A touch of sunshine in your cup these flavors will dance on your tongue never to overwhelm your pallet but rather help you recall the sounds of birds singing in the air and the smell of freshly blooming flowers carried on a breeze. The blend of apricot, vanilla, and citron green is a refreshing blend that will taste great iced or hot.
Another blend from Rachel! You rock the blends, girl!
:)
There IS something springy and airy about this…so I can totally make the connection to Spring! It’s still true to the green tea taste and the 3 flavors mesh nicely. I really can’t tell who is trying to cut to the front of the line…or maybe they aren’t trying at all. Regardless this is a tasty green!
Boo-YA! (And I mean that in the coolest way!)
CHEERS!
So I have been off tea for the past couple of days due to an awful canker sore that made swallowing extremely painful. It is finely healing and I got a new infuser so I had to have an afternoon cup of tea. This is nice and green tea! It is very green and grassy and I can taste a hint of apricot, but I am not sure I can taste the vanilla. Although it is a smooth cup which is probably the vanilla. Boy did I miss enjoying tea!!!
Thanks to Rachel for sending me some great samples. This was the first I tried. I drank it before looking up what flavors went into it and swear I could taste some cherry apricot wonderfulness in the fruity sweetness of this tea. I thunk this blend would be better iced, it had a tad too much going on for how I enjoy my green teas.
This tasting note has been made possible by Rachel – Thank you Rachel for sending me a sample of this blend to try!
I don’t have a lot of experience with the citron fruit, although I did have a citron marmalade once that was really quite delicious.
The flavor is really quite nice in this blend. The creamy vanilla dominates. The fruit flavors – apple and citron – aren’t as distinctive, its more like I can taste a fruity “medley” as opposed to a distinct apple and citrus flavor. The apple flavor does become more distinct in the sweet and smooth finish.
The green tea base is nice. I definitely prefer Adagio’s green tea base to their black tea base, which is a good thing in this particular blend, because the tea flavor is quite prominent. It has a pleasant fresh, vegetative flavor to it. Just slightly grassy, just slightly sweet, and I can detect no bitterness in it. Very enjoyable.
This is really a very tasty blend.
This was a really good blend! I can taste the green tea with a fruity, sweet note to it! Very nice! Before I knew it my cup was gone and then I was saddened by this :-(
The tea wasn’t as light and crisp as I hoped it would be. More like a syrup but I am almost sure if iced it would be much better. So now that it has been reformulated I will have to reorder it and try it again. However, as is it wasn’t terrible it was good but just now what I expected to be. The new version contains mostly citron green with small percentages of apricot and vanilla. I will add more notes as soon as I ice the original version of what I have reviewed.
