So I’m still craving that lemon flavor and found this sad little sipdown in a box. I didn’t know I still had any left. I accidentally steeped this too long so it may be really bitter. Not too bad actually!
This tea is predominantly black tea with hints of crystallized, sugary lemon bits. It is pretty good and always gives a kick of caffeine. I’m always surprised that I like this one so much, but it really is one of Adagio’s better flavored teas.
And speaking of Adagio, I wasn’t supposed to get my next box until tomorrow, but I just saw that it is out for delivery today! I’m actually really excited that I’ll have something to look forward to tonight. My husband is going to be out and so I’ll need this little push to get me through my essay.
edit blah. As this cooled the bitterness seemed to come to play. The last sip of this was pretty bad. I have to say, the black base on some of their teas are very finicky and sometimes not worth the risk. I love the flavors when they are steeped correctly, but can be a terrible mishap as well.
This is some funky smelling stuff! lolol I don’t drink it much because it really is just a strange tea. This is kinda lemony; I guess more in a lemon cookie or pie shell or something. It’s lacking the major citrus bite that I was expecting from something labeled “lemon.” I like this a lot, despite the weirdness. I can’t say that this would be my highest recommendation from Adagio, but worth the sample.
Riddle me this: I hate earl grey, but I love this. They smell somewhat similar. But this for some reason appeals to me while earl grey continues to allude me.
I had a bad day. That is an understatement. I hate today. But I’m trying to relax, hence the tea.
This tea is very nice. It is lemony without being tart, bitter, or otherwise unpleasant. It is not an every day tea for me. But nevertheless, I really do like this one and have it on rainy days such as this one. I’m almost out of my sample and I would suggest others to at least give this one a shot.
