I love mint, so this tea is perfect for me. This is such a great, refreshingly minty tea. It really *does* taste like candy canes!
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.

I love mint, so this tea is perfect for me. This is such a great, refreshingly minty tea. It really *does* taste like candy canes!
Playful and peppy, this is a great tea. It was not as overwhelmingly minty as I had feared - instead it is a really good morning cup!
I LOVE THIS TEA! It has just the right amount of mint flavorl
The scent is overwhelming to me and it tastes just alright.
I wanted to make sure to get more of this tea before the holidays are over. I love the taste of vanilla blended with peppermint and would even drink it on June 4th...
There's just enough peppermint to let you know it's there, but not enough candycane sweetness to make this taste 'right'. Good, but not great.
Delicious and very dark. Use a little bit and brew for about 3 min. instead of recommended 5 and with milk
This was surprisingly good! It tasted ok, then I added splenda and it brought out the mint candy cane flavor! Awesome holiday tea!
This one is absolutely delicious! My first one to try right out of the box based on smell alone. I'm happy to say it lived up to the rave reviews. I love it and will definitely reorder in bigger quantities next time.
This tea was pleasant and minty, a good black tea. I recommand people to stock up while they can ;)
This seasonal flavor has a very nice subtle minty-ness to it, but leaves a somewhat dull aftertaste, not bad but not as great as i had hoped. It is a little bit sweet for my taste even without adding sweetener.
DELICIOUS! I LOVE candy cane tea! I have previously had a competitor's brand from the supermarket, but it was a green tea and I don't love green tea. I am a HUGE fan of mint tea, and this is by far my new favorite!!
I love this tea. A wonderful sweet minty taste. I love seeing the bits of actual candy cane in the tea.
This is a nice treat for Christmas time. It even leaves your mouth tingly, like a real candy cane!
Very minty but isn't quite what I was expecting. Has a bit of an aftertaste.
This is by far my favorite of the teas I've tried. I even ordered a massive bag of it.
I love the chunks of candy canes, and the flavor is strong but not overpowering. It's got a nice hint of vanilla that's really brought out with a dash of soy milk. I find that I like it best without sugar as well, and it makes a great dessert in itself.
This had a strange side/after taste. Didn't like it alone, but it was good mixed with the gingerbread.
I ordered this tea because I thought it would be like some tea i was given for Christmas. It did not taste the same, a little bit strong for me.
Not quite what I was expecting but good none the less (totally different from the bagged 'candy cane' tea produced by another company). This tea has a very bright pepperminty profile that almost numbs your mouth. Just opening the tin makes me think of Christmas.
I absolutely love this tea. Most mint teas tend to be herbals but this combines black tea with mint- absolutely brilliant. The taste is very smooth, a good, strong mint flavor. It makes for a very relaxing cup. A nice after dinner tea.
This was way too sweet for us. I could smell it comin', just in the tin. I like the concept, but couldn't really drink more than one cup of the tea.
This is a bit too sweet for my liking. It's OK for the first cup but then I grew a bit tired of it.
I love this tea!!! I would definitely order again. The mint is just right!
This one I am not too crazy about. It's too minty for me. It's good but I prefer the other holiday flavors.
Very nice minty black tea. It's definately mint flavored, although I think I prefer the herbal mints to this one. But for mint and caffiene in one -a great pick-me-up. I really like the little bits of candy cane in there.
Not as minty as I was expecting for Candy Cane. Ok flavor, but was disappointed.
Wonderful!!! This is now the favorite tea in our office. I guess I need to buy a years supply.
Decent flavored tea, although not as strong of a pepermint taste as I wanted. Makes a nice gift or stocking stuffer!
This tea is delicioussss :D it doesnt taste like mint as it could, it really tastes like candy cane, perhaps cause theres real candy cane in it :) too bad it doesnt come in 8oz :/
A little too sweet for me. It is good, and I will drink it, but I won't order it again. It is dark, and sugary, with a hint of mint.
I've officially given up trying to like flavored teas. Didn't taste like candy canes at all, had a very awkward after taste.
This is my favorite, and I don't like candy cane in anything else but my tea. Don't take it away from me. I drink it all year long, but especially during the holiday seasons.
Very fragrant and festive! I enjoy this tea all year round - the real candy cane in the tea gives it sweetness.
One of my absolute favorites. I always make sure to order a year-round supply when the season rolls around. I alternate it with the cinnamon for an 'afternoon energizer.'
Oh, this tea tastes like the holidays! It's got actual pieces of candy canes in it, and it's just the right thing for the wintertime. Also interesting iced - a nice change from a regular mint iced tea.
Tastes kinda smokey. I wanted to kill Santa. But all my friends like it so maybe I should show a little more respect to this tea. I dunno why I bought it.
This has a very refreshing aftertaste. With milk or mixed with the black cream tea, it's very smooth and sweet.
I loved it. It taste just like eating a real candy cane picked from the christmas tree. I love to mix it with white monkey green tea to give a nice minty taste.
Especially good when it's not too strong. A nice tea to wake up to on Christmas morning.
I received this one as a free sample, which I always appreciate! But mint and black tea is a strange combination I think.
What a surprise! I never expected to like this flavor as much as I do. Too bad it's only made for the holidays. I'll have to stock up!
This was another one of those Christmas teas that I expected to taste like one thing, but wound up being quite another. I was hoping this would have more of a minty taste but it was more of a woody taste. It smelled great in the tin but that was about it.
This is easily my favorite of the holiday tea flavors. I've found that it gets bitter rather quickly, so I tend to use a lot of tea and steep only very briefly. I love the chunks of peppermint and how cool and sweet it leaves my mouth feeling.
Just the right amount of mint and not too much sweet. The candy cane pieces cloud the tea just a little bit, but that's okay. It makes an excellent cup!
Love this one - tastes just like its name, just missing the stripes.
Very good! Tasted a little different than I thought it might but I was very happy with it. Will definitely order again.
A fun tea to drink with real candy cane bits added in!
One of the first teas I did not enjoy from Adagio. The Candy Cane pieces just don't mix well with the black tea. Tastes like burned coffee.
I've never been a big fan of flavored teas, but this is good. It is a good tea for nightime during the holidays.
This is my absolute FAVORITE tea. I can't wait until this one comes back in stock!!
