Great flavor. Not real strong but still refreshing.
Good black tea but I would have liked more cranberry flavor.
Loved it. Really nice and tarty flavor that goes well with like... cookies or something. Don't make it too sugary though or it will bite you back.
Love, love love. Its that simple if you are a cranberry fan!
This one missed the mark for me. The cranberry didn't come through & it was a little bitter.
It’s bitter and not very cranberry flavored unfortunately
Nice pleasant taste but not enough cranberry flavor for me. I tasted more raspberry, so it’s still good.
This one missed the mark for me. The cranberry didn t come through and it was a little bitter. Might taste better mixed with an herbal tea to really lock in that fruity flavor.
This smelled and tasted completely artificial. I did not enjoy it at all and didn't think it reminded me of cranberry as it wasn't even tart. I find this happens with quite a few of the adagio fruit black teas, unfortunately.
good black tea witha fruity wintry flavor. i love it at christmas
Cranberry can be a difficult flavor to get right - and I have mixed feelings about this tea. It s really not unpleasant, but it s definitely very artificial tasting. It kind of smells like a scented candle a little bit, and the taste is more fake than I wish it was. That being said, it s not terrible and I will certainly enjoy using it in blends. :)
This tea is wonderful no matter the time of day. It has just the right amount of flavors and pairs well with any sweet or sandwich.
Hint of cranberries, not overpowering at all. Great at any temperature. Not a favorite, but a nice tea nonetheless.
In the bag, I can smell the tart cranberries. Brewed, it smells the same. This is Yummy! The black tea is balanced with the flavor. For some of these black teas, the tea flavor is stronger than the added flavor, and can be bitter at times (maybe I'm just brewing too long, i try to follow the package directions, though). But with this, it's just balanced. If you like tart or fruit teas, I would recommend this one.
Nothing wrong with it, but the flavor is a little lacking for me.
I got this free sample to try and it is ok. I enjoy it but I would not order this over all my other fav I have come across. It is like light cranberry water but hot. Which was strange lol
The cranberry flavor was subtle and not bitter. I liked it with a dash of milk
A nice fruity taste that works as a morning or afternoon tea,
Juicy and fresh smelling, when you open the bag it just smells like the holidays. Nicely paired with chocolate chai
A great tea hot or cold. One of my standard teas that I always keep in stock.
Good flavour but was lacking a cranberry type of flavour. My package contained mostly raspberry leaves and I did not see any cranberries either.
The cranberry was noticeable in this tea and I enjoyed it. It would probably mix well with the cream black tea.
A nice black tea with a distinct tart note of cranberry. If you don't like a hint of tart fruit in your tea, don't get, but if that sounds appealing, this will be a favorite!
This was a mild and smooth cranberry tea. The black tea provided the strongest flavor with the cranberry in the background - which for me made this an enjoyable and relaxing cup. Perfect for Thanksgiving.
i thought with the cranberry it would be super tart, but it wasnt
Appropriate and festive tea on this holiday. Enjoyed it!
Good cup of fruit flavored black tea. Put a bit of milk and sweetener
The smell of the tea is much stronger than the taste. After reading other's reviews I added a few extra cranberries from berry blast. That enhanced the cranberry flavor.
Don’t know if it was just my communiTEA or what but this had next to no cranberry flavor so not great.
In my CommuniTEA packet, I didn't have any cranberries but noticed a ton of raspberry leaves. I like them sometimes, but have had teas where too many raspberry leaves created bitterness that detracted from the tea... so I pulled out ~70% of the raspberry leaves. The dry tea aroma was slightly medicinal, but the taste once brewed was lovely to me, with a little bit of honey, and even better with a little vanilla almond milk. For me, this tea had a nice amount of berry flavor, tartness, very light bite from the raspberry leaves and light astringency, all of which worked well together. Inspired by a tropical orange cranberry blend I like called Latin Lover, I added a piece of dried orange peel to the second steep and it was lovely. Nice choice for the Thanksgiving CommuniTEA tasting!
This tea is flavorful and yummy. Great with milk with sweetener.
This tea was a good black tea, but was lacking cranberry flavor. Too bad! The smell from the packet smelled like cruising but this was missing in the brewed tea.
I LOVED this tea. Smooth, mellow and flavorful. No astringency or bitterness. Was more like a 'fresh cranberry sauce' fruit flavor than straight up cranberries--which I was pleasantly surprised about! 3 @ 212
It’s not so amazing when I open the bag. Even without putting my nose close to it. When I brewed it up it was just OK though.
This was basically black tea. If there was a cranberry flavor, it was so subtle as to be basically undetectable. I tried adding sweetener to bring out any fruit flavors, but it was still just black tea with raspberry leaves. This was pretty disappointing, since cranberry is one of my favorite flavors. I would have expected a nice, tart tea, not a tea that tastes like every other barely flavored black tea.
November CommuniTEA box:
Adagio team made a nice choice for Thanksgiving Day. I liked the smell of this tea very much.
A smooth cup and sweeter than I had anticipated. I was expecting a more tart flavor, but I ended up liking this.
I'm one of the fortunate few who got a big, fat cranberry in my packet. The dried fruit imparted just the right sweetness to the tea, making sugar unnecessary. The astringency of the Ceylon base fits the natural tannic flavor of cranberries, and the resulting cup is so pleasing that it has disappeared in record time! (3 mins @ 200 F, no additions)
One of my other favorite Berry Blast is cranberry forward too. I prepared as an iced tea to go with my main event meal today. Happy Thanksgiving! Thankful for the CommuniTEA of friends I've made this year.
Turkey day MSTies.
I sampled this Tea as part of the CommuniTEA November box.
Subtle, much less tart that I expected, this tea has a low-key flavor that makes me sip more and more
I’m pretty sad that my CommuniTEA packet was void of any actual cranberries, but oh my goodness this was amazing even without them. The tea is sweet and smooth, while a slight tart from the cranberry (flavoring in this case?). This is such a great fall and Thanksgiving tea. I’m hoping to get a third steep out of it so I can try it iced as well!
I'm not usually a huge fan of fruity teas but this one was perfect, as is -nothing added. Mostly black tea with a small touch of sweetness and tartness from the cranberry. Loved having this on Thanksgiving.
Was delightful and not a sharp bitter cranberry taste. I enjoyed it a lot. I think it could probably be mixed with a decaf vanilla OT even some rose petals. Worth trying. Happy Thanksgiving.
It is a good tart raspberry tea. But there is no cranberry here.
I was worried about mine being very astringent and bitter since the plain black tea adagio uses in their flavored teas can be very bitter and astringent, and cranberries themselves are quite bitter and astringent. I was pleasantly surprised by only minor astringency. I think the addition of a bit of hibiscus could have been a good idea to add a bit more acidity and make the flavor more reminiscent of cranberries - plus a red color.
Unfortunately my Communitea packet had an overabundance of raspberry leaves and no cranberries.
This was a pretty disappointing CommuniTEA packet. The dry leaves smelled like nonspecific berry flavoring. The brewed stuff tasted more like an empty can that had held cranberry La Croix. Metallic tang, tea, and just a hint of something fruity if I tried hard to find it.
So good and fitting for today’s Communitea selection for a Thanksgiving Day. The perfect blend of tart and sweet. I steeped my cup at 195 for 3 minutes and added a half teaspoon of honey. Delish!
Good Thanksgiving choice. I enjoyed this with a snack of cranberry sauce. It was very tart from the cranberries, but I didn’t pick up on a lot of cranberry flavor.
I wish the raspberry leaves had been left out, raspberry leaf tends to add a bit of a medicinal taste to fruity blends. Otherwise this is a nice flavor with a hint of cranberry. I wish they had a cranberry herbal blend!
