I buy this all the time. LOve it!
This one is quite tasty, and offers a less astringent flavor than the bagged version.
I've always liked the tea bag version of this tea, and I figured the full leaf would have a fuller flavor. The vanilla is fuller, but the almond gets all but lost. Definitely prefer the tea bags.
My downright favorite every day tea
Adore this tea! Perfect steeped long and then done up with honey and cream.
I have been ordering this tea for years. This my favorite flavor
This is among my favorite black teas that is great for breakfast or really any time of day. It has flavor without being too strong and is wonderful with a bit of 1/2 and 1/2.
I bought this to try a month ago, just ordered two more tins. It’s wonderful.
I love vanilla and almonds, so I was very excited to try this tea. Major disappointment. Not much flavor, just bland and boring
The Vanilla Almond is my favorite tea. I always restock when out. Very good tea!
The tea upon first smell is great, and it reminds me a lot of an Amaretto, which makes since because of the Almonds. It is defiantly vanilla and has hints of cherry. There is even bits of almonds in the can! Upon brewing the aroma is still great, and obviously not as strong but still pleasant. The vanilla taste is not as strong as the almond taste, but it is very natural. There is a very strong woody taste though. Adding sugar to it elevates it to a whole new level and makes it really taste like an amaretto. The problem is I am not big on sweet tea, but I can see this as a great mixing tea. Add some sugar, add milk, maybe even some real amaretto if your into that. But as a straight drinking tea, after the first few days of excitement it becomes boring and that woody taste starts to overpower everything. Great if you like sweet tea or fancy tea drinks, but not my....cup of tea
The Vanilla Almond is my absolute favorite! Love Republic Of Tea for all my tea flavors.
I love both the aroma and flavor of this tea. Almond comes through very clearly but gently and it has a creamy taste and texture. Never bitter. This is the perfect sipping tea for early afternoon. Even lovely with a little milk and honey.
One of my favorite teas. As soon as I run out, I have to order more. The smell is divine, and just a small bit of sugar REALLY helps the flavor pop! (I've had two family members try it, and they weren't impressed, until I told them they really need just that little bit of sugar...and then they understood my love for this tea!)
The vanilla tea with a hint of almonds is my favorite combination. You don’t need to add a thing besides hot water. So smooth even my grandchildren love it.
The vanilla almond is my families favorite tea. We have it iced and hot.
I love mixing this tea with another black tea. On it's own it's a little strong in taste for me. I add it to earl grey at a 1-4 ratio and it's perfect.
this vanilla almond tea is my early afternoon tea.....so soothing and relaxing!
I am a big fan of black tea and especially Vanilla! This is a winning combination for me.
This is one of my year-round go-to teas. I have reordered many times. This tea is sweet without the need for added sweetenrs.
So far vanilla almond cold is what I drink the most, all day I brew a pitcher I put vanilla almond tea bags at the bottom and put this vanilla almond loose leaf 🃠on top of the tea bags and brew it its so good. I like my tea strong and the loose leaf 🃠just boosts the flavor even more 😋.
I start out my work week with this soothing tea that I mix with the Cupcake Vanilla tea. Very soothing and with the great array of teas rarely drink coffee.
I got this tea originally as a gift and was surprised by how much I liked it. I have purchased it several times since. It has a distinct almond flavor, but it is not overwhelming.
This tea has great taste. Recommend.
My wife and love this tea. The flavor is a very nice combination of almond and vanilla. We have been drinking this tea for about ten years.
I have been purchasing this loose leaf tea for a few years, and I love the sweet and nutty aromas and flavor. It has become part of my morning routine!
I really like the Vanilla Almond in tea bags adn have been using it for years. The loos leaf version is even better stronger taste. Wonderful!
I've been using the tea bag version of this, for several years, and love it. the full leaf version has even more flavor and punch! WOW!
I love the loose version of this tea because I can easily strengthen it as desired for hot or iced tea, to add flavored water to soups, gravies desserts, dressings, etc. This tea is also a great go-to tea when I am not sure whether I am serving tea newbies or teà lovers. People tend to like this
I start every day with a fresh pot of this delicious tea. The Vanilla Almond flavors soften the black tea a bit making a delectable, flavorful tea!
I use auto ship, every month to get my order refills !! They are always on time. Love the free samples that come each month!!
To me, this tea has a bold and satisfying flavor being excellent for getting the day started or later with cream for an afternoon pick up. This blend is capable of a second brew by adding a bit more loose tea.
I've been drinking this blend in tea bags for years, and it's wonderful. I recently heard full leaf tea is more flavorful, so I decided to give this a try. It's true! It's even better!
This tea makes A fantastic iced tea. This is one of the few black teas I drink because the flavor is so good. The vanilla comes thru nice and mellow for an iced tea. Very refreshing.
I thought I would try this considering overall this tea seems well liked. It did not disappoint. While it is not my favorite black tea mixture, I did rather enjoy the subtle nutty flavor with a dash of milk. Would recommend.
I wasn't sure how I'd feel about this tea when I got it, but it quickly became one of my favorites in my collection. It has just enough to be flavorful but not overpowering .
As a lover of black tea and vanilla, this tea is perfect for me. The addition of almond makes it really special. I definitely keep this as a staple in my tea collection.
Vanilla almond black tea is absolutely delicious. I buy 1lb bags because I love it so much
I have been a loyal customer of RoT forever and this doesn't disappoint in quality and deliciousness!
I drink tea all day long hot, cold. Never sweetened so finding tea that is yummy in all these circumstances is a joy!
Not only is this one of my favorite teas, I am happy that there are refills for the loose leaf enthusiasts like me. This tea is so wonderful that it would make a tea lover out of any diehard coffee drinker!! Great at all times of day.
It's nice to have a flavorful loose tea. The combination of vanilla and almond is too good to pass up! Treat yourself.
I can taste the almond without it being overpowering - unlike the decaf version, which tastes like a bunch of almond extract was dumped into it.
I've been buying Vanillin Almond Tea for years and now buy it in bulk!!! Can't live without it.
I really like the Vanilla Almond Black Tea I purchased from The Republic of Tea. They also sent me some free samples with my purchase and I'm thinking of trying these as well. My only disappointment was that I thought I was going to receive the tea I ordered in a tin which the pictures showed but it came in a resealable plastic bag.
I like this tea. It is treat for me with the taste of almond and vanilla without forgetting a bit of honey!
This tea is soooo good! The aroma is amazing, the taste is bold and fruity, it is fresh and makes a gorgeous and enjoyable cup of tea. Service was very fast and the packaging was excellent. All items arrived nicely packed and in perfect condition. I could bot be happier
This tea is heavenly! Delicious aroma, wonderfully satisfying taste, what an amazing cup if tea it makes. The tea arrived packed safely and in perfect condition and the tea itself is very fresh. Service was fast too. Couldnt be happier with my experience
I LOVE the Vanilla Almond tea bags- it is my favorite flavor- so when I saw the flair in the loose tea, I was very excited to give it a try. Unfortunately, I felt the flavor was lacking as compared to the same flavor in the tea bags. I even tried using more leaves than recommended in hopes of bringing out the flavor I am used to. It just wasn't quite the same. So, I am going back to the tea bags.
Not as flavorful as the Ginger Peach, but nice for evening sipping.
This tea was different from what I expected the vanilla almond blend to taste like. The vanilla is quite sweet and then is neutralized by the almond flavor. It's better than I thought it would, and is perfect for the caffeine kick I need in the middle of the afternoon!
THE VANILLA ALMOND IS THE 2ND TEA THAT I ORDER OVER AND OVER AGAIN. I JUST LOVE THE TASTE. THANK YOU FOR MAKING SUCH GREAT TEAS.
Tried this today and it was great! Good with or without milk. Nice tea for Autumn, but I couldn't wait that long to try it!
Republic of Tea's Vanilla Almond tea is my absolute favorite. In the winter I love a hot cup made as a latte, and year round I love brewing a HUGE batch to keep to keep in the fridge to drink iced (also latte). I wish they made extra large bags to make large supplies. I will buy this tea forever !!
I LOVE this tea. I drink at least two cups of it every day at work. It is delicious, caffeinated for an alertness boost, and also somehow soothing. At home I like to drink it with a piece of good dark Belgian chocolate with almonds. It is without contest my all time favorite tea!
This is the first time I have tried the Vanilla Almond Tea and I love it.It has great flavor.
The taste of amaretto is my all time favorite. This tea has it all. When brewed properly, one bag per 6-8 oz. it is amazing. If you like amaretto don't hesitate, you won't be disappointed.
I like to try many different teas, and as a student, I drink a LOT of tea. This is absolutely my favorite. I've typically got about 6-10 different ROT teas in my cupboard at any given time, and this immediately made it to the front of the pack.
I am a vanilla tea freak! Whenever I can find this flavor of tea, I always buy some. I'm lucky enough to go to. London every year so and always bring back a load of Vanilla tea from different tea places there, Harrods, Fortnum & Mason,etc. However, I just took a sip out of my first cup of Republic of Tea's Vanilla Almond tea and was absolutely blown away by how DELICIOUS it is! By far the best I've ever had! If you like a sweet dessert - type tea, get this- you will love it!
I love vanilla teas, and this one is wonderfully soothing with the perfect hint of almond. It isn't overly rich, and the loose leaf blend really brings out the flavors. Great for any time of the day.
This is a sweet and warming winter tea. It's not something I drink every day, and it's too heavy for summer, but it's one I keep on hand and use frequently when the weather is cold.
I really enjoy this tea, almost as a special treat. I found it while searching for an almond herbal tea, which evidently does not exist any longer. I would still like to find an almond herbal tea, but this was a nice surprise.
This tea has a rich, rather sweet flavor that offers a nice variation from my daily cup.
Nice but without pizzazz, so I use it to flavor a fruity black tea to give it more body. It is a fantastic addition when I blend teas. Just a pinch here and there makes a difference in flavor.
I love the Vanilla Almond Black tea, both the full leaf and the bags. I shared it with a friend and now she is ordering it. Can't wait to try some other flavors. Nancy A.
I'm in the minority here, but this tea smells better when dry. Even then, its aroma is strongly of artificial almond, overwhelming the vanilla. I expected to be hit over the head with almond after brewing but found a surprisingly bland tea instead. In my experience, oolong tea handles the almond flavor better than black and I wish Republic of Tea offers a Vanilla Almond Oolong. Oh well.
I simply adore this tea. It's a rich black tea flavor, strong enough to notice without being overpowering. The vanilla and almond combine to give it a balanced sweetness. The smell when you open the tin is simply heavenly, and is almost as much fun as your first sip! I generally get at least 2 brewings per infuser.
After buying a tin of this tea at a local store I instantly fell in love with it. My wife and I went through it in no time. This tea is so good I HAD to buy a pound of it. If this was the only tea available in the world I'd be ok with that. This is a must buy. Guaranteed you will love it. If you buy it and hate it ….send it my way :)
I have tried several vanilla almond teas and no one does it better than Republic of Tea! Other tea makers often offer a version of this tea with a flavor of vanilla that is far too overpowering, nearly muting the almond flavor. This tea is perfecetly balanced. I serve it with a bit of honey, delicious!
I love this tea. Its smooth, warm and inviting. The smooth taste of vanilla perfectly compliments the sweet taste of almond.
I just love this tea! It's my current favorite...I could drink it every day! A perfectly wonderful blend.
This blend (along with Yerba Mate) was responsible for my daughter switching from coffee to tea. Excellent!
This tea is a wonderful black tea with just a hint of vanilla and almond. The flavor is perfectly balanced and taste natural.
I wanted to review Republic of Tea green teas. In the last month, I have eaten at several restaurants. As a tea citizen, not a coffee drinker, it is fun to try different teas. Well, the green teas of several companies, are bitter to me. I have to put lots of honey in them. Not so with my Republic of Tea green teas. They are milder and not bitter at all. This is probably because the leaves are picked at their prime. I drink it straight and enjoy a sugar-less event. The only restaurant that sells a green tea I liked, Panera Bread, told me the reason I love their green ice tea is because it is Republic of Tea. They have an exclusive recipe with our own Republic! Everyone should only buy their green teas from R.of Tea. Thank you for the hot and iced teas. Lise
I love trying new tea flavors and types but I always come back to my Vanilla Almond. It's so smooth and flavorful.
This is my favorite tea! I drink it every morning with breakfast. The vanilla almond flavor is subtle -- just enough to provide a little flavor to the black tea.
We used this tea for a jewelry sale/tea party fundraiser last year and it was a huge hit. I ordered it again this year by special request.
This has to be my favorite tea. Love the aroma of almond with the taste of vanilla. Neither overpowers the other.
This Vanilla Almond tea is my very favorite. Great on its own or with a splash of cream. Aroma is terrific as well.
If you love the taste of almond cookies at the Holidays, this is the tea for you. Add some cream and use your immersion blender to make a great latte.
This is my personal favorite tea that Republic of Tea offers. The vanilla and almond is nicely apparent, but not too strong either. You can see little chunks of vanilla bean mixed in the tea. I like it best with milk.
This is one of those great teas that is sweet without adding sweetener - although I have it that way too! The vanilla is definitely Madagascar, I have been using it for years and I refuse to bake with anything other kind. It is a distinctive vanilla, and you can really smell and taste it in this tea.
