Absolutely incredible. Strong on the rose scent and flavor, but I loved it.
Our Summer Rose tea invokes the sweet lingering fragrance of late summer roses winding up a garden trellis. Mellow and deliciously floral, this rose tea is balanced with the bright briskness of a Ceylon black tea.

Absolutely incredible. Strong on the rose scent and flavor, but I loved it.
I wasn't sure how I would feel about it. Sometimes the floral flavors weird me out a little. It's not one of my go-to flavors, but I like it.
Smells better than it tastes (which is weak). Sugar and milk didn't help.
I love the smell of roses but I was unsure if I would like the taste of them. I was pleasantly surprised by the soft floral taste. It is definitely one of my unwind teas now. And I brew it like I brew my green teas, a little gentler than a traditional black. Haven't tried it with cream yet like another suggested but just a pinch of stevia.
The rose flavor that's added actually takes away from the tea-- I prefer a straight blend of roses and ceylon. Not bad, but not as good as the one from a local tea shop.
The aroma is wonderful. Amazing summer tea. Really liked it.
Great prepared as an iced tea! Really tastes like summer with the light hints of rose.
Very soothing tea. Nice to relax with on a cold night.
Very strong flavor- I recommend using fewer leaves or adding it to a blend with mild/subtly flavored teas. Good for warm summer days
This is aptly named. This tea is a great summer tea. Very crisp and clear tea, and particularly good iced. I would buy it again, but maybe only in the spring or summer. It's a little too light for colder months for me.
I did not like this tea. The rose flavor was too strong for me and came off as slightly oily, even with a short steeping time. I could see someone with a much greater love for rose enjoying it, but it definitely wasn't for me.
I love this tea, it's not too sweet, but flavorful.
I mix this and the ginseng green together it is awsome
Very Rosey and very summery. Don't oversteer though
I prepared this for a Baby Shower and it was the hit of the teas.
Accidentally forgot that it was steeping (as I was multitasking) but it turned out delicious! A definite favorite. It's good hot or cold in my opinion, and best without sweetening. It has a very very perfume-y taste, which I personally like but probably isn't for everyone, and doesn't taste especially artificial. Not bitter.
This tea was just, 'meh' for me. I wasn't really a fan of the flavor, and I tried it was with milk and sugar, and just black, I've had better but it was worth the sample price to try something new.
I really disliked this tea at first. I loved the appearance and the smell but the taste was so bitter to me. I bought a huge bag of it so I kept trying new blends, but it still tasted bitter. After reading reviews of others, I finally got it right! I tend to like stronger tasting teas so I steep most of my teas for several minutes. With this particular tea, it is imperative to use one modest teaspoon and steep for no longer than 3 minutes. I also like it a lot better cold. It is PERFECT for a warm summer afternoon. :-)
can a tea be beautiful? This one is. It has a rich dark heady rose flavor and smell, with dark tea base.
VERY strong. Much like being punched in the face by a bunch of roses.
I've had tea with rose petals before and it always left me wanting more rose flavor. That was not a problem with Adagio's take on the subject. I drank this with milk and Splenda and it was a delicious floral treat. Feels exotic and decadent!
You know what you're getting with this tea just from the name. the rose flavor is very different but I like it. (I'm a fan of floral-flavors.) It's super tasty with milk and honey.
This tea is absolutely lovely iced, and perfect mixed with cream tea. It's gotta be what fair is drink at their tea parties!
I loooove this tea, it makes me feel just like the The Dowager Countess, taking a sip of soothing tea before I have to side eye someone who keeps prattling on and on. Seriously, it's just a wonderful flavor, it's one of my favorites.
Really nice lighter black tea for warmer months. It's floral but not sweet.
When you open the bag, the smell of roses hits you in the face.
It tasted a little bitter to me. I had to make it fairly sweet.
This tea is perhaps one of the most fragrant blends I've ever experienced - the addition of the real rose petals make preparing and drinking it an especially enjoyable experience. My only wish is that this variety of tea was a little bit stronger, the taste tends to fade and weaken rather quickly.
Amazing tea - floral but not overpowering. Perfect with cream and a pinch of rock sugar.
I was not prepared for this. It was like a mouthful of rose petals. Even adding sugar and milk only makes it barely palatable. I'm chilling some in the hopes that the flower flavor won't be as overpowering when its cold, but I am really not holding out hope.
Amazing!!! I love rose tea and this one is perfect.
high caffeine but the roses have a very nice soft flavor you might not expect
An intoxicating aroma, and when brewed correctly (not too long or it gets too intense) it's a lovely floral brew. I like it best diluted with the Ceylon Sonata. I think it will be fantastic in iced tea.
I got a sample of this with my last order and it might actually be my favorite part! Absolutely going to purchase again, the rose flavor is there without being overwhelming or bitter.
This tea is amazing! It does taste a bit like perfume, so a fair warning to anyone who is on the fence, if you think it might be too strong, just grab a sample. It feels like drinking a a warm bouquet of roses.
The rose aroma was overwhelming straight out of the bag, but after brewing, it sharpened a bit to complement the astringency of the tea.
LOVE LOVE LOVE!! The soft floral scent and taste with the boldness of black tea has become my new fav!
This is a classic floral tea. I'd like to try it iced next.
I love the delicate hint of rose and the fact that real, dried rose was used in the tea. Overall a pretty straight-forward black tea with more of an aroma than a taste. I enjoyed it.
The rose smell is very strong, and it's good, but I guess floral teas just aren't my thing.
It snaked and tasted just like a summer rose. Very relaxing.
I love rose teas, and this one is no different. It tastes the way you imagine an old-fashioned rose garden smells in late spring and is great over ice.
As previous reviewers mentioned, I highly recommend you start out with a very small amount (< 1 tsp) and brew for 2 min. If you need a stronger flavor then you can increase the time. This tea is potent. At first I was very disappointed. Now I'm so happy with its delicate flavor.
this was an ok tea when sipped piping hot. the minute it cools down for me it gets too flowery for my taste.
This tea was good, however, I really wish the rose flavor had been stronger.
This tea has a very nice floral aroma, but the flavor isn't what I expected. The floral flavor is more of an aftertaste. If that's what you're looking for, this would be a great pick! I love the aroma of the tea.
The scent alone had me intrigued, this tea is beautiful in the bag and in the cup. I sprinkled in a pinch of raw sugar and added a chilled lemon. I couldn't set my cup down till it was gone.
A flowery black tea that smells of roses. It didn't bring summer to my mind so much as gardens in general, which I guess grow in the summer. But I didn't feel like I could hear the wind and feel the warm air on my face. Like how the Candy Cane tea always makes me feel cold and like there's snow all around me.
None the less, this was still an enjoyable, if rather simple, tea. Some flowers, some black tea, nothing too complicated. Good for when one is feeling like something without any complications or subtleties.
I was surprised how well I liked this. It was good hot, but also made a great iced tea for spring.
Best. Rose. Tea. Ever. Floral and creamy. Relaxing and refreshing. Not overpowering in the least. Just right.
