Gummy wreath treats
Intensely sweet, almost syrupy, and very soft bordering on squishy. Intensely pine flavored and somewhat tannic like wine or tea - the "tastes like a wreath" description is pretty accurate.I'd overall describe it as all of my memories of the holidays as a treat. Definitely a polarizing love-it-or-hate-it item.

Wonderful
So different. A special treat. Add a few to plain vanilla ice cream!

Tastes like sweet pinecones
Tastes exactly as you would expect. Sweet, tender, tiny pinecones. Not personally a fan, a bit overwhelming in terms of the potent pine flavor. I wouldn't eat them right out of the bag, but I think they will be super cute as garnishes on cakes or cupcakes.

It tastes like a wreath and that's an acquired taste
I've been wanting to try these for a time now and have to say they taste what you'd expect a wreath to taste like but without your tongue getting poked. At first it was a bit much for me and I wasn't in love with the flavor. I didn't think it was bad, just an acquired taste. Due to the pricing I figured I might as well finish the bag and oh my God I need more. They're soft and the taste like happiness.I'd definitely recommend and would say it's worth trying!

An Aquired Taste— and texture...
I am not aversed to food that is outside my usual pallet. I try to go into any new food with an open mind, and so it was for this.The taste is not unpleasant, nor is it unexpected. These are pinecones; they taste like pine. Shocking, I'm sure. That taste is not a bad thing by any stretch of the imagination, pine pairs nicely with a wide varity of flavors, and I'm sure this along side a few shots of vodka would be fine.The issue for me is the texture, which I could not get over. Very soft, sticky, and unpleasant to sink one's teeth into. I'm uncertain if this was a bad batch or if I had simply eaten them incorrectly, but I could not stomach the whole bag, or even more than a couple.But then, I confess, I am not Siberian. This flavor holds no nostalga for me, nor is it one with which I have any history. I can't judge if these were simply a bad execution, or if this treat just isn't for me.Either way, buy this with some caution, or at least with the knowledge that this will be a very atypical treat, to say the least.

Tastes like a pinecone
They’re not horrible but to me it tastes like sugary tree sap.. it’s how you think a pinecone would taste but it was fun to at least try them and share with coworkers.

Package was split open now leary of eating. Says I can't return or get a new one. Not happy!
