I was so sad when I drank my last bit of this. BUT…I received a LINK REWARDS Package and this was one of them. YAY! It’s bold. It’s Dark. It’s powerful. Perfect for this morning!

After this cuppa I’m officially out of this tea from my stash…bummer…it was good while it lasted. Altho I have read some other reviews here about the “cigarette” type taste…I have noticed this with my last cup – I oversteeped AND added more than the suggested amount of loose leaf to the steep…I can see how some may pick up the smoky tones…I do believe, or at least with my latest experience, the cigarette-type taste (or aftertaste) may come from steeping too much – too long…suggestion – steep less for a shorter time – as I haven’t noticed that until now…might be more pleasant for you. I did, however, enjoy my overall time with this tea and will, again, revisit it, someday…

Drastically Oversteeped but still a great cup. If you oversteep by mistake – still drink it – it’s quite nice!!!!

I finally purchased this and I’m glad I did! It’s scent is not overbearing by any means. There isn’t too much of one scent but it’s reminiscent of several things. Typical Black Tea Color. Taste is Medium to Medium – Strong depending on how you steep and right at the end of the sip there’s an upward sweetness almost. Great cuppa to start the day!!!

This is a good tea but somewhat average. It has a nutty body with a long finish. Good everyday tea, does not excite.

Very fresh tasting. Not recomended for tasting purposes. It is a simple pick-up. Good iced, drink cold to mute some of the bitterness.

Very interesting tea. Drink immediately after steeping. It has a corn component to it that can be overpowering as the tea cools. The heat keeps all other flavor but mutes the corn a little bit.

After today I should only have enough for one more attempt. I don’t know if I will re-order this one at least not for a while. I’m looking forward to discovering some new teas from Adagio. Regardless this smells of Minty-M&Ms today…but taste more green tea-esque than in previous infusions. Still an OK cuppa!

Cofftea

One of my absolute favorite dessert teas. Inspite of the MASSIVE amount of tea I do have, I’m sad I’m out of this one.

Bethany

What do you think will be in your next Adagio order? I feel like I’ve ordered most of the ones that I wanted to try.

TeaEqualsBliss

Well, I probably won’t order until mid Jan…I’m going to get at least 4 blends of mine. I think I might do a chai or two and Dragon Pearl, maybe!?

I may have steeped this just short of 3 minutes but it still seemed to work. It’s very enjoyable.

Cofftea

It’s SO nice to get a dessert tea that you can actually taste the tea in!:) I’m thinking of preparing it the standard sencha way (1.5tsp/4oz water @160 degrees for 1 min)… I got some GREAT info from Den’s tea on Japanese greens!

TeaEqualsBliss

Interesting!
