Smells like banana nut, but has a less banana taste to it. Still very nice. Wish it had a bit creamier taste and some caffeine.
One sip of our Honeybush Banana Nut tea and you'll feel as though you're standing in the middle of your local bakery, about to take a bite out of a freshly baked muffin!

This tastes amazing would highly recommend trying it out.
I just got a little sample of this since I wasn't sure I'd like a banana bread flavored tea, but it's on my list to get a bigger bag next time I order! Pretty mild, but still delicious enough to satisfy a craving for something sweet.
The absolute best herbal tea, and the smell is amazing!
This tea has a fabulous fragrance! With honey added to app up the sweetness, it tastes like Golden Grahams cereal to me. :) This is a good thing!
This tea is my favorite non-caffeinated tea by far. It's delicious, and kicks your sugar cravings. Good for any time of day. Can't recommend it enough!
It is just like eating banana bread! It is a bit sweet, but I like sweet.
This flavor with an added boost of sweetener hits the spot!
Truly tastes like banana bread. An interesting flavor yet still a light tea. Something different but not an everyday tea for me. I think I would enjoy the banana flavor better with a black tea base.
If you love banana bread to the point that you want to try drinking it, this is the tea for you! Right out of the bag it smells like banana bread. Steeped in the cup it smells like banana bread. And it honest to god tastes like banana bread. The natural sweetness of the banana is offset by the nuttiness of the chestnuts.
I am IN LOVE with this tea! I have it with just a splash of unsweetened almond milk. In my mind, it makes the perfect dessert. I think it tastes a bit like a good banana nut muffin. Delicious!
I was looking for a good dessert tea to have after dinner, but I kept running into the same problem--a lot of dessert teas are black teas, which I definitely don't want before bed! Then I found this tea and decided to give it a try. I hope it comes back in stock, because it is delicious! Smooth, with a lovely banana flavor that isn't artificial tasting at all! I didn't add any sugar, but I bet sugar would make this taste even more like banana bread.
Just like banana nut bread. Excellent tea. Thanks adagio!
I'm sure others would love this. The flavor reminded me too much of Quaker Oatmeal Apple Cinnamon instant oatmeal. I definitely tasted more apple than banana.
I was skeptical when I ordered this but gave it a try...it was a Very pleasant taste treat...banana flavor is hard to bring out but Adagio succeeded...it's truly banana bread in a cup!
I’m currently sick in bed with the flu (yes, in friggin May), and this tea has been a LIFESAVER! As someone who is not a big fan of chamomile, the perfect comforting sick tea has always been elusive to me. My boss got this as a sample and I tried it, fearing it would have a weird fake banana taste. Thankfully it tastes just like banana bread! So I ordered my own and when the flu came knocking on my door, this tea plus honey has been a great source of comfort for me.
I hesitated to try this when I was told it tasted like banana bread which I actually love, but in liquid form, that didn’t sound appealing. Adagio got it right on this one. It might be a nice dessert tea for some. For me, it takes care of my sweet tooth. I added about a 1/4 tsp of the Amber sugar. A cup of this will comfort you.
This tea was fantastic, tastes just like banana bread. It has gone into my regular rotation.
Fantastic sweet and warm flavor. Banana hints without being overwhelming.
This tea is AMAZING! The flavor is very bold and satisfying. I like to drink it when i'm craving something sweet!
Low end of OK. Not sure why I ordered this one... banana flavored tea
The aroma of this tisane is delectable and sweet like the baked goods it is trying to revere. The flavor is significantly more mild, with mostly just the flavor of the cinnamon coming through the honeybush. As a person who does not sweeten my tea, I assume this is a factor. A little bit of sugar could very well bring out the banana flavor more in this blend.
The aroma of banana was quite strong in the packet, but once steeped, all of the flavours come together for a pleasant well balanced tea. This tea made me want to have it for breakfast or first thing in the morning. I added an extra pinch of cocoa nibs. Definite thumbs up.
If you like banana flavored stuff, you will love this. The flavor is perfect. It tastes very natural unlike some other brands of banana tea I have tried. I will definitely keep ordering this.
Really lives up to the name. Probably one of my all time favorite honeybush/roobios teas
Very true to smell, it smells sweet, rich, nutty and not artificial. It even smells a bit like maple syrup. It tastes SO GOOD, like a maple banana muffin. Really satisfies the sweet tooth.
AMAZING!! It smells and tastes just like Banana Nut bread. I use a little bit of white rock sugar to bring out the flavors. Not much is needed a little bit goes a long way. It’s definitely a great tea if you’re craving something sweet but not wanting the calories. The flavor isn’t over powering either.
This was a sweet and tasty rooibos. Great with honey and best hot with a little pastry.
I gave this tea 5 stars because it is one of my favorites! It's sweet but not overwhelming, very smooth, and fantastic as a dessert.
LOOOOOVE this! The banana isn't too much and the chunks of banana are just enough. Some blends from other tea companies are so chunky that you have to use so much product or sometimes their isn't enough. This one has the perfect ratio. It tastes like you are having banana nut bread. I have been mixing it with the Irish Breakfast and just a splash of vanilla creamer and it makes it that much better. It's almost like having flavoured coffee when i mix the two. I have been drinking this in place of coffee every morning since i ordered the sample. I enjoyed it so much that i ended up ordering a bigger size because i know it will be my go to drink if I'm craving something sweet. I think tea will be a better alternative to me having dessert :) Both my sister and brother in law who do not care for tea tried it and loved it
Delicious!!! Great flavor, and smells amazing, tastes just as good!
My first rooibos tea and I LOVE it. Seriously, I had no idea a tea could be so delicious and I'm not even a fan of banana. I made myself my 3rd up and experienced a real twinge of fear when I realized my sample was running low. I may be developing an addiction to this tea - it's amazing!
Outstanding. True to description, fantastic aroma.
Great flavor with a refreshing palate sensation! I recommend this tea for a great way to relax in the evening hours.
Sweet smell, not overpowering in the banana notes. Has a natural slight sweetness from the honeybush bark I am assuming. If you like banana nut then this tea is definitely a try. Goes strong for 3solid steeps before falling off. Definitely going to stay in my rotation, just wish it had caffeine for a morning cup.
this is FANTASTIC! it's a lovely strong banana nut bread flavor without adding any sweetener, and tastes just as good on a resteep. the aftertaste is pretty persistent, lasting me at least a few hours, which may be a drawback to some, but works for me
Very nice banana flavor with a hint of the hazelnut. It smells very strongly of hazelnut though.
it s weird how much I enjoyed this tea. the banana is pretty strong but it s followed by a light hazelnut flavor that is also paired really well with some chocolate honeybush.
Great flavor. I recommend for an after dinner tea.
It s warm, nutty and delicious! It tastes like oat meal! It s great for the morning... as long as you don t need caffeine, that is!
Every time I open this bag people want to know where the banana bread is lol. It smells sweet but the taste is nutty. Great tea.
What a way to first experience a Honeybush. It is delicious, smooth and really feels like a hug.
This tea is now one of my top 5 fav teas of all time. It’s like banana nut bread with a drizzle of maple syrup. It’s seriously just so good.
I have never tried a Honeybush tea before and this one is a winner! The aroma of the tea in the bag is amazing, just like a banana nut muffin. This will be a great dessert tea with a little sweetener added. Yum!
Just like banana bread in a cup. The people I shared it with said it was best described as “comforting”
Great flavor. i love drinking it in the afternoon.
One of my favorites. I add a bit of soy milk. I have also added agave
.
This is amazing tea. Tastes exactly like banana bread.
I love this tea! It is great with a little bit of honey and milk.
This tea so far has been one of my favorites from the samples that I choose. It is a very subtle banana nut flavor. I was concerned it would be overwhelming in the banana department and it is not! It is the best combination of banana nutty sweetness. What I also love about it is that it is pretty forgiving if you decide you can t take it and sip on it a bit earlier than the 5 min suggested steep time
