Ceylon tea with cozy, creamy hazelnuts. Aromatic, slightly roasted with a rounded, sweet flavor and toasty dryness.

I like this flavor, though I am hard-pressed to tell it apart from the Chestnut flavor. I suppose the hazelnut is a little more barky, and a little less butterscotch-like, but they're close in flavor. Either way, it's a nice pairing with the hearty black tea base and feels good in the fall season.
I love the flavor of hazelnut coffee so didn't know what to expect with hazelnut tea. When I made it and added milk, you could barely taste the hazelnut flavor. I am not sure if I needed to make the tea stronger or steep it longer. Maybe I will like it more the second time around.
The hazelnut smell was amazing and very strong when I opened the bag, and I had hoped the flavor would match it. It is a very nice cup, though!
I don't normally drink flavored black teas but I thought this one might be good with milk and sugar, and it was. Tastes more like coffee
This is my favourite tea. It has a really strong hazelnut flavour and it's beautiful.
Love using this to blend with other flavors. It does get a little bitter if it steeps too long.
The same great scent as hazelnut coffee/cookies, but with a rich, unsugared flavor of the actual nut. Very earthy, I love it
rich taste, warming, ideal morning starter. Usually with a bit of cream.
Really good right out of the box. The smell is great. I feel like I'm at a cafe when i brew this tea!
can't say i liked it at all, kind of a strange flavor.
It seems ok, but I am not a huge fan of hazelnut flavour. But that is my personal preference.
The smell of the tea as I opened the package was strong and a bit bittersweet and I was worried I wouldn't enjoy it. Taking the first sip, however, I could certainly taste a faint nutty flavor, which is brought out more with some sweetener. Adding milk gave it more of a rounded taste, and it's not such a bad tea!
Very Christmassy and nutty. Good for a cold night :)
When you first open the bag, you're hit with the delicious scent of hazelnut. It's a bit like hazelnut coffee as well. It seems almost overpowering at first but once brewed, the hazelnut mellows out and it becomes more of a subtle flavour that rounds out the tea perfectly.
Haven't tried it by itself yet, but it's a staple when I blend now! And it smells delicious, reminds me of christmas baking weekend at my mom's for some reason! Will have to try it straight and update this review when I do.
Oh Adagio, what happened?
Before i say anything else, let me clarify- i still love this tea. No one else has come close to it, and it still ranks as one of my top 3 here, and tends to be the one I run out of first. That said...
It's never been the same to me since Adagio switched from tins to bags (note- not tea bags, but bags the loose tea arrives in).
The Hazelnut always had a very subtle, but natural aroma to it- pure nutty goodness, and being a hazelnut lover in general, I was more than pleased with Adagio's take on it.
After the big bag debacle, I tried other brands, but unfortunately, no dice. After a year of other brands, I came back to adagio, hoping maybe I'd fall in love again. I didn't- but I still hold that Adagio's is better than anyone else's- and it's also worth saying, tht Hazelnut is not one of the most common tea flavors- not a lot of people sell it.
The problem is the bags- and even though I immediately switched my hazelnut to a tin, it never managed to re-assert itself. The fragrance is lost, completely, and in it's place was something ... icky.
Taste wise, it's still good- and brewed, it does hold up a little better.
If this review seems a little ambivalent, I apologize- I suppose i just got spoiled on the pre-bag era. If you love hazelnut, you'll love this stuff. I just advise not judging it by the scent, and if you have a tin or container, switch it ASAP.
Prep: Be careful not to over-boil, as it's nuttiness naturally lend itself to bitterness- about 2 and a half minutes in just-cooled boiling water does the trick.
Let me just say that I have tried hazelnut coffee found it absolutely disgusting, so I did not have high hopes for this tea. This tea is everything I wanted the coffee to be: warm, nutty, comforting and tasty. I liked it so much more than I expected to. It's also good blended with blackberry or chocolate tea.
I love it. It's rich and black and creamy with deliciousness.
This is a really great tea--great flavor and pairs, to me, with absolutely any other earthy tea. Goes great with heavy cream or vanilla creamer. Great replacement for your iced coffee fix, when strongly brewed, (in my opinion).
I got this as a sample and I couldn't stop drinking it. I ordered 3 oz and it is too strong in the hazelnut. I have to mix it with something to even it out and make it like the sample. Great flavor when the strength is right.
This was the first tea I recall trying from Adagio. I was over at a friend's house, during the winter, and she pulled out her magical tea box and let me dig around. I read, 'Hazelnut', and was immediately intrigued.
I have been hooked ever since.
It has a very strong nutty smell. The taste reminds me of a good cup hazelnut coffee. It's great for a comforting tea with a bit of milk.
Very robust and flavorful. The taste lives up to the aroma. A great hot tea on a cold morning and as well as a unique ice tea.
had a nice coffee like flavor. great with sugar!!
I got this as a free sample from a friend, and man it does not disappoint! It tastes just as delicious as it smells, with a little sugar to set off the flavor. Another new favorite!
Warm and fuzzy. That's what this tea is like. It's very adult and very nutty (duh) and very nice to drink on the porch on a crisp autumn morning.
I keep coming back to this! I always add a splash of vanilla soymilk and I can't imagine a better chilly morning luxury!
It is a good tea to have around to blend with other teas.
I bought this to blend with a few of my black teas while waiting for the Golden Monkey to come in. I don't think it's a bad tea, I just realize I'm not a fan of the hazelnut favor in anything but the actual nut!
Better than I was expecting: nutty, warm, and full-bodied, I bought it mainly as a mixing tea to experiment with in blends, but it makes for a nice (if somewhat strongly flavored) tea when brewed alone. It's got an especially nice aftertaste that lingers on the tongue for some time.
Blended this with the cream tonight. Love it! Has a very nutty fragrance. Works well as a coffee substitute.
I work at a coffee shop and I'm not supposed to drink coffee so you can imagine my dilemma. I love hazelnut flavored amricano's and this tea is a wonderful alternative. I don't even really miss coffee much anymore.
This was just a warm and inviting tea, the taste is very smooth without being too bitter.
This is great iced, blended with honeybush vanilla.
I had to get used to this tea at first. but now I like it
This is a nice tea! I really get the hazel nut taste in it.
I love nutty teas and this tea was so delicious! It takes sugar and milk very well, even if it is a bit plain. Anyone who likes chocolatey or nutty teas will certainly enjoy this tea! Be careful to mind the steeping time, around 4 minutes or it gets bitter.
I much prefer unflavored black teas but tried this one because I love hazelnuts. Discovered very quickly that this is definitely not for me as I couldn't even finish the first cup. Improves when milk and honey added.
I gave this tea a bad rating last time. It had a toxic smell and taste.I couldnt figure out what was wrong.I removed the tea from the ziplock bag let the tea breathe and put the tea in some metal containers from old tea orders and the tea was great.So this is still my number one tea once again.
A bit of milk and sugar makes this tea even better.
Hazelnut Tea Is Awesome With Chocolate Chip Blend Absolutely Love This Tea...
Rich and nutty. A little lighter than the chestnut.
Out of the bag it smells warm and nutty, reminding me of the smell of roasted coffee (since my preferred coffee flavor is hazelnut), however the nuttiness is much stronger and there is no actual coffee smell. A strong nutty taste, with a little bit of sweetness to it (that might be the rock sugar though). A much better taste of hazelnut than in coffee. Overall opinion: I absolutely love this tea. It is the perfect substitute for hazelnut coffee, in fact a little better since the flavor is much stronger.
What a rich cuppa tea! My daughter was hoping it would taste like Nutella, but it doesn't. This has all the nuttiness, but not the chocolate. I might do a mix next time to see if I can get the taste she was missing, but I certainly did not mind.
this is a very manly man tea, i don't know why but it feels very masculine to me, which i like. a girl can take only so much summer rose and lemon soleil(?) before she needs something like this.
this tea is rich and smooth and decadent, i love that it just seethes hazelnut! just gonna say one thing,ok, following me, only gonna say it once, alright, ok?
mix this with the chocolate tea-
BOOSH! * does a mind blown action with hands*
I found this too sweet and superficial to drink on its own, and lacking the richly nutty flavour I had been hoping for. Blended into irish breakfast tea, however, it adds interest and is a nice addition.
I love the way this tea reminds me of a good hazelnut coffee. I can no longer drink coffee, and this is a nice alternative that hits some of the same flavor profiles. I had thought this tea might be a little strong for my taste, but it has a really smooth nutty flavor without any artificial sweetness that you sometimes get with hazelnut creamers and such. I actually think the hazelnut blends better with black tea than it does with coffee, creating a more mellow taste. I love drinking this one blended with just a little of the Vanilla black tea or a touch of Coconut.
Not quite as flavorful as I expected, but is very tasty with milk and sugar.
If you like hazelnut, this is your tea. I opened the bag an the best smell of rich hazelnut I've ever smelled rushed out at me :) I brewed a cup, and it's delicious.
For comparison's sake, I brewed a cup each of Chestnut, Hazelnut, Honeybush Hazelnut and Mocha Nut Mate. Let me just say that, overall, it was a *fantastic* experiment. I liked every tea in this batch of Adagio teas. They're all really satisfying and delicious, each in their own individual ways. Interestingly, though, this was my least favorite tea of the four. From its scent, I expected Hazelnut to have the pushiest nut flavor out of the batch, but I actually found its hazelnut component to be weaker than that of its lighter, comparatively gentle cousin, Honeybush Hazelnut. There was a certain darkness to the brew that I liked, but it was less specifically nutty, in my opinion, than any of the other three teas.
