Margaritaville

Black Green Blend by Custom-Adagio Teas

Has anyone ever heard of Margaritaville tea? A nice woman at my work just gave me a free sample, but I can’t find anything about it online. The label on the tea canister said TeaMuse & Adagio Teas, but it doesn’t show up on searches on either of those company sites. I’m not sure exactly what it is. It looks like a black tea/green tea blend with little light brown sticks I haven’t been able to identify. Anyone know what I’m talking about?? Thanks.


Confirmed: It is a custom blend by someone named Carol Lindquist. I have yet to figure out exactly what it is though.

Strange tea, this.

It has a spicy note to it that reminds me of an herb I cook with, but I can’t put my finger on it. Oregano, maybe? But not quite as powerful as oregano.

Overall, it tastes like a light black tea. But it has an interesting vegetal quality that’s probably coming from what I think is the green tea or it could be
lemongrass.

There’s no added fruit flavorings that I can tell. No astringency. Only a slight bitterness from oversteeping since I left the leaves in my cup as I drank it.

I haven’t tasted anything quite like it before. Maybe it’s a custom blend?

If anyone knows what this tea is or where to find it, please message me! It’s driving me crazy that I can’t find any information on it! Also, if you’d like a sample to try for yourself, please message me! I have a limited supply, but I’d appreciate the help identifying it.

It’s not the best tea I’ve ever had, but it’s far from the worst. So, it’s getting a middle of the road rating from me.
