★★★★★

Lovely floral tea with a hint of bergamot. Very nice Earl Grey type tea

★★☆☆☆

This was a 50% off sample. The combo of ingredients looked good, except for the caramel flavoring, which I don't like. Unfortunately, the quality of this black tea wasn't great, and its bitterness was too much for me. I tried brewing at 190 instead of 212 degrees, and I still found it overwhelmingly bitter. Other than bitter, I could taste mostly pomegranate & a slight hint of bergamot.

To be honest it’s rather dull. I expected something a little sweet with its scent and flavor combination, but it’s just got nothing.

This tea is definitely one of my favorites! Not only does it smell amazing, but it also tastes great. It reminds me of spring and works wonders if you need to calm down.

A perfect springtime tea, with the black tea caffeine content to start the day. This is one of my favorites!

I wanted to be excited about this but I am just not. I don't pick up much of the nuanced tastes in it. I love Earl Grey and esp Bella Luna. I get none of the bergamot in this. I read it has caramel too but I don't get that either. A nice flavored but indistinct tea for me.

Delicious blend of black and oolong teas! Very subtle bergamot flavor. This one is like an Earl Grey tea but with a twist!

A tad more floral than I prefer but a nice take on an East Grey tea if you are looking for a change of pace.

I still really like this one. Blends nicely - no one flavor sticks out, and even though I'd never have thought to combine this set of flavors, it works really nicely. Even if you're not a bergamot lover, you might still enjoy this tea. Stands up to whole milk

This flavor was totally unexpected! It caught my attention with the mention of pomegranate. But the flavor is so much more than that. This is a wonderful, naturally sweet mixture that I will definitely purchase again.

Really nice and bright flavor with a full bodied mouth feel. This was a pleasant surprise of a tea. It definitely makes me feel like I am at a little cafe enjoying a chocolate croissant on a quiet spring day as a gentle breeze blows

I've always been a fan of Earl Grey and April in Paris doesn't dissapoint. Lovely blend--smooth, lightly sweet, and delicious with floral notes! I've so far only had it plain, but I can see it being delicious as a latte.

A lovely vanilla and caramel smoothed bergamot tea deliciously accented with slightly sweet and sassy pomegranate fruit. Pomegranate with it's red edible seeds has a sweet citrusy leaning flavor with tart bursts of cranberry/cherry like taste. It compliments orange flavored bergamot well. The black tea base with friendly oolong in the mix, offers just enough tannins with a little astringency to be a satisfying and smooth anchor to the vanilla warmed and soft caramel flavored bergamot/ pomegranate taste.

My CT packet had 3 grams of a beautifully tempered bergamot scented tea with lots of dark tea leaves and wavy red cornflowers. Brewed 10 oz. at 212*F for 3 min. The medium brown liquor was especially delicious with a sweetener add of agave which enhanced the fruit flavor and elevated the caramel and vanilla ones too. A resteep of 7 oz. was tasty also. This is a terrific version of Earl Grey tea and I loved the red cornflowers in the loose tea. They reminded me of little red scarves, maybe something the French would wear. The scarves they wear always seem so beautiful and to perfectly compliment their outfit. Vivia Paris in April!

Fruity Earl grey. I enjoyed the subtle pomegranate and hints if rose. The bergamot is not overpowering…a well balanced and smooth cup of tea. . I enjoyed without sweetener and equally with a little honey.

What a delicious EG the caramel & vanilla really transform this tea into something special.

This one is a very good blend of pomegranate and EG flavors with extra vanilla and caramel. I must admit, I was expecting rose because of the red cornflowers, so I was pleased to be wrong (rose is usually not my favorite floral). This one benefited from a bit of monkfruit sweetner and was enjoyed hot. Steeped at 195 degrees for three minutes.

Hands down, one of my favorite Adagio teas. I agree with Sue Manos, it's a great take on Harney & Son's Paris tea (essentially, pomegranate replaces blackcurrant); I like it just as much. The blend of bergamot, pomegranate, caramel, and vanilla creates a layered taste experience. It has a sweetness to it that's not too sweet, at least for me. Given that and its specific flavors, for me, this is a special, now and then tea. 3 min. at 212°F

When I opened my CommuniTEA packet, I was met with aromas of caramel and vanilla with a dash of pomegranate. I steeped the tea for 3 minutes. The bergamot flavors blend beautifully with the vanilla and caramel flavors. I didn't detect any pomegranate, but it was still a lovely tea.

This tea is magnificent! The black tea provides a perfect backdrop. The brightness of the pomegranate creates depth. The vanilla adds texture to the masterpiece in the form of creaminess and balance. This tea is a beautiful piece of art!!!

I'm a huge fan of Earl Grey so this was a great cup to me! The bergamot is more subtle in this blend and goes very nice with the sweet caramel flavor. The pomegranate is more pronounced than I expected and it really ties everything together so you get a forward fruity note with a sweet undertone with an even lighter bergamot ending.

update: still one of the best teas adagio has to offer. Really unique and great.

One of the best! Such a unique blend I think the bergamot and vanilla together really do it for me. It really feels like a sophisticated spring day

Mild floral, vanilla and fruity aromas were noted in my communiTEA packet.

I had 3.28 grams of ingredients, enough for a medium strength 13 ounce steep. I steeped at 200°F for 3 minutes to prevent any black tea bitterness.

When hot, no vanilla, pomegranate or caramel flavors were noted. Bergamot flavors were mild. No bitterness was noted. I added ⅜ teaspoon of sugar to help bring out flavors and add a little sweetness.

When warm, vanilla, pomegranate and caramel flavors never surfaced. Bergamot flavors were moderate. A mild and smooth mouthfeel was noted. Astringency was moderate to strong at finish.

This was not a very flavorful blend. Astringency distracted from my enjoyment. (3 mins @ 200ºF, ⅜ tsp sugar)

CommuniTEA Sample: I'm not the biggest EG fan in the world, however, this was a nice twist on a traditional EG. The added sweetness and vanilla notes take this to another level. A very enjoyable sip!

This is an amazing tea that absolutely tastes like a certain French tea that's almost impossible to get in the US. It hits the spot for an afternoon tea that I love to have with a Madeleine cookie or 10.

Lovely aroma as well as visually appealing. Perfect cup of tea for afternoon sipping. Fruity and floral Earl Grey - with subtler touch to the bergamot (which is perfect for me as I do not enjoy the strong presence of it in traditional Earl Greys). All the flavors blend nicely. And I enjoyed the caramel with some additional sweetener.

such a lovely pick me up. I like to add a little milk to enhance the creamy flavor of the tea. Perfect in the afternoon.

I got this to compare with Harney & Son's Paris. And they're pretty similar, but I enjoy this one more. It's got a creamy vanilla that balances well with the acidity of the pomegranate notes.

The pomegranate goes so well in this earl grey variation! I got it as a sample but I'm going to get 3oz in my next order!

Had potential but after brewing and cooling I discovered no flavor whatsoever, what went wrong Adagio?!

★★★★★

Love this interpretation of Harney's Paris tea. The caramel notes enhance the bergamot and pomegranate adds a nice fruity note.

One of my favorites! I drink this one a little less now that I'm pregnant and trying to avoid caffeine but it is delicious and one that when we have company over is frequently requested!

Not sure how to describe it, but it tastes like pleasantly rainy spring day?? Every time I measure out leaves I expect it to be very floral and then am surprised when it is very not.

strong pomegranate flavor in the bag that turned more vanilla when it steeped. a little bitter on its own, I'll probably add a little sugar next time

I was really excited to try this tea, but it fell a little flat. Somehow, the only detectable flavor for me is chocolate...despite this not being a chocolate tea. Maybe I would like it better if the pomegranate was a more forward flavor? But alas, how it is in my cup is just not the tea for me.

A nice aromatic black tea, but nothing else of note. Tasty! The pink corn flowers make a nice touch.

This is delicious! Sort of reminiscent of earl grey but not nearly as strong a flavor with a nice vanilla addition. Holds up well for another steeping
