Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

I'm not usually a green tea drinker, but this one is the exception. It's strong, but has a nice cherry flavor and is a bit sweet. I like my tea pretty sweet and with this one I don't have to add much to sweeten. Pay attention to steeping directions, as this one only is to steep for a minute or gets bitter. Good tea for the price.

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

Very light and blends well with the green tea, making sure not to cover it. Thoae who taste it as too bitter or like cherry cough syrup have steeped it for too long, many a time I have forgotton how short the steeping time is for this tea and it has become bitter. When prepared correctly, it is light and refreshing.

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

I love this product.

I prefer traditional strong green teas with no sugar added. However, I do have a sweet tooth, and this tea manages to satisfy everything I need when I'm in the right mood; that is, when I want to move away from a dragonwell tea or oolong or any number of traditional Chinese tea.

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

If you have an aversion to cherry cough syrup don't purchase this. It doesn't taste like it but can remind you of it. I don't have those bad memories of taking cherry cough syrup, so I really enjoy this tea. Careful don't steep too long, as it will be bitter. The aroma makes me happy to drink it. I love the light taste, and drink it everyday.

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

This is one of the first teas I bought from Teavana. I don't like anything messing up the delicate flavor of a good green tea, however the store had this brewing and it was incredible - light and floral. When steeped properly, this tea is filled with the subtle aromas of spring. Good chilled, excellent hot. Those who have had the experience of 'cough syrup' have steeped too long, added too much sweetener (I swear it needs none), or added too much tea. I highly recommed this and have gifted it several times. I am severely disappointed that my store no longer carries it......

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

When I opened the can I admit I thought of cough syrup, but I decided to give it a chance. It is a delightful tea hot or iced. I don't know about putting stevia in it, when I did that it seemed to make it a little bitter. I usually like it sweetened with a bit of honey.

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

This is my all time favorite green tea...the light cherry flavor gives just enough of a sweetness to make this as enjoyable as candy with no guilt! Brew it for less than 2 minutes with a generous scoop and you won't be disappointed. Try a little stevia herb in it to perk up the sweet flavor. PLEASE don't discontinue!

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

Most people like this drink, but I definitely agree with the people who said it tastes like cough syrup. I love Teavana, but if I did a blind taste test between warmed real cherry cough syrup and this tea... I would think they were the same.

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

I didn't like this tea at first, but put less sugar in (and brewed only 1 min, as told); and the mild sweet cherry flavor is perfect instead of a dessert, or excellent iced with with a light meal.

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

My favorite teavana tea, this one is a good everyday tea that I keep on coming back to every time I go. Very fruity but no overpowering, leaving the taste of the tea to be primary. If you like fruity, floral flavors, this tea is perfect.

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

Had very strong, cherry cough syrup smell and taste. Had ordered it online and was very disappointed. The idea sounds nice but unfortunately the artificial cherry taste is pretty revolting I actually hid it in a different cabinet of mine until I managed to give it away.

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

Although it does have a very strong cherry smell in the bag, the previous "cough syrup" comments are not warranted. Once brewed, the flavor is light, yet very flavorful and wonderful. This tea makes me happy!

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

I usually drink black teas but have been drinking green and white for the past year. I love this tea and dont think it taste like cough syrup at all. I can see where people might think that but honestly, that never crossed my mind till i read the reviews just now. Bottom line, i love this tea!

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

I will agree with previous reviews that it can taste cough syrupy, but that is ONLY if this tea is over-steeped. Brew it for the prescribed time and this tea is absolutely delightful. The subtle cherry flavor balances the green tea wonderfully.

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

This was the first Teavana tea I ever bought. I wanted to get Snow Geisha but thought it was too expensive, so the clerk recommended Japanese Wild Cherry. I absolutly love this tea! The smell and flavor are wonderful. I think the flavor is very light. This tea does NOT taste like cough syrup!

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

Love it! I would drink this every chance I got! I went in the store and bought it hot very very good! Asked for a little sugar.

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

I love this tea as a drink that helps curb a sweet tooth & it satisfies me. It is very smooth & goes great with any fruity snack. I heard that this tea was being discontinued & am very sad at the possibility!

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

The green tea is so overpowered by the cherry smell and flavor you would think you were drinking cough syrup. It is also a pain in the butt to filter. I tried drinking this tea many times, but my opinion never changed. If you don't like the taste of cherry cough syrup or maraschino cherries, this tea is definitely NOT the tea for you!

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

This tea smelled good in the store compared to the other green teas they have, but when i brewed it at home, it tasted like artificial cough syrup. i always finish all my tea, but not this one. it was nauseating and i only could stomach about 1/4 of the cup. i made it iced and it was still gross! i love green tea, if it is of good quality. i love teavana's red, white and black tea. i just wish i could find a good green tea there. i reccommend strawberry paraiso, roobios peach bloom and strawberry pu-erh, but this one, they should discontinue!

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

I thought I would love this tea, but after getting it I was sorely dissapointed. It smells extremely sweet and tastes the same. The cherry bits and cherry smell overpower the "green" part of the tea quite a bit, so if you love cherries, this tea is for you. Otherwise, forget it.

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

I love Teavana and I order online regularly. But I will not make the mistake of not reading the reviews before purchasing online. The comments other people wrote about the cough syrup taste were all so true. I will not purchase this one again.

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

Wow! I bought this tea just for the name and the smell after visiting the store. It's not too sweet, even though it smells like it might be, nor is it sour, as some cherry-type teas can be. Steeps quickly, so you can enjoy it quickly. I think it is greatly enhanced by a few stirs with the Rock Sugar Sticks. (One stick will go a long way, too.) I like this tea anytime, but especially as an after dinner/relaxing tea, and I like eating chocolate with it. The flavors mix nicely.

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

This tea smells and tastes like cough syrup. As I have a strong aversion to artificially cherry flavored items, I could not stomach it and threw it all away. I know that it has real bits of cherry in it, but it tastes 100% artificial. If you happen to like that artificial cherry taste, look no further, here's your tea, but this is not for me.

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

I steep for about 3 minutes and use liquid Stevia extract to sweeten after pouring in the cup. (About 4 drops of Stevia per 8 oz cup.)

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

My favorite green tea for work. Very little caffeine but enough pep to keep me going. Smells wonderful and tastes great!

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

I was in the mall looking at the wall of tea and the name caught my attention. This was my first ever purchase from Teavana. Within the first two weeks I had already used what I had.

It's a wonderfully light tea. I don't think it smells like cough syrup. Make sure you soak it for the right amount of time, but it is a wonderful, light and sweet tea!

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

I dont hate this tea but i will not repurchase because to me there is a slight odd aftertaste it may be that i just dont like cherries as much as i should or maybe its flashbacks of being a child and drinking that nasty cherry cough meds?

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

I simply love this tea. Just opening the tin gives me a lift. I read the other comments about the cough syrup scent, but to me cough syrup smells medicinal more than cherry. This tea is light and fresh, with the wonderful sweet fragrance of cherry blossoms. I drink it several times each day. I highly recommend it.

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

I bought this 3 days ago and i have already brewed 6 tea pots. My mother loves it i do too. And a friend of mine who isn't to big into tea drinking loves it also. I also used very little and reused the leaves and got 3 pots out of one tablespoon. I read the other reviews and they say it tastes like cough syrup but mine doesn't at all. I also over steeped it and it still was soft.

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

I love the aroma of this tea when I open the tin. I'll admit that I sometimes do this even when I'm not brewing it. I can drink a whole pot of it myself while I am working late at night, but anything I don't drink gets consumed by someone in the house the next morning.
As with any green tea, follow the time and temperature directions carefully, or the brew will be bitter.
If plain sencha is too grassy for you (as it is for my wife), this is a great way to get green tea into your routine.

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

I usually love flavored green teas, and I have tried many times to like this one. I couldn't get over the cough syrup-like taste and ended up throwing it out.

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

This was the first tea I ever tried from Teavana. My boyfriend likes fruity teas, and I like green teas, so I ordered this tea recently hoping it would be something we would both enjoy. We do! It is quite tasty and lightly sweet, with perhaps just a bit of tartness - very like a cherry.

Right out of the bag, I would agree that the tea does smell a bit like cherry cough syrup, or what initially came to my mind, one of those saccharine-sweet Cherry-Flavored icees. But when brewed, I found the tea to be more green than fruity and very pleasant. It only needs to be steeped for a minute - like many green teas, it requires a bit of a light touch. It's worth it. I enjoy this tea very much and will likely order it again.

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

I don't like to put sugar in my tea, so it was surprising how sweet this was. If you don't like the smell of the tea leaves (if you're going to the store), you shouldn't try it because I found that the tea tends to stay true to that initial whiff. It's not too bitter or too strong in my opinion. It's one of my favorite teas.

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

i love this tea !! it has a distinct cherry after taste that is wonderful !! it does need sugar though.. overall, a great tea!!

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

Just the right amount of cherry and sweetness. Very pleasing cup of tea.

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

Has a bitter taste to it even when steeped right. Smelled good but bitter after tasted. Tasted much better when I mixed it with Rooibos Tropica.

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

The aroma of this loose tea was very pleasing. Having an auto tea brewer and correctly heated water and accurately timed infusion, the tea taste leaves me quite dissappointed.

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

I just got this tea yesterday. It smells a bit like cough syrup, which should have been a red flag. it's very very bitter! i added some sugar which helped, but it's just a bit too much for my taste. But who knows, it may just be me. It certainly tastes like cherries, though!

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

This is probably the most overall delicious tea I've ever had. It's extremely fruity, and while it definitely isn't the snootiest or most robust tea I've had, you just can't beat the general tastiness.

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

I love the sweet but tart taste of this tea

Comments about Teavana Japanese Wild Cherry Flavored Green Tea:

this is the greatest green tea i a have ever had. I hope they never decide to disconinue this tea
