Adagio Advent Calendar – Day 6
Wow, this has a shockingly low rating! And several of the ratings are in the single digits… Needless to say, I am not optimistic LOL! It smells fine in the dry leaf, a bit like banana Runts, but not unpleasant.
I’m definitely flummoxed by the crazy low ratings for this one… I mean, it’s not great, but it’s fine. The white tea is fairly musty with hay notes, as I would expect from a generic white tea. The fruit comes off as banana Runts to me, with maybe a little pear in the background. It has a bit of crispness at the end of the sip, which is nice and brings out the pear a bit.
Maybe they changed the recipe over the years? A lot of the really low ratings are several years old…

I remember liking that one okay — I preferred it cold brewed (but I tend to drink most fruity greens/whites that way).
Clearly you didn’t taste banana Runts then! ;) A pear white tea does sound amazing cold brewed.
Oh no, not at all. I would definitely have been one of the single digit reviewers had that been the case, hahaha. (This is why I’m glad all my reviews are saved on an external, searchable text document…) Leafy, artificial pear. Drinkable.
It was okay but I bought it to make sweet iced tea last summer. I was underwhelmed and have it in the stack of tea to send back to school with my daughter, Youngest.
