
This tea is very interesting. It is so sweet in flavour, but still needs a little bit of honey to bring out it s actual sweetness, if that makes any sense. It tastes of sweetness without actually being sweet. With a tiny bit of honey, this tea is so yummy. The caramel flavour is a bit overwhelming, but the apple flavour comes through a lot more on the second steep. Very interesting tea, I am glad to have tried it.
By itself, I don't recommend. It's caramelly but the apple didn't transfer over.
BUT!
Add with other black teas! It makes a FANTASTIC caramel tone to any tea(I tried pu erh Tahiti and was happily surprised me
I do not like this one. It’s overwhelmingly caramel. I can’t even mix it with another tea without it being overwhelmed with caramel. Good maybe for a starter tea, but definitely NOT for me
loved this sample. So happy that it also comes in teabags and just loose tea.
I tried this as part of a Christmas sampler and really loved it. When I ordered more teabags, somehow they aren't quite as good. I still like it, though, and I don't think it has that artificial flavor that some fruity teas do.
So disappointed. It Smells amazing but tastes nothing like candy apple, unfortunately.
Bright and full of Apple flavors... If you like a sweeter tea this is it!
A personal favorite of mine and my children. The taste is exquisite and takes you back to fun times of eating candy apples.
The tea is delicious! And it smells wonderful. More apple than candy.
This was a pretty good tea, it tasted a bit artificial, though. I think the candy flavor kind of overpowers the apple flavor.
It's okay, it's not my favorite, and it's not something I probably will ever order again, but if you like spiced apple tastes, it is your tea. I tried it hot, warm, iced, and nothing rang with my heart.
A good amount of sweetness, not too overpowering.
Tastes extremely artificial and un-natural.
Though it does taste exactly like a candy apple.
I'm not sure I can go so far as to call this tea 'bad', but it's barely acceptable. The flavor tastes completely artificial, albeit fairly subtle. There are far better choices out there, and I'd find it hard to find any reason to suggest this one.
Perfectly dark and sweet, a fall/holiday favorite.
I ve really enjoyed this tea, it s a tangy appley tea that has a bit of sweetness to it, it s pretty good.
This one smells delicious, but it has an odd, sharp flavor that oddly makes it less sweet than the sour apple tea.
Update: milk helps smooth it over a little, but I still don't think this is the best of the apple teas.
Gentle apple taste with the hint of caramel as a sweetener. Not necessarily the most robust flavour, but gentle and decidedly not juice, not just black tea. Bit of a tannin-y finish, but not overwhelming.
On update, when you brew the tea for the right length of time (hey, who knew?), the tannin-y finish disappears and this has become one of my favorite fruity, slightly sweet, winter-y treats.
I like this flavor. It’s Apple and something between caramel and candy flavoring. It’s good on its own, but I like it blended with cream tea or apple chai
Great taste of apple and candy...As usual the smell gets me... :)
