Ceylon Sonata from Adagio Teas
Style: Ceylon Black Tea – Region: Kandy, Sri Lanka57 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Oct. 5th, 2015
Very fruity. Fairly bitter. Pretty generic overall, a lot like many black teas I've tried.

Style: Irish Breakfast – Region: Blend77 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Oct. 5th, 2015
Rather mild. Fruity smell. Tastes woody, earthy, maybe a bit salty. Moderately astringent. I found it energizing.
I've tried the two Adagio teas that this is apparently a blend of, but this tastes totally different from either.
Genmai Cha from Adagio Teas
Style: Genmaicha – Region: Japan80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Oct. 5th, 2015
Nice roasted taste. Before looking up what that popcorn is made of, I thought that it might be some sort of bean because it tastes a bit like some hearty bean. Not bitter at all. Maybe a bit salty. The heartiness and bean flavor almost makes it taste like soup.

Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon83 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Oct. 5th, 2015
I've only had this as iced tea with sugar, not hot.
It took me a while to figure out how to prepare this to my taste. It was far too bitter when steeped cold overnight, and also when steeped in boiling water for 5 minutes (and then cooled). I found that steeping it in boiling water for around 4 minutes is best. To t...
Earl Grey Bravo from Adagio Teas
Style: Blue Flower Earl Grey – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon73 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Aug. 9th, 2015
This has been my go-to tea for the last couple of weeks. When it runs out, I'll probably try other types of Earl Grey, though maybe I'll buy this again someday. It's good, though basic.
It's a fairly mild tea with a very mild bergamot flavor. Only a little bitterness. Pretty astringent. You can only smell and taste ...
Chocolate Chai from Adagio Teas
Style: Chai / Spiced Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon97 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Aug. 4th, 2015
I really, really like this one. It's a great chai that works the chocolate flavoring just right. The cardamom is the most noticeable spice for the first couple cups, with the cinnamon showing up later. In both cases they were very smooth, not overwhelming or out of place.
This also works well whether you drink it pl...
Fruit Medley (Fruit Sangria) from Adagio Teas
Style: Fruit (Herbal) Tea – Region: Blend90 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Jun. 25th, 2015
A great herbal tea when you crave something tart. I love its strong fruitiness. The aroma has a floral accent as well. An excellent cup as far as I'm concerned. :-)
I had it iced from a coffee shop. Because it was cold I drank it very quickly. It was wonderfully refreshing.
Ginger Peach from Adagio Teas
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon80 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Jun. 24th, 2015
The peach and ginger flavors in this tea are muted, but very smooth. I really like this one! A part of me wishes that the fruit and spice were stronger, but mostly I think this makes an excellent morning tea. The black tea is robust without being overpowering or bitter, and it holds up to multiple infusions well. Great...

Style: Assam – Region: Assam, India83 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jun. 14th, 2015
It reminds me of Adagio's english breakfast, but a little more bitter and with more flavor in general. At first I thought it was overwhelmingly bitter, but I got used to it. It's hearty, with some sweetness. Very astringent. Earthy. Fruity, maybe including a bit of lemon.

Style: Chai / Spiced Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon50 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 2/5
Jun. 10th, 2015
It smells good, but the taste of cloves is really overpowering. When the tea is in my mouth I feel like I'm drinking hot water with a bunch of ground cloves mixed in, and it almost tastes burnt. Only after swallowing it do I detect any of the other spices: some ginger and a surprisingly small amount of cinnamon. I can'...

Style: Flavored Oolong – Region: Taiwan / Formosa70 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 5/5
Jun. 8th, 2015
Surprisingly good, though not a favorite. It has a relatively dark/roasted flavor from the tea (which isn't my favorite but was done well for what it is) and a lighter grapefruit flavor than I expected based on the smell of the dry leaf. The citrus flavoring really improved this style of oolong for me.
The second cu...
Snowbud from Adagio Teas
Style: White Tea – Region: Fujian, China83 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Jun. 3rd, 2015
This is an excellent white tea. The aroma is very faint, light, and floral. The taste complements the aroma beautifully with it's lightness and delicateness. It is quite sweet and fruity, but not in an overwhelming manner. There is not a bit of bitterness anywhere, but just smooth and simple sweetness. The taste and ar...

Style: Flavored Pu-erh – Region: Yunnan, China100 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Jun. 2nd, 2015
Ooooh, now this I like! This is my favorite flavored pu-erh by a lot. The tea is present, but not fishy. The fruity and nutty flavours blend perfectly with the chocolate bits, creating a complex and pleasing aroma and flavor. There is no bitterness, even after 5 minutes at boiling. Wonderful tea!
I also tried this t...
White Symphony from Adagio Teas
Style: White Peony Tea – Region: ?????60 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Jun. 1st, 2015
I was not a huge fan of this tea. It has a hint of nuttiness that I liked, but there was not the delicate sweetness that I enjoy in a white tea. Definitely a good tea, but not to my liking.

Style: Fruit White Tea – Region: Fujian, China80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
May. 31st, 2015
The aroma of the dry leaf is wonderful if intensely floral and fruity are what you like. Love it.
The white tea comes out much more stongly in the taste than in the scent. For my palate, the flavors blend pretty well -- though I'd be fine with even more blueberry flavor. Leaving the tea on a warmer improves it and d...
Chamomile from Adagio Teas
Style: Pure Chamomile Tea – Region: Egypt73 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
May. 30th, 2015
Although the only loose leaf versions of Chamomile I've tried, this variety seems to be very good. The flowers are all whole and very few are crushed. The steeped tea has a wonderful fruity aroma and a very smooth taste. It reminds me of honey. Very good, especially at night!

Style: Fruit (Herbal) Tea – Region: ?????77 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
May. 30th, 2015
This herbal concoction from Adagio has got to be one of my favorite herbal fruit teas. The aroma is just superb. Very sweet, yet also with a slight tartness, and definitely filled with orange. The flavor is dominated by the orange, but also has a strong hibiscus flavor and an overall hint of tartness. At the same time,...

Style: Fruit White Tea – Region: Fujian, China63 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
May. 30th, 2015
This is an interesting tea. I thought I would like the combination of blueberry and white tea, which I do, but the more I drink it the more I realize there is something off about this tea. I think there is too much blueberry for the amount of tea. The aroma is wonderful if smelled briefly. However, if you take in a ful...
Read Full ReviewRooibos from Adagio Teas
Style: Rooibos – Region: South Africa80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
May. 30th, 2015
Plain rooibos is definitely my favorite herbal tea. Adagio's rooibos has an earthy and sweet aroma that leads to that naturally sweet taste that is characteristic of rooibos. The taste is filled with strong undertones of vanilla and honey. It is smooth, but not as smooth as some other rooibos tea and even has a hint of...

Style: Flavored Rooibos – Region: ?????77 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
May. 30th, 2015
To start off, it is probably a good idea to say that rooibos is one of my favorite teas to begin with. That being said, I usually drink it straight, both hot and iced. I sometimes enjoy the flavored versions, but I always come back to the plain rooibos. However, I really enjoy the vanilla and rooibos blend in this tea....

Style: White Peony Tea – Region: Fujian, China53 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
May. 29th, 2015
The aroma of the fluffy leaves is pretty mild, you really need to sniff hard to detect much of an aroma, but when you do there are notes of cucumbers, melons, and a hint of paper and sage.
The taste is, well, you know, it is ok. Nothing to jump up and down about, it starts off with mild notes of cucumber and celery,...
Pina Colada from Adagio Teas
Style: Fruit (Herbal) Tea – Region: ?????93 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
May. 21st, 2015
Excellent herbal tea! The flavor and aroma are both dominated by pineapple and coconut--both of which I like. It's delightfully fresh and sweet without sweeteners. I do wish that the flavor was more intense, so I'll try a higher concentration next time. It brews easily without going bitter, and so can brew as long as ...

May. 18th, 2015
The dry tea has a strong smell that made me worry that it would taste artificial, but it doesn't. (And apparently the ingredients are in fact all-natural.) It's sweet, flavorful, and savory; like drinking a pie. Not too sweet, though, and it does have some detectable bitterness. As you'd expect, it has strong strawberr...

May. 17th, 2015
It tastes a lot like their sencha overture, but a little worse. While I would describe sencha overture as tasting like fresh spinach, this tastes more like canned spinach. It's more fishy, and the taste is a bit strange. The taste is also weaker and "softer". I don't dislike it, though! It's sweet, savory, and enjoyabl...

I really liked the roasted, woody taste of this. Not overwhelming, though. It's not very sweet, but has absolutely no bitterness. A little bit savory. Very satisfying in general.
