★★☆☆☆
I was looking for a black tea comparable to Monster Mash which is only available during Halloween. My bag of Tiger Eye had a very strong chemical smell to it, and the taste was also a bit off. I think it might be the chocolate flavor added to it. I would not recommend this tea.
★★★★★
Nice flavor, a little heavier on the chocolate than the caramel. It's prone to oversteeping, but as long as brewing is carefully timed it is well balanced.

I tried this tea first without cream, and I wasn't sure if I liked it, but the second time I tried it, I used turbinado sugar and cream, and it's a great dessert tea. I think I was expecting more chocolate from it, but it doesn't have the rich chocolate flair like chocolate truffle... that said, I'm not getting a fake chocolate flavor either. It's smooth and sweet, and I'll probably do some blending with it. I'd like to try using coconut sugar in this to bring out a little more caramel flavor, but I'll typically stick with my stevia. Not sure if I'll immediately purchase this one again when I run out, but I am enjoying it.
I will say, I did overstep by a couple of minutes (I usually go 5 min @ 206 F), and I didn't taste any bitterness.

Very nice tea for a cup with some flavor. I love it for mixing
★★★★☆
I get some mild caramel, chocolate and vanilla flavors that are not overpowering. I have not tried this with some milk and sugar, or as a latte, but this would probably work well with either.
★★★★☆
This was my favorite of the flavored black tea blends I ordered.
★★★★☆
This tea makes a great tea latte! You can definitely taste the tea along with the flavoring which is a plus for me!

This is such a /rich/ tea. The overtones are caramel, undertones are chocolatey, and there is a distinctive roasted taste about it...almost nutty. Perfect as a winter or dessert tea with almond milk and agave.

This is so good with a little sweet cream! I steep mine a little longer for more flavor

I like the sweet flavors in this tea, I like it even better with cream and honey.

Good tea for someone with a sweet tooth. Not my favorite Adagio tea.
★★★★★
So far my favorite of the several teas at Adagio that I love. Delicious, carmely, and chocolatey, with a hint of Vanilla. Need I say more.?
★★★★★
Tiger Eye is a new favorite in our household. When paired with a touch of soy milk, it is deliciously creamy, rich and truly delightful.
★★★★★
I love this tea, one of my favorite sweet teas of Adagios, tied with their Chocolate truffle. Its really wonderful, with a nice chocolate, caramel, and creamyish vanillaish flavor nicely balanced. Like most of Adagio's flavored teas, I like to brew this one at 200 to cut down on the bitterness so that the flavors can really shine through.

Awesome. My wife loves this stuff. I got her the three ounce bag as part of a gift, and asked her if she would want another. She replied "what's the point, I'm getting a pound when this is finished!"

One of my favorites. I love this tea. Amazing! Hot or cool.
★★★★★
My favorite tea of all time. Without a doubt. I recommend this to anyone looking for a sweet, full flavor cup after cup!
★★★★☆
This tea is great. A good flavor of chocolate with a hint of caramel.
★★★★☆
I wouldn't say I like this as much as some other black teas, but it's a good change of pace from my usual rose black tea or Yorkshire Gold standard black. The chocolate flavor is very nice, not hard to detect at all. It makes quite a nice morning tea if you want something different than floral or fruit or spice.
★★★★★
Fantastic tea! Chocolate undertones. Sweet, cinnamony-chocolatey goodness.
★★★★☆
Very nice chocolate flavor, but don't detect the caramel. Vanilla just right to complement.

Sweet enough to be a dessert tea, strong enough not to be type-casted as such. Much more well rounded than the ingredients might lead you to believe.

This is a really nice treat tea. It has a little sweetness and a good smooth flavor, but not too strong.

Really good - I could pick up on both the chocolate & caramel flavors. Second steep (added 2 mins.) was 'watery', but adding cream helped bring back the flavor.

This is a terrific tea for those of us with a hard-core sweet tooth and who want something robust.

Great spiced tea! I love this tea in the evening when I get time to relax and unwind. It is also very soothing when my throat is sore. It's great with some skim milk and honey

This is a wonderful after dinner tea, when you want something sweet but don t have anything in the house to have for dessert.
★★★★★
This tea has a deliciously rich flavor and enjoyably sweet all on its own. Still one of my favorites many years later.
★★★☆☆
It's a bit strong, it has a kind of bitter aftertaste that lingers for a bit. It's not terrible especially since a lot of black teas have that quality if they've been oversteeped.
★★★★☆
We use it to make iced tea, mixed with Ceylon. It’s really strongly flavored but mixed with the Ceylon it’s perfect!
★★★★★
Oh my! I love this tea! It has a full bodied chocolate flavor that hits the spot. Finished my sample bag in record speed!

★★★★☆
This is a very good tea if you want a subtle flavor of chocolate and caramel. The scents are much stronger than the flavors. It also feels like there's a good amount of caffeine which always is a plus!

Very well blended, I can taste the chocolate and the caramel. Ordered a sample, it is now on my buy list, about 1/4 of samples order have gotten on the list.
★★★★★
This is fast becoming my favorite tea to drink. The chocolate smell when you prepare it is just wonderful. And the smooth chocolate flavor when you drink it, really yum. Highly recommend.

The subtle sweetness and mellow taste of this tea was a pleasant surprise. It’s great on its own, but a bit of cream and sugar make this tea a special treat.

The smell you first get when you open ip the bag of tea is spectacular! The tea itself is also very decadent and the aftertaste is rich with caramel and chocolate. Wonderful! It makes a great cup of milk tea. It reminds me of brown sugar boba tea! Definitely on my list of items to order again.

A sweet, dessert-y tea that I definitely enjoyed! It tastes almost exactly the way you'd expect it to, so if it sounds good to you, you'll probably like it!

I think the reason I enjoy Adiago flavored teas so much is they use such a subtle hand with their flavorings. I am a lifelong straight tea drinker and have been turned off in the past by teas that overwhelm the natural tea taste with flavors that are in your face. Not so here. You get a great taste of tea first with the flavoring on the back of the cup. Nice job.

Quite a caffiene kick to this one. Rich dark chocolate, perfect bitterness and very delicious.
★★★★★
Didn’t appreciate until the end of the cup, stir frequently - the sweetness settles
★★★★★
Mildly sweet with a fantastic chocolately aroma. I drank mine with a splash of cream and it tastes like a less sweet hot chocolate.
★★★☆☆
this tea tasted good, but it was not strong enough and not enough chocolate. It claims to be the equivalent of David's tea's English Toffee and it doesn't come close! I mixed it with black tea the second time I drank it, and it was delicious.
★★★★★
Really good tea with some sugar and milk good chocolate flavors but not over powering the caramel is more of an after taste
