I really really like this tea because the roses give it a more earthy and sweet taste. I would buy it again!
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.

I really really like this tea because the roses give it a more earthy and sweet taste. I would buy it again!
Very comforting and soothing if you like the flavor of rose.
This is a rose tea with a hearty, well-rounded floral scent and a good balance between black tea and rose flavors. So romantic!
What a fun special tea. I love rose teas and this one doesn't disappoint, pleasant aroma reminiscent of grandma's garden. It is also comfortably priced as well. Try it iced!
AMAZING. It's like a warm rosy hug which is great with all these blizzards. I add a splash of milk and sugar
This tea is very delicious, but it takes a bit of time to get used to the taste.
It delivers exactly what it says it will. I prefer this one blended with something fruity, but it's not bad on its own.
I liked this tea. I did expect more of a rose scent, though, given the name, but the fact that there wasn't didn't take away from my enjoyment.
I loved seeing all of the petals in the bag. The taste of roses is very strong and I love the aroma.
Subtle black tea with smooth tastes. Great tea to start a morning off with!
This was purchased as a gift for a friend that loves floral blends, she really liked it. It was not my thing but she liked it, don't believe either of us will repurchase it but it was nice to experience something outside of my comfort zone.
Love, love, love the smell of this one. So soothing and I love sharing it with my friends just to see how surprised they are when they taste it.
Nice taste of roses - not too strong which is great
Smells like a rose garden, tastes like roses. Lots of petals in my bag. Definitely expect those floral notes to stand out, but it's not at all perfumy. I drink it plain, but it's quite bright with noticeable sweetness even without sugar. Resteeps alright, a bit milder on the second cup.
OH BOY. This was the tea I was looking for. I'm typically a no/low caffeine tea drinker, but I LOVE this tea. In fact, I think this may be the very tea I got addicted to at a tea room I sometimes visit. It's wonderfully fragrant, like sipping roses, but the black tea keeps it grounded enough so that the taste isn't overly sweet or cloying. I wish there were some way to make an herbal version of this, but I really think it needs the black tea to balance it. Oh, well. It's totally worth making an exception.
It's a black tea with a very perfume-y rose taste. I tend to mix this with the cream tea to temper the floral flavor. It's basic, but it's everything you could expect from a rose black tea. I do love the appearance, and there's a fair amount of rose petals.
My sister-in-law is in love with this tea. She loves floral teas. I really like one teaspoon for every 4 teaspoons of English breakfast.
This is the first rose tea I've tried, I wasn't sure about it but it's growing on me
So, I brewed this tea in a small tea pot (two-three cups) while I started playing a game. The first cup, on the late side of acceptable brew time, was fantastic: just the right amount of rose flavor to black tea. The second cup, half an hour (probably closer to an hour, I suck at time) later the tea has taken on the bitter qualities of oversteeped assam. Can't wait for my second (within steeptime) pot!
This is the perfect tea for the dead of winter when all you want to think about is spring. Caffeinated, floral, and uplifting.
I brewed this for company (she's a tea snob) and she loved it. I think she'll be a new Adagio customer.
I absolutely love this tea! One of my all time favorites! It's perfect for morning or afternoon tea.
This is one of my favorite teas! It has such a nice floral taste to it.
Nice rose flavor but I wish it had only rose petals and not rose flavoring added.
Liked the scent upon opening the sample and the scent once made. Enjoyed this tea and it's somewhat subtle rose flavor.
I know people say it tasted floral to them, but the only thing it tasted to me was strong and black.
Love the smell of this tea! Reminds me of my grandmothers rose garden.
This tea has a wonderful flowery aroma and tastes great. It is one of my personal favorites.
Delicious and floral -- and 'floral' is not a taste you run into much with drinks. Smells like a bouquet of roses and doesn't get overly bitter when you oversteep it.
I have a weakness for Rose-flavored teas. This is a good one. I like it as iced tea too.
I love black and rose teas. I have to admit it this may be one of my favorites!!
Fairly decent rose black tea although not one of Adagio's better black teas. Its certainly preferable to anything you can find in your average American grocery store, but there are better loose-leaf rose teas out there. I think of it as an 'office tea' - I don't mind leaving it in the common area at work knowing others might pinch some, so its good to have at work.
If you enjoy floral teas, you will LOVE summer rose. It literally tastes like a bouquet of roses. It has a natural sweetness and is fabulous both hot and iced. Just incredible.
Great rose tea was exactly what I was looking for! Smells great like roses and is very floral. You don't need much, I prefer my teas to be a bit lighter in taste so I usually use like half a teaspoon in a giant mug. I often rebrew tea leaves, but I found that this tea didn't do well with rebrewing, the rose flavor is almost completely gone.
A great, affordable tea and definitely one that I would recommend to people that enjoy floral flavors. I bought the 3 ounce bag and it was a huge bag that is very affordable and I will be enjoying this for a while. :)
Nice rose tea - a black tea with lovely rose notes. I drink it with milk and sugar, though I could see most would like it plain. I think this would probably be lovely as an iced tea in the summer.
The best word to describe this tea is 'beautiful,' as that fits both its aroma and flavor. Because it's more unusual, I think of it as a special occasion tea, as opposed to an everyday one, but I enjoy savoring it on cool mornings, or sharing it with visiting friends.
Had a nice, soft flavor! Very earthy and flowery.
It is interesting also. I love anything Rose and this one has
the delicate scent of rose. Very good!
This is a very fragrant tea. I actually was not sure I'd like it because the scent of roses was quite powerful in the bag. However, the brewed tea did not taste nearly as strong as it smelled which was a pleasant surprise. It ended up being a very nice rose tea that wasn't at all overwhelming.
I do suspect over steeping would negatively impact the taste so I'll definitely always be careful with this one.
9/10 would bang
This tea has a lighter flavor than the other flavored tea I've tried but I think the lighter flavored is better because it doesn't overpower the rose. it has a nice floral and kind of fruity taste to it. it would be perfect for a summer day.
My gateway into loose leaf teas was a rose tea I had years ago at a little tea cottage. Summer Rose by adagio tastes just like that time. It smells and tastes like a fresh bouquet of roses. It's a strong black tea meant for a true rose lover. By far my favorite tea.
I'm not huge on floral teas, and I got this to try it. This is the first floral black tea I think I've tried. It's pretty good. Very fragrant.
I've been looking for something to replace an older black rose tea that I loved, and I think this is it! Smells lovely and has a good balance of flavor without getting to 'perfumey.' Good with milk, too.
This tea is light and comforting and simply delicious! It has a heavenly floral aroma with a subtle taste that is very addictive! I can't wait to purchase a full pouch!
Fragrant but not overpowering this is delicious hot or iced. It really goes well wih a bit of milk.
It's not really my cup of tea. I can't really taste the rose as much as I smell it.
This was an ok sample but I wouldnt order it in bulk. Smells lovely though.
AMAZING. I've been looking everywhere for a good rose tea and not only does this one smell like heaven, but it tastes like sweet milk chocolate with the smell of summer. Had it straight with one sugar cube and my senses exploded with delight.
This tea smells like it should be completely overpowering, so I was really surprised when it turned out to taste completely amazing.
