★★★☆☆

Gave to my mil for christmas. Enjoyed but not a favorite

★★★★★

I pair this with the white Ayurvedic chai. Wonderful!!

★★★★★

I purchased this tea as a sample, it is a nice afternoon pick me up with interesting flavors. I would purchase it again.

★★★★★

This tea has great chai spice that is dialed down just a touch with sweetness that mixes wonderfully with the raja oolong chai tea. It makes the perfect cup of chai without needing any added sweetner

★★★★☆

I like this one, but really it's rather middling. There isn't all that much there to recommend it. But it's a good tea and sometimes that's all you want.

★★★★☆

Mixes well with the raja chai. Excellent taste that compares with teavana st a fraction of the cost

★★★★★

I bought this with the raja olong chai and masala chai to try and recreate the teavana samurai chai. It's fantastic in the trio and on it's own. I think this one is my favourite of the three.

★★★★★

This has been my all day tea, it has a wonderful taste that isn't too light. I would highly recommend this tea to anyone looking for a boost of energy or just looking for a new flavor.

I’m obsessed with this tea! I can’t get enough of it. It’s sweet and spicy and perfect for fall or winter

★★★★★

If you liked Teavana's then is better. It's not as pineapple as teavana's was so it blend much better with other teas

★★★☆☆

Don't like as much as green and white chai. Has a bit of an after taste.

★★★★★

Very good !!! Close to Teavana's Samurai Chai that is no longer available. Will order again.

★★★★★

One of my favorite teas from all sources. It manages to be light and complex at the same time.

★★★★★

My brother and I made our first cups the other day! It was like a sweet warm oatmeal, full feeling and delicious.

★★★☆☆

This mate has a little bit to many flavors going on for me but my husband loves it!

★★★★☆

a fabulously tasty tea! I have had this before and forgot how much I liked it. a great alternative to my normal Ayurvedic Chai.

★★★★★

Great tea, I enjoy mine with a splash of cream to cool it down

★★★★★

I absolutely love this tea! I took the recommendation from another reviewer and mixed it with the Raja chai. It’s spectacular, I’ll need to buy a larger bag very soon!

★★★★☆

Blended it with Masala Chai. Really tasty together.

★★★★★

This is wonderful mixed with White Ayurvedic chai! Also spicy and delicious by itself.

★★★★★

I love the almond flavor to this tea! The cinnamon is also prominent, but I don’t taste a lot of the fruit.

★★★★★

I pair this with the raja oolong and recreate my favorite blend of all time. It’s great alone, too.

★★★★★

I got this one for my wife since I can't do caffeine right now. It looked and smelled similar to one I used to get. She really enjoyed it.

★★★★☆

Wasn t a complete replacement for the Tevana Samuari chai but it does the trick

★★★★★

Really enjoyed this light, fruity blend. Very pleased.

★★★★★

I added this to the chai and it enhanced the flavor!

★★★★★

In an attempt to reproduce Teavana Samurai Chai, I took the advice of a reviewer who suggested mixing equal parts of Masala Chai, Raja Oolong Chai, and Samurai Mate Chai. As I did with the Teavana, I added some Trader Joe's Organic Blue Agave Sweetener, poured in boiling water, and the result was a success. While not an exact replica of the Teavana target, it is quite good and an effective replacement.

★★★★★

I enjoy the various flavors that are blended in this tea.

★★★★★

I mixed with white Ayurvedic chai and added a little honey for a perfect cup. It’s spicy.

★★★★★

A morning favorite ! Delicious warm or cool, will order again

★★★★★

Did not expect to like this so much but I love this better than the chai teas I tried and it tasted amazing when mixed with the raja and white chai

★★★★★

I very much enjoyed this tea. It reminds me of the samurai from Teavana. If you do half this and one fourth raja oolong plus one fourth white ayurvedic chi you get pretty close. I also get complements in the office that it smells good.

★★★★☆

Samurai Mate is quite delicious. I really enjoyed the unique spicy flavor.

★★★★★

I absolutely LOVE this tea. I mix it with Raja Oolong and it tastes just as good, if not better, than what Teavana used to serve. I steep it with some amber sugar crystals. My all time favorite tea.

★★★★★

This tea is astronomically amazing! I had a similar tea through teavana. This was even better than teavana in my opinion! When I buy my next shipment, I’m buying this one in bulk!!!

★★★★★

My favorite . Mixed with the Masala Chai and it tastes similar to the teavana blend I used to buy and this has a fruity taste. Definitely picks me up when i feel blue.

★★★★★

I LOVE this tea. It's the perfect afternoon pick me up. Fruity without being cloying, bright, refreshing. It's light but also full of flavor. Would absolutely recommend.

★★★★☆

I bought this tea hoping to recreate the Maharaja Chai Oolong/Samurai Chai Mate Blend Tea by Teavana. The flavor doesn’t pop through as great substitute... but it is still a pretty good blend. I keep it pre blended with Adaigo’s Masala Chai and occasionally add this to Raja Chai. Raja is the best standalone substitute for those looking to replace the teavanna blend, but by adding my own concoction here I can still get the sweet fruit accents with the powerful cinnamon punch I have been missing. Honestly, Adaigo is superior to any tea company out there currently as well as the one we lost.

★★★★☆

This one was not what I expected. I had been hoping for my “spice” but did enjoy the “fresh” taste of this tea.

★★★★★

I blended this with the White Ayurvedic Chai in an effort to recreate the Teavana blend that I loved. I was definitely not disappointed. This tea isn't exactly the same, but it is absolutely delicious.

★★★★★

Got it as I used to be hooked on Teavana's version. Have to say I'm impressed

3 min steep · 180°F

★★★☆☆

It wasn't as flavorful as I had anticipated. Overall ok

5 min steep · 150°F

★★☆☆☆

This is a slight (very slightly) better then the white ayurvedic chi. I tried both teas separately and mixed (hoping to mimic the teavana i used to get.) Was nothing like it. Once again very disappointed and spent $50+ on tea that doesn't even taste like tea.

An instant favorite! Mate teas tend to be my go-to to sip on during long nights at work, and this is what's been in my cup!

The fruity notes are playful and there's enough kick to it to make it interesting.

One of the teas I bought for my brother-in-law to get him started on Adagio!

★★★★★

Their Yerba mate tea line is the best! This tea blend is delicious. It has a lot of spice and Fruity hints

★★★☆☆

This just wasn't for me. On the fruity side, as expected. Those that enjoy a good mate I'm sure will enjoy this tea as Adagio is top notch!
