This tea is truly delicious. It has a gravitas lacking in most tisanes, and even smells heavenly. I'm not a big fan of tisanes, preferring true tea, but this tisane is exceptional and I've already reordered it.
Our Rooibos Pecan Turtle, like its namesake, is blended with the smooth rich flavors you know and love.

One of my favorites! Pecan Turtle in a cup - it doesn't get much better than that.
Overall, a decent tea. I preferred it hot rather than as an iced tea. Subtle caramel flavoring, did not get much of a pecan vibe from it. Barely any turtle flavor.
I’m not a huge Rooibos fan but this works. More of a treat type tea but worth it.
Hmm, I'm not thrilled with this one. There's nothing OBJECTIONABLE about it, exactly, but it's definitely not what I'd hoped. The scent and taste don't match. This tea smells VERY like a turtle, chocolate and caramel and nuttiness, almost to the point of smelling like a really tasty cocoa-scented candle, nice almost (though not quite) to the point of smelling a little artificial/cloying. The taste is a sort of basic rooibos. There's a bit of sweetness, a hint of apple, and something a little nutty underneath the rooibos flavor, but nothing that matches the really pungent smell. It's sort of a disconcerting experience to drink this way, and even though the taste is perfectly fine, it ends up disappointing.
Love this tea ! This is currently my favorite. It is a perfect to have cream and honey in and pairs great with desserts.
love the nutty flavor combined with caramel; super tasty
Oh my god, YES. So warm and comforting and delicious! I used to get the Snickerdoodle hot chocolate from Starbucks and having this with a splash of oat milk and a bit of splenda really reminds me of it. Delicious.
This morning I am drinking Rooibos Pecan Turtle. One of my all time favorite Adagio teas. I was hesitant to try this blend originally when I received it as part of a rooibos sampler because it has pecan flavor. To me, pecans are dry and have a horrible taste. But I love this tea! I definitely taste more of the chocolate, caramel, and apple pieces. I always enjoy it with lots of sweetener and some cream. Dessert in a cup.
tasted very good! smelled really good when i opened the bag.
A wonderful dessert tea, don't let the smell of the actual tea fool you. It smells nearly saccharine as plain tea, but in the cup is mildly sweet with lovely caramel notes.
I really like this tea. It's on the sweeter side so perfect for when you have a late night craving. It has hints of caramel & just the right amount of pecan
Loved this so much, I sent to a friend as a gift! She is in love as well. Add sweet cream and it's just sweet enough for those sweet lovers.
A perfect evening tea. The flavorings complement the rooibos base very well.
Delicious. Warm, sweet and comforting. Tastes like dessert.
This is a wonderfully nutty & complex tea blend. Very yummy!
Great rooibos with decent flavors of caramel and pecan, and mild background flavors of chocolate. Will definitely buy it again.
I'm a big fan of rooibos tea, but have never had it with a dessert type flair to it. I really love how this tea tastes & smells like dessert. It's hearty for a decafe tea & I think it will be a perfect late afternoon / evening tea for me. I will definitely be ordering again.
Great tea for an evening warm up. Flavors come through well. Already on the sweet side, so careful when adding honey/sweetener
A lovely dessert te. Sweet and deep flavor. My wife loves it
This is such a tasty and wonderful blend. The aroma when steeping is heavenly and robust. Seriously, a delicious tea.
This is the tea that started me on this website. Given to me by a friend, I had no idea a caffeine free tea could taste so good. My work chair becomes my comfy chair and for a few minutes all the stress of the day is silenced.
This tea such a treat!
The flavors are a relaxing warm hug
I love this flavor combo normally and I thought this tea smelled amazing. The taste for me just wasn't there. I wanted it to be much stronger than it turned out. I've tried brewing for 5 minutes as well as 10 without much flavor gain.
I love this Rooibos!!! It's a wonderful tea for curbing my sweet tooth. I love the pecan and chocolate flavor.
It's a little watery, and some of the flavors don't come through without a splash of milk and sugar (though that then waters down the tea itself with milk).
BUT if you steep it in scalded milk alone it tastes AMAZING! It's so rich and flavorful and creamy.
This was my first loose leaf tea brewed at home. Maybe I'm biased for that reason, but WOW! It tastes like carmel pecan. I am able to taste all of the flavors in this! Igot this to cure my sweet tooth without consuming a ton of calories, and I am very pleased. I can't wait to try the others I purchased!
It was OK. I didn t really get a pecan turtle taste however. not my favorite.
Really great flavor to this rooibos tea. The combination of flavors is nice.
Didn't taste pecan nor turtle but it was a good tea. Not sure I'd buy again.
I love how decadent this tea is! Such a caffeine free treat!
Excellent as a dessert tea. Flavors of chocolate, caramel, and rooibos. Will definitely buy again.
This tea was good, but not great. I wanted a stronger chocolate flavor.
Rich and nutty. I usually don’t like chocolate teas because reminds me of off water, but this one has enough body to be decadent. A definite reorder.
It has a very heady butterscotch smell in the package but is mild to drink. More nutty than chocolate
I love this tea! Will be reordering it! Try it!!😃
This tea smells AMAZING. It literally smells like that super sweet coffee creamer, but it doesn't taste that sweet, don't worry. I wouldn't say that I get all the unique flavors that are in this tea, but nonetheless, it makes for a delicious brew.
Edit: I have changed my review from 5 stars to 3 stars. I just can't seem to get any good flavor from it. It most the time just winds up being a very bland cup, despite still smelling good.
This tea is mild and so delicious. Full but light flavors. Great for getting rid of that chill the winter brings to your body. I've purchased both the tea bags and loose tea. I use the tea bags when I travel, there very convenient.
Another great nutty tea! I had a little Caramel to mine to kick up the flavor, but it is also delicious without it.
The flavors play well together, but there's something cloying and artificial about the sweetness. The Rooibos Nutcracker is a similar flavor, but without the fake sugar taste.
Such a sweet tea. Perfect with milk and sugar. It’s a delight. I highly recommend it. I’ll be purchasing again.
A decadent treat! We enjoy a cuppa as a dessert! Purchased for ourselves as well as a gift.
A delicate tea with a mellow pecan taste and chocolate undertones.
Delicious after dinner tea. No need for dessert. I like a little creamer added to mine.
This is excellent but I don t get much turtle flavor. It s more of a chocolate roobios than anything else but the chocolate isn t too strong.
Rooibos is hit or miss for me, but I liked this a lot. A good dessert tea.
Beautiful dessert tea, or any time you need a sweet pick me up.
This was ok. I guess the flavor-peacn turtle put me in the mind of eating the candy, but I would consider buying it again and gifting it to someone
You had me @ Rooibos and Pecan Turtle instant aroma Heightened my senses Immediately! As for flavors, I didn’t pick up any chocolate or cinnamon flavor. However did taste hints of pecan, caramel & I think Chicory notes. They were all subtle yet a perfect blend as I sipped. My personal preference for this yummy tea, in evening would be very pleasant on its own! Yet, as a morning tea, I love rooiboos as a latte’. (8 mins @ 212°F) (sipped al neutral at first then switched to frothed unsweetened almond milk as topper)
Love this healthy dessert option! Guiltless sips on a cold winter evening.
This is a truly great tea! The flavor is a lovely balance between pecan, caramel and chocolate. Fabulous as a special treat.
