Our Honeybush Hazelnut combines the mellow smoothness of honeybush tea with the cozy creaminess of hazelnuts. Very nutty and aromatic, slightly roasty with a rounded, sweet flavor. Lingering honey-roasted nut finish. A mellow, very well-blended cup of tea. Great with just a touch of brown sugar. Completely caffeine free. Steep at 212°F for 5 minutes

Nice basic tea, not too strong on the hazelnut flavor. Seems like a good choice for blending with other teas.

This tea has a good hazelnut flavor. It's great plain or in a blend. And I enjoy sipping this anytime since it's decaf.

Love this tea. Honeybush can be very boring if not done correctly and this one is.

Very pleasant herbal tea. I really enjoy this in the evenings. Nice sweetness and nuttiness.

This is pretty good, but be careful to brew it correctly or it can get a tad bitter. I think there was a perfect balance of hazelnut with the woody flavor of honeybush and with some chocolate notes. A great dessert tea I'd imagine people would like with cream. The pieces are very small, too, so be sure to use an actual tea filter for this or all the small pieces will make it through the strainer.

The hazelnut is strong with this one. 5 min @ 212. The hazelnut aroma has spread through the kitchen. The flavor is very nutty, not so sweet. Since I don't sweeten my teas, I give this an okay, but not one I'd drink by itself.

I love this tea and I can enjoy it any time of the day. Honeybush is light, smooth and slightly sweet. If you're looking for a tea with no caffeine, this may be your new favorite

hazelnut is not as strong as I would like. I will try this one again with milk to see if hazelnut comes out more.

I am typically not a huge honeybush fan, but this one is great. The hazelnut is not overshadowed by the honeybush. Great blended with the chocolate black tea from Adagio!

There is not as much of a nutty quality as the name would imply. However, this tea is still quite lovely. I only had it as a single portion sampler, but I wouldn't mind purchasing it and trying it with milk.

I enjoy this tea by itself, but also blended with other teas as it adds a nice woodsy/sweet/nutty flavoring. Glorious in lattes! I usually sip this tea hot, but I think it would also be a nice addition to a cold brew blend.

One of my favorite Adagio teas. great on it's own or in blends. Better hot than iced.

This is a wonderful caffeine free tisane that can easily be a dessert any time of the day.

This is a delicious cup of tea, and this is from someone who normally doesn’t like hazelnut in beverages. I steeped at 212 degrees for 5 minutes and added sweetener.

I'm not a big herbal fan, and I don't like rooibos but I've found that I'm okay with honeybush. This makes a nice blender tea when you don't want to use the hazelnut black.

This tea is lovely! When you drink it, it's so warming. I had to get over the slightly weird smell at first, but after a couple more cups of tea, I was used to it!

A very tasty tea that even appeals to me when hazelnut is not a favorite flavor. The sweetness of the honeybush compliments the nuttiness beautifully. Steeped 4 minutes at 185 degrees.

The best simple caffeine free tea adagio has to offer! It's one of my favorites. I mix this with the vanilla and chocolate honeybush teas to make a nutella tea, and it's perfect! Great on its own, and great for blending with other teas.

great success in our house - adagio's honeybush hazelnut has a mellow sweetness with the nutty taste we were looking for !

I love the aroma and taste of the Honeybush Hazelnut tea! I steeped at 212°F x 5 minutes, and added a little brown sugar to bring the sweet nuttiness forward. Another nice add-in is cocoa nibs, for a hint of Nutella flavor. I also love how forgiving Honeybush is with steep temperature and time. Great tea for baking, too. A staple in my pantry.

If you like hazelnut and honeybush tea, you'll obviously like this. I am not a fan of hazelnut. I do like honeybush tea but I don't like the nutty/woody flavor added by the hazelnut. I brewed it for recommend 212F for 5 minutes.

Rebecca Jacobs
Good but not a favorite. Hazelnut is nicely nutty but the honeybush is too mild for me.
-
Marion Black
Got this as a sample and it was delicious. I enjoy hazelnut. The aroma was pleasant and the taste wasn’t to overwhelming. Nice and light
-
Christine Battiste
One of my favorite adagio teas- honey bush. Coupled with hazelnut it is so good
-
Rachel Emmel
A heavy hazelnut scent wafts from the dry tea. It makes a great hazelnut tea on its own, but it's even better with sweetener, and the best made into a late (being sure to steep it in 1/2 the water as usual since the steamed milk is added afterward to make up the difference)
Steeped 212F 8min

Excellent hazelnut flavor, bold like nutella, but less sweet. It's perfect for a punch of flavor late in the afternoon, or before bed.

This is a pretty solid tea! The hazelnut isn't too artificial tasting to me. Honeybush is a mild tea that thankfully doesn't taste too much like rooibos even though they are related. I do get a hint of "cardboard" which I am just thinking might be the hazelnut flavoring Adagio uses since I've tasted it in a few hazelnut teas lately. It's not bad. I probably wouldn't order this again, but I wouldn't turn a cup down!

This was just ok. The hazelnut was prevalent on first steep but nearly absent on the second steep. It might be nice with cream, but I tend to drink my tea straight.
Steeped at 212F for 5min

Okay, but not a favorite. I generally like most things hazelnut, so I was looking forward to this. I want to try a plain honeybush to see if it was that that I didn't like, or if it was this particular combination.

What a wonderful smooth, full-bodied cup. Sweet with honeybush and toasty and nutty with hazelnut. It's very aromatic and rich in taste.

This tea is quite nice and takes added flavors very well. Definitely a good cup for sipping on in bed with a good book, which was just what I did.

Hazelnut is one of my favorite flavors and it pairs very well with the sweetness of honeybush.

I like the hazelnut flavor of this, but hazelnut frequently makes me think of coffee, and therefore disappoints me that this isn't like coffee.

I'm not really a fan of hazelnut flavor, but I do love honeybush. It wasn't my favorite, but may'be I need to give it another go.

I was given this tea as a gift from my in law and it totally changed my life. I know I’m in love with 1/chocolate tea and 2/ rooibos

This was one of my favorite out of the flavored honeybush teas. It's lightly sweet and toasty with the warm nutty hazelnut flavor. It's also pretty good blended with the chocolate honeybush, and nice with a splash of milk for a bedtime treat.

I have always found honeybush teas to be an enjoyable experience. This tea does not disappoint
-
Irina Lyubashevsky
Very strong flavor, not for me. Maybe with milk? - but I don’t like milk. No one in my household liked it
-

I recently bought this as part of a honeybush collection, and I made this as a hot tea with no modifiers. I liked it! It’s excellent as a dessert tea, since it’s subtly sweet and chocolate-y. Recommended!
-
Chase Munson
Quite good! Not overpowering like I was expecting. I've come to like simple teas such as this.
-
Casey Covel
It's like a Ferrero Rocher Hazelnut Chocolate in a cup. Very woodsy and nutty with just a hint of sweetness without coming across too strong. The smell is delightful both before and after the steep. A great beverage to enjoy with your favorite cookies or to wind down with in the evening.

A friend made this for me tonight and I was hooked, smooth and sweet, the aroma itself is delightful. Harmonious blend and already craving more.
