Amazinggg iced tea. I’m a sucker for anything grapefruit and lemongrass.
Pretty good hot too, even though I don’t usually like warm fruit in anything.
One time, I walked into T2 and they had a big iced jug of half Southern Sunrise and half Turkish Apple (the sugary one).
Went home and made some with Turkish Apple too (from Adore Tea) and the only thing I could do all day long was sit in the kitchen with a smile and repeatedly pour myself another glass.

Ahhhh this was so warm and uplifting!!
Love lemon myrtle. Very Australian.
I went to Chatswood today, all ready to buy a large pack of this after trying a 95c sample. Was super excited about it, and for all the other flavours I was going to take home with me. Then BAM, the Adore Tea store had closed down! What the fxck!
In terms of range and quality, all that Sydney has left is The Tea Centre and T2 :(
Oh well, there’s always online ordering. But it makes me sad to see great Aussie businesses closing down.
Anyway, this was delicious with a teapot steeping of five minutes. Next time, I’m steeping on the stove for 7-10 minutes like you’re supposed to with rooibos.
A new bag of this will arrive in my mailbox soon, and it brightens me to know that.

Tried this twice but it doesn’t taste like much! Ordered from iHerb and maybe this particular box was damaged by heat or something because it didn’t smell like anything when I opened the tin.
Can taste a tiny bit of vanilla, like in vanilla cake, but cannot taste the tea.
May order this again to see if I just got a faulty item or if this tea was just overhyped.

It’s somewhat hard to taste the dessert in this tea. You kinda have to look for it. When you do, there is the aftertaste of caramel sweetness, but much too subtle for me to warrant buying this.
This was a sample and I still have some left so I’ll brew it longer next time and hope it doesn’t turn bitter.
T2’s Terrific Toffee is much tastier.

Edit: Brewed for four minutes the second time and the creme brulee flavour upped its presence. No bitterness. It’s quite smooth in mouthfeel with the aftertaste of caramelized sugar. T2 had a promotion where you get a free box of this with any chai purchase so I have 100grams of this to play around with. Increasing my rating

I’m sure those who love Turkish Delight will love this tea, as it tastes just like the candy. But for me, I’m not a fan of the confectionery or roses, which this tea tastes very strongly of. Actually, just realizing I quite dislike rose in anything, which probably makes me weird given its popularity.
It’s not a bad tea by any means though. It’s just not for me.

I can taste the cherry. I can taste the chocolate. I can taste the coconut. Three big ticks :D
The smell is exactly like the candy bar, but like most flavoured teas, it seems rare that the taste is as strong.
But that’s absolutely fine for this tea. It’s still delicious and so smooth that I didn’t feel the need to add milk. The flavours also seem to develop further even after you take the leaves out and leave it to stay warm in the pot.
This was a 95c sampler sachet but I may have to buy a full packet of this.

This is my favourite green tea of all time. OF. ALL. TIME. conviction on par with Kanye West trashing T.Swift circa 2009.
It’s never astringent but has a tangy bitterness that is SO GOOD and SO REFRESHING I can feel it detoxing me from the inside.
For me, perfect results are at 75 degrees Celsius for four minutes. Have yet to try it iced coz it is just so damn good hot.
I hardly ever rebuy a tea coz I love the novelty of trying new ones but I’ve spent money on this one maybe three or four times now.
Adore.

A subtle yet noticeable cookie flavour complements the tea base without overwhelming. I enjoyed this straight before adding milk, which seemed to water it down a little. I had brewed it according to the packet instructions i.e 2 and a half minutes so perhaps if I use milk next time, I’ll add an extra minute to steeping time. Becomes slightly more flavourful when cooled down but can dry out my mouth a little for some reason. Nonetheless I’d still reach for this tea to quell any cookie cravings

Hey everyone!
I’m relatively new to tea and have yet to taste very many decafs but I still liked this one reasonably well.
When you first open the packet, what hits you immediately is the heavy scent of bergamot and you just know the flavour is really going to stand out. You can’t really smell tea too much though, but since it’s a decaf, that might be somewhat standard?
When brewed, the bergamot is most definetely rich and high-quality like the description says. But the tea taste isn’t very present at all. It does feel a little thin in the mouth, like bergamot-flavoured water.
So I add milk and for once, some sugar as well and it basically becomes a sweet bergamot milk, which for me isn’t so bad as it still becomes a comforting drink I can enjoy at night.
If anyone has suggestions for great decafs available in Australia, or which ship to Aus at a non-exorbitant price, I would be ever so happy to hear your suggestions.
Thanks for reading!

This does taste as good as it smells. And how it smells is really quite lovely.
As been mentioned by other reviewers, it lacks body but I find adding milk does help in bringing out the tea base. Nothing that stands out too much about this one, but it is definetely a worthwhile blend to try if you ever walk past a Tea Centre
