This was awesome! I usually don't like black teas very much, but this was more pepperminty that anything, plus that sweet element from the pieces of candy cane. Loved it.
This wonderfully smooth, minty treat that will fill you with a warm Christmas spirit and leave you jolly. There's no need to wait for a visit from Old Saint Nick to enjoy this yuletide favorite.

This was awesome! I usually don't like black teas very much, but this was more pepperminty that anything, plus that sweet element from the pieces of candy cane. Loved it.
As a 'minty tea' this is very good, a nice 'wake up' tea for the morning 'cuppa'.
I enjoy the candy cane flavor for an occasional treat.
This tea was way to strong for me. I ended up throwing it out, it just wasn't for me.
I really like Candy Cane tea, this tea was good, but it wasn't exceptional or anything. It's still worth getting over other Candy Cane teas though, because you get Adagio quality!
This is hands down the best mint tea. The candy canes lend a hint of sweet and give it an amazing flavor. Splash in some milk and you're good to go.
This tea was a big hit with my college friends. It's a gentler sort of peppermint than just straight up peppermint tea.
Really good but, the peppermint flavor can be a little much sometimes.
This is an awesome winter tea, very comforting on cold nights.
This stuff is sooo strong when I breathed into my travel mug it blew steam into my eye lol that peppermint hella sharp. It's good though, nice satisfying aftertaste.
It smells just like a candy cane. Perfect seasonal tea for the winter.
This has become one of my favorite teas! Love, love, love it!
This is minty and rich- with milk, even more so. It was nice to try, but I don't think it will be in our usual rotation.
This tastes JUST like a candy cane!! It's pepperminty and good with just a hint of sweet! I love it! :D I've tried it both hot and iced. I do prefer it hot, but it was quite delicious iced as well.
Nice flavor--great when it's hot out because of its refreshing mint.
I was apprehensive about buying a tea that had chunks of candy in it. That seemed like a lazy way to go about making a beverage. But, I trusted that Adagio wouldn't make junk, and bought a sample. This is black tea mixed with peppermint leaves, so you get that backdrop, and then they added little bits of candy and natural candy flavoring. They made what could have been something cheap and tacky into something absolutely delightful and refreshing. I made this double-strength and poured the hot tea over ice. The second time I made this I put some milk into it. Both times I used some Splenda. This was a real winner.
This tea was ok...it reminded me of Christmas time.
This black tea is great for stomach aches and colds. It's peppermint flavor cleared my sinuses up immediately and it calmed my stomach. It's my perfect peppermint tea!
Do I love this tea! Bold and slightly creamy but with a definitely pepperminty bite. it has become a regular for me. And the mint sets well on the sensitive tummy - lots of butterflies there, preparing for my son's upcoming wedding. usually I use spearmint tea when the tummy needs a balm, but this way I can get my black tea along with the healing balm of mint!
Wow! I don't really know what I was expecting from this tea. I like peppermint tea in the first place but this cup is beyond what I expected. A lovely creamy, vanilla peppermint candy cane flavor blended with black tea. Delicious!
Really good, can definitely taste the candy cane.
One of my favorite teas! One of the problems I have had with a lot of mint teas are that they are too subtle. This tea is very minty and refreshing year-around.
Tasty! The peppermint flavors of the candy cane pieces really come through, making it a delightful holiday treat. Very much on the sweet side.
I was a little worried about candy in tea. Turns out I had nothing to fear. The tea tastes very Christmas-y. Delicious with milk and sugar.
Whoa. When people were saying that this tastes exactly like liquid candy canes in a cup, I'm not sure what I expected, but I thought it would still taste very much like tea, as well. But really, it's *exactly*, purely, peppermint candy canes! I love it. It's delicious and refreshing, and probably would go great with milk, too. I had it plain, and it's pure awesomeness in a cup.
I wish this tea tasted half as good as it smells in the bag. The scent is almost salted? Very decadent aroma from the dry leaves as well as the brew itself! The real catch here is the taste...oh my gosh, it's overpowering and so bitter. More like hot menthol than anything else. Maybe this would be better with spearmint candies rather than peppermint.
This tea is a little too strong for my tastes but it is very fragrant.
Nice minty flavor without being too strong. Great for cold winter days!
I got this tea b/c I was so curious what candy cane black tea would taste like and I've actually enjoyed it so much more than expected.
What a wonderful surprise this tea is! I picked up a sample on the recommendation of my sister, and was prepared for a fairly boring peppermint tea. But it was incredible! I had it with a little stevia and cashew milk, and it was the perfect desert in a tea mug. Absolutely delicious, just like candy. I can't wait to order more.
This tea is amazing! It smells like peppermints and cream, and really does taste like a candy cane. Great for a morning wake up, a relaxing afternoon cup or an evening treat.
I truly wish there was button that means more than great because that is the one I would choose. When I opened the bag I felt like I got punched in the face with a fistful of candy canes! OMG...I could not believe how pepperminty fresh this blend is. I literally walked around making every family breathe in the wonderful bag of yumminess.
This is the tea grandchildren the ask me to make when they come. we like it both hot and iced. Great flavor and fun to drink, seems like Christmas year round.
A nice afternoon pick-me-up: a hit of energizing mint along with some caffeine.
I loved this. It was perfect fr the holidays and sweet enough on its own to not need sweetener. Tastes just like Christmas to me.
Sounded good, tasted awful and like perfume. Disappointing.
I am fond of this tea! Such a perky and refreshing taste! Love it!!
Hand up for this tea guys!! Minty, and fresh, and dark, and punchy!
I love this tea!!!
Really didn't like this one. Not enough candy cane flavor.
I was definitely skeptical going into this one - many mint teas are too 'in your face' or face-puckering. But the candy cane tea is a nice blend of black tea with that cool minty taste and tingling. Definite favorite!
Rich, sweet, and creamy in all the right ways, this tea tastes like actual candy can rather than a black tea with some peppermint thrown in. This is probably due in part to the actual pieces of candy cane you can see mixed in with the leaves that dissolve in the water.
A great tea for the cold winter months or around Christmas time. Or, if you're like me and somehow managed to make a weird mental connection to trains, then every time you drink this tea you will think of trains. Every time you think about a train, you'll start to taste this tea. It's weird, but I like candy cane, and trains so it works.
Loved this tea! Super yummy and had much more depth than typical 'mint' teas.
Easily goes bitter, not enough light candy cane flavor to quite balance out. Better to drink it early and all at once than to let it sit for any length of time. Nice on the throat.
This has quickly become one of my favorite teas! I am usually into straight up black teas but I love the smooth candy cane flavor of this tea. I originally received some in a sample pack and have come back twice now to buy more. Great tea!!
I did not think I would like this tea, but it really surprised me! It has a great peppermint flavor, and is very soothing.
Pleasantly surprised! Nice minty and sweet flavor that doesn't over-power.
Ordered more because I love it so much. Wonderful candy-like smell and flavor.
Not my favorite as it has that hint of candy to it.
I love the minty undertones of the candy cane tea.
I wasn't very happy with the chocolate mint green tea and it's surprisingly chemically flavor. This one however is absolutely fantastic! It has a great smell and I enjoy it equally sweetened or unsweetened, and honestly, at any time of year
Minty, but sweet and not as in-your-face and biting as herbal mint teas can be.
I prefer loose leaf teas, but got this in tea bags. Really good, and wish was available in loose leaf.
