White Peony (Pai Mu Tan) from Adagio Teas
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,...
Pouchong from Adagio Teas
Style: Pouchong Tea – Region: Taiwan / Formosa50 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 2/5
Mar. 8th, 2015
The aroma is intensely floral, hello notes of hyacinth, orchids, and a mellow finish of chestnuts. It is like flower nectar and mild, sweet, nuts, the aroma overall is fairly mild while also being heady.
First steep starts out pretty mild, and finishes pretty mild, it is a super mellow tea without much of a presence...
Anhui Emerald Seed from Adagio Teas
Style: Lu An Melon Seed – Region: Anhui, China83 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 20th, 2015
The aroma of the leaves is a delicate blend of green beans and sesame seeds with a touch of spicebush flowers and hyacinth. There is also a tiny hint of chestnut at the finish, the aroma notes are not the strongest, but they are pleasant in their delicateness.
The taste is refreshing, it starts with a blend of melo...
Hunan Gold from Adagio Teas
Style: Yellow Tea – Region: Hunan, China83 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 10th, 2015
First up, the aroma is like spring time, specifically it evokes my favorite flower (ok one of them, I really love flowers) peony! It also has the aroma of delicate orange blossoms, chestnuts, and just a hint of mown grass and honey. The notes are delicate, reminding me more of a breeze bringing in these aromas through ...

Rooibos from Adagio Teas
Style: Rooibos – Region: South Africa83 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 3rd, 2015
The aroma of the little red leaves is sweet and woody, exactly the way I expect Rooibos to smell! I do not drink it unblended nearly enough, which is tragic because I love the stuff. There are also notes of caramel, a touch of honey, the tiniest hint of pepper and much to my surprise and ending hint of pie crust, which...

Minecraft Slime from Adagio Teas
Style: Flavored Green Tea – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jan. 3rd, 2015
The aroma is a quirky blend of lime jello, growing green things, and wet stone, name aside, this smells exactly like I imagine a Slime bouncing around in a cave would smell...wet and citrus with hints of green! The smell makes me giggle, it makes my nose tingle like sniffing a fizzy soda, it is a little weird but fun.

Green Rooibos Key West from Adagio Teas
Style: Flavored Rooibos – Region: Blend87 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Jul. 22nd, 2014
The aroma is a great blend of tropical fruit and apricot, citrus, a touch of floral, and a tiny hint of woodiness and bamboo. It certainly lives up to its name as of sniffing the dry leaves, which is always a good sign.
Tasting time! The first sip starts off a little dry and mild then all of a sudden a tropical frui...
Yunnan Noir from Adagio Teas
Style: Yunnan Gold – Region: Yunnan, China83 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Jul. 14th, 2014
The aroma of the dry tea is rich and quite sweet, with notes of cocoa, roasted peanuts, yams, honey, and a delicate finish of dried cherry. It is nothing short of mouthwatering, but I do have a great love for this kind of tea.
The first steeping is light, a creamy blend of sweet cocoa, roasted peanuts and a rich aft...
Citron Green from Adagio Teas
Style: Fruit Green Tea – Region: China87 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
May. 15th, 2014
The aroma is primarily a blend of sweet oranges and sour lemon with a nice artichoke finish. The aroma of citrus always puts me in a good mood, it is like sunshine on a cold day, I smell it and I cannot help but smile.
The taste is both light and bright, it quenches the thirst and brings a feeling of happiness. A gr...
Yunnan Jig from Adagio Teas
Style: Yunnan Gold – Region: Yunnan, China77 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Dec. 14th, 2013
The aroma of this tea is fairly delicate with notes of muscatel, oak, and summer berries. When brewed it takes a turn for the malty and stronger oak notes.
The taste is bright and clean with notes of muscatel, sweetness, and dark chocolate. It is a great afternoon tea.
Pu Erh Chorange from Adagio Teas
Style: Flavored Pu-erh – Region: Yunnan, China80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Dec. 6th, 2013
The aroma of this tea is so reminiscent of Chocolate Oranges that I think I got instantly transferred to a Christmas candy store. There is a bit of the Pu Erh Earthiness but mostly it is chocolate and oranges. Same for when the tea is steeped.
The taste is very smooth, sweet and well balanced. The chocolate and ora...
Pu Erh Hazelberry from Adagio Teas
Style: Flavored Pu-erh – Region: Yunnan, China77 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Dec. 3rd, 2013
The first thing I noticed about this tea's aroma is the strawberry, which immediately reminded me of Crunch Berries! I also pick up notes of cream, hazelnut, earthiness, and minerals. It is a complex tea.
The taste is also complex, first there is a blend of earthy, metallic, and mineral flavors that really pop in m...
Chestnut Tea from Adagio Teas
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Sep. 7th, 2013
This tea is nutty goodness! The aroma is nutty, malty, and just slightly burnt. Luckily the burnt aroma fades with brewing and the aroma becomes much richer.
The taste is delicious, very evocative of the cold night curled up in front of a fire munching on chestnuts. Subtle sweetness mixed with roasted nuttiness for...
Birthday Tea from Adagio Teas
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Aug. 21st, 2013
When you open up a bag of loose tea and see sprinkles hanging out with the leaves you cannot help but smile. I got a sample of this from Adagio when I ordered a bunch of tea for my birthday...so nice when a company pays attention to these things!
The aroma is so uncannily like a cupcake that I could have been foole...
Minecraft Creeper Tea (Signature Blend) from Adagio Teas
Style: Green Tea – Region: Blend77 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
May. 30th, 2013
This a great tea for people who love Green tea with interesting layers. At first the aroma is one of flowers and slight smokiness (ok, not terribly evocative of Creepers, but really, what does one even smell like! Maybe it does smell like flowers) The taste reminds me overall of spring time. The flavors seem to have di...

Cherry Green from Adagio Teas
Style: Fruit Green Tea – Region: ?????67 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
May. 30th, 2013
The first thing you notice is the almost overwhelming aroma of cherries when you open the bag, not bad but very strong. After a brew you still get the aroma and a delicate taste of cherries and a mild green tea. A very smooth tea evoking spring time. I found this tea was best straight with no sugar or cream since it is...

White Pear from Adagio Teas
Style: Fruit White Tea – Region: Fujian, China37 / 100 Aroma: 3/10 Flavor: 1/5 Value: 3/5
May. 30th, 2013
I really wanted to like this tea, but something just didn't work for me. I think it was because the pear aroma and flavor tasted more like a candy or artificial flavoring than pear, and considering pear is my favorite fruit I might be just really picky. The actual tea flavor was oddly dirty and unlike any white I have ...

Spiced Apple Chai from Adagio Teas
Style: Chai / Spiced Tea – Region: ?????60 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 3/5
May. 30th, 2013
So many spices and appley goodness! It is like a perfect Apple cider with a Masala style zing. It is perfect for a cold morning. The aroma or both the leaves and the liquid is like autumn, all apples and warm spices. My only complaint is that the apple cider taste seems to drown out the tea making it more like drinking...

Blueberry from Adagio Teas
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon80 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
May. 30th, 2013
I am extremely picky when it comes to blueberry flavored tea, I want it to taste like ripe, sweet, blueberries and not tart unpleasant fruit. So many teas make the tart mistake but not this one! The aroma when opening the package is blueberries all the way, an added plus when you actually see blueberries in the leaves....

Cream from Adagio Teas
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon77 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
May. 30th, 2013
This is such a decadent tea! Delicious and bold the aroma is that of rich, sweet cream and the taste matches. A great dessert tea and an even better breakfast tea (if you want something sweet first thing).
I would not recommend this tea if you are not a fan of sweets!
Pu Erh Dante from Adagio Teas
Style: Pu-erh Tea – Region: Yunnan, China57 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
May. 30th, 2013
I really wish I could rate this tea as good or great, but sadly I cannot. The aroma is one of earthiness and woodiness, it reminded me of an old wood trunk or even a humidor. The taste was not overwhelming, but it did taste very strongly of earthiness and leather, much as the description says, but after the drinking it...

Apr. 12th, 2013
Very mild and floral with a slight hint of that typical 'green' taste of green teas. Very delicate and mild and perfect for someone longing for a spring day! I think this might be my new favorite green

Apr. 12th, 2013
I am usually not a huge fan of honeybush tea but this tea was delicious! The hazelnut compliments it perfectly and it lasts several steepings. Really good with a dash of cream.

Apr. 12th, 2013
This chai is not bad but it is also not very overwhelming. I was hoping for more of a rich spicy chai with a chocolate zing but it was mainly a mild chai with more chocolate aroma than taste.

Guanabana from Adagio Teas
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon90 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Apr. 12th, 2013
This just might be my new favorite from Adagio! Wonderfully floral and fruity with just a slight tart taste...just like guanabana fruit. It tastes good black or with a bit of sugar and milk.
