Just not my type of tea maybe its good if you like pu erh teas. This is the first tea that I would say taste as it smelled.
Pu Erh with rich hazelnut and playful strawberry with a hint of cream.

I'm not really a fan of chocolate flavored teas, and this kind of had that... other than that, good.
A top notch Pu erh tea, this tea combines a sweet bark flavor with that of a very nutty hazelberry, almost providing a caramel like taste that is a little burnt.
You will enjoy this tea if you prefer something on the different side.It is not one of my favorites.
The smell of it can be a bit overpowering when you first crack it open, but the actual tea is absolutely amazing. It's got a kind of fruity/coffee thing going on. It's impossible to describe well, except that it's wonderful.
This one had me curious, so I gave it a try and was pleasantly surprised. A mild flavor like pomegranate, it's not as strong and doesn't get bitter like black teas sometimes can.
This is amazing and my favorite of the pu erh options. Its smooth and just a little bit sweet. I enjoy it plain and in blends.
This tea tastes better after it cools down and becomes lukewarm or cool. It tastes a lot better!
Not one of my favorite teas, I like the taste until the earthiness comes through.
My first cup of pu erh hazelberry was very hazelnutty and tasted like liquid pecan pie. My last cup of the pack was heavy on the strawberry flavor and was equally delicious. I have to remember to shake up this pack to even the flavors out before I drink it, but it's honestly delicious any way I make it. I usually steep it a little longer than recommended to get a stronger flavor. The great thing about pu-erh is that longer steeping times don't produce bitter liquor. Delightful tea.
I wasn't sure how the sweetness would match up with pu erh, but this is really fantastic.
Not overpowering at all. Very balanced flavor with no weird after taste.
Terrific introduction to pu-erh's for me: one sniff will hit you with hazelnuts and fade out with strawberries.
Nice, sweet blend. IMO, it works well with chais and herbals as well.
While this tea is great hot, it is even more fantastic iced. The earthiness of the pu erh keeps the berry flavor from being too bright and tart. The blend is very nice.
A nice tea to start my experience with pu-erh teas. A very nice blend of hazelnut and berry flavors, but the tea becomes very vegetal and woody as it cools (not necessarily bad, but a different flavor than when it's hot).
I really like this puerh. I wish I could say I was more of purist (puerhist). Like the woodsy smooth taste of the puerh mixed with the berry , chocolate and hazelnut.
I found this tea so interesting. it has a very creamy, sweet aroma. The taste has just a hint of berries and vanilla. Not an overly sweet aftertaste. very creamy and pleasant.
A delicious fruity tea, fantastic with a little bit of sugar. It leaves an afertaste of the hazelnuts, while during drinking I felt like I mainly got the strawberries and cocoa nibs.
Not quite for me. The strawberry and hazelnut were very smooth, and it was a good cup of tea. I am just not a fan of nutty teas, I suppose!
I typically do not like black tea but my goodness, I REALLY enjoy this one. Maybe because it's puerh. It is very smooth to drink and I don't have to tame it with honey. It is already very well-behaved and full-bodied.
This smells fantastic, dry and steeped. Tastes really good,too. Would recommend for anyone who likes hazelnut and the sweetness of strawberries.
This is the first time Ive tried Pu erh tea. Its interesting. Tastes a little like mushrooms to me but with sweetness from the hazel nut and strawberry. I prefer black tea but this was pretty good for a change.
I had high hopes for this tea. I love hazelnuts and berries, so was very excited to try this. When I opened the bag, it had an awful, funky smell to it. Trying to be open minded, I brewed a cup. The awful funkiness was in the taste as well. I'm not sure if that was the intent, but I won't be ordering anymore to find out!
This is incredibly tasty! It's the first pu'erh I've tried, and I love it. I like my tea strong and tend to oversteep my black tea trying to make it stronger, but this is a lot stronger and can oversteep without going bitter. It's smooth and earthy and sweet. the hazelnut is obvious without overpowering the tea itself, and the berry taste lingers around the edges. I'll be buying more when I run out!
I didn't quite know what to expect when I first smelled it (it smells amazing... very hazelnutty.) If I smelled that in a coffee, I would be turned off (I don't like flavored coffee... I like flavored tea.) I just brewed a cup and am drinking it now. It's really awesome, nothing like I've ever had in a tea. It reminds me a bit of a tea my mom bought throughout my childhood, so that takes me back. It's so smooth, nice aroma and great hazelnut flavor with just a hint of strawberry. This will be a regular, no doubt.
With a great nutty, earthy flavor, this tea is great for anyone who enjoys pu erh teas but needs something to make it taste a little less like a barn.
This tea smells amazing. I went around today telling people to sniff my tea, which is apparently weird. The hazelnut and the coco nibs really accent each other, and the strawberry was such a great flavour.
I absolutely love this tea! I've had pu erhs before that were completely overwhelming. This is nice and mellow. You really can't even tell it's a pu erh at all. Just a nice flavored tea that is exceptionally smooth and clean. The hazlenut flavor is most dominate with subtle fruity undertones. A favorite for sure! Good hot and iced with a little sugar.
This tea is a bit more grassy tasting (and less berry tasting) than I was really hoping for. It's not horrible, but the berry is extremely understated and there's a bit of a grassy taste that comes through more than anything.
I did not really enjoy this tea. Some people may like it but it's not for me.
My first foray into pu erh and this is a new favorite. It's sweet and just a touch creamy and absolutely delicious. If you're a fan of fruit-flavored teas, don't miss out on this one.
This is my new favorite tea. I love it! The tea is smooth. I notice the hint of cream and strawberry. The flavor combination is delightful and nothing like I have tasted before. I will be buying more of this tea for myself and for my friends.
My first time trying a pu erh.. I couldn't stand the smell of it, I tried brewing it and it tasted even worse than the smell. I couldn't really taste/smell the strawberry at all. I thought it sounded so delicious from the description and reviews and I really wanted to like it, but this tea is just not for me.
I looove this and will consider getting more. The fact that I love it even without sugar is great.
This is the most amazing tea! It tastes like a wonderful desert. It pairs so nicely with some heavy cream and sugar. So indulgent!
I have never had anything like this tea. It reminds me of the cream savers I used to eat as a kid. The smell is fantastic. Strawberries mixed with hazelnuts and chocolate. The taste is just as amazing. It's smooth and has a faint sweetness and a very faint earthiness. I really enjoyed this one!
For my first cup of pu erh this was quite good. I definitely found many of the subtle and not so subtle flavors. I most enjoyed this tea with a spot of honey.
I believe this was a free sample options and I am happy I choose it. It smelled amazing right out of the bag and that sent lingered after steeping. The hazelnut and berry taste is so pleasantly balanced. not to sweet not to tart, very happy unity.
One of my favorites! Smells so amazing as soon as you open the package, and the flavor doesn't disappoint. This one is so naturally flavorful that I can get away with just a little sugar, instead of a lot of sugar and cream like I do with many teas. Sweet and a bit nutty, pure heaven. This is the tea I like to 'show off' at work when people ask about my tea stash - I tell them, 'Smell this one and you'll see why I enjoy tea,' and their eyes go wide.
Smells great dried and brewed. On my first cup with nothing added, all I tasted was a nutty flavor with a hint of something I couldn't identify. I added some sugar to it after that which brought forth a distinct hazelnut flavor!
This tea is wonderful. The fruity flavor mixes nicely with the earthy notes of pu erh. A truly decadent experience, in my opinion.
Not what I was expecting, but still really quite good for what it is.
Pu erh is an acquired taste. This blend might be a nice place to start if you are unfamiliar with Pu erh teas. The 'fishy' aroma that some complain about isn't present in the hazelberry, yet you still get the earthy tones and a clear sense of what pu erh is all about.
Now this one, I am so glad I decided to sample, it is VERY tasty, the hazelnut tones really set it off and it is great for multiple infusions as well which is even better because that's when the cocoa tones start coming out and really melding with the other flavors, I like this one and it is very tantalizing to my taste buds.
This tea is pretty sweet, which makes it less of a breakfast tea and more of a relaxing afternoon tea for me. The strawberries and cream are definitely much more forward than the pu-erh
I liked it. At first I thought it was a little 'blah' but it has a nice, subtle sweetness that's perfect for blending something. Pu erh teas tend to have the best smoothness I've ever encountered, so when you blend them with harsher teas that tend more towards astringency, they do a nice little balance. This has less body than, say, pu ehr dante, but since it's already tilted towards sweetness, if you're blending a sweet tea you won't need to fight the really dark, earthiness of the dante.
The flavor of this blend was initially intriguing and became slightly less appealing over time as underlying earthy notes seemed to overpower some of the nutty sweetness.
As far as flavoring goes, the combination of the hazelnut, strawberry and cream works very well. It's definitely more hazelnutty than anything else. It's not artificial tasting which is impressive considering how much flavoring is added, but for some reason it's just not for me. There's really nothing particularly wrong with it... It may just be that I'm just not much of a pu'erh fan.
Surprising aroma. Very tasty. I use a cast iron teapot and let steep for 5 minutes.
