I didn't know if I would like it, but it has a nice flavor, relaxing.
Savory almond with Taiwan oolong tea. Smooth, nutty aroma, full and rounded body, sweet marzipan flavor.

I didn't know if I would like it, but it has a nice flavor, relaxing.
While this tea tastes great, I need to be in the mood. The almond flavoring can be overwhelming...as if eating a whole bar of marzipan.
I had apprehensions from the moment I smelled this tea. It has a sickly sweet and very strong marzipan smell that reminded me immediately of pastry, but actually tastes more strongly of the oolong tea than the almonds. I enjoyed it more than I thought I would based on the smell, but probably won't buy again.
I LOVE this tea!!! It has a really great nutty taste and is very smooth. Has a very pleasant aroma. I added a bit of cream into it and it was wonderful!
Not bad but have had some I enjoyed more it was OK
This is very good but very strong! Almost undrinkable straight because the almond/amaretto flavor is so strong. It is a great addition to any blend though. A pinch of it added to fruit can naturally sweeten and add a maraschino-cherry taste. A small amount to a chocolatey tea can give it a slightly cakey taste.
All in all, a very solid almond flavor. It's not subtle, and a great addition to a blend that can be enjoyed both hot or cold.
This tea is absolutely delicious! The nutty flavor of the almond combined with the earthy taste of the oolong really meshed well together. It is slightly sweet because of the almond, which I found delightful!
Delightful tea. Almond is quite fragrant too. Very nice!
This tea is yummy. I made some as sun tea, in a gallon jug, and within a day, it was all gone. My daughter loved it too.
Taste great smooth and makes tea enjoyable great! Love it
I can't say this is my favorite oolong blend - the almond taste isn't overbearing, but it's quite artificial to me in the aftertaste. That might just be me though. It certainly does have a marzipan smell and flavor, and I'm not a marzipan fan (I received this blend as a free sample, and I'll try any tea once!). I'd have expected some roasted almond pieces or something else to impart a more nutty, earthy taste rather than a saccharine sort of taste. It's not a bad blend though. I imagine it works better being blended with other teas, as I've had this in multiple fandom mixes before.
Great Flavored Tea, Mild yet also stands out flavor wise.
To me the tea has an odd smell. It smells more sweet than like almonds. The taste was great. A nice oolong flavor finished with a slight aftertaste of almonds.
This tea is fantastic, and satisfying and a flavorful end to a meal, or alone as a treat.
Both my husband and daughter absolutely love this tea! Smotth, nutty flavor, no bitterness, wonderful aroma!
I was expecting a nuttier flavor, and was disappointed that it has more of a cherry/marzipan taste.
Though I really enjoy almond, this tea was only okay. Neither the tea nor the almond was as strong as I like.
The almond flavor was nice and light. I didn't taste much oolong. It felt more like a black tea.
I really liked the almond taste -- I used a bit of Splenda so it was sweet, like a cookie -- but the oolong didn't color the water for a third steeping. I'm used to getting at least three steepings out of oolong. Well, it was good enough on the first two to get me by!
Tastes so good! Definitely recommend! Absolutely wonderful. I wishould it had more of an almond flavor.
Full bodied black tea with great almond flavor. Great as a breakfast tea or afternoon pick me up.
Almond flavor was overpowering. I tried reducing the time to the minimum, but no deal.
I love oolongs! And now Almond is one of my favorites. Great if you're a nutty person!
By far my favorite so far. This will be a staple in my home from now on.
The almond oolong was delicious. It is a relaxing way to wind down after a day at work.
I love this tea. I don't really know if it taste like almond, but it has a nice smooth taste and good flavor.
Kind of reminds me of almond cookies, and was pretty forgiving of my tendency to oversteep.
This is a sweet, kind-of dessert-y tea. It's really almondy, but without being overpowering. I'd recommend drinking it with a cookie to compliment its flavor!
Received a sample of this tea, love the almond flavor. Will order more
Excellent tea! Very strong almond flavor, and it's naturally a little bit sweet. Excellent hot or cold.
I got this as a free sample and I was really pleased! Almond flavor is not something I'd usually get for myself, but this is delicious. Desserty and pleasant, like amaretto without the bite. Great as a breakfast or after dinner tea.
Wow this was so so good! I paired it once with the vanilla oolong and wow. Delicious
I had high hopes for this tea as I'm a longtime fan of the almond rooibos, and I was not disappointed! The almond is lovely with the already slightly nutty oolong. Play with the steep time a little on this one, as I've found it doesn't get bitter as quickly as some oolongs.
Prefer plain tea more than flavored--nice for a change though.
Arrived quickly. I was expecting a little box, since this is my first time ordering, however it comes in a little resealable bag which is great since I don't really have a container to store loose leaf in. It smells wonderful. I recently broke my loose leaf tea ball and have to wait until I get another before I can try this though.
I don't usually like anything too sweet and will usually choose a bitter taste over a sweet one but the delicate, marzipan-like taste of almond oolong makes this tea one of my absolute favorites. I get excited every time I brew a cup. It has a truly unique flavor and I love serving it to guests, who are always delighted and want to get some of their very own.
Is it weird to say drinking this tea was like having a mouth full of almonds? Because if not, this tea was definitely delicious.
very aromatic and smooth. This came to me as a sample and I'll definitely be ordering more. Love this tea
I love mixing this with other teas for great flavor
I'm not always a fan of the nutty or sweet teas but this one really won me over.
I got this as an add on and it is amazing! My new favorite!
Its lightly nutty, and has that full oolong taste
I love this tea, it smells very strong before steeping buthas just the right flavor when properly brewed. The almond comes through through very strongly.
I combined this with Dewy Cherry to create my own cherry-almond tea. Oolong is a favorite and almond is the perfect complement to its bright warmth.
The flavor on this tea is amazing, really delicious and flavorful, I loved it. But I didn't pay attention to the label (it was a free sample with my order), and it is REALLY caffeinated (at least it is to someone who has problems with caffeine sensitivity). I spent the rest of the night and the next day feeling ultra ill and dizzy from the lingering caffeine. But I'd totally take a decaf version of this, because the taste was perfection.
This one wasn't for me. The almond smell right out of the bag reminded me of an industrial bathroom cleaner and while the almond TASTE wasn't overpowering once it was brewed, I didn't get the 'MmmMMmmmMMmm' moment I was hoping for. It ended up being rather malty for my taste. I still have some left of my sample so I will certainly give it another try, maybe less leaves so it's not as strong.
This tea has an almost-chocolate-like scent/flavor. Love it.
This tea is not one of the sweeter ones. If you want strong, no-fuss tea, this is a good one. Would recommend.
It reminded me of my favorite almond cookie. I enjoyed this tea very much!
too perfumy for me, but the almond scent faded after a while. A second run at this one did not improve my impression.Still like drinking perfume.
