This was good but wish it had more of a maple flavor.

This was good but wish it had more of a maple flavor.
I seriously love oolong tea, and I have a lifelong love affair with maple, so this is a match made in heaven for me. It's deliciously sweet and smooth, perfect for breakfast or as a dessert tea, and really doesn't need anything added to it. I occasionally add a little milk or cream as an extra indulgence, but it's just as good drunk straight. A favorite!
This smells great in the bag. I steeped it twice. The first time was @ 212 for 4 minutes and I added rock sugar. The color was beautiful, like maple syrup. The feel of it was smooth. The maple flavor could have been a bit more pronounced but it was a lovely cup of tea. The second steep I went with 205 for 4 minutes and used morena sugar. There was a bit more flavor this time. I think next time I drink it I will try with maple syrup and a touch of cream. Lovely tea. I look forward to enjoying many cups of it.
Smooth and Creamy, great with a splash of milk and breakfast
i actually wasn't prepared for the smell of this but DO NOT LET THAT PUT YOU OFF. it's very sweet, but not overly so and i really enjoy it with my morning apple and yogurt and it'll probably be an awesome snack tea!
I did not care for this tea. It's probably just a personal taste preference. I thought the tea had a very 'smoky' flavor with a bit of maple and cream. I really didn't get much of an apple or cinnamon flavor (both of which are ingredients listed). If you like a smoky flavored tea, you will probably like this tea: it just wasn't for me. I'm glad I bought the small sample pack.
Maple flavor is present but not overwhelming. This is a tasty tea but probably not going to be a repeat buy for me if only because maple is not my favorite. If you want the taste of pancakes without the pastry, get this for all your syrup-craving needs.
This tea smells like those maple-leaf-shaped maple sugar candies. Brewed, the tea is surprisingly flavorful without being too sweet. There is definitely a distinct maple taste, but it doesn't taste like tea doused in maple syrup. I've had pancake-themed blends before where the syrup is too sweet and takes over. Maple Creme Oolong is nicely balanced, with some nutty, earth tones from the oolong, a smooth creamy mouthfeel, and gentle, almost herbal, maple flavors.
This tea smelled so promising but was a bit disappointing. I added a bit of honey which helped bring out the flavor. It's a nice tea, but I was expecting more of a maple taste.
Absolutely LOVE this tea! Such a smooth maple flavor with a creamy finish. Highly recommend!
This would probably be good with chestnut flavoring also.
A very smooth and sweet oolong. Warm and comforting on a cool morning.
So yummy. Love the maple flavor and smooth finish!
Did not really have the smooth maple flavor I was hoping for. Strong spiced flavor - not really a favorite.
I wasn't sure how I would like this tea but it is a wonderful evening tea. It has a rich taste that is great on a cold night.
Super yummy and smells so good. This tea makes me happy
Pretty good, takes some work to pull just right flavor from it. Sweet, definitely maple, with the traditional black tea roast underneath. With milk it s very satisfying.
The maple flavor isn't as strong as I thought it would be, tastes great paired with Irish Breakfast
A very tasty tea, i would prefer if the maple was more pronounced.
Pretty good on first taste, I was expecting a bit more maple flavor to come through. But all in all a nice aroma and tea.
Delicious tea with a slight maple flavor. I drink it without sugar and enjoy the subtle sweetness.
I’m not a huge fan of flavored teas but this one sounded too good to pass up. And it did not disappoint! It smells delicious. And the maple and creme flavors come through without being overwhelming or tasting artificial. You can taste the oolong base but it also does not overwhelm. It was a good choice of tea to use in this blend. If you’re a fan of maple, I can definitely recommend this!
Subtle but notable maple flavor. Perfect for Fall. Excellent with milk and sugar.
Delightful maple smell in the bag, but the flavor of the tea itself isn t especially strong. Adding a splash of milk brought out a little something, but still not the flavor I was expecting.
Smells great, but I was given the impression that this would be in a tin package and they are not. Very tacky pqckage. However the tea is tastey.
Pretty much the best tea I've ordered. The fragrance is delightful and the taste is mellow.
It wasn t terrible, but I didn t get much of a maple or an oolong flavor from this tea, even after adding maple syrup. It was a little weak for my tastes, though it smelled wonderful.
I am having this tea this morning. Oh how good it is!! I had a bowl of cereal with it, but a slice of bacon would have topped it off. Love the maple flavor!!
Very tasty. The maple flavor was a lot lighter and creamier than I expected. Still not a big fan of maple, but this tea is quite good.
I was really excited about this tea, but the maple and oolong flavors don t blend together that well.
I love the taste of maple teas!! So flavorable and not to sweet
Boy do I love this tea! Nice smooth semi-sweet oolong tea.
As much tea heresy as it is... add a little bit of milk to this, and it becomes absolute heaven. I went though my sample in days, and already ordered a much larger size. This is a great tea on cold blustery nights.
This was pretty good, but not quite what I was expecting? I was anticipating a more maple-syrupy taste, perhaps... anyway, it ended up being kind of spicy! The cardamom and cloves really come out in this blend. Enjoyable, but kind of sharp... a good way to wake up. Probably along with pancakes, because the smell in the bag reminded me a bit of pancakes (That was about the maple-iest it got.)
The maple is stronger than I was expecting in this and I'm not 100% sure I like that. Still very good and I found myself making a second cup.
This is what I d been misssing in my life, perfect with a little milk on a cold autumn day
I think this is a lovely tea for fall. Somehow adding maple syrup for sweetness ruins it.
As if I was going to pass up the opportunity to drink maple tea. And as one would expect from a maple tea, it s delightful! Sweet and earthy and warming, gently reminiscent of pancakes.
This one is a bit odd to me. I get hints of maple and spice, but not so much creme.
I was expected more of a maple flavor to it. It is a nice tea but I won't be buying it again.
So, so good. Like eyes roll up in your head good. And I wouldn t even consider myself a big maple fan. I take this with cream and very sweet. Second run of the leaves is noticeably weaker, but you can get a second half-cup that s as good as the first (I left it for an extra minute on round 2). I need a bigger bag of this.
Great maple flavor - definitely one of my new favorites.
This new tea has a wonderful aroma and flavor. The maple flavor is gentle, but definitely there. Love it!
Okay, so I’ve only tried it a few times but it’s just not doing it for me. Think I’ll try it while eating pancakes tomorrow morning and see if it’s working for me then.
I was really looking forward to trying this when I saw it on here. It smells wonderful, and it's great with a little sweetener too!
I was really interested in trying this based on the ingredients list. In the end I feel like I enjoyed the smell of the tea more than the flavor. Its still nice to sip on a chilly morning or afternoon, but I think that is all I can say about it.
So delicious! It's sweet, but also a little spicy from the cardamom, cinnamon, and cloves, which are a nice touch. It's great with a splash of milk.
The maple note is soft and sweet, and the oolong is just as described - a very clean-tasting tea, and quite smooth. This is a lovely tea for dessert. Not too strong, not too mild.
Doesn t have as much maple as I thought it would but it still is good. Reminds me of maple and brown sugar oatmeal when you add a little sweetener or sugar to it.
This blend tastes like pancakes! And smells fantastic in the bag and after brewing. I'm not a fan of oolongs, usually and you DO get a slight 'bitter oolong' nose, but that goes away when the flavor hits your tongue.
