Very nice, at those times when I want a darker roasted Tea but don't want the caffeine to tag along this one was excellent with a splash of oat milk perfection!
Classic decaf breakfast black tea that offers a rich, fruity aroma, medium body, with a well-balanced cup.

One of the best decaf breakfast teas I have found. Maybe not quite as bold as original breakfast blend, but that's expected with a decaf. My new go-to decaf black tea.
We were so excited to see this offered! Perhaps our expectations were too high. We had been hoping for an Irish Breakfast/English Breakfast flavor, but instead found this rather non-descript and a bit “flabby” in the mouthfeel.
Sometimes, a tea-totaller like myself craves a good, strong black tea, even if it's late at night. This one just hit the spot with me! It satisfies that craving, but still allows me to get to sleep. I've tried lots of decaf black teas, but rarely have I found one that truly tastes good. This one will now be up there with my all-time favorite decaf Earl Grey.
Since going caffeine free this has been my go to morning cup of tea. I enjoy it with milk and a little honey
I like this one more than the decaf ceylon sonata. It's stronger with less flavor loss due to the decaffeination process. The ceylon sonata is very soft, where this is closer to what I would say a simple black tea that hasn't gone through the decaf process would be.
After needing to cut down significantly on caffeine, I was so excited to find loose black tea that is decaf. This is a nice breakfast tea, and since I'm able to brew loose tea that's decaf, it feels like a normal cup of breakfast tea!
I purchased this mostly for my husband who can't have caffeine, but I do enjoy having the option for a nice, unaltered black tea in the evenings. This blend yields a malty, slightly smoky (Don't balk - it's not lapsang by any means) cup that goes as well with a bowl of oatmeal as it does with a sweet treat.
Oh, and my husband's happy with it, too, as far as I can tell.
Love this! Trying to cut down on the caffeine in my old age lol. This is a great later-in-the-day-I-need-a-tea now alternative!!! Yum!
This tea exceeded my expectations. I bought it hoping it would hold up to a little half-and-half, and it absolutely does.
The flavor leans slightly more sweet and floral than malty. Without milk or cream, it would be too astringent for my tastes, but with it, it's delightful. I'm so happy to have a decaf breakfast tea option. This is exactly what I needed for my tea cabinet.
I orders this to decrease my afternoon caffeine levels and I hope it tastes like a regular breakfast blend.
I appreciate that there's an unflavored decaf black tea beyond Ceylon. However, I do not enjoy the taste of this one. Nonetheless, I bet it could work in select home blends. I haven't experimented with it much thus far. I do try to get green and white teas in my day though.
Good substitute when I had heartburn going on but still needed my morning cup of tea ! I even sometimes used it 1/2 and 1/2 with caffeinated to be gentler on the system .
This is an acceptable decaf breakfast tea that I will mostly drink in the evening. I found it more astringent than I like, but I appreciate having the option for a plain, black, decaf tea.
Very nice decaf breakfast tea. The black tea base has a sweet note to it and no bitter nuance to it. I like this plain, with a bit of stevia or as a latte. Nice versatile, plain black tea and a big plus that it's also decaf! :)
An absolute classic for when i'm wanting just a standard cup of tea without the caffeine late at night. Perfect with milk or sugar
Second cup for 5 min @ 212 F, with two grams of crystal rock sugar and a splash of milk. Lovely black tea that scratches an itch for me. If I want to be productive and feel like I have caffeine without throwing off my sleep, definitely going for a cup of this! It’s fruity and a little earthy with a smooth and slightly sticky mouthfeel, all on top of the classic black tea flavor you would want. Basically no bitterness!
Not great, but not especially bad. It's just alright. The flavor is kind of rough and lacks depth, but for a plain decaf tea, it's surprisingly drinkable.
Absolutely on point and what your looking for in an English breakfast tea. Not to bitter and the decaf does not ruin the flavor profile at all!
It is great to have a bolder flavor in a decaf black tea. It would hold up to adding milk without becoming bland.
I was hoping for more flavor out of this decaf blend. A good decaf is hard to find and Adagio has quite a few -but I was hoping this would be a boulder blend than the decaf ceiling on, and honestly tasting them side by side there's not a big enough difference between the two of them for me. It's fine, but I'll stick to other Adagio decafs in the future instead
This Decaf Brkft black tea is amazing and a special Pluss...great hot and cold brew overnight.
This is nice for when you're craving breakfast tea or a black tea later in the day. It's smooth, rich and tastes similar to your classic English Breakfast tea.
