It's not great compared to loose leaf teas, but if you usually drink grocery store bagged teas, this is at least on the better side. The vanilla flavoring is artificial, but not bad. It kind of dries out your mouth the way a lot of astringent black teas do, but it doesn't taste bitter. Just a simple black tea with vanilla essence.

Nice simple vanilla flavored tea. Relaxing, lovely aroma. Convenient tea bags to take along when on the go. one of my fav Bigelow teas.

This was my first time having vanilla in my tea - and it didn't disappoint. Better with milk/cream. Just fine without sweetener.

This is my go-to caffeinated bagged tea. The vanilla flavor is obviously artificial but also very tasty.

I really like this tea. I bring it to drink at work and pack it when traveling. I use Stevia which brings out the nice vanilla flavor.

This is a decent tea if you've never experienced loose teas before. I had spent a good part of my life drinking tea bags and enjoyed it fine. it has a vanilla flavor that, to me, didnt require any additional sweetening. Even now, if there are no better options, I will choose this tea over other tea bags. It brews up dark and rich with a strong vanilla flavor. If you want to make it seem a little richer, a little milk makes it nice as well. All in all, not a bad tea for tea bags.

I like my tea strong especially since I add honey and a spoonful of milk to my vanilla tea. I need two bags for one large cup of Bigelow. I use this when I'm too lazy to make a cup of Adagio leaf tea.

It's not so bad if you follow my usual rule about Bigelow's teas: use 190-200 degree water and don't steep for more than 2-3 minutes. You'll get a decent cup of vanilla tea that way.

Canned cake frosting as a tea, and I don't really like canned cake frosting. It's alright if you add milk to it, but there're better vanilla teas out there.

Adding some sugar and a splash of milk can really kick up this tea and make it decadent.

Needs milk and sugar to bring out the true value of this tea, but makes a nice cup of tea with the right additives

This is my go to tea when I run out of loose leaf tea. I dont have to use a vanilla syrup to get the vanilla favor.

This is my go-to tea, and I always have it on hand. It's a nice light flavor, and it's really relaxing. It also makes a delicious iced tea.

Really good chai tea for reasonable cost. Has soothing vanilla notes to the Chai. Really pleasant and delicious.

A subtle, mellow tea, I enjoy it with pastries. Wouldn't be a go-to choice for a strong breakfast drink, though.

O liked many kinds of Begelow’s flavored teas, but I gave them up after I found out they contain an artificial flavors

A good vanilla grocery store tea. Easily accessible and decent but not high quality.

Even after learning the difference between loose vs bagged tea. This is still a favorite of mine! Strong vanilla flavor. Goes well with sugar and milk.

Nancy Rutter
The true flavor of this tea can only be brought out with cream and sugar, otherwise it just tastes like bland spice
Plain, 2 stars
With milk, 2.5 stars
With sugar, 3.5 stars
With milk and sugar combined, 4.5 stars

Yummy tea, I used to use this tea to make my homemade bobatea. Add some creamer and tapioca pearls then you're good to go

If I could give negative stars, this would be it! Really disaster. Don't even try, not worth the disappointment.

Maria Burns
This is the worst idea ever. It tastes like fake vanilla, but disgustingly sweet. This stuff is almost viscous in its sweetness. Also, it smells like a knock-off Yankee Candle company. Wow...I didn't realize my opinions on this tea ran so deep...

You have to be careful how long you brew this tea. Its better in a larger cup and better with milk.

This is tasty for a while, but I got sick of it after finishing a box. A little to sweet for me.

I have been in love with this dessert tea for many years. The aroma really whisks you away. I enjoy this with a little honey and vanilla almond milk to really make it pop.
