Adagio Teas - Discontinued

I had never heard of this before, but apparently it’s some sort of tropical fruit that we others can’t get because the fruit doesn’t transport very well.
The dry leaves smell weird. Sort of fruity and bitter at the same time. Like a very old orange. At this point I’m sceptic. Very sceptic.
Colour is nice and golden and the scent is something familiar that I can’t quite place. It’s not mouldy oranges anymore anyway.
The taste is…. strange. Fruity. Adagio suggests something akin to candied strawberry and pineapple. I can’t really ‘find’ those notes but at the same time I don’t really disagree either. I can’t tell when I don’t know how the fruit is supposed to taste.

I like it. I don’t think I’ll stock up on it once I’ve got through the sample, but I like it.

Another Backlog…another one going to a friend…

Haven’t had in a while…thought I would revisit…it’s ok…

Nice and light. Drank hot but I know it would be tasty iced, too!

Love this tea. I’ve had other Oolong’s but this is by far my favorite (so far).

A nice, simple green tea. Did two infusions and it held up well. Am about to see if I can squeeze a 3rd infusion.

Such a wonderful evening tea with hardly any caffeine.

Mmmm, good.

Used my new ingenuiTea (which is way cool) with this tea. Light and pleasantly sweet. Still good after three infusions! In fact, I think I’ll try a fourth…:)

Urk. I’m not sure what this is, but it ain’t lemons—grapefruit, maybe. Regardless, it is incredibly chemical-y; I actually poured the pot out.

Double cup, 2 Truvia

As promised, I ordered another sample tin of this to have around. Very tasty stuff – interesting to see how it compares to Orchid Oolong, which I’ve been drinking a lot more of since I last drank this. You can definitely notice the difference that the orchid makes in OO.

Polished off my sample. I’ve finished 3 Adagio samples inside of a week. I’m so proud of myself. Too bad I only have like 50 more.

I think I’ll reorder another sample size of this (once I’ve drunk down my stash a bit more). It’s really good, but I don’t drink it regularly.

Mmmm. Love this one. Sample’s almost out; need to buy more. This is a wonderful sweet oolong with a hint of young coconut.

From yesterday – whoops.

From yesterday afternoon. This is what flavored tea should taste like: the sip is pure green oolong, but the gulp is fresh, young coconut. Sweet without overwhelming the tea flavor. Great.

YUM

I can taste the Green Tea but it lacks the aftertaste…which is a good thing…YUM!

This smells a little different than the last time I steeped…after steeping (today) it reminds me of orange or grapefruit ‘skins’ prior or just after peeling…still nice…maybe even a hint of blossom, too.

I had this last night for the first time and LOVED IT…just forgot to log…Oops! The aroma, the coloring, the taste = all delightful!

This was the last of my stash – only bought a sample tin when I ordered – and the last tea of my day. This has a lovely scent and relaxing and light taste. My dogs are even intrigued by the scent but we NOT allowed a taste…silly dogs…TEA is for MOMMY!

Perfect end to today! Great taste and scent!
