I know I've praised Adagio's teas in the past, but lately I'm beginning to wonder if I may have been too kind. Don't get me wrong, I still love Adagio's e-commerce store (one of the best online stores of any kind, period), and their customer service is fantastic, but lately I've been comparing their tea blends to others in my cupboard and finding that I'm just as thrilled with them as I used to be.On deeper reflection, I think Adagio's teas are generally more appealing as novelties than they are as reliably, everyday brews. The first taste is generally fun and exciting and a bit new, but I've found that hardly any of their blends actually make their way into my regular rotations. Grapefruit Black is an excellent example. I ordered a sample tin, really enjoyed the tart, citrusy flavor the first few times and then ordered an 8oz can. Since that's arrived I've had it maybe 2-3 times, and not once has it been an "ahhhhh" kind of moment. The same goes for their Strawberry, P

White tea from China. Silver Needle is among the most revered of Chinese teas, produced in the Fuding and Zhenhe districts of its Fujian province. Gathered only in the few days of early spring, the preparation of this tea is governed by strict requirements to ensure a premium product. This dedication to perfection is evident in the cup, which is sweet and delicate with a clean, airy fragrance. Our “Sublime Needle” is a Special Grade (Bai Hao) version of this exquisite tea.

White tea from the Fujian province of China. White Peony, known locally as Pai Mu Tan, is a delicate tea made from tea buds collected and withered prior to opening. The latest medical findings suggest that white tea may be a more effective cancer fighter than even green tea. These findings have brought white teas to a much wider audience. If you are beginning your exploration of white tea, our “White A’ Cappella” tea will serve a wonderful introduction.

Oolong tea from the Wuyi mountains in the Fujian province of China. Wuyi Oolong grows defiantly in the gaps of the mountainous rock, rendering cultivation both arduous and spellbindingly beautiful. This tea is famous for its “dragonfly’s head, frog’s limbs and three colors.” The latter refers to the green, red and brown colors found in the cross-section of each leaf. Similar to other fine oolong teas, our “Wuyi Ensemble” may be infused a number of times, with each infusion revealing a new nuance of this tea’s complex flavor.

Oolong tea from the Fujian province of China infused with the delicate scent of the night-blooming jasmine flowers. If you enjoy jasmine tea, we urge you to try the sublime taste of its well-made varieties. Our “Jasmine Suite no. 12″ is an exotic Dragon Phoenix Pearl tea, comprised of intricate jasmine-infused pearls. Each pearl combines two delicate leaves and an unopened bud. When added to water, the pearls majestically unfurl, releasing their delicate scent and flavor. A spellbinding treat for all senses. While not cheap, this tea is well worth the experience.

A few days ago I gave Adagio's Jasmine Iced Tea a whirl. It was a really great tea, but one of those blends I just don't see myself drinking all that often. I likened it to a Thai Iced tea... perfect when you're munching down on some spicey Pad Thai, but not necessarily a drink you'd want to have every day. (Incidentally, I gave my fiance a sip of the jasmine and it nearly sent her into a fit of the dry heaves... so, its going to be one of those drinks you probably either love or hate.)With that experience behind me, I was looking forward to drinking Adagio's Black Iced Tea. And, much like the Jasmine tea, I liked it. I liked it a lot, in fact. It was crisp and clean and fresh-tasting, with a nice bite to it and a fairly smoky aftertaste. The little write-up on the bottle describes it as a "smooth peppery taste" and I guess I can see that, but for me the key word is smoky - like a light or somewhat-mixed Lapsang Souchang.But in the end I come to the same conclusion as with the jas

After my somewhat harrowing experience with Harney & Son's Peppermint Herbal Tea (it smelled great and tasted awful), I was pretty enthused to try Adagio's Casablanca Twist Green Tea. I bought it for two reasons. First, I really do enjoy a refreshing and soothing mint tea, particularly at night. Second, it was Adagio's highest rated green tea (tied with Apricot at 4.6/5). I played it safe and got the $3 sampler tin.To paraphrase a movie, "We're going to need a bigger tin."This stuff is great! Smells wonderful out of the tin, but most importantly, tastes wonderful in your cup. The peppermint really shines through as the dominant flavor, but its not so overpowering as to be medicinal, as can sometimes be the case. The green tea flavor is muted but still there, and there's just the slightest after-aroma of something earthy which I can't quite place. Altogether its a magnificent blend, one of the best mint teas I've had, hands down.Adagio says the blend is based on Moroccan Mint

Like almost all of Adagio's teas, their Strawberry black tea smells absolutely wonderful straight from the tin. When my latest order from Adagio arrived today, with eight new flavors I've not tried before, I had a hard time deciding which one to try. The one I probably anticipated the least was strawberry. I'm generally not a huge fan of berry-flavored teas - they generally taste either too tart and bitter or too sweet and artificial. But as I was opening the tins and dipping my nose into each one for the traditional sniff-sniff, I really, really loved the aroma of the strawberry tea. So, that was the first one on the brewing block.It also gave me a chance to try out Adagio's tea filters. They're all paper, long and wide, so that you dip the tea in one end and let the long paper top folder over the cup while it brews. The packaging says this allows the tea much more room to circulate and steep, but for me at least, all the tea leaves bunch together at the bottom, forming a tight l

Adagio is one of the few tea companies I've come back to again and again when ordering tea online. They get e-commerce - every aspect of it. The store is cleanly designed and easy to navigate. Each tea has clear pictures of the tea blend (and not just the packaging, which, let's face it, is the least important aspect of a tea, but the only one most companies show you). Each has dozens, if not hundreds, of reviews from previous customers, as well as an overall rating from 1 to 5 (most hover between 3.5 and 4.7, so the range is a bit compressed). And best of all, they sell cheap little 10-serving tin-samplers for about $2 or $3 (a rare few cost $5) so you can sample any tea that strikes your fancy without breaking the pocketbook.Orders above $50 ship for free - though in my experience they tack on a $2 "rural surcharge" for certain areas (ahem, mine). That's not a big deal though. And perhaps best of all, they have an automatic customer appreciation program, where you earn a "point"

My favorite brew is Earl Grey, but Adagio's Earl Grey Bravo was one of the biggest tea disappointments I've yet experienced (if only because its aroma was so mind-blowingly perfect). Fortunately, Adagio more than made up for this blooper with their Citron Green. Its not technically an Earl Grey, but fans of the brew will no doubt recognize the bergamot-like aroma straight out of the bag. But whereas Earl Grey Bravo completely overdid the bergamot flavoring, resulting in a bitter, perfumey taste, they got things just about perfect with Citron Green. It smells great and tastes wonderful. Its made with a fairly light green tea blend, so those who aren't generally "greenies" don't have to worry about imbibing a brew that tastes either like tree bark or grass clippings. Instead its a light, fruity drink that hits all the right notes. The citron flavor which is so abundant in the aroma is nicely subdued in the taste, perfectly complimenting the olfactory experience. One caveat - it

Yes, yes, I know - any tea afficionado worth his salt (or crystalized ginger) will tell you that loose teas provide the richest flavor... that teabags generally contain the lowest grade tea leaves; basically the "leavings" that remain when all the "good tea" is taken by the high grade buyers. Yes, in many cases this is true, but you know what... tea-bags are damned convenient, and brewing a cuppa loose tea is just a royal pain in the ass sometimes. Especially when you drink 5-6 cups a day (ahem) and you only have a few moments to brew a new bit of sunshine in between conference calls.So yes, I'll admit it - my old standby is Twining's Earl Grey, in (gasp) bagged form. I've tried infuser after infuser over the years, but the aggravation just wasn't worth it. Either the infuser's hole were too big, allowing tiny bits of leaves and detritus into the brew, or they were too small and poorly-designed, which would either (a) result in an underbrewed tea, regardless of how long you steepe
In a previous post I talked a little about how Earl Greys tend to have an aroma that's quite different from their taste. In my experience, most Earls have that same, delightful bergamot smell to them, while the taste can range from bitter to sour and, probably most often, to smoky. This to be is the ultimate let-down, because the smell of bergamot is perhaps one of my all-time favorite things in the world... and once its wafted into my nostrils, I just can't accept a smoky, bitter tea on my palate.Adagio however goes to the exact opposite extreme. Their Earl Grey (they call it Earl Grey Bravo) smells incredible - hands down, its one of the finest nasal experiences I've ever had with a tea. Its heavily, and I mean heavily, scented with fruity bergamot. There's even sizeable chunks of citron peel floating about in the mix. I remember first opening the bag and literally drooling at the prospect of drinking this tea.Biggest.... letdown.... ever.Whereas most Earl Greys smell of bergmot
