This tea is divine! Wonderful taste and smells delicious!
Solid decaf tea with a good cream flavor. Mixes well with other teas to add some extra depth to the flavor.
Adagio’s Decaf Cream tea is fantastic! It has a smooth, rich flavor with a hint of vanilla that makes it incredibly comforting without being too sweet. The decaf base is perfect for an evening cup, allowing you to unwind with a cozy, creamy tea. Highly recommended if you’re looking for a caffeine-free treat!
Wonderful for a chilly fall day. Strong black tea flavor softened and rounded out with subtle vanilla.
I have a cup of tea every afternoon and this Decaf Cream is an easy, light choice. I have it with some milk and I can't wait to share it with my 10 year old granddaughter, who is a young tea-drinker.
I was so excited when I saw they had a Decaf Cream! If you are looking for a decaf version of the Cream Tea, this is not that. I love the regular Cream tea...it's one of the teas I drink on a regular basis. But then I saw they added cornflowers. I decided to reserve judgement and give it a try. This does not taste like the regular cream tea. Don't get me wrong, it's still really good! I actually quite like it. It has a great finish and (sorry this sounds pretentious) a soft mouth feel. I would have given this tea 5 stars, but given it is called 'Decaf Cream,' I would expect it to be a decaf version of the Cream tea. All that said, I really love this tea, and I will definitely get it again.
Less bitter than non decaf version, flavor is super balanced
Lovely, creamy taste. And a plus because it’s decaffeinated. Delicious to drink on a cool, rainy mid-west morning.
I blended this with the decaf vanilla tea for an uncaffeinated after-dinner treat, and it did not disappoint! A little half and half added to the creaminess of the experience, but you could absolutely forego the cream and just enjoy as is.
A great tea on its own hot, but blend with a desert tea and it becomes excellent. Best yet, blend with a fruit tea and make it iced a you have a delicious summer treat. My favorite is peaches and cream!
This is a great blend, either alone or mixed with other teas. As a bonus I find this brews great as a single cup (1 heaping tsp) in my keurig reusable pod
I love this tea by itself. But also enjoy it mixed with berry flavored teas. The flavor is awesome!
This is a nice tea for the afternoon or evening being caffeine-free. I used 195 F water x 3 min and added honey for black tea and 1 tsp cream.
Lovely for afternoon tea when caffeine isn't what your body needs. The name says 'cream' but honestly the flavor for me is strongly vanilla. Very nice, just stronger than I'd anticipated.
Mild tea, excellent flavor. I also mix with other flavors for an even more delicious tea experience.
I like this as a nice basic black tea. I enjoy it mixed 50/50 with the Decaf Earl Grey to add another dimension of flavor.
Because this is a delicious decaf, I have a cup nearly every evening. The creme flavor is natural, which is very appealing to me, too. It is perfect every time I steep a cup.
I feared this tea would be bland--not at all. It's smooth--delicate yet satisfying with a splash of unsweetened soy milk.
A new black decaf favorite. A nice vanilla creme flavor without dairy. Added a 1/4 teaspoon sugar.
I needed to find more decaf tea so tried a sample of this. It is delicious, creamy, and needs no sweetener. I plan to order more.
This is just the perfect evening tea! I'm inclined to black tea, but most of my blends are caffeinated. I got this in a sample and immediately fell in love to purchase more! It needs no additives and is just a sweet, soothing blend.
Update: Steeped for 90 sec at a lower temperature to prevent bitterness and astringency. Much better, I sipped it straight.

Creamy almost caramel scented. Not a cream flavor so much as a slight creaminess in texture, along with some astringency. It was better after I added milk and sugar, but just not for me.
Nice creamy buttery flavor. Nice way to end the day. Loved this still so good
This decaf is gentle and nearly sweet. Its scent is calming. I have used it to make a half caf with other black teas, but honestly, it’s really quite nice on its own.
A very Delicious smooth creamy tea. No sweetener is needed. Wonderful creamy aroma and flavor. I added a little frothed cream. Yum. . A very relaxing cup of tea
This tea smelled amazing and tasted great. I added sweetened milk.
So creamy and delicious! It was the perfect tea to unwind with before bed.
I keep this tea in my tea cupboard all the time to blend with other teas. I love the creaminess it brings to black teas.
For a decaf tea, it was quite nice. The 'cream' flavor comes across as a tad fake, but with some milk and sugar it blends nicely and makes a nice change of pace.
I love the flavor, especially for blending, but if I had to choose between this blend and the regular caffeinated, I choose caffeinated.
Stil tasty. :)
UPDATE: drank this one weeks ago because I knew I loved it. Still good.
delicious. a little artificial but I didn't mind. love that it's decaf.
A delicious smooth cuppa tea. Love all of Adagio's decaf teas. I think this is my favorite though. Nice iced in the summer and great hot for the cooler days. Super in tea blends.
By far my favorite and go to decaf tea. It’s hard to describe the flavor but it does have a hint of sweet cream taste but it’s very subtle and the tea is very smooth. It’s perfect for a light dessert after dinner without the calories.
mmmmmm, what a lovely surprise blend. I wasn't sure what to expect but there is this underlying creaminess to the flavors that works wonderfully.
take it or leave it take it or leave it take it or leave it take it or leave it take it or leave it
I used to buy the decaf vanilla, I recommend this one better. I absolutely love the smooth flavor of this tea, the cream and the cornflower work really well with the black tea to make soften the flavor.
I really like the Decaf Cream tea as a base for other flavored teas. I like to mix it with the decaf strawberry tea or a lemon tea that reminds me of a strawberry cream or lemon cream desert. The flavor of this tea tastes very much like Tahitian vanilla to me, which is very distinctive. I don't care for it in baked goods, but it is nice in this tea.
As someone who cannot drink caffeinated beverages before bed, this tea was perfect. It was creamy, and paired really well with honey and lactose free milk. Highly recommend!
I bought a bigger bag of this because I enjoy having this sweetened with milk pretty frequently. The cream flavor is pretty authentic and tasty.
Pleasantly surprised by this tea. Provides an alternative to Irish breakfast tea.
Oh this one is a perfect addition to other black teas to give it that extra bit of fullness and creaminess.
Delicious on its own and as a mix with other teas!
It’s ok. I ordered it because I liked it last month in communitea. The bag I got seems to have more flavoring, a little overpowering. I wish there were more decaf teas in other varieties (oolong, green, Darjeeling).
This was a bit of a disappointment as I thought the 'creme' flavor came from the white cornflowers. Unfortunately since there's 'flavor' added it tastes too artificial for me.
This tea tastes amazing and I love that I don't have to worry about my caffiene intake. A new favorite!
Another surprisingly sweet tea that needs no additional sweetener.
~June 2023: I still really like this tea! It’s difficult to believe it’s lower in caffeine due to the lovely strong black tea flavor. Tasting cream notes on the end. I’ve added this to my wish list and upgraded it from good to great!
~This tea actually tastes like cream! It’s really smooth and I’m thankful for a lower caffeinated tea this morning. I think this tea could easily be blended with multiple other teas
This is one I like to have when I'm craving black tea at night but don't need the caffeine. The creamy flavor is outstanding. This one is a must have.
A delightfully smooth and creamy tea. It being decaffeinated is a bonus as I can sip it at night before bed. Very soothing!
I'm very delighted by this tea. I brewed ~ 8 oz 195 x 3 minutes added sweetener and poured over ice. Very lovely smooth flavor. Re-steeped the leaves in 8oz 195 x 5 minutes. I added sweetener and half/half and drank warm. I like it both ways but prefer it warm tonight.
