What an enticing aroma, both before and after steeping. I added a little sweetener to bring the apricot out a touch more. A keeper!
Get whisked away to a fresh apricot orchard with our Ceylon black tea, flavored with ripe apricot. Mellow, soft cup.

I love the bright fruity taste of this tea. I forget how much I like apricot which is why I love trying teas at random!
This black tea is enjoyable and not overpowering with its apricot flavor. I'm sure it's fabulous iced, but I'll have to try it that way another time. I didn't want to put the cup down long enough for it to cool.
Huge apricot appreciater, here. Yep, apricot is my aphrodisiac. The silky sweet fruit goes down smooth and easy. .I love it hot or iced. I wish this one had a bit more depth of flavor, but as is it's still a very good tea.
Delicious flavor! Really enjoyed this black tea in my pot!
This Apricot Black Tea was fantastic! The blend of rich, bold black tea and the sweet, fragrant apricot notes was perfectly balanced. The apricot flavor wasn’t overpowering but added a nice fruity touch that made each sip refreshing. It’s a great tea for both mornings and afternoons, and the aroma alone is enough to put you in a good mood. Definitely worth trying if you’re a fan of fruity teas!
I love apricots and was thrilled to see an apricot tea. Being new to Adagio tea, I couldn’t wait to try it. Nice cup of tea with a pleasant taste of apricots. I enjoy it without a sweetener, my granddaughter adds a drop of honey to hers.
This was delicious. It is good on its own but it is also a good blending tea as well.
My absolute favorite of all the black fruit teas. Delicious flavor, naturally sweet. I drink it hot with milk.
I use this tea to brew 3 quarts at a time with a Mr. Coffee tea maker. I love the flavor of the apricot!
Apricot is one of my favorite flavors. It is especially great if you mix it with the white peach.
This makes a great iced tea! My favorite summer tea. Also nice hot.
Beautiful tea! I’m a fan of fruit teas and this perfectly captures the smell of an apricot!
So delicious! Especially good with vanilla and cream! I look forward to drinking this. It’s one of the best teas I’ve ever had
first time habing a apricot tea. im impressed. thanks for making this blend adagio. i ended up icing it
mmmmmmmmmhmmmmm definitely major yummers for sure!!! one of my favorite teas from this website!!!
I use for iced tea. I make a concentrated loose tea, about 4 rounded teaspoons using a paper filter and a mason jar. Refrigerate and then dilute with ice and filtered water. Refreshing year round.
A bit lackluster for me, was hoping for a more pronounced apricot flavor, but I am juat not getting it.
This blend has a bright frutty and refreshing aroma. The taste is sweet and tangy, with a juicy and crisp flavor from the apple pieces and a soft and smooth flavor from the apricot flavor and marigold flowers. The Ceylon adds a nice balance and depth to the blend, giving it a slightly malty character. Apricot blend is an invigorating treat that will awaken your taste buds and lift your mood.
Apricot was wonderful! I love apricots and it has just the right hint of apricots.
This balances the black tea and apricot flavor well. It's not overwhelming or artificial tasting at all.
One of my favorite jam and toast combos is apricot and fresh, cream butter. I love mixing this with cream tea or it is WONDERFUL iced!
I wasn't sure how this would taste. It has an interesting flavor and subtle smell that's not unpleasant.
One of my favorites! I like to drink this tea when I make eggs and toast with apricot jelly. They obvious pair well together.
A little weakin the apricot flavor for me. Still good flavor.
I like the Apricot black tea, but I wish it had a little bit stronger apricot flavor.
We really enjoyed this tea. We wanted to try the black tea version since we had already had the green tea. We were not disappointed and have been enjoying this with regularity.
A bit underwhelming flavor-wise. Tastes pretty generic.
I absolutely love this tea. We drink it iced and hot. It has the perfect amount of caffeine if I choose to skip my coffee. Great flavour
Great flavor. Makes an excellent tea latte when mixed with frothed milk and a sweetener.
There is some good fruity/apricot flavor here, but it's pretty mild, and I might not actually guess that it's apricot if I didn't know: I might guess peach or some generic 'tropical' flavoring. This also has some of that 'dirty' flavor that peach and apricot flavored things often have. But it's not bad overall.
The tea in my sample pouch seems to have too much apricot, and it tastes a little artificial. Maybe my batch was just an odd one for getting the percentages of ingredients right. I will try adding it to one of the plain black teas and try it again. I think it would make a nice addition in smaller amounts when blended with other tastes.
Just delicious! I really love this one. The apricot flavor comes through very distinctly, and is nice and smooth.
My go to morning tea at work, it is refreshing and light. The apricot flavor compliments and works well with the black tea. Highly recommended.
I really enjoy Apricot, because it feels so good to enjoy a cup of nostalgia. My grandmother had an apricot tree, and this tea reminds me of mornings with my grandma in the summer. I like it a tad less than boiling to truly enjoy that fresh fruity taste, and it's great with a bagel in the morning.
A black tea with a nice hint of apricot. The black tea is strong. The apricot is subtle.
This had a bold Ceylon black tea base but the apricot didn't measure up and was drowned out by the Ceylon. Adding a monk fruit sweetener didn't do much to bring out the apricot either. 195 F x 3 min.
Love on subtlety fruity and elegant this tea was!! Would have more if I could
Amazing Apricot! A beautiful tea both in caff & decaf...Hot or Iced!
Opening the packet the aroma was definitely fruity. Made this one into a cold brew. The sweetness of the apricot was a nice touch to this black tea. No bitterness at all. Next time will try it hot to see if it still carries the same flavor.
I was anticipating a fruity apricot flavor to match the wonderful apricot aroma… I was disappointed that the apricot wasn’t stronger. I sweetened with honey.
This is a solid black tea with delicious apricot flavor. It also has a slightly floral finish.
CommuniTEA portion: 195 for 3 minutes. Black tea was nice but something about the apricot wasn't my favorite flavor. Fun to try it though.
This was not a bad tea - just didn’t have the stronger apricot flavour I was hoping for. I stepped at 200 for 3 min based on others feedback. No bitterness just not real strong.
The tea has a good apricot flavor to it, and the tea itself is of course great quality. I am just not a huge fan of Apricot. I got this in my CommuniTEA box. I steeped it at 185 for about 2-3 minutes.
The apricot is light, but despite that, it's got this really nice, crisp and tart citrus burst to it that makes up for any lacking flavour. Really, it's almost juicy, and blends well with the black base. Refreshing, and would probably be spectacular iced.
This was a very nice tea that had a pleasant sweetness with a bit of sugar. The black tea mixed in gave me a bit of a boost to get through the last bit of the workday.
Very lightly flavored, but the aroma was spot-on apricot for me, which I feel like is a hard aroma to pinpoint. Often it just smells like cherry or orange to me. The flavor was also accurate, but not overly powerful or artificial.
It’s actually pretty good! Did not expect that to be quite honest. The smell is amazing and the taste is somewhat similar but a little dulled down — though, it does not take from the taste AT ALL. It is very smooth without having to add any sweeteners etc. It is a taste I would love to have occasionally.
I wanted to do this iced since so many people in the chat and reviews recommended that was the way to go. Normally this means that I brew it and put it in the fridge to cool down. But, when I do that with blacks they go cloudy and bitter on me. Works fine with all other teas. I've tried several things (like letting it cool completely on the counter before going in the fridge), but nothing works for me. So I decided to cold brew by just leaving the leaves in the water overnight. Turned out pretty good. I did make sure to only use 8 oz water since I find it takes more tea to get any taste with this method. Turned out very smooth with just a hint of apricot. Tasted as part of The CommuniTea.
