★★★★☆
This is a great green tea - slightly dry, with definite hints of apricot/citrus in there, especially in the smell. The taste is very crisp and refreshing.
Green tea from China with delicate apricot flavor. Warm, dense fruit-floral aroma, succulent texture.

I kind of took a leap of faith with this tea since I generally dislike fruity hot teas and I wanted a tea I could have iced or hot. (I love fruity iced teas.) However, this tea was very light and soothing hot. I loved the lightly fruity smell and the mostly green taste. Usually my issue with hot fruity teas is that they taste like cider, but this didn't remind me of cider at all. And later I tried it ice, and it was amazing! The apricot flavor came up front and was very refreshing. Adding a tiny bit of sugar kind of boosted up the fruity flavor too! I purchased only a sample size, but I'll make sure to buy a 3oz bag next time.
In the bag this tea smells like those Peachy-O candies. I can't seem to brew it with that same taste though. It's a little too mellow for my taste, I would have liked a stronger apricot flavour. Still pretty tasty though.
I really wanted a fruity green tea, but apricot was just not for me. I guess I'm just not a fan of the flavor itself, and it was very strong. Apricot lovers will be happy, but I've learned I'm not one of them.
Love the fresh apricot flavor and the green tea is so healthy.
Not a big green tea drinker, but my fiance loves this. She likes it on its own, no sweetener needed.
This is a very mild green tea and the apricot flavor is not too strong. It adds just enough sweetness so no extra sugar or honey is needed. The balance is great.
This one has a fruity and enjoyable flavor, but is not as good as the pomegranate green, for example.
Good green tea. I could not get more than 1 infusion out of it without it tasting spinachy, maybe I waited to long between infusion, I will try again. Light apricot flavor is nice.
This is probably my favorite green tea, it's got a delicious fruity flavor that doesn't overpower the delicate green tea. I also creating blends using this tea, mixing it with vanilla green, mango green, or white pear. I'd highly recommend this to anyone who wants to try green tea.
I'm trying this for the first time -- and I like it!
Very clear and fresh taste -- very good as a hot tea, and would probably be good cold as well (I prefer my greens hot). The fresh apricot smell is very nice--a joy from bag to cup!
A good cup of tea. Not as good as the Mango Green in my opinion, but I think I just wanted some more apricot flavor. Still a delicious tea.
Very tasty tea, just the right amount of sweetness from the apricot. Would definatly purchase again! Very smooth!
Wonderful! It's great iced or hot. The apricot flavor is lovely.
Smells very fruity and sweet in the bag, maybe a bit artificial. Becomes milder when brewed. The tea itself tastes very delightful and refreshing, but might be bitter if steeped too long.
This made a nice cup of tea. It was not my favorite out of my last adagio tea haul, but the green tea was nice with the subtle notes of the apricot.
In the bag, it smelled rather malty underneath all that apricot. After brewing, the apricot was pretty weak (thankfully, I didn't taste any of the malt!) It's a pretty gentle green, not something that will shock your system but it's a decent tea that won't distract.
Smells a little too sweet in the bag, but it mellows and is very light and just sweet enough in the cup. An absolutely refreshing drink. Really really lovely.
As one would expect, it's similar to Citron Green, though I still like Citron a bit better. I wonder, though, what might happen if I try blending them...
I really liked this green tea. It had a lot of flavor and the amount of green tea was perfect
My favorite green is citron but this one is good too. I have a thing for apricot
A pretty good green tea. I couldn't really taste the apricot flavor in it, but it still hits the spot.
Hard to call this good only since it's a step above. Nice clear taste, not much apricot but a slight fruity flavor. I drink this as ice tea only. I'd love to return to the old system of numbers so you can rank teas. This is definitely worth buying.
A fragrant, fruity, and soothing green tea. Great as a dessert or afternoon tea!
Very soft version of a green tea which is great as it doesn't taste too green. :)
One of my favorite greens. Excellent taste. Not an overpowering fruity taste.
Very nice tasting tea. I love this one cold. I think it will be delicious in the summertime iced with some sugar.
Love this tea. The apricot flavor is perfect - not too strong, not too faint. It doesn't even need sweetening!
I love this tea because it's not too overpowering. I've never been a fan of green tea until i tried this-no grassy, earthy taste and is complimented well by the apricot flavor, apple pieces, and marigold flowers.
The apricot flavoring is just a little less natural than what I was expecting with this tea. It isn't bad, but it is just missing a little something.
I am not usually a huge fan of green tea, nor is my mother-in-law, but she liked this green tea. Nice fruit flavor and not too grassy.
Apricot Green was one of my favorite varieties when I began to order teas from Adagio. I ran out often so I decided to order a larger quantity. However, they changed the blend and added what could be presumed to be chunks of dried apricot, which was never part of the previous blend. The flavor is not as good and it seems to me that all this accomplished was to add bulk and volume to the tea so that it ultimately costs more for less. I actually find that if I pick out all of the chunks, the flavor is more acceptable. But the change was a bad move, likely intended simply to increase profit.
Not as much flavor as I'd like. It's a very mellow tea with both the flavors of the tea and the apricot being very muted. A good blend all in all with neither flavor being more dominate than the other. Some people would love this tea but I like more bold tastes.
A really nice light tea with a little sweet flavor. Enjoyed this cold and hot with just a little honey.
I've tried the mango green first, which was great, but now that I've tasted the apricot...I didn't know what I was missing! Love it!
Too mild for me. I like fruity green teas generally but this one just doesn't have enough of the fruity taste for me to buy it again.
Very smooth. High quality green tea with a hint of Apricot. Very enjoyable!
Was not impressed with this at all. Could not taste the apricot at all.
This tea has a nice fruity flavor, very refreshing. It works very well as Iced tea in combination with fresh apricot slices!
Apricot green is a wonderful introduction to flavored green teas. This tea is a lightly sweet mellow green tea.
THIS HAS BECOME MY STAPLE TEA. I LIKE IT HOT IN THE MORNINGS, AND CHILLED IN THE AFTERNOON.
I brewed this hot and found that I didn't really care for it. I quickly realized that I am not much of a 'fruit tea' person. But then brewed it iced and found it to be an incredibly delicious, light and exotic iced tea! I love it!
My favorite green and that is saying a lot. I gravitate towards flavored teas and this one is well balanced with just the right amount of flavor. Variety is the spice of life, but I always get a big bag of this apricot green tea.
I love the apricot taste. This is one of my favorite green tea!
I have had a few green teas, and most have been palatable, but this one is superb. It doesn't taste grassy, at all. It's light and fruity and refreshing. It makes a perfect iced tea. I sweeten it with Splenda, but I imagine it would be delicious on its own if I didn't have such a sweet tooth.
So far this is my favorite. I love the taste of apricot in this tea.
Makes a terrific iced tea, wonderful gentle flavor
Pretty darn good. Very fruity and mouthwatering hot, more floral and refreshing iced.
Doesn't actually taste much like green tea, so if there's anyone who wants the health benefits and caffeine of green tea but doesn't usually like the taste, they should probably try this one.
I absolutely love this flavor, it is the perfect balance between the apricot flavor and the taste of the green tea. It is a favorite with Me, my children and my grandchildren. What supports this most is I do not like apricots, but the tea is an awesome addition to my tea cupboard.
I love this refresing amazing tea. Making a cup of tea puts you in a peaceful mood1
