This is a really gorgeous tea. It is smooth, sweet and nutty in excellent proportions. Definitely grab some of this when it is in stick, delicious all tear round!
Smooth, rich flavors offer natural sweetness and depth. This is the ideal blend to sip by the tree, on a snowy winter's evening.

Great winter tea! The flavor is quite approachable and spice level is not overwhelming.
A new favorite with a toasty flavor and beautiful color. We stock up in the winter so we can enjoy it after the seasonal sale ends.
Delicious and great to sip all winter! Not too flavorful.
Okay tea. Definitely not my favorite. Drink it when I want a change of pace
This tea is AMAZING, definitely one of my favorites. I love the nuttiness
The flavors were good but there was a lot of sludge left at the bottom of every cup I brewed, no matter how fine the filter.
This is a great tea to have in the afternoon with a nice piece of dark chocolate. I enjoyed the taste of the hazelnut and hint of apple. Perfect tasting! Not too strong and not too mild.
Really nice rooibos blend. I would buy this again.
Love these flavors. My new favorite. Rich and delicious.
Great tea ! Add milk for extra smooth flavor. Great any time of the day !
Heaven on earth, Im hooked. Would like to have available year round!
I really enjoyed this tea. It was the perfect wintertime tea for getting cozy with a warm blanket.
Not as good as the Rooibos Pecan Turtle...this one was fruitier in taste.
I love this tea! It s one of my favorites. Try adding Bailey s on a cold winter evening-yummy!
Outstanding holiday treat! This tea is absolutely delicious. I'm going to start drinking this right after Halloween this year to extend the holiday spirit!
A great tasting tea that is great with a splash of creamer or over ice.
Nice holiday tea. Enjoyed this as part of a package purchase.
I love this tea; I wish it was available year round! Soft, nutty and sweet, I normally drink this while reading a book. Very calming with a nice aroma. I'll have to buy a bigger pack next time it becomes available!
A great caffeine free blend. Would definitely drink this one again.
Makes a nice dessert tea when some rock sugar is added
This is my new favorite. It is nutty and yet smells like Christmas. What could be better?
I'm torn about this one. I like the flavors. I think this is one of the best 'Christmas time for rooibos tea drinkers' teas on this site. However, that having been said, I inherently cannot be satisifed with sweet/spice-based rooibos drinks. Rooibos is too bright and fruity for a tea base for me to wrap my head around that.
But if you're a fan at all of the sweeter, spicier rooibos teas on this site... this will probably be a new fav.
Much more than an adequate blend; brings about some tasteful elements of a rooibos along with a nutty and soft cocoa undertone without overshadowing the signature tastes in each too miserably. In other words, the articulation is just about right, elaborate, delicate, poetic. This is a quintessential winter tea: a blend between 'enjoy the little things in life' and 'live life in the present'. It contains 0% of 'I cannot wait for Spring'.
Smooth and sweet tea. Warm and sweet, can't get enough warm or cold.
Lovely blend of rooibos and light fruit flavor-and the cornflowers are pretty.
even though it's officially spring i love drinking this and having a sense of calm winter
Loved this tea! It went by way too fast. I enjoyed it black and loved it with some cream and a little hazelnut creamer.
A delicious treat for Christmastime (and a great alternative to coffee if you add a bit of milk!) It's very sweet, with caramel being the main focus- while the other flavors complement it beautifully. There's a lot of different tastes here, but they don't clash or compete- instead they all dance together inside your mouth and work their magic. It's the perfect tea for the wooden Prince, and will definitely win your heart!
Love this seasonal tea. Just a little bit nutty, and a lot delicious.
Gifted a sample of this to a friend who was delighted with it, and thought it was a fantastic blend of 'holiday season' type flavors.
This is one of my favorite teas! Slightly nutty a little sweet. Excellent just as it is or with a little sweetener
It s very reminiscent to Rooibos Pecan Turtle in both smell and taste with its nuttiness. I consider this to be fuller and richer than Pecan Turtle though. It's very rounded in its flavor.
Like a warm hug filled with all the goodness you want in an after-dinner cup of tea.
Naturally decaffinated. Taste like caramel and chestnut. One of my favorite tea to drink all day long!
One of my favorite teas for a night time treat! A touch of milk really makes it so good! I also like to add this tea to the Rooibos Vanilla Chai. It makes a great nutty addition with the spice.
An earthy and warm herbal tea. The tobacco-like flavor of the rooibos pairs well with the caramel flavors. This reminds me almost of the taste of sticky toffee pudding.
I was really surprised by how much I like it. The description sounded fine, so I bought a sample but wasn't expecting much. Definitely one of my favorites now. Sweet and well-rounded.
This is my new favorite tea! Sweet, nutty, & rich.
The flavor is quite festive with a warm, cinnamon aftertaste.
A little to flowery for me. It was good, but I probably won't reorder it.
Strong graham cracker flavor. Great cold day tea with a dash of honey.
Love love this tea! Such a great flavor! Always want to have it on hand
Love the nuttiness and warm spices during this cold winter. Will order again!
A great tea, the caramel is very prominent, I’d prefer a lot less caramel and more chestnut in this rooibos.
Delicious tea, i could drink this almost everyday!
A very mellow, soothing tea, perfect for rainy winter mornings.
Surprisingly sweet! ...to me, anyway. Although it was sweet enough where I don't feel I needed to - I added a tiny bit of milk and a little bit of splenda, and this reminded me of something familiar I can't quite figure out. The things that come to mind though are either pralines and cream ice cream or butter pecan ice cream, although it was hot. I absolutely loved the sample I got, though, and would definitely get it again!
I blended this one with stronger chai's and it came out really well. Nice, mellow flavor but not the best for multiple steepings.
I purchased and shared this with friends initially the winter prior to this one. My friends then said they had been waiting for it to come back in stock this winter, so they are certainly fans. Personally I don't much care for the apple notes, though the nutty vanilla is lovely.
