Chinese green tea with the delicate flavors of lemon and lime. An Adagio favorite, refreshing hot and iced.

I ordered the free sample offer and this was one of the ones that I received. It was so good that I came back for more! It is now one of my favorites! It's especially nice to start off the day with a citrusy boost. And I typically don't care for green tea. But y'all do it right!
Starts off as a very nice green tea with a slight hint of lemon/lime. However, I do find a bit of bitterness towards the end.
Very smooth and refreshing cup of tea. I really like the scent and the orange flavor.
Very yummy and refreshing. I have so many that I have enjoyed that it's hard to decide which ones to order.
Lemon/lime flavors are usually not my thing, but this is the exception. This tea is just tangy enough to provide a gentle morning wake-up.
Great citrus flavor to this tea. The aroma is amazing as well
My favorite green tea to have iced and one of the few that tastes great without sugar.
My favorite! The citrus tones are perfect balanced with the green tea. The high quality big leaves of tea are full of flavor. I recommend this if you like green tea.
I love how this smells, and it is nice to drink in the afternoon because it’s not too high in caffeine.
This is my go to tea for when I order Chinese. The citrus adds that extra punch for the meal. I’m hooked on this tea.
This is a great green tea for a cold night, After a cool shower this tea hits the spot.
Citron Green tea offers a lovely balance of green tea with vibrant lemon and lime flavors. The citrus notes bring a refreshing zest that complements the smooth, slightly grassy base of the green tea, making each sip light and revitalizing. It’s the perfect tea for a refreshing boost with a touch of bright, natural sweetness.
This is the second time I’ve ordered this tea. Also great in iced tea version
A staple!! Nothing complex about this blend but it's incredible and it's a favorite. Smooth green tea with very specific and noticeable notes of lemons and oranges. It's not an illusion of mixed citrus flavor but specifically those tastes. Perfect after dinner or before bed and delicious hot or iced.
I am a huge fan of the citrus mint tea. I thought I would try this one to compare. I think I prefer the added mint element to the other blend. If you are a fan of an earthy green with lemony notes, this is your tea!
Citron green sample was so good I had to buy a full bag to keep in my stash of teas. Smell is divine when you open the bag.
Nice combination of citrus flavors. Good hot or cold. Green tea is one of my favorites as the caffeine level doesn't give me the jitters.
This green tea is a great tea for after dinner. The mint helps with digestion. This tea is lower in caffeine so you don’t have to worry about drinking it in the early evening
Tasted like your usual green tea, rather mellow. Nothing special. If you are looking for a bland green tea that is smooth, this is it.
Very good green tea with a burst of citrus on the nose. Subtle to taste, definitely a favorite
This is a delightful cup of green tea! The citrus zip to it is so satisfying. It is a wonderful addition to my mornings.
This is one of my favorite green teas. It is well balanced and not bitter if you don't brew it too long. I will keep this one in my pantry.
Great tea hot or iced with a subtle citrus note. Will likely purchase this again.
The citrus is a perfect amount of light and refreshing, and the green flavour is an excellent compliment to it.
this ones ok. to me i taste the grass of the green tea more than the actual flavor. still tolerable iced
Absolutely outstanding! I absolutely love everything about this tea!
Smooth bright green tea with a little citrus. Very enjoyable. This would be good chilled and hot.
I'm more of a black tea fan, but this green is excellent. A friend says it is her favorite tea, so having the teabags on hand is a must for when she visits!
Today’s tea was not my cup of choice. I don’t really care for it.
A subtle, but pleasant, fruit tea. Great with honey.
This blend does capture the citron flavors and the green adds a nice touch. I, too, recommend adding a little extra lemon peel (selefina) to make it pop.
A delightful citrusy tea. It’s so bright and enjoyable. I love it. 💕. This tea I feel is enhanced with a little honey.
I've tried this one twice now, here and in the green tea sampler box, and I don't know why but it just doesn't work for me! I think the citrus flavor is balanced in just the wrong way for my palate, so it detracts from the natural green tea flavor instead of enhancing it. Think I'd rate it higher if I didn't want to like it so much -- it just doesn't live up to my hopes and expectations.
Beautiful citrus green tea. It's perfectly light and has a nice orange/almost honey suckle flavor to it.
A smooth green with lemon, lime, and orange notes. Mellow and mild.
I could take it or leave it with this tea. Tasted kind of bland to me.
On opening the communiTEA packet, aroma was quite good. But after brewing it kind of fell flat.
This is an excellent green tea blend. Citrusy without being sour, just light and refreshing. I don't always like green tea if it leans toward grassy and this one does not. Great job Adagio!
This is the perfect tea. Right amount of Citron kick. I hope to buy some for making iced .
It's a nice flavored green tea.
The citrus is nice, but I think I'll stick with autumn green mist and my cranberry nut muffin green.
The aroma from the packet is lemon-lime. Orange peel and marigold are present among the green tea leaves. 90 sec @ 165. The citrus taste is more orange with lemon. Medium astringency. I recommend as a fan of both citrus and green tea.
I will start by saying I love green teas. This one was no different. I really enjoyed the smooth flavor of the green tea with the little bit of tang with the citrus. I added a dip of Green Tea honey and light squeeze of lime.
3/19/24 Communitea: A lovely tea even without sugar, this is a green tea with a rather light but pleasant citrus flavor. Having been burned by lemon flavored teas before, I was worried this would taste like dish soap- thankfully, it does not! When steeped as directed, it is only slightly bitter in the way any citrus fruit would be. I can imagine it would be great with honey for a sore throat.
Review from July 2022:
I appreciate the Citrus-y vibe! I imbibed hot, 180° for 3 mins..as well as iced. I do like this, iced--way better...
💚🧊 Green fans shall most likely really dig this--with maybe even an extra citrus splash within--Add some orange and lemon peels and zesty squeeze!! This is surely refreshing iced, on a hot summer's day...
This blend is so good! I love green tea, and I love the almost fruity cereal flavors this invokes!
A very enjoyable fresh and light green tea.
This Citron green is amazing!!! This tea is very bright in lemon/lime flavor. This tea is Yum-o!!!
This one has a mild orange taste. Very good I like to add honey to s
absolutely beautiful on a brisk morning. especially if you have a sore throat
Fantastic. Very bright but not too citrus-forward or fruity. Pleasant and refreshing. This will be a go-to daily drinker for me moving forward. Excited to try it as an iced tea in the summer.
Citron green will energize you with its citrusy and floral flavors. This blend has a juicy and tangy flavor, with a touch of sweetness. Citron green is a tea that is perfect for the spring season, when you want to wake up with a refreshing drink, and a sunny smile.
