A great tea for blending to add a creaminess, but not so much for drinking straight. Just a nice creamy breakfast blend.
Classic Ceylon tea touched with the flavor of fresh cream. Sweet and warm, pleasantly brisk, delicately creamy.

This tea is wonderful. Very simple and comforting, but with a smoky sweetness that almost reminds me of the smell of good pipe tobacco. I feel like I'm at Grandpa's house.
I'm not a fan of the smell but once I sipped it I found that it was ok. I usually don't add any sweetener or milk to my tea but this one kinda needs it IMO.
My sister came over and asked for a cup of plain black tea. This was the closest thing. Poured it for her, she LOVED it. Best endorsement I've heard! I love the way this smells.
This tea is very mellow and pleasant and has just the right amount of sweetness. It's good on its own, but it's also very nice when blended with stronger teas. It has a lovely aroma.
Similar to the black Vanilla - I really like mixing this tea with other flavors, like Orange.
Love it!!! Balanced taste with no need of sweetener or milk.
This was a Christmas gift for my mother-in-law, who is impossible to shop for. She loved it! She gave it two thumbs up.
Ahhhhhh this is amazing. It's so simple but delicious!
Beautiful flavor! Warm, almost dry notes that break over your tongue followed by the flavor of sweet cream. I love this tea!
I had high hopes for this tea, but found that the tannins on the finish were a bit too strong for what is a very mild cream taste. Adding cream helps to equal out the tannins and emphasize the cream, but seems like it should be unnecessary.
Don't let this one steep for too long or it gets bitter. Will try steeping only three minutes as it says on the package. Unfortunately I let it steep for too long and had to add additional almond milk to sweeten it up again. Smells fabulous! Will try again.
I love the subtle hint of creaminess in this black tea!
My taste buds have died and gone to heaven. Seriously! I wish there was a higher rating than 5 to give a tea, this one deserves sooo much more than 5 stars! I loved loved loved this tea. Absolutely flawless, wouldn't change a thing about it. It's deliciously creamy and sweet without being overpowering. This one will go fast lol
A pleasant mellowness to this tea. I enjoyed adding it to other teas more so than a stand alone.
Love mixing this tea with pretty much any other flavor. Great to have on hand.
Great on its own, or as a mixer to 'boost' another black tea.
Nice light flavor with just a hint of cream, will be buying again
i got this for my husband, but he hasn't tried it. it isn't bad, it's just ok- the cream smell/taste reminds me of marshmallows or a vanilla potpourri. i am going to try something different next time, unless my husband eventually tries this and he likes -- updated, my husband loves this which i suspected he would so he'll be the one drinking most of this
I love this tea! It's sweet enough on it's own, but I also use it to compliment several other teas. I typically add it to my earl gray moonlight! So lovely!
This is a great cup of tea with just a bit of sugar. I liked it so much, I sent it to my nieces as a gift.
I didn't like this at all by itself. Mixed with the raspberry herbal it was perfect.
This is my favorite after dinner tea. The added cream flavor makes the tea almost velvety. I like to dunk shortbread in this tea.
I was hoping to a sweeter, creamier taste. It might just be that I over steeped it, but for a 3 minute steep time, it may have been too easy. It had an overpowering black tea taste and it was difficult to taste the cream. It was certainly there, though. I was just expecting a bit more.
I like this for mixing, especially with hibiscus-based fruit teas (which I find too tart).
This tea is perfect when prepared as the instructions say. This is probably my favoritest tea ever.
Wonderful! One of my favorites from Adagio. Sweet cream flavor
I couldn't even finish my first cup of this! The tea on first opening the bag had a wonderful aroma from the cream and the ceylon sonata, however on brewing the tea has an almost bitter flavor. I can only assume this comes from the flavoring used for the cream as ceylon sonata is one of my favorites.
I like the flavor of this tea. I don't know if it's very 'creamy' though. To me it's similar to the vanilla but I do like it.
On its own this tea is good, but if you wanna try your hand at mixing teas this is a great weapon to add to your arsenal. Overall a wonderful dessert tea.
This is a mellow, sweet tea. It is very smooth and a pleasure to drink.
A very good tea, but I have had Earl Grey Cream and that is even better.
One of my favorite teas. Warm and comforting. A must try!!!
Just like it says- creamy! :) I like this tea both iced and hot
This is one of those teas that I love mixing with other teas.
I can't say that I taste the sweetness or the creaminess that so many reviewers mentioned, but this is a good black tea that's a bit different from a straight black. A bit softer and easy to drink.
I love the taste of cream so I was very intrigued by this flavor. I'm not a big fan of black tea so I was pleasantly surprised. True to it's name it tasted just like 'cream'. I'm having a tea party so this will be included in my recommendation of one to try. Good job Adagio!!!
Good as a mixer. I like it with coconut and black tea.
A good tea, but seemed to be missing something. Being a fan of Earl Grey Moonlight I think the cream by itself is why I felt that way. Still good, and recommended.
too bitter for my liking. more of a peppery taste which i do not like. gotta say though, its the first ive found out of about 20 adagio teas that i dont like! 19/20 is pretty good guys! .)
Best when mixed with another type of tea. Adds sweetness, but too sweet for me to drink on its own
Straight up it needs no sweetner or milk to taste deliciously creamy, like birthday cake ice cream. A little bit too much so for me to drink often as I generally like my tea a little sharper, but great for sometimes and for blending.
This tea is AMAZING. It's sweet and mellow and delicious all by itself. I am excited to try my hand and blending this tea with other flavors. I think this would be a good tea to experiment with. YUM! I definitely will buy it again!
This tea is really smooth. Some teas I like to have milk. This tea I don't need it. It lives up to its name.
I nice cream flavor not need for sugar or cream in this tea.
I got this mostly to mix with other teas. On its own it's got a light vanilla flavor but it's still a very nice, smooth tea.
I haven't had this tea on it's own, but it's a wonderful addition to any black tea to mellow the flavor. The cream notes bring down the bite of some spices and brings up floral notes.
I really loved this tea when I first got it. I drink my tea black, with no cream or sweetener, so this seemed like the perfect treat to end my day with. But I tired of the taste after a couple weeks. It really does have a creamy sweetness to it, exactly like it claims. And it's light enough to blend well with others, I'm sure. Good, but I probably won't be ordering it again for a while.
This is another one of those teas I use for blending. Which isn't to say that it isn't perfectly yummy on its own, but it does have this ability to enhance almost anything you mix it with.
Surprisingly has a nice cream flavor without being cloying or artificial. I suggest it to friends who are lactose intolorant and miss the cream in thier morning beverage.
