drank Raspberry by Adagio Teas
60 tasting notes

I have had this tea before, but never posted my review of it…
Here’s my first impression:

In the bag it smelled slightly medicinal, as raspberry sometimes can. Once brewed however the smell sweetened up and was quite enticing. The raspberry flavor is more subtle than I would have liked, and the medicinal quality was a bit off-putting. It was pretty disappointing considering I love raspberries so much.

I just revisited this tea, as my husband bought me a big jar of raspberry jam. I’ve been looking at my tea box longingly, just waiting to try this tea out with a big scoop of raspberry jam in the cup. Since my nose was a bit stuffed up & I didn’t want to try out any of the delicate white tea samples that Stacy so generously sent me with my sense of smell compromised. So raspberry tea it is.

Adding the jam in this tea really made a HUGE difference. It actually tastes like raspberries this time around. It’s just as tasty as it cools down, too. Now I can actually drink this tea and not just stare at it taking up space in my tea box. I wish the tea tasted this good without the need for jam, but I’ll take it :)

Fruit flavored teas fall short of my expectations much of the time.

I’m finding that I feel the same way. A lot of the fruit teas I’ve tried have come across very artificial tasting. It just makes me want to keep trying to see if I can find fruit teas that doesn’t disappoint! That being said the Cantaloupe & Cream from Butiki wasn’t disappointing in any way- very juicy and sweet, like drinking a melon :)
