Ceylon black tea with fresh blueberry flavor. Highly aromatic, slightly sweet, rounded texture. Perfect hot or iced!

This really doesn't taste like blueberry at all & this tea has some bitterness to it.
Absolutely delicious. Good blueberry flavor. And while it was good plain, I added a teaspoon of honey and it was heavenly. I will be buying more of this one in the future!
This is a nice fruity black tea. It has just a hint of blueberry.
This really doesn't taste like blueberry at all, and it has some bitterness to it. Maybe it's better with the dried blueberries in; my sample packet had zero dried blueberries at all.
I love this, and it does not taste artificial, like I was afraid it might. It's fantastic iced for the summer.
I used this for iced tea. It was good. It wasn t *my* favorite ever. I didn t think the blueberry flavor came through really well, but I m not sure if there s a good, natural way to do that.
A good aroma. Not really tasting much of the blueberry, but the taste is still good.
I love love love the smell of this tea!!! Tastes great too! 10/10 would reccomend
This tea smells strongly like blueberry but I only get a bit of a sweet berry flavor after brewing for 7 minutes in hot water. It tastes better iced. I also like to blend with chocolate or Assam black tea and other black teas for a more unique flavor. I might order this again.
Beautiful blueberry taste — so good with milk or cream.
Coldbrewed and vey refreshing in the 100 degree heat today. The blueberry flavor was really crisp.
I enjoyed this one iced the best. The blueberry flavor is very subtle but I still like it. I'd prefer a tad more blueberry though.
Really tasty and blueberry flavored when cold brewed, as the Ceylons tend to be. Delicious!
I was very excited about the blueberry, but following the time and temp reccomendations made for a bitter cup of tea.
Delicious cylon tea with a strong suggestion of blueberries in flavor, and the dry, papery flavor from the raspberry leaves. I think my sample missed a few of the components but I enjoyed it regardless, with a heavy splash of brown sugar oatmilk creamer and some mixed berry wafer cookies. Would have enjoyed it mixed with green tea and iced with slices of orange.
It definitely had the Berry taste. However, in tea, that always tastes astringent and sour to me.
There was a hint of Blueberry if I thought of them in the perfume of the tea. Other than that, there was no Blueberry. I put rock sugar in but it did nothing to save it
This was an okay if bland tea, mine lacked a bit in blueberry flavor. (3 mins @ 200°F)
My CommuniTEA packet didn't have any blueberries in it, but it was not short on blueberry flavor! I steeped at a lower temp to avoid bitterness, and then sweetened with a little sugar. Tea was good both hot and cold. I think this would be fabulous blended with vanilla or cream tea.
CommuniTEA review: I found this to be ok...meh! Maybe it's just the ceylon for me. I find that it's bitter...no matter how I steep. There are other Adagio blueberry teas that are so much better in my opinion.
Fresh blueberry aromas escaped from the packet, leaving me anticipating this berry-packed tea. Steeping at 212°F for 3 minutes created a nice dark auburn-like shade of burnt orange tea.
Fruity blueberries lightly accented the brisk Ceylon tea in a playful way. Some bold black tea tannins and astringency were present yet mild enough when compared with some other blueberry black teas I've tried before. Light blueberry flavors were still detectable in each sip and were not overpowered by the stronger black tea flavors. Thanks to the shorter steep time and the higher quality of Adagio's loose leaf Ceylon tea, black tea bitterness was kept in balance.
Blueberry is definitely a crowd favorite in our home, and this blend was especially tasty. It paired perfectly with some ripe blueberries that we had on hand. This is a really great blueberry blend!
The blueberry is subtle on its own, adding a faint tart and floral flavor to the black tea. I throw cream in most teas, and this is no exception: Cream goes very well with it.
Delicious blueberry tea! I have to say, when I opened the bag, it gave me a sense of nostalgia. Mainly because it reminded me of the blue jolly rancher! Come on, I can’t be the only one! Lol most divine for a Saturday ☺️
A nice straightforward blueberry treat! It held up well to three steeps, and I enjoyed every one of them.
I'll have to try this one again at a different temperature and steep time to see if I can draw out more of the blueberry flavor as some reviewers have suggested. This is a good tea, but mine came out of steeping begging for just a bit more blueberry flavor.
Ooh, I think I’m finally starting to figure out the finicky Ceylon! I steeped this lovely blend at a lower temperature of 176° for 3 minutes, and the black tea behaved and is lovely! No bitterness at all, and the blueberry got the opportunity to shine! A touch of cream and sugar and it’s a fabulous treat for an afternoon sip session!
Very nice black tea, however I didn't really note any blueberry flavor . There was a wisp of a fruity promise, but nothing stood out to tell me ethos was a blueberry tea. I did enjoy this nonetheless.
There's a strong berry aroma to the dry leaves, but it smells artificial to me. Perhaps that's because on their own, blueberries aren't that pungent. Despite the artificial scent, I liked this tea more than other blueberry teas I've tried. The blueberry flavor is either more subtle than in other blends or balanced nicely by the bitter astringency of the Ceylon. I tried this tea both hot (with honey) and cold (with agave nectar), but definitely preferred it iced. Sweetening not only helped bring out the blueberry (but not overwhelmingly so) but also tempered the black tea. Even though I was pleasantly surprised by this tea, I have to admit - despite loving blueberry jam - blueberry is not my jam in tea.
I steeped for 2 min using 180 F water. This helped reduce but not eliminate the bitterness of the Ceylon tea. I allowed it to cool to room temp and I could finally taste the blueberry. I had to add a touch of Splenda and a few drops of heavy whipping cream to eliminate the bitterness, however then the blueberry flavor was masked. I am convinced that all Ceylon teas must be cold brewed in the fridge to avoid bitterness entirely.
It was good, you can smell the blueberries, and taste it too (212@ 3 min).
I'm a fan of black teas, and I usually enjoy the ceylon base that Adagio uses, and that was the case here. I had a couple of blueberries in my sample packet, and the tea smelled nicely of blueberry before brewing. The resulting tea (brewed at 212F for 3 min) wasn't as strongly blueberry flavored as it had smelled, but was still quite nice. I felt the blueberry flavor blended well with the black tea. Very nice cup.
This is very good! The black tea is not so assertive that the flavor of the berries gets lost. This tea has big blueberry flavor without it being so over the top that it can't be taken seriously. It would be a fun blend to prepare with milk and sugar.
I liked this tea. Brewed at 190ish 3 mins, added a little sweetener which calmed down the Ceylon.
I would rate this tea a 6/10 due to it has quite a bit of bitterness and lacking in blueberry flavor.
I steeped this tea at 212F for 3 minutes. I was surprised at how strong the blueberry flavor was. I often find blueberry flavor to be a little subtle in tea. I enjoyed it iced with a little sugar. I tried adding milk halfway through, but I liked it better without.
CommuniTEA Sample: Nice tea today. Not a lot of blueberry flavor, but still good.
Sipping along with the CommuniTEA today: Strong blueberry fragrance wafting from dry ingredients and packet. ONce steeped for 3 mins at 190°F (to minimize tea tannins), I notice mainly honey ceylon tea notes from my cup. When I take a sip, I enjoy a nice strong black tea with a subtle blueberry essence on the finish.
212 degrees for 3 minutes. Yummy! A very authentic blueberry flavor infused my ceylon tea today. Unadorned, it was a bit astringent so I added a touch of sugar and cream to mellow it out. Overall, a true blue tea 🍵 💙
I didn't have any blueberries in my ComunniTEA packet. But this is a nice Ceylon tea, with a hint of an unknown flavor. It wasn't strong enough to be able to tell exactly what it was. Maybe a bigger sample would give me a better result.
This tea has a mild, pleasant berry flavor with little bitterness. However, nothing said 'blueberry' about it; it tasted more like a raspberry blend to me.
I like this blend a lot. It’s very fragrant but the blueberry flavor is not overpowering. You still get a solid Ceylon flavor which a touch of sweetness.
This year I would suggest steeping at 190°F to help lower Ceylon black tea bitterness even more.
26 Jul 2020 review:
Very nice blueberry aromas were noted from the bag this morning. I steeped at a lower 200F temperature to allow the blueberry flavors to come through over any bitterness from the black tea. This resulted in a pleasant and even blend of black & blue flavors. I threw in a little sugar just for the heck of it and because I wanted to! Today’s tea was a very tasty and enjoyable drink to start my day. This one also makes for a great second steep. (3 mins @ 200F, 1/4 tsp sugar)
The blueberry taste is light here but still yummy. I think strawberry still wins in my book for best of the flavored bunch! As with all the flavored blacks, I think some oat milk helps make it more creamy and dessert-like. This is how I prefer to imbibe them. This one isn’t a WOW for me, but I do think it is a sturdy sipper for those who like their Ceylon with a twist. Happy Sipping!
This CommuniTea sample smells of blueberries! Nice blueberry taste that lingers after you sip. Tea did become slightly bitter as it cooled but brewing at a lower temp would fix that. 2nd steep not as flavorful as the first but nice.
This is a good black tea but I don't detect much blueberry flavor.
This had a strong blueberry flavor out of the packet, but I mild blueberry flavor. I prefer blueberry pancakes if I want a blueberry tea.
This is good. I think the black tea overwhelms the blueberry a little bit; it may have been better with a lighter oolong; other than that, I really enjoyed this cold-brewed.
When I opening the package The aroma reminded me of BooBerry cereal.
Not sure what I did wrong.
Steeped at 195° for about 2 maybe three minutes for the hot cup and little longer for the iced since I would be adding ice.
Both have a bitter taste to me. Even after adding sugar. :(
Updated review: Steeped the tea at 180°for2mins and it came out better than the last brew. I like the decaf blueberry better. Nice cup of tea. The blue berry flavor was subdued in this tea compared to other blueberry blends I have tried here. Brewed at a lower than recommended temperature to tame the bitterness of this black tea. It would be refreshing as an iced tea.
I have this is decaf already and love it so it's neat to get to try it caffeinated in today's CommuniTea
