My favorite tea bar none. Rich creamy flavor, very comforting taste.
Classic Ceylon tea touched with the flavor of fresh cream. Sweet and warm, pleasantly brisk, delicately creamy.

My favorite tea bar none. Rich creamy flavor, very comforting taste.
This tea has a very nice aroma. However, I get an aftertaste in the actual flavor.
A classic. Sweet but neutral. Can be added to other flavors like chocolate.
I was shocked by how creamy this tea tasted! I ordered a sample size after reading the description because I was curious. It tastes exactly like black tea with heavy cream! Would recommend if you like the cream flavor but want to save on calories
This is my favorite tea. It has a perfect balance of sweet and earthy Flavors
This one is my favorite. Subtle notes of vanilla bring this one home. Add some honey to bring out the flavors.
Love this tea!!! Real creamy flavor & notes and such a perfect smoothness to each sip. Excellent. I highly recommend this tea. If you like tiger eye, try this!
I received this first in a COMMUNITEA packet and i was very happy to save it. Warm, creamy, malty... It reminded me of fresh warm whipped cream. A little honey was all it needed. It was so good I had to order a 3oz bag.
This is my favorite! I will be purchasing again.
THIS TEA IS SWEET AND SMOOTH. GOOD FOR COLD DAYS. I HAVE HAD IT OVER ICE AND NOT BAD AT ALL
I find it very fun to have a tea that is already creamy from the get go. It's very mild. And really nice
This is really great - it's more than vanilla. It has a lovely creamy flavor - like milk with vanilla.
This is a tea that I think really works best as part of a blend to tie together and highlight other flavors. On its own its certainly not a bad tea, but it is a bit lackluster
I was pleasantly surprised by this tea. Its not as visually pleasing as some but the flavor is robust and creamy just like the name implies.
Lovely enjoyable black tea with a light sweet and smooth flavor. This gives the cup a nice illusion of cream even when sipped straight and that creaminess helps other flavors play well together in blends.
An okay tea for me, smells good but the flavor tastes a bit too artificial and slightly bitter for me.
I was pleasantly surprised by this tea! I got it in the CommuniTea pack, and after brewing it, added a splash of soya milk. The tea was sweet enough on its own, it tasted like a tea with milk and sugar even though I never added sugar. A nice pleasant surprise!
I wasn't sure what to expect from this tea going in. It was a pleasant surprise when I sipped it. It reminded me of marshmallows. I will be getting this tea again at some point.
Slightly astringent and bitter when hot. Honey added to help the cream flavors come out of hiding and to help decrease the bitterness. This tea is better after it cools a bit. Creamy flavors come forward and blend so well with the subtle chocolate notes of the black tea. Cream tea is better in a blend though. I sometimes add it to a second steep of something to give the flavor a boost. Today I added HB vanilla to the second steep of cream. It is delicious with a bit of honey. Steeped 195º for 3 mins. Cheers!
Cream - the name sounds interesting - what will it be like? This was a smooth tea with a hint of a creamy texture. Since I am not an adder of items to my tea, it was probably not one of my personal favorites. However for those who like milk/cream in their tea, this would likely be a very good base to start with.
The tea is not bad, just not the top of my personal flavor list. I would drink again, but not likely rush out and buy a bag.
This is a good tea but I didn’t get as much vanilla flavor as I had thought I would. I typically like to drink my tea unadulterated - no cream, no sugar - but I should try it again another time with a tad of sugar. The black tea was a nice brew. It wasn’t too strong for me. The flavor was nice and smooth.
a good, simple tea. a little too bland for me on its own, but it would hold up better mixed with another tea
This is a favorite for blending for a reason, but it stands up well on its own - a lovely Ceylon base with a warm, tasty cream flavor - no dairy needed!
This was a nice flavoured black tea, once I added some soymilk. That being said, I would prefer to take a favourite, unflavoured black tea and add my own cream.
A blend with a nice calming flavor. It is good by itself or as a tea latte.
Sweet, creamy notes with a vanilla-like finish rise from a strong black tea to greet the nose this morning, the flavor soothing the sharper notes to help rein them in.
This tea is buttery smooth, moreso than most black teas I've sipped, and while it's nice on its own, I strongly believe that it performs best in a blend - fruit teas in particular excel alongside it.
(3 mins @ 212°F, cream)
I've had this tea in several blends, but never on its own. I'm definitely a fan of it flying solo.
I love cream, and this just didn’t match my expectations. I steeped at a lower temp and still had some bitterness. I like this flavor more in blends.
I love dessert teas, and this one is no exception. It’s smooth and creamy and great with a splash of milk.
This is a fine black tea, and I did detect some cream notes. Even adding a little cream and sugar, this tea is probably best as part of a blend rather than on its own.
I always add milk to black teas, so it was hard to leave it out, but I wanted to try this one on its own. Steeped at 212 for 3 minutes, this tea had some creaminess but tasted bitter to me. Perhaps it needed a lower temperature? I never add sugar to teas, but I did for this one after reading reviews that suggested it. The sugar takes off the bitter edge and lets the cream flavor shine through. With the sugar it's a nice enough tea, but not one I'd order on it's own, though it does seem that it would be good in blends.
A fine black tea with a mild cream flavor. I think it would taste a bit better with milk or cream added, but on it own I found it a bit lackluster. 3 mins at 200°F.
I must agree, this cream flavoring is better as a blend than as a stand-alone. All in all, however, a good black tea, smoothed out a bit. Update...still feel the same about this tea. Honey makes it much better.
Cream flavor is one of my favorite additions to tea. I brewed at 195F for 3min, and any faint bitterness I get from the black tea is quickly covered by the cream. I don't like adding sugar or cream to my tea, so this tea's flavor gets me the creamy flavor without having to add anything after brewing.
This tasted more like vanilla to me than the actual vanilla tea I tried yesterday.
I enjoy this tea by itself or in blends. I’m halfway through a second pouch now and like to brew 2 ½ tsp in a 16 oz. mug for 3 min. at 195*F. The dark tea leaves brew into a cream scented amber colored liquor. And with careful brewing there's no bitterness just some pleasant astringency. Chilled, this tea tastes like a delicious cream soda, so yummy! This one remains a favorite, I love it for its comforting creamy goodness balanced nicely with bright Ceylon!
Surprisingly good tea. That was unexpected, not being a cream-loving person. I enjoyed the tea and may decide to get more.
This is a really delicious tea with a teaspoon of sugar added to the cup. I get to enjoy the taste of cream without adding it to my tea.
I love this tea. Add some honey, or other fave sweetener and somehow it just calms me down. I have even added a teaspoon or two to other teas that tasted too bitter or just plain yuck. Not saying it can work miracles, however it has salvaged a couple items so they weren’t total losses.
So far my favorite black tea, smooth and mildly sweet. Perfect in the morning or for an afternoon pick me up.
Great flavor & I love mixing it with Earl Grey Moonlight
I really like to mix this one with the almond and caramel black teas.
Wonderful creamy taste and not synthetic at all. I blend this with strawberry or peach tea and pour over ice for a dessert tea. Delicious. With a little sugar this is fantastic. Absolutely smells divine and is very smooth.
This is so good! I usually like a splash of milk in hot black tea but this hardly needs it. It is excellent iced as well.
Exactly as the name implies. Enjoyable cup of tea.
This tea is smooth and lovely to drink on a cool day. I use cream instead of milk and 1 spoonful of sugar. The cream makes it even smoother and enhances the taste of vanilla. I steep it for 3 minutes for the strength that I prefer. When it is steeped for 5 minutes, there is a hint of bitterness to the tea.
Great staple to add to other teas for that creamy taste without milk.
It's a nice robust flavor that is pleasantly smooth.
Simple and sweet. Tried it in the sampler and had to get it again. I usually sip my tea slowly but I downed this one pretty quickly.
I really enjoyed this one. It was nice and creamy tasting. I would definitely consider getting this one again.
