★★★★☆

Good, but not nearly as much fruit flavor as some of the other varieties. Definitely prefer the peach.

★★★☆☆

Aroma is artificial smelling. Flavor is not what I expected.

Just a nice, relaxing tea with a touch of Apricot taste in this blend. I have only had this hot, but I'm sure chilled it would be just as pleasant. I do believe I like this better than the peach tea (which is also very pleasant).

Delicious, strong apricot flavor. Almost floral. I have added this to custom blends as well, it can sometimes overpower other flavors so use sparingly.

Very enjoyable, light and delicious. Not fruity, just a pleasant Flavor

★★★☆☆

Not as crazy about this as I thought I would be (I love apricot). I think it has more to do with the fact that as I continue trying the many different types of tea, I am liking green tea much more than black tea. I find that the black teas are just too astringent and one-dimensional for my palate. I much more prefer the subtle, multilayered gentleness to the bite of black tea. Just personal preference, I guess!

Mild flavors and not a lot of Apricot taste. Maybe better served cold.

My new favorite! I was shocked by how good this is. The apricot flavor is strong and totally delicious, making for a great warm-weather iced tea. Love love love.

UPDATE: I've come to realize this particular tea is very prone to going cloudy and bitter. Not sure what I'm doing wrong, but I think it's the tea itself. When it brews well, this tea is the best, but unfortunately that only happens maybe 40% of the time.

Tasty, don't oversteep!! I like a light tea so I only steep for about a minute and it comes out to be like a light brown and I prefer the taste. I prefer green tea so this gives me the extra caffeine I need.

★★★★☆

This is a pleasant tea to drink for a change of pace from my go to plain black teas.

★★★★★

There are certain teas that have a tobacco-y taste and smell. I've never been a smoker but I like the smell of some tobacco. This tea is one of those. I love it both iced and hot.

★☆☆☆☆

This was my first Adagio tea. I don't like it at all, it smells like cheap potpourri and tastes like icky, fake Bigelow 'fruit' tea or similar. I somehow missed that 'natural apricot flavor' was in the ingredients list. I thought I was buying just black tea and apricots. I won't make that mistake again.

★★★★★

This tea is phenomenal. I really like the balance of acidic tea with sweet apricot. It's a wonderful morning pick-me-up. Will definitely purchase again!

So very fruity! A nice tea cold or hot! This will be wonderful as a cocktail.

The taste was good but didn't really get the flavor of the apricot.

★★★★★

Great apricot flavored black tea. Add a little honey for sweetness.

★★★★★

This is the tea that started me on my Adagio addiction. I cannot live without it. The fruit flavor is clear but not overwhelming. The addition of apricot makes for a very smooth cup of tea.

Very good and refreshing. Works great iced and I’m sure hot too.

★★★★★

Such a perfect morning pick me up. Wakes me up with my favorite fruit flavor

Nice fruity smell. Not a super strong fruit flavor. Good black tea.

★★★★★

I really enjoy this one hot, with just a touch of sweetener.

★★★★☆

I switch up this with English Breakfast for my morning get-up-and-go when I just want a little more fruity flavor with my toast. I have already gone through most of my order in a week, and I know I shall have to order a larger size next time.

★★★★★

Really liked this tea. Very fruity and nicely aromatic

★★★★★

Not too overpowering with the fruit, just a nice little spoke to balance out the tea

This tea is delightful! It has a subtle, fresh apricot taste that I really enjoy. This is one of my favorite teas to drink year round. I actually steep it for 3.5 minutes to get a little deeper flavor.

★★★☆☆

A little overwhelming, flavor wise. I could use the apricot toned down a bit. I'll mix it with Scottish breakfast next time.

The fruit flavor bursts thru with this black tea. I mean addition to my collection

When you don't want something too fruity this is it. The light flavor it just right. One of my favorite teas

★★★★☆

Nice apricot flavor, nice with a little sweetening.

★★★★★

Yummy. Mild Apricot flavor. Add sweetener such as honey to enhance the flavor

★★☆☆☆

Very astringent. It’s not bad hot and sweetened, but not something I’ll make again.

★★★★★

I'm not always into fruity flavors, but this works very well

★★★★☆

I certainly don't object to drinking this tea, but I think the apricot flavor gets a little lost in the boldness of the black tea. I much prefer Adagio's apricot green tea, where the nuances of the apricot flavor have an opportunity to shine. For a black tea with a similar fruity bent, I don't think you can beat Adagio's peach tea.

4 min steep · 212°F

★★★★☆

The apricot aroma is more pronounced than the flavor, but that’s not a bad thing. Although the flavor is subtle, it’s a cheerful tea for a morning or afternoon pick me up.

5 min steep · 212°F

★★★★★

Light apricot flavor, though there is something astringent in it as well though it doesn't take away from the mild fruity flavor. Nothing particularly exciting about this tea, it's just as expected. I do like this better than the peach, it's lighter and more refreshing in flavor, and not as artificial. Despite the slight astringent aftertaste, this is still a rather good black tea!! I followed brewing instruction, and had this hot, and let it cool, and had it cooler as well. Much better hot, as the flavor comes out more. As it cools, the apricot flavor tones down too much, and it kind of just tastes like a plain black tea.

Pretty good flavor if you like fruity teas. Don't over-steep it or it turns grassy.

I love a good black tea with stone fruit, and this tea is no exception. I got this as a gift for my parents, and we all love it.

Delicious tea. Nice rounded flavor and very enjoyable.

Almost as good as the Peach Teas. It has a very mild APRICOT FLAVOR. I
ENJOY IT HOT OR COLD AND DEFIFINTELY MIXED WITH PEACH TEA

★★★★☆

Rather nice. Stronger apricot on the second go 'round, but definitely present both times.

Really good for a change of pace. Have leaned more towards plain black teas, but love the occasional flavored black tea.
