Not my favorite. I don't know if maybe I steeped it for too long, but when the time came to drink, it just tasted bad. The taste of it was too strong and almost artificial. Thank goodness I only had a sample size.
Tangy, sour-sweet Hibiscus flower with brisk Ceylon tea. The fruity-spicy aroma and rich flavor are refreshing hot or iced!

Somewhat enjoyable but I don't enjoy the smell of the tea. Maybe its just not for me.
I really enjoyed this tea, the flavor is nice, it's not too bitter like some other black teas. It's really delicious as an iced tea. I have yet to try it served hot.
This is my favorite morning tea> It's light and fresh
Very good, very sweet! I liked it but it was not what I was expecting from the smell when I first opened the package. If you like fruity tastes this is for you!
This tea really hits the spot when you wake up and need to feel refreshed. Really wakes you up and has a great strong taste. The smell is not over powering either and you can taste the earthy taste it gives off. Very happy it did not have a flower over powering taste.
Not a huge fan of floral teas other than Jasmine green teas, but this one wasn't too bad.
Love this tea! It's got a flowery-fruitiness that I love. It's great with a little sugar and milk, for sure!
It's not that it's a bad quality tea. It's just a little to strong for me. I'll have to try it with less next time.
A nice sweet tasting tea. A little bit of a fruitiness to it. It made just as good an ice tea as it did warm.
I am what you consider an amateur tea drinker, so I may not be qualified to assess this tea. My overall experience with this tea was great, especially after adding a small amount of sugar.
The flavor of the black tea over rides any hibiscus flavor for me, sadly. It's a flirty hint in the background, rather than even a co-star.
This tea has a delightful floral taste, which can be a bit much. Overall very good, fruity, sweet, and yummy. That said, the flowery taste can be a bit overwhelming and slightly 'chemically,' especially when hot.
It was ok I was hoping for it to be a bit milder.
This one was fabulous! The hibiscus flavor was very present, a nice spicy-fruity-floral kinda thing that I'm very picky about how I enjoy, but the tea pulls it off very well.
The hibiscus is one of my favorites - floral but not too strong.
I'm sure there are people that will like this tea. I am not one of them. Admittedly I didn't really know what hibiscus tastes like before ordering this tea (I always pictured something rather floral). For anyone who doesn't know, take some black pepper and steep that for several minutes and I imagine you will get similar results. It worked in its minute quality present in the Mango Melange tea, but standalone I couldn't finish the cup.
This hibiscus was mixed with black tea which I didn't notice at first, but I much prefer it to be completely herbal.
This is one of my favorite teas and Adagio's doesn't disappoint.
HIBISCUS IS MY FAV!!!
Very floral in aroma. The taste is a bit lighter in terms of the floral notes, but still emphatic. I have a hunch this would make a lovely iced tea.
Great! This tea was excellent. I will get it again.
Very fine tea. I recommend this 100 to all those who value great floral tea.
I did not like this tea. I have brewed tea from hibiscus flowers and really enjoyed it, but this did not compare.
This is my second favorite black tea after the mango black tea. It also smells great when still dry.
Loved this tea. A new favorite that I will always keep on hand.
This hibiscus blend has a poignant aftertaste characteristic of other black teas. Very enjoyable tea for this trait!
Tastes a little like furniture polish to me, to floral.
I've never had hibiscus before, so it was hard for me to know what to expect. It has a slight flowery aroma, but I really didn't taste anything from the tea, sweet or otherwise. Perhaps I need to tinker with it some more, but for now it was rather disappointing.
Very nice taste and excellent aroma. I will definitely add this to the daily tea option.
It has a nice smooth taste with a small tang of the hibiscus flowers blended in the tea. I like this one and I do think its good on its own or blended with something else.
Very candy-like taste with a fruity finish. Perfect for blends with berry teas or to add a signature touch to an earl grey or a stronger tea.
Really like the hibiscus flavor, even blended with they oriental spice was refreshing.
Not great, but good. It's a nice smooth black tea and the hibiscus gives it a little bit of a floral kick. It's probably better cold, like other people are suggesting.
I first became interested in hibiscus when I heard of all the health benefits it has. This tea is very good hot or iced and has a light, tangy flavor to it
This one is interesting. I really liked the taste at first but as I drank more and more it felt more and more plain.
A nice tea, a little tangy with a good floral bouquet both in taste and smell.
I really like this tea. It has a more bitter cranberry-like taste with some sweetness too.
This was a great blend. I mixed it with chamomile and peppermint. so wonderful before bed with a book! Love It. thinking of making another Yoga blend with this one!
I didn't have high expectations for this tea because I didn't sound like 'my cup of tea' - but I enjoy picking up things outside my usual. This was free. It was excellent! Not bitter, no aftertaste. Wasn't overpowering. I wasn't a fan of the scent out of the bag, but I don't let that determine my teas. I'll purchase this in the future!
Thi hibiscus tea is so refreshing. I enjoy a cup daily for the taste as well as the health benefits. Will make sure to keep my stash replenished!
Happy love it sorry I suck at reviews probaby one of the few flowery teas I've liked so far.
I was a little disappointed with this one. I tried it cold and it was okay, but definitely a black tea. I was hoping for more of the hibiscus flavor, but it wasn't there. It is much better as a hot drink with a little bit of sugar. It has a nice fruity warm flavor, better hot than cold.
Would love to have a tropical twist on this but still very good.
A little bitter after taste if brewed longer than 3 minutes but add less tea maybe. Needed to add a little sugar and more water to my cup of tea. Very fragrant, the hibiscus scent reminded me of my trip to South America. Will drink this tea cold.
I adore this tea! I love floral teas and this is wonderfully fragrant (and tastes great too...kind of important for tea, huh?). If you don't like floral, this will not be your cup 'o tea but I was so happy to experience it for the first time, and I know I'll continue to enjoy it
I usually don't like hot fruity teas but this one is a win for sure! I've recently discovered the wonderful taste hibiscus has to offer and I'm fairly certain this tea will be one of my go-to teas from now on.
something different to sip on! a pleasant change when you don't feel drawn to one in particular that day.
Hibiscus is the only floral flavor I can not only stand, but actually like. I enjoy this tea as it's obviously hibiscus, without being a strong floral tea. I image though that this tea would fall short for someone who really wanted a strong flower presence.
I didn't like the flavor of this tea at all. Not even really sure how to explain it. :(
