★★★★★

This tea has a good strong floral flavor without tasting like perfume. There's nothing subtle about it, so if you aren't a fan of floral flavors, you may be better off avoiding this one. I think it's wonderful, though.

★★★☆☆

It was good, but not really what I was looking for in flavor.

★★★★★

Expectations are important with this tea. Remember it's hibiscus flavored tea, not an Agua Fresca, the hibiscus flavor is much milder. That said, the tart flowery/fruity hibiscus flavor is prominent. A bit of sugar will take the edge off the tartness, but is not necessary. Could blend well with fruity herbal teas or maybe a rooibos. The black tea itself is good for a re-steep, but almost all the hibiscus flavor will be gone.

It's not amazing, it's not disgusting, it just is. I will have to try to blend it with other teas to bring the notes out.

★☆☆☆☆

Sooooooo fake tasting. UGH. I have had hibiscus tea made with pure flowers before, and this tastes NOTHING like it.

it tastes like cheap candy, I couldn't even drink it.

I ordered this thinking it'd be actual hibiscus, not just flavored black tea. The leaves and tea smell delicious, but there's not much actual flavor in the tea that I can taste. An okay black.

This tea wasn't very good. Tastes artificial to me.

Not overly floral, full bodied and pleasant without any bitter back endnotes.

★★★★★

I have enjoyed this tea very much. Hibiscus is one of the herbal teas you would normally buy when your experiencing cramps and this one thought no herbal has been wonderful at helping.

★★★★★

I love hibiscus teas, and this is one of the best I have had. It really has a bold flavor of hibiscus. Is one of my favorites.

★★★★☆

Great flavor if you like the floral thing. Better if blended with a fruit.

★★★☆☆

This tea is okay. Tastes a little like medicine to me after you drink it for a while.

★★★★★

I really love this tea. I got it as a free sample, but I definitely can see myself spending money on it in the future. The flavour is a bit strong if you leave it steeping for longer than the recommended amount of time (3 minutes), but it's easy to temper the flavour with a bit of sugar or honey.

Very lovely floral fragrance, but not a strong flowery taste.

Love this. A little tart, a little sweet, and just delicious. Multiple infusions led to more hibiscus with a less black tea, so a different flavor in each cup. Mmm...

This is a strong black tea, with very strong hibiscus flavor. It can get bitter on its own from the hibiscus, but I love mixing it with other teas to give them just a bit more of a zing. It's a great and universal tea to have.

This is very interesting flavor black tea. I like the floral but semi sweet flavor to this tea.

★★☆☆☆

A sickeningly sweet, almost cotton-candy flavor. I could see some liking it, but I couldn't finish a glass of it. The flavor overpowered any other tea I tried to blend it with too. If you really like it sweet, give it a try. Otherwise, get your own dried hibiscus flower and blend it yourself, you'll be much better pleased with the result.

★★★★☆

The color and aroma of this tea is beautiful. The taste is floral, without being overpowering. Adding a little sugar really brings out the tropical feeling of the tea. Will be awesome iced this summer.

Floral and very colorful. Love it! Great mixed with other teas, too.

★★☆☆☆

Didn't like the flavor on this one it all - to me it tasted more like Kool-Aid with a bit of a waxy aftertaste.

★★★★★

If you're a fan of floral tea, this one is pretty amazing.

This has a nice, fruity flavor. I think it would be wonderful iced. Not my favorite tea ever, but very nice.

This brewed up lighter and more flowery than I expected from the tart scent in the bag. I like it and the flavor changes with almost every sip

I bought this one for my mom and she liked it although now she also wants a special pot to brew it in.

★★★★★

So delicious and aromatic. Very enjoyable. I love this tea.

★★☆☆☆

This blend was too floral for me, unfortunately. I enjoy green jasmine teas on occasion, but I find those floral flavors to be much more subtle than hibiscus. I felt it was worth a try, but it was just a bit too sickly sweet for my tastes.

This tea has a bold, refreshing flavor that I think will taste great both iced and hot. Currently I've had it hot, and it's wonderful. The taste and the aroma are out of this world. I bought a sample with my last order. next time I plan to buy a nice size package. I definitely recommend this flavor to others.

Great flavor.















































★★★☆☆

I enjoyed this tea, however it is not in the running of the best hibiscus I have tasted.

★★★★☆

This has a really strong bubblegum scent in the bag - but not in an unpleasant way at all. Once steeped, it has a subtle, fruity-floral flavor. It tastes great iced or hot, plain or sweetened. I prefer it with a bit of honey.

Just trying this morning and love it. Just enough sweetness and true hibiscus flavor.

★★★★★

Hibiscus tea is a great fruity tea. It almost tastes just like fruit punch. Great iced!

★★★★☆

This tea is pleasant. It's light, sweet, and floral without being flowery or cloying. It would be lovely as a summery iced tea. My co worker makes an iced tea punch that this tea would be perfect for.

I bought this for my family and I hope they enjoy!

★★★☆☆

If you want to try a new tea, this is one I highly recommend. Hibiscus is floral but not like flowerly but like fragrantly spiced but lightly. I drank this tea with a little bit of sugar so I could get the full robustness of it and I loved it.

★★★☆☆

IT isnt the best on its own but mixed into others it is amazing.

★★★☆☆

I really wanted to like this tea, but I think the hibiscus flavor misses the mark in this black tea. I'm a fan of pure hibiscus tisanes, but this just tastes like a vaguely sour black tea to me.

★★★★★

Really enjoyed this flavor! Light and sweet flowery taste...

One of the better floral teas i have had. A lot of times i wind up getting tired of floral teas because they are too strong (like drinking perfume) but the hibiscus was nice and light, but you could still taste it!

I actually prefer the Mexican version of this. Not too bad though.

★★★★★

The taste is comlex, and probably one of my favorites. Also, lovely red color adds to the overall expirience.

★★★★★

This is one of my all time favorite teas. I like floral teas in general. It has a stronger flavor than most jasmines but it isn't as astringent a most rose teas.

Oh geez. That is sure hibiscus: tangy-sour and sweet and super intense. It beats the natural bitterness of the Ceylon to a pulp and dances around in your mouth.

Fruity smelling and just delicious. It pairs well with other teas but I'm a little bummed it's not an herbal.

★★★★★

I loved this tea. It was a great blend and I really enjoyed it!

★★★☆☆

I was hoping for a fun summer flavor with this one but found it a little overwhelmingly strong. It's not one I'll be buying again, but it might work for someone who's already a fan of hibiscus tea and wants an extra kick of energy with it.

Hibiscus was really interesting! It wasn't quite what I expected, but it was still pretty tasty with a dash of milk and sugar.
