Black Cherry Customer Reviews

This is a hard one to review, as I have recently come to realize cherry is not my favorite flavor. My husband liked it, so I'm certain it's subjective. I tried blending it with almond and cream tea, which did help, but overall I don't think cherry is the right flavor for me. Maybe I'm ruined by all the artificial cherry flavored medicine I had to take as a kid, which this sort of reminded me of. Maybe the addition of rose petals made it too bitter, though I love rose tea. Either way, it's just a preference. If you like or love cherries, you might like this one. If you're on the fence about cherries, I'd go with a sample size to test it out first, or stick to one of the many other delicious flavors on this site.

So yummy! I love black tea and Adagio has great ones!

This is one of my all time favorite iced teas. But it is also a fine tea served hot, almost like a brandy. I have enjoyed this for years. Great to mix with other flavors

It was nice. The cherry tasted a bit artificial but still good. Did not taste like cough syrup like some have claimed. I had this HOT with dinner. I cant wait to try as an iced tea.

I tried to like it, but it just wasn't for me. Its not horrible, but its a very strong cherry flavor and aroma. I prefer something a tad more subtle.

This is a really great tasting tea. I'm a big iced tea drinker and this mix really refreshing.

Love this! The tartness is just right. Finally a cherry tea that is pleasantly tasting.

This tea is fine, but to my palate it ended up a little to cough-syrup-y.

Was not a fan of this tea. It had a fake cherry taste in my opinion.

Just ok. Not as flavorful as I had hoped it would be.

Love this tea! So sweet and delicious, especially iced!

Tasty and a great pick-me-up for lunch. Husband likes the way the house smells after I make it.

PERFECT TEA FOR THE SUMMER ! Very unusual taste! I smell roses?)))))

Milder form of cherry flavors. I like it even though I usually prefer stronger teas. Oddly, I like this a lot as an accompaniment to sushi. Go figure, but it works !

Loved this one, just the right amount of cherry to enhance but not overpower.

Taste of the Black tea was way too strong! That's all I could taste and it left a metallic aftertaste

Nice cherry flavour. Good on its own and for blending.

I m mostly using this one to blend with others but I like the flavor of it better than the herbal cherry. It s especially good with chocolate/chocolate chip.

I was surprised by how much I liked this blend! I worried it might have been too sweet, but the rose petals are a great counter to the cherry flavor.

the cherry flavor is a bit lost on me in this one as the rose petals overpower it

Taste and smells like cough syrup. Really disappointed with this one. Maybe if I pair it with vanilla it could be better? Will update soon.

I was not sure how I was going to like this, but I love it! I mixed it with coconut and it was the way to go!

This surprised me and was better than i was expecting. The cherry flavor was dry, not tart or sweet. Very satisfying

Had this while visiting a friend, fell in love with it immediately. Wonderful flavor.

This is a good tea. I tend to not let it steep too long because it gets bitter. But I do love it!

I really love this flavor. The cherry comes through nicely. I like to blend this with vanilla, cream, or almond.

After all my failed attempts with plain flavored tea (no mixes with other teas) I decided to start pairing them with herbal teas and pretty much any other tea I had. Paired this one with Dewy Cherry and it tasted great! Only downside is that no matter how I make these flavored teas, it always has some sort of bitter black tea flavor to it, I literally steeped a plain bag of this one for less than 60 seconds, I tried it hot and it was already bitter! Im sure these will taste great if I can ever make a good batch...

Smells wonderful! Sweet cherry flavor without being overly sweet.

In the bag, this smelled like cherry candy (think starbursts) and good black tea. In the cup, it was less of an intense flavor and more of a hint, but slightly sweet and sour and not at all cough-syrupy. I may be biased because I love cherry flavor, but I liked it

After my 2nd cup of this, I threw the remainder of the loose tea away. Yuck.

Absolutely fantastic tea. Nice cherry flavor, smooth taste with no after taste.

Pretty much exactly as described. Very good warm, not as good iced, but excellent on a cold day.

who can resist eating cherries but in a black it is also awesome

As much as a love a good cherry-flavored product, this one ultimately reminded me of cold medicine.

A nice black tea with that hint of cherry flavor.

Pleasant cherry flavor, also with mild notes of rose.

Good black tea. The cherry scent is strong but once brewed it is more mellow.

Good taste, but ve-e-e-ery light smell of cherry.

This is a pretty good tea but it is a bit artificial. This mixes really well with chocolate chip black tea!

Mixed it with a bit of the almond tea that I received free in the shipment and went through a whole lot myself. Iced or warm this is sweet bliss and spring brewed to enjoy.

Honestly, the first words out of my mouth after taking a sip of this were, 'Oh my, that is heaven!' This is so perfectly cherry, there are no words. This will be magnificent over ice once spring arrives. Just the smell alone is to die for - I almost want to put it into a sachet. Amazing!

I usually enjoy cherry flavored candies, popsicles and things like that but this is even better than I expected. The cherry flavor is bold and sweet without coming of as cough syrupy or anything like that. Delicious.

Very pleasant smell and smooth flavor. It is particularly good when mixed with chocolate chip tea.

Perfectly fruity and amazing. I love it lightly sweeted.

This doesn't have the fruity cherry taste I was expecting.

roses overpower the cherry flavor, not my favorite

The cherry flavor was less sweet than I thought it would be. Without sugar, it’s bitter but the cherry flavor can still be tasted. And with the sugar it’s still less sweet than I had thought it would be.

I expected it to be more fruity, but there is Dewy Cherry, so maybe that's the tea that I should get for myself.

Delicious! I love this tea. Definitely will be ordering more.

fruity and sweet, yet rich as it is a black tea and not herbal.

Cherry tea is typically my favorite however for whatever reason I was not a fan of this one. It really bummed me out because I was most excited about this!
