This is a great tea taste like banana bread one of my favorite tea. I enjoy this tea.☕️🫖
I think I accidentally left a partial review in the chat column…anyway, this honeybush is my all time favorite. It has such a wonderful banana nut bread aroma that it brings back many pleasant memories of growing up. So, with that said, this tea has been my all time favorite. It is also the very first Adagio tea I sampled 2 years ago from my friend, Dorothy Berry, an Adagio aficionado. It’s one of the few teas to which I never feel a need to add honey or sugar …it has so many flavors of its own. It doesn’t need a sweetener . Love this tea!
My tea taster says this one is a winner. Actually, I had banana bread to go along with it, which made a perfect duo.
This is a delicious blend of dessert-ish voodoo! What’s not to love? As others have said, it is essentially liquid banana bread. Add some sweetener and swoon away over this delicious caffeine free treat! Happy Sipping!
Wow!! This is delicious!!! It should be named banana split, because it is so good it's gone in seconds!! This tea is not second banana to any of the other flavored teas I have tried so far. I feel a little nutty that I am going bananas for this tea, I find it very ap-peeling! If you had 6 stars I would give them to this tea. ;)
The aroma of this smelled just like banana nut bread and it was such a nice treat!
This tea is very true flavor to the name. I enjoyed the flavor of this cup. I added sugar at first and that really helped bring out some more flavor and then I added cream . I think I prefer it without the cream however. For me to fully enjoy this tea I need to double the strength I believe. I used 12 oz of water to 3.85 grams. I think 5 grams would have made for a more enjoyable flavor. Unfortunately I do have a sample of this but it's at home not at work. I didn't think to wait to drink this one but now I know for when I open my sample.
I’m seriously craving banana bread! This stuff is yummy!
Avoiding caffeine?
Maybe counting calories?
this tea is your treat!
Or
Mamas been baking

Tracking down the scent

I lvoe this tea. it is the best I ever had. FGreat flaveor
This tea smells delicious and has a mild banana bread taste. I enjoy it, but don't love it as much as I expected to. I know I'm in the minority here, but it's too mild, and has too much of an apple undertone for me. I keep wanting to add a deeper bass note (like a smoky black tea base maybe) or more spices to make it more satisfying. That being said, I don't like sweet teas. If you like fruity teas, I think you would like this one. Most people seem to love it.
I’m glad I tried this one again. I wasn’t that impressed the first time I tried it, but this time I rather liked it. I was pleasantly surprised that it tastes like banana nut. Yum.
Updated from 2/20/21 Wow the strong aroma of banana and nuts wafts up from the bag as I open it. YUMMY! My mouth starts to water as the tea steeps into a rusty amber color. There is no aroma but the taste is a true dessert of very ripe banana, light cinnamon, and nutty chestnut. The honeybush provides a pleasing woodiness to the body of the tea, helping create a great balance with the flavors. As soon as I add 1 teaspoon of honey (to 10 oz) and some heavy whipping cream this tea suddenly tastes like a delicious banana nut bread, warm and right out of the oven! YUMMY, yummy, yummy! A “go to” tea anytime because it is caffeine free. This is so good I now own a larger bag of it.
(5 mins @ 212°F + sweetener and cream)
Great tea if you are limiting sugar and carbs...tastes pretty dang close to the real thing.
More maple than banana, but a great crowd pleaser. @adagioteas
This is a go-to afternoon tea as it has no caffeine! It reminds me of warm banana bread especially with a bit of frothed almond milk and sweetener:)
I love this one. Slight bitterness to it was a surprise but nonetheless one of my new favorites
Such a unique flavor. I thought it was delicious as an iced tea. Give it a try.
The Honeybush Banana Nut is the perfect late night sweet tooth tea!
This is extremely tasty. A slight hint of spice and sweetness, and the smell of banana. I'm very impressed, and ordered another pack.
This tastes like banana nut bread! It's excellent and has become one of my new favorite teas. Also, my friends and I have found that it works wonders on heartburn.
Has a cloying artificial taste that made my cup difficult to enjoy.
I love banana flavored just about everything. Bread, bananas, snowcones. I can now add tea to that list; sweet, full-bodied, and tea-y enough that it doesn't feel awkward to drink something so influenced by bread.
Exactly as described - smells like banana nut bread. So much that my coworkers can smell it. Feels like a treat. I've never added sugar - it's delicious on its own. Perfect on a cold snowy afternoon.
This is one of the most fabulous flavors. It's sweet on its own, but I add two drops of liquid stevia to my cup to give it just a little more. It tastes just like a warm freshly baked loaf and it's almost like having dessert; without eating a thing!
This is one of my favorite items. It tastes like warm banana bread.
This tea is sweet but not too sweet! I love that it doesn’t have caffeine.
This is a very good tea. When I first opened up the little sample and smelled it, it smelled like banana nut bread. Happy to say the taste is even better then the smell.
If I see this tea in a blend, I'm already excited. This is one of my favorite blends, and is definitely my favorite in the honeybush category. It tastes like banana nut bread in a cup, and the sweetness coupled with the caffeine free element means this dessert tea can be enjoyed any time of the day. It works especially well with honeybush chocolate!
A good tea for any time, but especially nice at night since it has no caffeine. It really does taste like a slice of banana nut bread and was for me enhanced by a drop of liquid stevia.
I enjoy this tea hot,the smell reminded me of the banana bread my grandmother made for me it
this is perfect afternoon tea in my opinion! i especially like it with a peanut butter snack
OMG. Tea as a dessert substitute, how awesome. This tea taste exactly like banana nut bread. So delicious!
This tea was in the advent calendar and I ordered more. It’s like a warm muffin in a cup.
It really truly does smell and taste like banana bread. Love this tea. It's a great tea to satisfy my sweet tooth when I'm feeling snacky. It is sweet and delicious.
Nice aroma, good spicy flavor with hints of banana in the background. Nice sipping tea
It smells lightly of banana, but not in a cheap, candy-ish sort of way. And the first mouthful is very breadlike. The only thing that docks points from this tea is that there is no pleasantly lingering aftertaste to enjoy. @adagioteas
I’m obsessed with this tea. Aroma smells just like banana bread, but flavor has a nice lingering honey aftertaste. Not overly sweet at all. Great with a little milk!
This blend is so good, The only downside aka why it didn't get a 5/5 is because I seriously wish there was a caffeinated version. Although I love the honeybush, I think that a black tea base could've carried the banana flavor a bit better.
Awesome tea with a slight banana nut flavor,I Would Like To Suggest more banana Nut..
Wow. This does, in fact, taste exactly like fresh-baked banana nut bread straight out of the oven.
Add some Yerba Mate and this is a great pick me up for a school teacher that is also diabetic and can not eat said banana nut bread, which this tastes well enough like. More so when a dose of fiery cinnamon is added as well.
Delicious! A great tea to drink before bed time. No caffeine.
Love this one! Like having a banana nut muffin in the morning
the aroma alone draws you in, it smells so good you want to eat it
WOW! This tea is amazing. One of my favorites on Adagio. Tastes just like banana bread. At first I wasn’t too sure how this sounded as a tea, but it’s great. Worth trying for sure.
Tastes like a banana nut muffin! I love the fun flavors in this tea!
This is my go-to for non-caffeinated tea. No matter what time of day, I always want banana nut Honeybush in my cup!
Love this one so much! The banana fragrance go so well with nutty
