Description
In the famous poem 'The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock', T.S. Eliot wrote, 'do I dare to eat a peach?' The literary-minded folks at Adagio have taken it upon themselves to provide Mr. Eliot with an answer: no need to eat one. Just steep a cup of our premium Formosa oolong tea flavored with sweet peaches. Please, be a peach. Give this tea a try.
Story
Cultivation of peaches began in China as early as 2000BC. A Chinese bride was referred to as a peach, due to the seeming likeness between a peach and female genitalia. The winds of trade brought peaches to Greece and Persia, where they were instantly accepted. The juicy fruit was also a big hit with the Romans, who cultivated it throughout the empire. From Italy, peaches made the leap across the Atlantic, where early settlers planted them throughout the east coast. Soon they were so plentiful, local botanists though of them as native fruits.

"For a flavored Oolong, this was just right. The peach was enough to give a nice aroma without ruining the taste."
"Smooth flavor, very relaxing. I put this tea on my frequent indulging list ...."
"Very tasty flavored oolong. The peach flavor is very light and tastes like fresh peach, but it isn't sharp at all and doesn't overpower the taste of the tea itself."
