Simple, delicious, just don’t overstep! It’s got a light fruity flavor with a hint of natural sweetness.

Loved the aroma when opening the pack. Not a large blackberry flavor. Over all a pleasant cup of tea. I would not purchase for myself.

I'm not getting a whole lot of identifiable flavor from this at all. There's definitely flavor, but I can't pin down what it is. It's okay, I guess, but as someone who loves actual blackberries, I'm pretty disappointed by this one.

★★☆☆☆

This tasted bitter and angry with barely a hint of blueberry. If I could've used this tea to blend into a berry smoothie it might've made it more tolerable. All in all, its not good for non black tea fans. Don't do it

Like many of Adagio's other fruit-flavored Ceylon teas, this one just barely squeaks into the drinkable category with some babying. I never steep Ceylons at 212 F anymore, because the tannins that come out at that temperature don't play nicely with much of anything, and especially not with perfume-y berry flavors like today's. With that being said, a short/cool steep is enough to get lots of blackberry tea flavor without too much icky stuff from the black tea. It still needed sweetening, but I managed to enjoy this cup after that. (3 mins @ 200 F, 2 drops EZ-Sweetz)

I really DO NOT like this tea. It’s got a very bitter almost medicinal taste and I just cannot drink it.

Loved the aroma right from the start. Blackberry was not cloying but a delicate just perfect touch

★★☆☆☆

Not enjoying the background flavour to the tea, which is vaguely berry. Not really a fam of this tea.

★★☆☆☆

The artificial berry flavor left a bad aftertaste. I would rather have either a nice plain black tea or an herbal berry tea - this was the worst of both worlds.

★★★★☆

This is good. I'd drink it again, but it doesn't knock my socks off.

★★★☆☆

Not a fan of adagio’s berry tea. Weird taste and artificial flavor, reminds me of the cough syrup.

★★★☆☆

Not sure on this tea. I thought I would love it and it can get bitter quite quickly if steeped too long

I mostly taste black tea. Theres barely a fruity flavor to round it out

★★★★☆

Like many reviews have already stated, it's more black tea than blackberry. The blackberry flavor is faint but a nice addition to the black tea. Not something I'd buy but maybe would add to a blend for a hint of berry flavor.

I would have liked the blackberry to be a little stronger for this. It's more like straight black tea with a hint of blackberry. Not bad, but not what I was expecting.

Great aroma in the bag, but changes when brewed to something...odd. Ok flavor, ut nothing super excting.

★★★☆☆

I'm generally not a fan of their black tea w/fruit flavors- the black tea tannic flavor tends to overpower the fruit, to the point where I'd steep it for less time than they recommend. This one is actually ok, though the blackberry is very subtle, more than I'd like

This tea tastes exactly like what it says it is..blackberry..would be good iced, but I am enjoying it hot.

One of my favorite flavors to use in my fandom blends. The blackberry has a fruity sweetness and it’s good just by itself too.

I used to think there is no better tea in the world than Adagio's Earl Grey. Well... I'm not so sure anymore. Adagio's Blackberry's taste seems even more satisfying. In comparison to Earl Grey, the taste of Blackberry is definitely more intense. Like Earl Grey it is an aromatic tea, but Blackberry feels stronger. If you like strong, invigorating teas (as well as blackberries in all forms and shapes) – you must try this one. It is a bliss!

★★★★★

I love this tea!!! I live in the PNW and blackberry is everywhere. This tea is the closest I've ever had to tasting what I make by harvesting the leaves from the vines at home.

This blackberry tea is one of my favorites. It has a great flavor.

★☆☆☆☆

This was just awful. I mixed it with just regular black tea to cut the sweetness and it was still terrible. I ended up throwing it out.

★★★★☆

Good but it's not as fruity/flavorful as it could be

★★★★★

This came in the berries teas box this summer. I loved it so much I had to buy more. Like most of the other black teas with fruit I have tried from Adagio, this one has just enough fruit flavor to give it a punch, but there is no doubt it is a black tea.

This ended up being better than I expected .. I mix it with the Lemon Soleil for a fun flavor.

★★★★★

Wonderful flavor. Brew it in my VelociTea maker from Adagio Tea. So easy, then make iced tea.

Simple and elegant. A great tea filled with tons of blackberry flavor. Was not disappointing at all! It s great as a desert type tea, after meal tea, or for a random tea time!

★★★★★

Rich blackberry flavor. I didn't thjnk I was going to like it, but instead I love it.

★★★★★

This tea is fantastic. I wish the blackberry taste was a bit stronger, but you can still tell it is there. I love a good blackberry tea. I can't wait to try this as an iced tea.

Brewed this as Iced Tea, and the blackberry was just a bit lost, but it was still a good tea.

★★★★★

I love this blend of tea, it is perfect for the summer time.

Amazing flavor! Great all around fruity tea. Def buying more.

★★★★★

Yum! Really nice flavor and robust hearty black tea backdrop. Love!

★★★★★

A very long time ago Lipton used to back a blackberry tea. I grew up on that tea then they stopped making. I have been looking for YEARS for a full flavored blackberry black tea that didn't have other flavors with it (vanilla, jasmine, etc). This tea is the most wonderful tea and I will keep it stocked in my pantry for sure.

★★★☆☆

This needs more blackberry flavor. It isn t bad, but I prefer either the Raspberry or the Forest Berries. Either of those has a great berry flavor.

This tea definitely has a strong blackberry taste. It can be pretty bitter if you steep it too long, but with a little sugar added it is nice. Blending it with the vanilla and/or cream flavored black teas also really rounds out the flavor. My favorite way to make it though it cold brewed in the fridge overnight. It takes a lot of leaves, but the result is so smooth and refreshing and it almost has a sweet cream undertone to it. Will likely become a summer time staple for me.

This is my very favorite. The best tasting hot tea that I have ever had. I go through it way to quickly.

Very nice, crisp, fruity taste. A little jammy and very delicious.

Always a fan of blackberry tea since I started purchasing years ago. You can taste the blackberry and can mix with other flavors.

★★☆☆☆

Too bitter for my liking. I followed directions as well. Glad I just got the sample size. I’m sad because I love blackberry.

★★★★☆

It makes a very good milk tea but the blackberry is not as strong as expected. Still good, though.

★★☆☆☆

I tried the blackberry hot this morning. There is something about the flavor of their berry teas that doesn’t sit well with me. The blackberry seemed like it had an old taste to it. Not a fan.

3 min steep · 212°F

★★★☆☆

it's best mixed with other teas

★★★★★

still good.I like this very much.The aroma reminds me of blackberry picking when I was a child, and the wonderful blackberry jelly my Mama made for our biscuits.If you like fruit flavored teas give this one a try.

★★★☆☆

It's a sweeter flavored tea but there's a bit of a tartness to it at the end. Not sure if its because of the honey or its just the tea.

Flavorful. Full taste if fruit and tea with body.

★★★★★

Good flavored tea and I will be buying more of it in the near future

★★★★★

This is THE BEST iced tea I’ve ever tried. I brew it by the quart, using 3 very full teaspoons per quart. A nice fruity flavor that isn’t at all overpowering. I love it hot, too.

This is a good summery, fruity black tea! Refreshing, and has a nice blackberry flavor.
