Outstanding! I’ve been wanting to try this one and was awfully glad to receive it. This is a must have. No sugar or honey needed. A daily drinker.
Rich, warm vanilla with the honeyed aroma and gentle toasty quality of Honeybush herb from South Africa.

Smooth vanilla, I think the vanilla works here better than in the vanilla black tea, and I like the vanilla blakc tea. So, good, smooth easy to drink tea.
I’m not the biggest fan of vanilla but I do really like this tea. It’s a great herbal alternative to black tea. When it was hot there was definitely a lot of vanilla coming through but iced it tastes a lot closer to marshmallow!
Vanilla is a taste that I'm not terribly fond of in most things, but the vanilla here was not overpowering at all. Instead it is a mild flavor with a hint of sweetness from the honeybush. A pleasant aftertaste and a comforting cup of tea.
5mins at 222°F I don’t care for honeybush teas normally as I feel the aroma overpowers the rest of the tea experience. The vanilla flavor is present in each sip, but not apparent at all to my nose. It’s underwhelming to me, but I am historically not a fan of honeybush so I can’t in good conscience rate this lower when it’s just my own personal taste. If you like honeybush teas, you will likely love the vanilla addition here.
I really enjoyed this. The vanilla flavor was light and tasty. I am a fan of honey bush Teas.
This is a nice blend. The vanilla and honeybush play well together. The end result of their blending is a warm, mellow tea that tastes both nutty and of vanilla. Personal preference - meh. I'm not a huge fan of honeybush. Overall? It's a excellent blending if you enjoy honeybush and I can see how so many people have fallen in love with this one. (212°F, 5 minutes)
Perfect tea to help celebrate the sweetness of the day. It is like a warm sugar cookie in a cup that you can enjoy all day long, guilt free.
Wonderful! Smooth and perfect for an afternoon treat or a nice cup before bed.
I didn't expect to like this, as I don't really like sweet teas. However, the creamy vanilla sweetness is mild and smooth and this was a delight to drink. I can see why so many people recommend this as part of blend.

I like honeybush in tea blends, but I don't think I've ever tried straight honeybush tea before. I enjoyed its light smell and subtle Vanilla flavor.
First, this tea smells amazing. You get excited for it just opening the packet. Great vanilla flavor without being too sweet. Nice finish with a smooth after taste.
A very smooth, light vanilla tea. Quite enjoyable. I liked that there wasn’t much rooibos flavour - made for a great, well rounded cuppa.
One of my no caffeine favorites. A warm mellow honey like taste with a nice natural not to heavy handed vanilla flavor. I love this alone and for blending with other flavors like orange or caramel.
Smell and color were delightful. Taste was incredible. Smooth and the taste of vanilla sang in my cup. Will definitely add this to my tea collection.
Delicious, this tea tastes like a liquid sugar cookie.
I am a honeybusy FAN and I also love vanilla... so this tea did not disappoint. I steeped at 212 for 4 1/2 min and it was light and delicious with no bitter/tartness.
This is a lovely simple tea. Flavorful without being overwhelming. Perfect as a non-caffeinated dessert tea.
This is good, nice creamy vanilla flavor! Definitely prefer this over the rooibos vanilla. Would make a good blend base; don't know that I'd buy it by itself.
Love me some vanilla, and this was no exception. Super mellow with a lovely taste.
I’m not really a Honeybush fan. I preemptively took headache medication as previous Honeybush teas give me a headache. The vanilla flavour was nice to this tea. Not something I will repeat.
I’m loving this tea. Thank you Adagio Communitea for giving me the opportunity to try new teas. This tea tastes like a creamy scoop of vanilla ice cream without the added calories! Yum!
When you first open it, the aroma is delightful, sweet and robust. Doesn’t transfer as well to the taste, but there is a definite Vanilla sweetness to it. Overall decent, not sure if it’s enough flavor for me to one back to it.
I've only ever had this in blends until today but it's really nice all in its own, too! It smells incredible and it has a soft, smooth sweetness to its flavor. Love this!
A warm, sweet, calming cup of tea. This would make a lovely dessert tea. The vanilla taste blends nicely with the honeybush tea.
Really enjoyed this honeybush vanilla, it’s a nice caffeine-free cup to warm and calm before bed.
I love honeybush vanilla, I’ve used it I use it in several of my blends, it has a nice mellow flavor and the vanilla is not overpowering. I love that honeybush is naturally decaffienated. This is the first time I’ve tried it by itself, and I find myself pleasantly surprised; it is very drinkable.
Yummy rooibos tea. I combined this with fav chocolate rooibos tea and voila the best decaf dessert drink ever!
I love this tea, a little honey and it is the perfect cup
Honeybush is one of my most favorite herbal teas ever.
One of my absolute favorite teas is honeybush-based, and I adore vanilla green, so I was excited to give this one a try! Unfortunately, this is one of the only samplers I've ultimately thrown out- the vanilla in this is cloying and artificial, like an unsweetened version of off-brand cake frosting in a can. Not sure what happened with this one, but it's not to my taste at all, just personally!
A nice light tea, just no my fave, as I prefer a stinger, bolder tea.
A strong vanilla flavored tea with a smooth finish. This tea is a great night time tea!
One of my favorite honeybushes. This is rich, but smooth and lightly sweet. It goes with just about anything! Great for having with desserts!
I love this tea so much. When I found out the tea company that I originally got honeybush vanilla tea closed down, I was desperate to find a replacement. Adagio teas exceded my expectations.
Creamy and smooth, earthy. Perfect to add to late night blends .
My absolute favorite adagio tea year round.
This was great! A nice sweet vanilla flavor- almost cookie-ish in smell and taste. I'm using it as the base tea to make homemade chai- and this was a favorite from a bunch of samples we got. So ordering a full amount now!
First time trying a honeybush tea and I'm definitely not disappointed! The smell was intoxicating and the taste was outstanding! Definitely one of my new favorite teas!
My all time favorite tea. It s sweet enough that I don t need to add any sweetener, which for an evening drink is perfect!
Very sweet tea good vanilla taste good to drink in the evening
It's ok, I don't get a lot of vanilla flavor though. I tried it in some blends too to add vanilla and it didn't work quite how I wanted.
I can’t decide if I love Rooibos Vanilla or honeybush vanilla more. I flip more every day. I love this as a nightcap. Warm beverages put me right bed at night.
Honeybush Vanilla is one of my all time favorite teas. I used to get it from Teavanna and then they went out of business. I have tried several other versions since and none have worked for me, until now. You have my business for this tea!
Vanilla really compliments the Honeybush, I'm definitely reordering!
The smell and taste each remind me of a 'nilla wafer cookie. Perfect with nothing in it!
Very simple vanilla tea and is very smooth and relaxing.
It's a great tea, very smooth flavour and great with some rock sugar.
Delicious and amazing tea which I enjoyed. Highly recommend it!
The Honeybush Vanilla has a light flavor. It is very good.
