"I love Adagio's samplers. They give you a chance to find out your likes and dislikes. I've discovered that I'm not a big fan of green tea although I will probably order more Genmai Cha and White Monkey which were included in my sampler."
"I would have given it a great rating if it wasn't for the Sencha Overture. It tastes horrible (like liquid veggies) and the remaining steeped tea leaves smelled like latex gloves. This would have gotten an awful but this is for the sampler, which is pretty good. Gun Powder is nice. White Monkey & Green Pekoe is the green tea you think about, but much, much tastier! AGAIN, JUST TO REITERATE: SENCHA OVERTURE=YOU'RE LIKELY TO WANT TO REMOVE YOUR TONGUE AFTER DRINKING. BEWARE! "
"Samplers are good for just that, sampling. I got a chance to very quickly learned a lot about what I lke and don't like in my green tea. I am bummed that two of the teas listed were replaced with alternatives (as stated they could be without notice) but those two are probably the two I would have liked the best as they have fruits infused. Still, very glad I got this sampler. It was a cheap was to find discover my likes and dislikes in greens - as I am typically an herbal drinker. Well work this and will be buy more samplers for other types soon. "
"I really liked this sampler. I didn't love every single tea in it, but that's why it was so great. Now I know what 2 green teas I want to order and which 4 I dont. (Vanilla Green and Gunpowder were my favorites)"
"Very nice selection of teas. I started by trying the teas I was least likely to enjoy, and fell in love with each sample one by one. A great way to explore new greens!"
"Also another great selection of green teas that helps the tea drinking newbies establish their tastes."
