Pink and nutty! Always Nuts is a pretty pink herbal infusion with yummy nutty notes, a hint of sweet cinnamon, and a touch of creaminess.

I really enjoyed this tea. A wee bit too floral. I would buy this and pick out the floral bits a tad. I love the nutty-cinnamon flavor and it has a pleasant aftertaste.
Wonderful flavor of nuts and apples. Reminded me of fall. Adding to fav list
Was a good tea, but not one to blow ur mind. The flavor of the nuts, cinnamon and the brightness of the rose hips/hibiscus were there. I didn't taste the creme Brule flavor.
Just finished a sample bag of Always Nuts and I think I am chemically addicted, I could not put it down. Slightly fruity, and a nuttiness that’s not overpowering; the buttery finish is a showstopper. I love it!
Always nuts will make you feel like you are indulging in a dessert. This decadent blend has a rich aroma of almond and caramel, and a smooth and sweet taste of apple, cinnamon, and cocoa. The rose hips and hibiscus add a touch of color and tarness, while the cocoa nibs and creme brulee flavor add creaminess and chocolate goodness. This tea is perfect for winter, or whenever you need a treat for yourself. Always nuts will make you crave for a delicious nutty cake.
This is my absolute favorite flavor. In the bag it has an intense cinnamon/caramel scent that I can only describe as soft cinnamon pretzels in a mall. When steeped, it is a lovely dark pink and apple can be noticed. The taste starts with just tart enough apple that evolves into a lightly sweet caramel and cinnamon. The rose hips very easily overpower and I do not recommend steeping the full 5 minutes as it gets overbearingly tart, 3 minutes is perfect.
Smells quite different from how it tastes. Smells very almondy, but the taste has a tang to it almost like apple cider.
This had a very strong Creme Brulee flavor and smell. not really sure what else I got from it warm. Sweetness helped bring out some of the nuttiness.
This is a great after dinner tea that smells and tastes wonderful. It’s great with no sweetener but, with added sugar, it tastes like a warm autumn pie.
Super warming a comforting. It was creamy and nutty while still having a bit of an acidic kick. Delicious with cream and honey. A new favorite!
This tastes like French toast cereal to me in the best way possible! I LOVE THIS
this was the first time buying from adagio, I am so excited I found my new favorite! perfect blend for the nut lover
This isn't what I had imagined it would be like at all. Unfortunately I was unable to enjoy it so I gave the rest to a neighbor who hasn't yet tried it.
An unusual but pleasant 'herbal' tea. I would have never thought of making a 'nutty' tea, but this one is quite nice. If anything, I wish it had more 'nuttiness' and maybe less hibiscus.
Yum! A lovely hot cup of tea with nutty and fruity aromas. Neither overwhelming nor underwhelming cup of tea, just lovely.
Love this tea! Slightly sweet and so nutty. Very much my go-to herbal.
The smell was amazing and very tantalizing. However the hibiscus really stole the party and made the overall experience sub-par.
Very good evening tea to take the desire for sweets off the mind.
I absolutely love this tea! Warm, toasty and perfectly sweet. This has become a staple in my nighttime herbal tea rotation!
You know those spiced nuts carts/ booths you pass at farmers markets and craft fairs that smell so much like heaven you have to buy some? Well Adagio put that in a tea and it's magical!
My wife loves this! It is full bodied and delocious
Wow, the nutty aroma from the sample pouch is strong. Good representation of all the ingredients. Nice pinkish liquor, still smells very nutty after steeping and the smell has traveled through the house. Definite sweetness, mild tanginess, and the nut flavor is prominent. I'm undecided on whether I would purchase again, but will try a few more cups.
This is a very interesting tea! It evokes in me a cosy and calm feeling. It smells of delicious nuts and tasts like nut cake with a mild fruity flavor. I love it with and without half and half.
A year-round Nutcracker substitute. No rooibos, but that is very obviously what this is. Its flavors scratch that same itch, if you are into that nutty-sweet flavor.
I had this in and out of my cart for months before I decided to try it and was pleasantly surprised. My favorite way to drink this is brewed hot and then chilled. ( Straight cold- brewing doesn't work as well) The nutty flavor is nice; also makes a nice tea latte ( but use more than 2 tsp to make sure the flavor cuts though the dairy. The nut flavor also works well with maple syrup as a sweetener.
I like this sweetened with milk. The most recent batch I had tasted too sour and fruity, but I thought previous batches were better balanced.
One of my favorite teas. It makes the house smell wonderful, and it has all the nutty flavors that remind me of the holidays. This has become one of my must-haves.
One of my favorite teas. Slightly tart and tangy from the hibiscus and rose hips but also creamy. I make this tea frequently. It came in my CommuniTEA and I had to have more!
I have a new favorite, and it think it may even surpass my love of the Decaf Hazelnut Cinnamon Creme! This is truly fall in a mug. The apple, cinnamon, and hibiscus give a brightness to the richness of the almond and creme brulee flavors. Well balanced, sweet, and comforting with all the things I love about fall. The fact that it's herbal and I can have it anytime of day? Perfection.
Upon opening the bag the aroma was marvelous. Hot it reminds me of fresh baked apple pie. Was a little tart at first, added a 1/4 tsp of sugar moved it up a notch. Still a little too much apple. will try to thin the apples out next batch.
This one is interesting - kind of caramel-y in the way that the scent lingers, and a pretty shade of pink. I'm not very familiar with nutty teas so I can't pick that up as much, but it reminds me of toffee when I smell and drink it. A great tea!
I’m currently in iced tea mode, but this one is nice when I need a hot cup on a cool evening. It makes me look forward to fall!
I love this tea as a daily replacement for coffee. Full bodied and warming. I already bought a bigger bag.
This tastes pretty good, but overall was a bit acidic for my preference. I was really hoping it would be a nice substitute for a tea from another place (with a similar name) but I personally thought the Honeybush Banana Nut was tastier than Always Nuts.
A good tea, but I wanted more almond flavor, and more nut flavor in general. The fruit was a nice addition though.
Always nuts has a good nutty flavor.
This is one of my mothers favorite due to the nutty flavor.
One of my favorites for either a summer or winter evening. This is my go to when I want a coffee and can’t have one-lol. Full body with a welcoming and calming aroma.
This tea is perfectly spiced. I love drinking it at night and sipping it while I read a good book. It's very comforting.
This had a robust and nutty flavor but wasn't quite what I was looking for when I ordered it. It was fine, but it was just fine.
What a really different blend! I smell more than taste the nuts, but the taste itself is full-bodied on the tongue, hitting the sweet spot of tangy and creaminess. I'm always up for trying something different because it might just taste great and this one was worth the gamble.
I was expecting this to taste similar to David's Tea forever nuts but this had more of a tart taste to it and not very nutty.
It was ok but not a stand out for me- the flavors all seem pretty neutral compared to some other teas
This is another I tried because it sounded good in theory. Ultimately I found it a strange mix of almond with fruit. The proportion of apple did naturally sweeten it in a good way but has left my tea tin permanently sticky.
I really like it. It’s a very robust flavor with the crème brûlée and then almost butteriness from the nuts. I’ve still got a few more cups to go before I decide if I buy a bigger bag.
This is a nice rounded tea! I enjoy it a lot- I don't know if I'd say it's nutty, but I had it with a splash of heavy cream to really emphasize the cream flavors and it was so soothing and warm. I think I'll consider getting more of it sometime!
I needed to use 2 tsp per cup and I brewed it for 10 mins but the result was delightful. A good dessert alternative.
This reminded me of forever nuts from David’s tea but the flavor was weak. If I steeped it too long it got bitter.
Pretty good! Smells absolutely amazing out of the bag, told my partner at least twice I wished I could just eat the tea instead of steeping. Would probably be great as a short read flavor or something.
Worth drinking without sugar or milk which is unusual for me. Not an instant favorite but still enjoyable. Gave it a long steep.
Update:
Just kidding, I ordered a 3 oz bag. I guess it is a favorite!
You can't beat this tea for the aroma. It smells like a cross between the world's most decadent pancake syrup and candied almonds. Once it brews, though, I find myself adding brown sugar to bring out the fruit notes and give it some depth. Somehow, no matter how I prepare it, this tea comes out tasting like there's something missing until I sweeten it. It's like the creamy scent sets me up to expect a much fuller flavour, and while the aftertaste is divine, the initial flavour is almost watery. I'm happy to say that with a bit of sweetener it fills out and becomes a full-bodied dessert tea with a delightfully smooth finish that seems to linger forever, but I have yet to find a way to enjoy it plain.
