AMAZING! I was not a fan of the scent, it seemed too strong and in-your-face, but the taste is just out of this world! It’s excellent hot and cold, in fact I’d recommend the first cup steeped around a minute, consume hot, and then make a second cup (steep for closer to the recommended 5 minutes) and add ice. Bliss!

This is a strong dessert tea. I’m not sure I’d have it with food, but it is a full flavored standalone tea that is so rich that you don’t need anything else with it!

This one is pretty unexciting. The rooibus is also so small that it tends to make its way through the strainer. This makes me very, very unexcited by this tea. It is I will be quite pleased when it’s gone!

This is a very nutty, smooth coconut tea. I highly enjoy it! It’s excellent with a piece of dark chocolate in the afternoon!

This is a surprisingly tasty tea! I wasn’t sure about it at first and smelling it before brewing and once it was steeped didn’t thrill me. The taste, though, is out of this world! I would not have mixed these flavors personally so I’m glad someone did! It’s become a favorite of mine, one that I reorder with every Adagio purchase.

This was a surprising tea. I was expecting something like an extra-floral Earl Grey but this is something different. It has a range of floral notes, not unexpected from the ingredients list, but is extremely well-blended! There is a perfect range of floral notes, it’s not just a flowery punch in the face. The black tea is a perfect backdrop. I expected a thrown-together tea that was a cute gimmick for book stores, but now I’m regretting the fact that I only purchased this flavor!

This is one of those sweet, one-steep-only teas. I am a huge fan of sweet things but this is just too much for me! I also typically brew 2 – 3 mugs from one serving of tea leaves, but like many sweeter herbals, the flavor is pretty much exhausted in the first steep no matter how short it is.

This is a wonderful tea – really the only teabags I keep around, but keep them around I do! It’s the perfect accompaniment to a peanut butter and chocolate sandwich (recipe below) or a just before bed dessert drink. I like it in the summer when the mint gives a cooling vibe.

Sandwich Recipe: Toast some potato bread, add creamy peanut butter to both slices, sprinkle some chocolate chips on one slice, then sandwich it together and toss it in the microwave for ten seconds per side. You’ll thank me!

This is an excellent warm-weather tea! I love it in the summertime and with peanut butter and chocolate chip sandwiches (recipe below). The cool mint and tasty chocolate makes it a very enjoyable blend that I keep stocked!
