I loved this tea. It had just enough sweetness that it passed for a substitute chocolate turtle.

Great tea!
Not crazy about the rooibos flavor, but the caramel and pecan flavor was nice.
I'm not really a turtle candy eater (not a huge fan of nuts) but boy do I love this tea! I have to be careful with caffeine so this delicious treat is extremely welcome in my pantry. It is blissful! Roasty, toasty, nutty goodness married to caramel and chocolate. What's not to love? It's got a depth of deliciousness that cannot be denied. Yum, yum, pecan turtle! You can visit any time! Happy Sipping!
Great yummy pecan hint of chocolate flavor. My daughter’s favorite.
I love and adore this caffeine free dessert rooibos blend. The flavors come alive with a splash of milk and honey when steep for 5 minutes. ( so the tea is strong so, it s not water down) @adagioteas
Got this fast for my dad as a Christmas present - hope he loves it! @adagioteas
One of my favorites! Great aroma and flavor! Definitely will order again!
This is a wonderful, light tea. It is a treat in a mug! Great to have at night when you want something sweet, but not anything to eat or add calories to your day.
Good. Less pecan than I was expecting but still very nice fall tea.
Yum! This tasty and comforting tea is dessert in a mug.
I am all about aromatic teas, this one has a strong caramel smell that is wonderful. You can taste the notes of caramel and chocolate. Definitely made my top 10 list of favorite teas. @adagioteas
Such a delicious, soothing tea. I really enjoyed the chocolatey, caramel notes that enveloped the rooibos. A nice tea in the evenings to substitute for a sweet dessert. Adding honey obviously made it sweeter but is not necessary. @adagioteas
Delicious. At first taste all I got was the caramel with a hint of pecan, but the pecan strengthened with each drink and the chocolate came washing in at the end to top it off. The scent alone is also top notch - smelled too good, got impatient and burned my tongue on a sip before it was cool enough to drink!
My husband adored this blend and was disappointed when we ran out. Time for a bigger bag next time. I wasn’t sure how the chocolate flavor would go over but it was just right.
Love this sweet tea! It's my go to when I'm craving something sweet
Tried this tea in the Rooibos/Honeybush portions sampler. It was so good I bought some separately. It tastes good plain and even better with a bit of honey.
This was a smooth cup, but I'm not sure if I'd order again.
Great tea, really capitalizes on the rooibos flavor @adagioteas
I am not on team rooibos. For the most part I dislike it, although I admit there are a few flavors that I think work in combination with it, namely caramel and cinnamon. This having both convinced me I should give it a shot. Out of the pouch, it smells very chocolatey, with the hint of the woody/medicinal rooibos hiding in the background. It lends to an almost chocolate liquor-like scent. When brewed, it has the typical rooibos reddish orange hue. In terms of taste, the chicory helps to balance the off putting sweetness of the rooibos, toning it down to acceptable levels. It loses the chocolate intensity once brewed, the nutty pecan taking center stage. While it doesn’t exactly taste like the candy, it’s not unpleasant and I found myself enjoying it the more I sipped on it. If you’re suspicious of red rooibos, this may be one worth trying.
I like turtles. The animal and the type of chocolately caramel pecan blend. This blend brought me much joy. @adagioteas
Pecans and chocolate, what's not to like? I like it with a little honey (not too much, it's already pretty sweet) and find it benefits from a heavy load of the measuring spoon.
My whole family likes this tea! It’s great as an after dinner drink when we kind of want something sweet but don’t really need dessert and definitely don’t need caffeine! It doesn’t even need sweetener, but I bet it would be delicious with rock sugar.
Has a caramel aftertaste I dont mind. I think ill keep playing with combinations with this one.
Can’t go wrong with the flavorful tea. Smells and tastes delicious.
I don't get super excited for rooibos, but I don't taste it much over the sweetness in this tea. Fine by me! It's very pleasant and makes for a smooth dessert tea. I didn't have it with milk or cream, but I'm sure brewed strong enough it would taste great with either. I didn't add sugar or other sweeteners to it either, but I would be hard pressed to given how sweet it is on its own.
Delicious!! I ate a handful of nuts with it. A good sweet tooth tea!
absolutely fantastic! NUTTY and not overly sweet, but not a weak chocolate either.
One of our favorites! Thai is one perfect as is! It is a go to evening tea for me! The flavors are in perfect balance.
I love this as an after dinner tea. It's got a nutty, caramel flavor with hints of chocolate. I add a touch of sweetener to really bring out the flavors. Perfect for a guilt free dessert.
Dessert in a cup! This is so freaking good! I brewed this for 5 minutes at 205* as I live at high altitude. Added creamy oat milk and honey and I am so happy right now!
tasty with nice pecan flavor to it. My neighbor likes this one a lot
I like a nice dessert tea on fall evenings, and this rooibos does not disappoint in this respect! It has a nice smooth, slightly chocolate-y taste. Great for rooibos fans and anyone looking for a scrumptious caffeine-free treat!
Very mellow. Nice sweetness from the caramel. The chocolate didn't carry over to multiple infusions, but it was still nice. A good drink for cold, raw days.
While this is a good tea, I was hoping for more caramel and pecan flavor. The apple pieces don't add to this tea, in fact they take away some of the flavor. Adding toasted pecans and caramel pieces would definitely increase the flavor profile to make it go from okay to great.
Another great tea. It reminds me of a tea I've had before in a tea room at Christmas.
This is a great tea for the evening when you are ready to wind down after a long day. I steep it strong, add milk and thick whipped milk foam, for added enjoyment I like to add a dusting of cinnamon or some seasonal themed sprinkles. My children love this as a before bedtime treat on special nights :)
Just the thing to ease you into the seasonal spirit. The holidays are coming.
Very sweet with nice chocolate traces. Good hot and cold.
This is one of my 2 favorite teas, it's like a dessert all by itself. Doesn't even need sugar
My absolute favorite of all the teas I’ve tried so far!
I got this to try rooibos, and I love it! It's a nice dark and strong herbal tea. It's very flavorful without the puker that black tea gives you. The tea is naturally sweet with a well rounded pecan taste- yum! It reminds me of pecan pie.
I bought the biggest possible bag of this (along with honeybush banana nut) for my best friend's mom, who is absolutely obsessed with it. I have a cup every time I see her - it's delicious!
This tea is really good. I would definitely recommend it
This is my favorite evening tea and I’m not even a big pecan person. It has the perfect flavors for autumn and is lovely with light sweetener.
Amazing tea. I love the chocolatey flavor, has to be my favorite herbal blend!
Turtles are so cute!
Who puts turtles in their tea?
That is disgusting!
Oh, you mean candy!
Chocolate pecan candies!!!
That makes much more sense
A SWEET dessert tea,
Perfect for anybody
Great straight or with cream!
(Haiku review)
My absolute favorite tea that I never want to be without. Can not recommend highly enough. It is good on its own, it is good with sugar & cream, it is just straight up good!
My husband absolutely loves this tea which is saying something because he’s not a tea drinker. Granted, it’s not exactly tea but he likes to have it in the evening with a little oat milk. I like this one too. Sweet but not overly so and I love rooibos because it has a depth of flavor more so than honeybush I think
Nutty flavors go best with rooibos, and this tea is no exception.
