hum! this is just like my Bengal Spice! interesting. Only a bit more creamy, from the vanilla I suppose. Thanks so much for the sample Will Work For Tea!
However… I agree with the other reviews. Where the heck is the hazelnut?! shrugs
On it’s own, this was a little too spicy for me. Too much cardamom I think. With some milk and agave, it was better. Still spicy but better.
Anyhow, I’m off to bed early. Night y’all!

Well here I am at the store getting bumped and pushed by random people(since when did everyone get so rude :[) and I saw this wonderful box of deliciousness. The aroma is very spicy and creamy. The flavor is spicy, nutty, and creamy. VERY spicy. Woo! I still like it though :] A nice change after a few days.

Maybe it’s because I’m a trail mix fan, or of ANY kind of nut, rather, but I was hoping for a more hazelnutty flavor. (Scratch that, I’m obsessed with nuts—so yogi, why is your hazelnut tea not very nutty?)
I added a dollop of almond milk and a touch of stevia—which did only a little for the hazelnut flavor. While it’s not a bad tea, it’s just lacking in the ‘nut flavor’ department.

Mmmm good morning!
Good news: I just purchased the Adagio Tea chai tea sampler! Horray!
(Though sadly, they removed two chais off of the list. But, I still get four chais).

I’ve been having this tea in the morning with my breakfast for a while now.
There’s very little hazelnut flavor, so I usually cover it up with a touch of almond milk and a minute amount of stevia. Not so bad, then!

There really is no hazelnut to be tasted here, which, for me, was a good thing. I can’t stand hazelnut flavored anything, which was why I was so reluctant to try this tea my mom gave me. An effort to use up the bagged tea I have, I ended up trying it anyway. After fixing it up with some vanilla almond milk and raw agave, this was quite tasty. I wound up asking my mom for some more.

I don’t taste the vanilla or hazelnut at all. It’s heavy on the cinnamon/cardamon/clove. It’s not what I expected.

Not a fan. When I think hazelnut, I think of the rich taste of Nutella or the buttery smell of the hazelnut coffee my dad can’t start his morning without. There’s not even the tiniest note of that here. Not really sensing vanilla either. This tea tastes and smells overwhelmingly of cinnamon and cloves. I tried maybe 2-3 cups. Now the box just sits in my cupboard.

it’s not undrinkable but from the teas i’ve tried, the yogi brand seems overrated. if there’s a type with stevia in it, that’s ALL you taste.

with tahitian vanilla hazelnut, it is like sucking on a clove. im hesitating to buy any more yogi tea because despite cute packaging, i don’t think they know how to balance out their flavors.

If Constant Comment had a baby with a chocolate tea, it would be Tahitian Vanilla Hazelnut. I didn’t taste vanilla or hazelnut at all, but cocoa and clove were very prominent. I usually prefer to drink spiced teas in the winter; maybe I’ll like it better then.

Tastes cardamom-y to me. If I didn’t know that’s what I was tasting, maybe I’d think it was vanilla or hazelnut… but probably not. On the upside, I don’t mind cardamom. Gets sweeter the longer the bag sits.

Had high hopes for this one but alas it tastes nothing like hazelnut or vanilla. It does taste like a spice/root tisane with flavors noted in the ingredients.
