Wow! Now, I understand why this stuff sold out so fast last year. This tea is absolutely amazing! I will say that the creme brulee definitely is the dominant flavor and scent, so you better enjoy that, like I do. However, it does have a nice, smoky aftertaste from the gunpowder green, which might be my favorite of the green teas. Although I could slightly smell the apples, I couldn't really taste them, due to the other powerful flavors.
A fairly sweet tea that requires little to no sweetener in my opinion. Very minimal caffeine too, so I can drink it at night. Also, this pairs very well with shortbread cookies.

This is my first time trying this tea, and I was surprised. I actually like the smokey taste it has combined with the other flavors. I have only had (5) cups this week and may update the review in the future.
★★★☆☆
I want to love this tea. I want to say it s a hug in a mug, like pulling on your favorite sweater and walking outside in the crisp, autumn air. But it s just...not. It s so overwhelmingly sweet that none of the delightfully autumnal flavors come through. That creme brulee flavor must be mostly sugar. There s no other reason for this tea to be cloying when I never add sweeteners to my tea. Oh well. Swing and a miss.

The review describes a hint of 'creme brulee flavor,' and if I'm honest, I was expecting to taste it. To my very pleasant surprise I did! This is a great, cozy tea to enjoy during colder weather.

I wasn't sure how I was going to feel about this tea but it is so delicious. It quickly worked its way up to one of my favorite teas on the site. It's absolutely perfect for rainy days and since we get a lot of those where I live, I've gone through the bag rather quickly. I'm down to my last two cups and I want to save them for a rainy day but, well, it's always raining this time of year. So I guess I'll be ordering more soon!
★★★★☆
This tea is very nice. Green tea is not my favorite but I do like this one. My 14 year old daughter drinks this every morning and stated, 'this tea tastes like vanilla and happiness'. Praise indeed!

So much goodness in this cup. It makes me feel like I’m drinking fall and I don’t want to stop.
★★★★☆
Light and tasty. A gentle green tea with a little somethin'-somethin' added. It does put you in mind of autumn happiness. Good job Adagio.
★★★☆☆
Very light crème brûlée flavor, with a hint of smoke, and an underbelly of artificiality -- maybe that was just my batch, though! I wanted this tea to be a little more full-bodied in flavor than it turned out to be, but if you're looking for a light dash of misty, autumnal, green flavor, this tea might be your misty, autumnal, green bag.

In love with this seasonal tea. My husband too found this tea exquisite, though was astonished to find out it was a seasonal tea. He had to buy more and stock up for the year. It was that good.
Overall, it is quite a delicious tea. It's good by itself or with a little sugar. The creme brulee tea is a bit overwhelming, masking the gunpowder. I have to admit though, I am an avid gunpowder drinker, so it may not come through to me as those who are not. Get it before it's too late! No more samples? Buy whatever is available and try the tea. I assure you-you will like it.

I love GP Green Tea, it's almost too bad you can't really taste it in this...but it's so good that it almost makes up for it. It's like having a tea cappuccino. Admittedly I don't really taste the apples, as the creme brulee flavor seems to take over for the most part, with maybe a bit of cinnamon. At very least if there's anyone you know(even yourself maybe) who doesn't like green tea, they may fall in love with this.

Every time I make this tea people in my office walk by and wonder what smells like maple syrup. I don't really smell it, but apparently Autumn Mist Green is maple syrupy! It's seriously delicious, though. The gunpowder green is so perfectly smoky and goes great with the fruit notes. The creme brulee is what really brings it home, in my opinion.

Oh man. Oh. Man. This is one beautiful tea. Don't let the fact that it smells like caramel confuse you: I promise this tea is, in fact, quite light and relaxing. Perfect for fall, and delicious especially after a long day of work or school.

This is a very nice, very interesting tea. The gunpowder of course lends a slight smokiness that is lovely. I don't get a lot of a fruit flavor but there is a slight juiciness. The one thing I don't care for is how strong the creme brulee flavor is. It leaves a funny after-taste that I don't love and it's stronger than any other flavor. If that was lessened it would be perfect.

This tea is wonderful. It is smooth and the flavors blend well together without one being too overpowering. A great fall time treat!

Lovely, light, sweet flavor. The creme brulee flavor is definitely the strongest in there, but it doesn't make the tea itself taste heavy. You get a decent amount of smoky green flavor from the gunpowder tea too.
★★★★★
legitimately one of the best adagio tea's ive gotten. caramelly sweet with a smoky aftertaste. don't get much rose though
★★★★★
This tea doesn't need any sugar. Like I always feel the need to add sugar to tea but this one is fine without. I love it.
★★★★★
Oh my. As soon as I opened the bag I knew this was going to be amazing. The taste did not disappoint, subtly sweet and full of bright, autumn notes. Definitely a new fall favorite!

To be rather honest it just tastes like a regular green tea more than anything else. Im not getting a lot of rose, or creme brulee flavor at all.

This tea sounded amazing. The caramel is overwhelming. If you don't like sweet, do not buy this one. The green tea is nice once I pick out the apple pieces but just too much caramel for me.

Apples plus Cinnamon plus a bit of green tea makes this a fine choice.
★★★★☆
Different! A nice change of pace for someone who enjoys non fruity or floral green teas but likes to mix it up. Nice mid day pick me up for fall.
★★★☆☆
While this tea is very aromatic, the flavor is weaker than I would like. I'll enjoy what I ordered but shan't purchase more.
★★★★★
Deliscious fall flavor that is light. Add a little bit of raw sugar to sweeten!
★★★★★
This tea has a refreshing spice to it, but carries some cool and neutral tones. It isn t very acidic in taste, and is overall just wonderful.
★★★★★
Sooo good! I was worried about the “smokiness”, but it really is such a perfect addition to the other flavors here. It’s like autumn in a cup.

I loved this tea so much I preordered it for when it would be back in. I’m looking forward to receiving my 16oz of this in hopes that it will last the winter! I agree with some who have said that the apple and hibiscus are hard to pick out in the flavor mix, but this doesn’t bother me much because what I do taste is so delicious. The crime brûlée flavor does take the starring role in this and it is perfect. I will come back to this one for sure. Plus it’s green tea which I think is the best for you! I make it with 16 oz mugs. 2 teaspoons of tea, boil the water, let it sit for 7 min to hit temperature and then steep for 3-4 min. A bit of clover honey and the tiniest bit of milk and...bliss.

The dry smell is strong, of caramel/maple syrup. The flavor is more light, almost fruity. Pretty good.

With all the flavors, this blend taste like creme brulee with a nice burnt syrup taste.

This is a great sweet fall tea - mellow and cozy!

I made a pot of this to share with my mom, and she took one sip and said, 'I hope you made some for you, too!' This tea smells so amazing when you open the bag, and the flavor is pleasantly based in the green tea with, as my mom described it, a nice spiced apple cider flavor balanced with it. It's delicious, and a perfect autumn tea.
★★★☆☆
It's overly sweet for my tastes, and a little cloying. The creme brule flavor is overpowering, and there's nothing to cut it. Not my favorite blend by Adagio.
★★★★☆
I love the hint if smokiness along with the tangy apple and rose hips. This is starting to be a great addition to my mid morning break.

I love the smell of these tea leaves before brewing. The brewed tea is tasty, but I am unsure if I would repurchase.

Really good! I wouldn't have thought of creamy-sugary flavor plus gunpowder. It's a good combination. The overwhelming scent mellows out and the flavor is mild. As a bonus, the dry tea is extremely pretty. Update: Got this out of the freezer for fall again, and it's become my favorite fall tea. The aroma is fantastic, it tastes even better than I remember, and it brings back good memories of time spent with friends last fall.

I'm not 100% sold on this one. The caramel/crème brulee notes are super intense in the tin, but mellow out when brewed - a good point, but the overall flavor of the brewed tea steeped as recommended is rather weak. Will try again with an additional scoop and see if that makes the difference

Excellent buttery flavor from the brulee. Doesn t even need sweetener.

This is my favorite autumn tea. It has a light smokey sweet, almost maple-y flavor profile, without being overdone. I steep for 3 min, just under boiling, and drink with 1 tsp of honey. It's a perfect golden autumn day in a cup!
★★★☆☆
This was not my favorite. I had an expectation of subtly fruit, what I tasted instead was caramel. The flavor was pleasant, just not what I expected.

One of my favorites! A good green tea the additional flavors don't overwhelm the flavor of the tea.
★★★★★
This tea had an awesome creamy appley taste - very yummy
★★★★★
I really love this tea! The taste is wonderful! The creme brulee really comes out in the flavor, but not too much.
★★★★☆
This tea is not quite what I expected, but delicious none the less. It smells like maple syrup and my entire house was confused when I told them it was a green tea with apples and such in it. It is sweet and does certainly have a maple taste to it
★★★☆☆
Not my favorite tea, but not bad either. It has a syrup or molasses flavor to it. Drinkable but probably won't buy it again.
★★☆☆☆
Too much vanilla flavoring for my taste. I am not a vanilla person.
★★★★★
My FAVORITE, so far. Very good taste to it, alone or with honey. The most refreshing, and well balanced green tea I have run into.
