drank White Pear by Adagio Teas

This sounded so good when I ordered it. I’m crazy about anything pear, but this… it was a huge disappointment. Even when brewed with twice as much tea as recommended, it still barely has any flavor. And what flavor you do get tastes nothing like pears. The tea itself doesn’t even really smell like pears. When I drank my last cup, there was a kinda unpleasant aftertaste, but mostly I could only taste the sugar I put in it. :(

I’ve been on the lookout for a good pear tea. Will not be trying this one!

drank Vanilla by Adagio Teas

I really love this tea, but I wish the vanilla taste was stronger. The taste of the ceylon overpowers it. And yet, I probably will keep buying it. :) It’s wonderful to mix with fruity blends. Adds a smooth dimension to any tea.

drank Blueberry Rooibos by Rishi Tea

First of all, this tea smells amazing. When I opened the tin, the room instantly filled with a mouth-watering blueberry scent. But I’m just not a fan of rooibos. It has that odd rooibos aftertaste that I just can’t get used to. Aside from that, though, it’s a great tea. If you’re into flavored rooibos, I’d say to go for it. It brews up a nice shade of magenta.

drank Blueberry by Adagio Teas

Before I say anything, I need to say that the blueberry flavor in this is STRONG. So strong that my ingenuiTea smelled like blueberries for a week. Aside from that, this is a good tea. Not my favorite blueberry tea, but it’s still very good. I’d definitely recommend it.

I guess it’s kinda odd to review a tea I made, but I’m going to anyway. :) It’s a blend of three green teas and tastes very fresh and clean with a hint of Froot Loops. To get a perfect cup, I brew two teaspoons per cup at 180 degrees. This tea was featured and reviewed on Adagio TeaV on March 23rd, ’09.

drank Dewy Cherry by Adagio Teas

Usually, I love anything cherry. But this… it was just not what I was hoping for. The cherry taste seemed way too strong and artificial. I was reminded of cherry cold medicine and never finished my sample tin.

drank Raspberry Patch by Adagio Teas

Love it! The flavor is amazing. Very vivid and sweet. It’s almost perfect without sweeteners, and the little dried berry bits are pretty tasty by themselves. It has absolutely no bitterness and a hint of apple flavor. It’s like brewing tea out of trail mix!

drank Passionfruit by Adagio Teas

Another favorite of mine from Adagio. It’s great hot, and has a sweet taste and scent. Almost floral, but in a good way. Whenever I place an order at the site, I always get a sample tin to keep around.

drank Green Tea Rejuvenation by Yogi Tea

There must have been something wrong with the box I tried. There was definitely a hint of fish-like flavor in both the taste and scent. I couldn’t stand to drink it, and neither could my sister. We were revolted.

drank Aztec Sweet Chili by Yogi Tea

I got this sample in the mail and really did not like it. I like the idea of having cayenne pepper in a tea, but it just doesn’t work with this. To me, at least. Also, I can’t stand the taste of fennel seed, so that really ruined it for me.
