I placed a BF order with Adagio for some basic essentials. It came with so many samples that I was able to DIY a 12-day Adagio advent! Once I catch up on the first few, I’ll probably slot these in to alternate with the Tea Thoughts tea days. Day 1 is this blend. I accidentally oversteeped by 10 minutes and only had enough leaf for one cup, so this is probably not a reflection of how it’s optimally meant to taste. It’s not bad, though. Like peach gummy candy flavor on a woody rooibos base. Not amazing, but serviceable, and would probably be tasty iced.
ETA: The cup cooled before I could finish it, and I did not in fact find this pleasant as an iced tea. The flavors sort of separated? Like they blended decently when it was hot but once it cooled, they became discordant and the peach took on a more chemical-y quality, for lack of a better descriptor.
