I was very excited to receive samples from Adagio and Verdant tea today. I did Verdant’s 5 for $5 and adagio’s single-steep samples for 75 cents each. All together, I got 19 different teas for $14. The white monkey was a free sample I got for buying samples on Adagio’s site, haha.
I wasn’t super optimistic because it seems cheaper than most adagio teas and, of course, I assume I have expensive taste! But, this has been a very pleasant surprise. Very mild and sweet, not bitter at all. It 100% smells like freeze dried strawberries to me, or maybe blueberries or mangoes.. papayas? Definitely some kind of fruit. I might be imagining it, but there’s a slight tartness with the fruitiness. I had to look it up again to make sure it’s not scented or flavored at all. A very interesting tea I will be happy to try again later!
Flavors: Fruity, Mango, Strawberry
