Teaviews Member: Shane Shane's review:
"Plenty of teas that include mint in them, but none of them that I have come across have had it center stage and pull it off as well as this one."

Adagio Paper Tea Filters

8/10  —  1 review
Teaviews Member: Stephen Stephen's review:

Adagio Cocomint Green Tea

7.6/10  —  4 reviews
Teaviews Member: James James's review:
"Starts with more of a mint taste and finishes with a chocolate aftertaste with just a hint of mint... very nice, though not quite as strong as I would have preferred."

      7/10
Teaviews Member: Nina Nina's review:
"The chocolate flavor predominates the mint and green tea, but this is otherwise an excellent blend that I have already re-ordered."

Teaviews Member: Stephen Stephen's review:
"An interesting blend, but the chocolate and mint flavors seem at odds with the particularly vegetal green tea used as a base. "

Teaviews Member: James James's review:
"Might be too weak for those who love green teas with a strong vegetal taste, but otherwise a good, safe, "entry tea" for those new to high-quality green tea."

Adagio Apricot Green Tea

6.7/10  —  5 reviews
Teaviews Member: Vanessa Vanessa's review:
"A delicately-flavored apricot green tea that's just about right for me... the flavor doesn't overpower the green tea, as you'll find in many similar blends."

      8.5/10
Teaviews Member: Nina Nina's review:
"There's just a hint of apricot flavor here, and it gets drowned out by the overwhelming taste of the green tea. Not a favorite for me."

Teaviews Member: Shane Shane's review:
"You have to use a lot of leaves to get some decent flavor out of this blend, but once you do its not too bad. "

Adagio Oolong #8

Adagio Citron Green Tea

6/10  —  5 reviews
Teaviews Member: James James's review:
"A solid everyday green tea that would work well as a introduction to green tea... but more seasoned drinkers would likely not be overly impressed.,"

Adagio Ti Kuan Yin Trio (Loose)

5.3/10  —  3 reviews
Teaviews Member: Cindy Cindy's review:
"A pleasant-tasting oolong, but I prefer mine with a bit more flavor than this blend provides."
Read review »
      6/10
Teaviews Member: Shane Shane's review:
"This starts out almost floral with some sweetness, followed by a nutty taste... reminiscent of a genmaicha, but compared to other Ti Kuan Yin's out there this isn't anything special."
Read review »
      5/10
Teaviews Member: Stephen Stephen's review:
"Sort of a mix between a green tea and an oolong, with an almost nutty flavor. Not a personal favorite, but certainly a unique and interesting blend for die-hard oolong fanatics. "

Adagio Yunnan Gold

Adagio Strawberry Tea
