very good not too sweet as i thought it might be. just the right amount of 'berry' flavor
I’ve never seen so many honeybush flavors until I came across this brand. This tea tastes as great as it smells. Can’t wait to try more honeybush teas!
I tried this blended in equal parts with honeybush vanilla and honeybush chocolate and it was amazing. I added cream and a bit of acacia honey and it was a nearly perfect cup of tea for me.
I did not like this tea. It tasted like cough medicine to me. I had my boyfriend try it and he agreed. It was hard to swallow.
If brewed hot as directed it is a deep red color with a strong cherry Ludens smell and taste. If cold brewed the color, smell and taste are all lighter. Even though I actually enjoy the taste of a cherry Ludens (brings back childhood memories) I prefer it cold brewed for the more subtle flavor profile.
I had an allergic reaction. None of my known allergies are listed on the ingredients list, but I suspect cherry in the Natural Forest Berries Flavor. It tasted fine, though.
Perfect fruity herbal tea to replace those sugary juices.
This was a nice tea to drink before bed, very comforting and the berry flavor hit the stop, bright and sweet.
Unfortunately, this tea's not a favorite of mine. There's something about the flavor that I'm not a huge fan of.
I loved this tea. It was the first Honeybush tea I’ve tried so I was bit nervous about what to expect. I loved the sweet and fruity notes plus the fact that it was a milder herbal tea. Definitely liked putting the rock sugar in this one with a spoonful of honey. Very impressed, will reorder.
I love honeybush, and I think the wild berries made it perfect for summer!
Not bad. I like honey bush chocolate better though
I got this hoping it would taste like a decaf honeybush equivalent of Forest Berries, and it is! The honeybush provides a sweet, woodsy base for the berry flavor. I like it with milk, but it's also good without.
This was so so delicious, the berry flavors come through bright and vibrant and the natural sweetness of the Honeybush tea really helps them pop! I added a little sugar as well but thats just because I have a sweet tooth - this tea is plenty flavorful without the additional help!
I really enjoy this tea. I like it even better as a hot cuppa. No sweetener needed.
This tea smelled amazing!! The taste was a bit soft would have liked it a bit darker but not a bad cup of tea!
I usually like complex teas but these flavors fought each other instead of working together. It was ok but I won’t purchase it again.
Unfortunately it's not a favorite of mine, there is just something about the flavor that I am not a huge fan of, maybe its the honeybush or the berries that are used but either way, not my favorite.
Lovely Barry flavor. Honeybush teas seem to be a favorite of mine. Haven't tried one I didn't like
This made an alright iced tea blend, but I don’t like it as much as some of the other Berry teas that Adagio sells. Try a sample though.
Very strong smelling tea. Raspberries the most. This would be great as an iced tea. Taste of raspberries the most.
One of my absolute favorites!!! Even my 14 year old loves to sit down with this berry flavored tea! It’s a winner for us!
A fantastic berry/fruity blend. I’m not a part of team Rooibos, but I really enjoy it’s cousin, Honeybush. As this one cools, it seems to taste better and better. It may be a bit weak on the berry, so if you want a fruitier punch, steep a bit longer than recommended or use more tea to water ratio.
I love honeybush and this was pleasantly fruity. I mostly got blueberry, and would like to have tasted more fruit; however, I would happily drink it again. (Reviewed through CommuniTEA; 5 min @ 212F)
This one was alright. After steeping for 6 minutes, it was mostly honeybush with a hint of fruit. I think honeybush fits better with more dessert teas like Honeybush Banana Nut or Blueberry Pancake. It was alright in this blend but I think I prefer the other herbal teas due to the stronger fruit flavor. This tea didn't need any sugar to taste good.
I don’t quite get a fruity flavor from this tea, but it is pleasant iced.
Maybe it's because I'm so used to berry teas including hibiscus in the blend but this one could use a bit of the dimension that a touch of tartness can provide. However, this is an excellent blend regardless. I don't have a chance to try it iced but I can only imagine how delicious it would be.
This was a great tea with a nice berry flavor. I enjoyed how well the flavors went together.
This was a wonderful iced tea. I could definitely pick up the sweetness from the honeybush, but the tartness from the berry cane through as well. It was such a hot day I didn't care to try this hot, but I can say it was delicious iced.
This tea is incredibly yummy I brewed it warm and was going to drink it iced but it didn't last long enough to ice. Will do a second steep cold. Great fruity berryness!!!
The honeybush is always lovely, but I wish that the fruit flavors came forward just a bit more.
Let it steep longer for the berry flavor to become more pronounced. I like it best Iced and sweetened with honey.
I sampled this tea as part of the CommuniTEA (June 2020 box).
I love a good honeybush tea, and I was delighted by how well balanced this tea is. The honeybush, berries, and rose all got equal stage time, which made for a wonderful concert of flavors.
I steeped it a little cooler than recommended - 195 instead of 212 - and that tamed the tartness and allowed the honeybush to shine through.
This tea is delicious, but there was an almost medicinal undertone that my palette just wouldn't shake. It smelled incredibly sweet, like a bowl of fresh berries with oatmeal.
Mild tea with a pleasant berry flavor. (5 mins @ 212°F)
Such a pretty blend out of the package, and steeps to a rose-color tisane. I cold-steeped overnight, then added a slight teaspoon of sugar to bring the sweet berry taste to the front. The honeybush flavor is subtle. No rose detected. Very refreshing.
Mild, sweet without sugar. Smooth and restful. Nice honeybush blend 💛
A surprisingly smooth and mild cup given all the scents and flavors. Good caffeine free option.
I really enjoyed this. The honeybush gave it a smooth, sweet base, perfect for the fruits.
I’m still new to honeybush, but of the ones I’ve tried in the past few months, this wasn’t an immediate standout. With that in mind, this was a nice fruit forward tea without the tang of hibiscus. If your looking for a caffeine free fruit tea without the tartness of hibiscus, this is a good option. Blueberry was the most prominent of the berry flavors in my cup.
I enjoyed this CommuniTEA packet iced. The honeybush adds a delicate sweetness to the berry flavors. Happy sipping!
This is a good one! I love drinking a cup of tea after work but I prefer caffeine free so it doesn’t keep me awake. This is one I’d find relaxing. I like the berry flavor mixed with tiny bit of rose.
This is a good tea, but also totally unremarkable. I drank the whole cup and kept looking for flavor. Berries? Maybe? A little sweet, a little tangy.
Wonderful berry tea with a hint of rose that isn't tart. I mostly taste strawberry.
Very nice, smooth blend. The honeybush is a great base for the fruit flavors. it's got a nice body and light aroma and is a hug in a cup! Great, relaxing evening tea.
Loved that this sample had strictly berries and Honeybush and no hibiscus. Don’t get me wrong, hibiscus in tea is almost always a given in an herbal but it’s nice to sometimes not have it in an herbal tea.
It's rather bland and muddled. It has a sweet scent and looks lovely, but it's just not to my tastes
This was pleasant and had nice berry flavor, but I felt kinda 'meh' about it. I had it iced as part of communiTea.
Was a bit nervous when reading the CommunTea packet as I had never tried honeybush and am not a fan of it's relation, red rooibos. The tea had a pleasant, berry scent with a nutty undertone. The taste was light but nicely balanced both hot and chilled. Not my preferred cup o' tea but nice to have for a change.
Rose aroma and taste blended with berries was just a weird taste combo for me. I tried hot and cold, and just didn't care for this blend. Those who enjoy rose in their tea might really go for this. I did not. Just meh for me.
