Candy Apple Customer Reviews

Opening the package made me think of fall. Tasting the tea was even better. The sweet flavour of candy mixed with the tartness of an apple made the tea all the more enjoyable.

Wow! I was not expecting something so close to a carmel apple in a cup. With a little sugar the apple is brought out and I can't wait to try this on a cold autumn day.

This is a nice fall tea. I find it difficult to taste the apple and it's a bit light, but a good flavor.

The apple flavor of this tea is a little subtle but great. I added a little more Carmel cuz I love it :)

The caramel flavor is great, but I sometimes find it hard to taste the apple.

Nice fall or cold morning cup of tea. Some hints of cinnamon. I'm just glad the cinnamon didn't over power it.

You have to really want the 'candy' part of the title for this tea to be your... cup of tea. Candy apple definitely does have a somewhat articial taste to it, but if you're interested in something quite candyish and sweet, it's a pretty interesting flavor. I enjoy the way each sip progresses from apple to something like brown sugar to a caramel finish. There might be some hints of cinnamon in there, too... It's sweet enough that I don't feel I need to add sugar, and the flavor is pleasantly variegated.

On the other hand, if Candy Apple is not your bag, Adagio has several other apple flavored teas that are all quite good: Apple black tea, Rooibos Cinnamon Apple, Sour Apple and Spiced Apple Chai. I enjoy all of the above.

This is a super tasty tea that I enjoy anytime of the day.

Very nice - like apple cider, but with a nice black-tea base. I don't like this quite as much as the rooibos cinnamon apple, and it's easy to oversteep, but still delicious.

Something sour-ish without tasting like sour apple, which I love. Was surprised I didn't like it. but frankly, I didn't.

Just the first smell when you open the bag is worth it! While it was brewing, my husband asked what smelled like candy.

Smells kinda odd. It has a weird after taste that I've noticed in a lot of the black teas.

It's not as sweet or as apple-y as I would like it to be, but sweet fancy Moses, is it ever tasty. And I didn't even have to bob for it.

Tart green apple and buttery caramel. Exactly as described! I've been searching for the perfect caramel apple tea, and this is it! It's almost like apple cider, but with that added caramel. Yum!

It's not bad--if I didn't know I was making tea I'd swear that there was apple cider right there in my teapot! There's something really off about the flavor, though. I can't pinpoint it but it's a kind of artificial, almost bitter taste, and I don't think that Id want to drink this often.

The tea smells great prior to steeping. However, the taste isn't so great. There's barely any apple taste too with slight cinnamon. I got this as a free sample. But, I don't think I'll finish it.

Smells really artificial in the bag. Tastes like a sweet apple. It's okay, but I'm not sure I'd buy it again.

It was ok. Not really really what I was expecting, But I'll finish the sample.

It's a nice blend of candy and apple, but doesn't replicate the mouth-watering goodness of a candied apple. It's more of a soft hint of candied apple. Great for lounging about.

This was a free sample, and I'm super excited it was. I really enjoyed it, it had a sweet flavor and the smell was wonderful.. it also had a bit of a bitter black tea finish like I enjoy. So thank you Adagio for the free sample!

Good flavor sweet enough on its own. No bitter after taste like a lot of black teas.

It has a nice apple flavour. And a good blend of spices. I tried some with the apple chai.

I wanted to like this tea, but I just couldn't. Too sweet even without any sugar. It lacked any flavor making it candy apple.

This tea did not taste like candy apples or any sort of apples. I found that it tasted slightly bitter and a little stale.

this was ok, a little chemically...i gave the rest to my mom!

This tea smells fantastic, and is pleasant to drink as well. However, it doesn't taste much like a candy apple to me. As another reviewer noted, I could see myself drinking this tea fairly often around fall or wintertime. Tried it with just a dash of milk and a very small amount of sugar, but next time I may try seeing if I prefer it with honey instead. I think in future I'll brew it a little stronger as well

I was expecting it t be more like candy than Cinnamon. Not my most favorite but wasn't the worst either. It actually good for winter though. I might buy it for winter.

The tea has a good taste, but I wish the apple flavor was a bit stronger. I taste the apple, but barely. Hot, I do taste the candy aspect, but cold not so much.

So delicious as an ice tea. It tastes more like the glaze on the candy apple than an actual apple but still good!

Thought I would give this a try, and I'm very glad I did. I think I found another favorite

Yummy yummy yummy I got love in my tummy yadda yadda. Awesome tea!!

I love this tea. It is awesome apple-y sweetness. It is basically my tea-replacement for having a pastry in the morning.

great fall flavor.. adding some turbinado sugar really brought out some more of the flavors that werent as bright on their own.

Too cloying for my taste but still a good tea for wintertime.

This tea does taste like candy apple. Though it has a weak flavor.

Smells much better than it tastes I think, but overall still pretty good. Even better sweetened with some honey.

This has to be my new favorite! Adding a touch of honey and cinnamon for a great dessert tea.

was not the kind of sweet I was expecting, so sugar (or some other sweetener) is a must for me personally. In all pretty good.

This has seriously been one of my absolute favorite teas from what I have bought from adagio. It's perfect for me, because I have a sweet tooth, and it's a naturally sweet tea. Almost like hot apple cider. Unf. Perfect.

It's definitely a different flavor. It's pretty sweet, but also kind of tart.

There's definitely a flavor . . . and it's a sweet flavor, but I can't really say much beyond that. I also think I got a little cheated on the apple pieces and cinnamon bark. I wish Adagio would put more of those things in their teas.

Smells great. It's a good blend of cinammon and apple, and tastes like drinking a liquid apple jack (which sounds gross but is actually very good.) I'll be buying more.

I'm not normally one for fruit teas, but this has a nice touch. I think it's more like apple cinnamon, I guess they were going for a 'red hots' kind of thing, but it didn't really come through. Still, glad I tried it.

It has a bit of sweet and a bit of apple tart. Just enough sweetner to help out and it's a delightful cup.

Very interesting taste, different from the initial fragrance. Not bad.

Am normally not a huge fan of fruit teas, but I wanted to know what this tastes like, and curiosity won out. I was pleasantly surprised

This was good, but not great. Black heavy tea with a bit of sweet apple aftertaste. Can be very refreshing.

Didn't quite have the apple-sweet taste I was looking for, but it's still a nice tea. Don't over-steep, or the chemical taste will get too strong.

I'm just not a fan of this tea. It kind of comes across as cloyingly sweet and a tad bit artificial for my taste

This is a great tea to sip in the fall. It has just enough sweet with a little spice
