Forever Nuts

Forever Nuts. What can I say about this tea other than mmmmm. I love that apple taste…no, that nutty taste…no that apple…sigh! This little fight goes on in my mouth every single time I make a mug of this deliciousness!! What can I say? It’s another winner!

I feel like Im being a huge wuss tonight and I want to be self indulgent without ingesting any caffeine, so Forever Nuts is my choice. I know its been said before, but the sweet cinnemony cookie taste is really pleasing for my inner child. I hit it with some milk, so it didnt get overly appley (an oversteeping error I have made in the past) and this is definitely how I prefer it.

The first thing that always hits me about this tea is the cinnemon. I shouldnt say it hits me because its not abrasive at all, its a solid presence but very gentle and it stays with me after I’ve swallowed the tea, not in a hot cinnemon way but in a smoothe, baking with allspice and cinnemon way. I deserve this tea tonight.

My besties and I went out for David’s after our last exam and we all decided to try this tea. Oh my goodness! The smell! So beautiful, and the taste even better! We all agreed that it tasted sort of Christmas-y. I dont exactly remember the taste because it was a while ago, but please, try this tea!

yay! new tea! LOVE the color of this one, especially in my clear glass thermos. nutty-licious!

I can see why this is a Forever Favorite. I will have to pay closer attention to my next steep to provide specifics about the flavor, but i remember drinking the whole thing and happily deciding that I had found a keeper.

I had a cuppa brewed up at the shop, it was wonderful! I just wish I’d tried it before I was halfway home, I would have purchased 100 g!

I am a novice to loose leafed teas and this was the first tea I tried from DT.

While it’s a tisane, I find it to be quite yummy. It’s a good tea either hot or cold. I personally like to drink it to unwind before going to bed since it’s caffeine free. The apple and cinnamon are the primary flavours, which does remind me of a mellow apple cider. Overall, I find this tea to be a good starter tea. And an awesome tea to mix with others.

No matter how I steep this tea it always comes off too light tasting for my liking.
It’s nice and warming with pleasant notes of apple and cinnamon, but it’s far too subtle and has no drama which is promised with the color and smell.
I would rather drink Goji Pop or Green and Fruity .
I’m still giving this tea as many tries as possible hoping that maybe one day we can go from sly glances across the room to full-on dating.

Do not:
-be stingy. If you want this tea to taste good, put the 1.5 spoonfuls (or maybe even 2). I wondered to myself whether a few less almonds or apple pieces would really make a difference and learned that it does.
-add tea leaves. I added a few green tea leaves thinking it wouldn’t affect the taste, but it did (and not for the better).

I absolutely adore the smell of this in the bag and also steeped, but a part of me doesn’t want to repurchase this often or buy it in large quantities because it simply has no actual tea leaves in it.
I love that it turns pink and has a nice sweet taste to it, but it doesn’t ever really satisfy my “tea craving” (do you know what I mean?) and is more of a novelty “tea” for me.

This tisane has a fairly simple but delicious combination of flavours. I love how it smells both in the package and during/after the infusion. The almond flavour comes through and gives the tea a full, buttery-type flavour. The cinnamon is a very nice addition and compliments the apple quite nicely.

The only unfortunate thing is that I seem to have to put a lot more of the mix than is recommended to achieve an adequate brew. Otherwise it has a bit of an undesirable weak taste.

This tea pairs very nicely with cheesecake.

SIMPLY AMAZING. LOVE THIS TEA. CAN’T GET ENOUGH OF IT.

When i went to buy it they said they were out, but right when I was leaving they had just received a shipment and i walked out with 100g. So happy.

this smells EXACTLY like apple cinnamon cheerios.
therefore… it is awesome.
apple-cinnamon-nut flavour as well!
delicious herbal

Love this tea, it is my #1. So comforting hot and even better with some steamed milk! The pink colour just adds to the wonder of this great tea! And caffeine free, so I can have it morning or night!

I am a green tea / white tea / oolong tea fan as I drink a lot of these tea. Almost daily.

It is really surprise to see nuts in the tea when I went into the shop and ask for the best sellers. Well, so I buy 25g and have a try in the sunday morning. It taste wired in the first sip. But once you put it down for a while you will fell the nutty flavor leaving in your mouth.

I guess it is might be a good try for people who are a nut fan and an interesting alternative for regular asian tea drinker.

This was the first tea I ever purchased at DavidsTea. It was very strange to me because I had never had nuts in my tea before…..but it works c: And the smell is divine!! So yummy, it makes me hungry for baked goods. The taste – I feel is more apple like than the nuttyness that it claims to be, but that’s okay. It’s like apple crumble! Sweetener is definitely not needed here. I don’t taste the beetroot like the other reviewers do….I like it being in there for the vibrant colour. And it goes any even cuter shade when you add milk! Anyways, I really love this tarty, fruity, nutty tea :D
Fantastic hot or iced!!

LOVE this herbal tea…smells & tastes so yummy. One of my favorites so far :)

Well, I tried this tea a couple of months ago and I didn’t really like it – it kind of gave off a weird smell and taste – but I think I may have used too much water to dry-tea-mix. I decided to revisit it tonight, looking for something with no caffeine to satisfy my tea craving of the hour. Trying it again, it’s still nowhere near my favourite, but I like it better than last time. It’s true, it definitely does smell like an oatmeal cookie/muffin and also tastes like one with a bit more of a fruity taste. I don’t know how much I like the idea of drinking a cookie…it’s a little bit confusing. However, I am a fan of the pink colour.

I guess nutty teas just don’t do it for me, but this one is hitting the spot for now. I will be on the lookout for a caffeine-free tea that I like better (maybe something more chocolatey).

The advertised ‘for almond lovers’ isn’t true to this tea’s taste. I hate to break it to you, but this tea tastes nothing like almonds. I:
Instead what it tastes like is a merriment of apple and flowers and nuts. It’s a flowery (as the pinkish colour would suggest), nutty flavour that isn’t quite sophisticated but instead… peppy. I would start my day with this. And have some with dinner. And then have some while watching television, showering, making intense life decisions, etc. Really, it’s perfect for anything but pre-sleeping endeavors.

It’s kind of weak, so it’s a good idea to either let it steep for a longer time than suggested or just steep a tad more than the recommended amount. =P

EDIT: I’ve found the second steep of this is far superior to the first. The first steep wrings out an apple flavour, which makes this taste very ‘apple pie’. The second is more mellow, allowing the nuts to peek through and show themselves. Much improved, and truer to the name.

Apparently this tea is edible after you steep it, although I don’t know if I’d want to… wouldn’t the nuts be mushy? I do enjoy this tea every now and again, but I find it’s very sweet, with a slight apple pie-like taste. Not something I’d drink every day.

When it’s in the bag/tin, the smell of Forever Nuts is divine- it’s like those delicious mini donuts sold at fairs! Once steeped however, the smell dissipates and you can tell just from the scent that the tea is fairly weak. The flavor is still there a bit though, so it’s accented nicely with sweetener and a bit of hot milk.

Plus the fact that it brews to a hot pink color is fantastic as well!
