The sweet creaminess and maple flavor is refreshing and comforting on a cold day. The maple flavor isn't too strong. I sort of wish this was in a black tea for more of a caffeine punch.
We've blended the smooth clean taste of oolong with the subtle sweet flavor of maple and rounded it all off with a hint of creme.

This is one of my favorite breakfast teas. There is the perfect level of maple, so that it hints at the essence of a pancake breakfast but the flavor is not overpowering.
Solid tea but was a bit more on the sweet side than I would have thought.
An extremely nice tea, aroma coming out of the package was sensational. Stands well on it's own. Added a quarter tsp of sugar and brought it over the top.
Smooth and sweet, tastes like a pancake breakfast.
Loved this one. Would also purchase again. Nice maple flavor.
Smells sweet, some spices, cinnamon and cardamom.
R - cardamom forward. E - very sweet. J - syrup flavor without the sweetness.
I don't know that this tea has a profound maple flavor. That said, it's sweet and smooth and delicious.
Loved this! Part of my first purchase with this company
Super cozy. I don't have a maple creme oolong tea very often, but when I do it's peak comfort drink.
A desserty treat that I reserve for weekend mornings. Very creamy with a nice maple taste and balanced flavor profile and cinnamon compliment.
This is nice but I can only take so much of it. I like maple, but I also like tea, and I can barely taste the tea. I have on occasion sweetened my own unflavoured tea or coffee with maple syrup, and even that isn't this intense. This is like being slapped in the face with a box of maple creme sandwich cookies.
loved this blend. dont steep more than 5 minutes or else is gets bitter very fast. great maple tea its like im eating syrup
Love, love this. I have this in the early afternoon- or have it as my breakfast tea. The maple flavor makes it tasts almost 'sweet'. Along with the creme, it is a smooth tea. I usually have my tea with milk or creme- but this maple creme tea I don't have to add anything else.
This is delicious! The spices are on point, stong but not overpowering.
Slightly sweet for my liking but worth the try either way
Oh my gosh! You must try this one! I love maple and there is just enough of a hint!
Yum! Maple is one of my favorite flavors as long as it's not too overpowering. This certainly is not. Perhaps the creme mellows it out a bit. I just know that this falls under my scrumptious category!
I love the scent, it's like a spiced maple syrup! This tea didn't need sweetener, but I think brown sugar boosted the flavor a bit, of which I am very pleased with. It's kinda creamy and you can taste the maple. And, for once, I didn't add milk!
What a beautiful sip... the flavor of maple plays perfectly with the taste of the apple and spice. Its a bit like adding maple syrup on a sweet apple crisp.
this is very good to sip. I did add a tsp of maple syrup to really bring out the flavor. Reminds me of those fantastic maple cookies. MMMMMMM.
I’m not too crazy about this one. It had a strong fake artificial maple in it. Will not order this one on the future.
So many wonderful flavors! I really love all the large pieces of this and that all mixed together. It is as pretty as it is delicious.
This is a tasty oolong blend. There is a balanced amount of maple and crème flavoring. I would happily drink this one again!
I wanted to like this one more than I did. The aromatics is 100% maple syrup but the tea itself just did not hit the right notes for me flavorwise. However, it was still a nice cup of tea, the oolong flavors just seemed a little overpowering.
This tea had warm hints of maple and crème as if you dipped a pancake in your tea. It was delicious.
Update: my latest purchase of it lately leaned a bit much towards cinnamon, and I honestly struggle to notice much if any of a maple creme flavor...hopefully just a bad batch that wasn't quite on the spot.
Currently one of my favorite flavored teas. It hits the note pretty well, and isn t overpowering. The only downfall I might see is tasting the apple flavor that comes through here and there as I don t feel that was the intent of this tea.
This is delicious. I enjoyed drinking this tea with a dash of sugar and milk. I wish I had not drank it all so fast, now I miss it.
Maple crème oolong isn’t bad tea but I prefer pure oolong
Like everyone else, I sampled this tea assuming it would be very pungently maple-y and sweet and I wouldn't be fond of it. The scent of the tea in the bag immediately reflected my worries. I was so jarringly shocked at how subtle and lovely the maple is compared to the smell. This flavor really is just a lovely maple chai. The creme already in the blend was enough for me to not add any milk and it was sweet enough to not want sugar (but it certainly would be even more delicious as a latte). Steeped at 4 minutes like I treat most oolongs though steeping just a bit longer at maybe 6 minutes would bring out more of the cloves and cardamom if you're looking for more oomph.
I might be a bit of a harsh critic on this one, but I was hoping for more of the maple and creme flavor to come through. Don't get me wrong, it's an enjoyable cup of tea, but I purchased solely on the 'maple creme' part, and that just wasn't coming through as strongly as I was hoping. I brewed my first cup for 3 minutes and that was far too weak, even though I tend to like tea on the weaker side. The 2nd cup I let steep for 5 minutes, and that was a far better cup, but still lacking on that maple creme flavor I was hoping for. Would I buy this again? Yes. But I was looking for a dessert tea and this was more of a daily-drinker for me.
In the bag, this tea smelled strong and a bit bitter, with little hint of creme or maple, so I was skeptical. I noticed cinnamon, mostly. The first time I brewed some, I steeped it for almost five minutes and put in no sugar or maybe 1/4 tsp. It was bitter and not too appealing in my opinion. The second time, I brewed it for just three minutes and added a little too much sugar. But it was delicious. I will continue adjusting things as I go, but I think this is a pleasant combination of flavors and a good first experience with loose leaf oolong tea.
Just the smell of this alone is worth brewing. It brought joy to me every single time I made it. Highly recommend for people who want some maple in their lives without the sugar and calories.
I wanted to like this tea but it's just alright to me. I steeped it after boiling water for 3-4 min and found it lacking strength. The maple smell is more prominent than the taste, which was pleasant but I was hoping for more maple. Definitely doesn't have an artificial flavor to it which was good. I just wish it had a little more punch.
Soft, sweet undertones. Perfect for a winters day with a splash of cream or milk. If I'm feeling fancy I will add a pinch of sugar for extra sweetness
This is my new favorite tea. I can't stop drinking it! It's creamy and nutty, it's so comforting and I've been having a cup of it every single morning.
Not memorable, but that doesn't mean I won't try this again some time in the future! Ideally a great fall/winter brew.
Not necessarily above-and-beyond, but does deliver a nice flavor and could be a nice complement in the mixes.
Bought this for my daughter, who is a big maple fan. She loved it! The maple was very subtle but definitely there.
This tea has a lot of flavor. The maple flavor comes out very strongly and you may be put off by it, but the tea not bitter rather its smooth. It's a really good choice, which is why I just bought it for a third time.
Dessert tea full of flavor! Tastes like a maple chocolate dessert!
My husband is obsessed with this tea and so am I. This one is a dessert in a cup!
Like drinking pancakes in the best way. The maple adds the perfect fall accent to a cozy cup of tea.
An absolute fall favorite! I add brown sugar as a sweetener, along with a splash of milk and it is my perfect addition to a Saturday morning breakfast! 🥞
Like pancakes and great plain with no sweetener or milk.
I was very excited for a mapley creamy tea !! anyway, I tasted and smelled more spice than actual tea, and unfortunately I am not a big fan of those spices. I'm sure if you like cardamom, and cloves (also chai!) I think you'd like it.
Maple flavor is light although black tea is black tea definitely enjoyed but won’t get it again
Faintly maple with just a hint of cinnamon. Sadly, you can't really pick up the cardamom or cloves. Reminds me of restaurant pancake syrup. Kind of bland on it's own, but improves with a splash of milk. Were I designing this blend, I'd definitely increase the quantity of spices.
The aroma of maple reached me as I opened my packet. The complex flavor of the oolong with its crip nutty notes and fruity and slightly sweet taste was a great base for the sweet flavor of maple. The result was a buttery sweet cup, that is very reminiscent of pancakes with maple syrup.
Maple aroma is extremely prominent on the leaves, less so on the brewed tea, and the maple flavour in the final tea is subtle. Held up to two steeps, but was pretty much spent after that. Very pleasant, subtly astringent, well-balanced. This tea does a good job of balancing out added flavour without overshadowing its oolong characters.
