When I opened the tin the smell was frickin awesome! At first I kinda wanted to eat it. This tea is alright in my book, the citrus flavor is there, but not overpowering, which is a good thing. very nice tea
Chinese green tea with the delicate flavors of lemon and lime. An Adagio favorite, refreshing hot and iced.

This tea effing rocks!! Aside from it being a green tea, which automatically makes it awesome, it also has (in my opinion) a distinct smell that reminds me of Fruity Pebbles! YUM!! Does anyone else smell that?
I like this tea alot, as do my friends. This is a tea that with a bit of honey satisfies my craving for soda.
I don't quite get the 'froot loops' smell that others have mentioned—Earl Grey Bravo smells more like that to me. Regardless, this does have a very strong lemon-lime scent. As usual, I expected the tea to be overwhelmed by the flavor, but I found the citrus to balance quite nicely. A tasty tea that makes me feel summery.
I even resteeped for five minutes and it made a good, while noticeably weaker, cup.
One of the few Greens that I really enjoy. The citrus is noticeable but not dominating, just as it should be.
Oh I love this one. It has a very smooth flavor that isn't too strong, but just a hint of citrus. Really really nice green tea!
I thought Citron Green made a great, light/refreshing morning tea. The citrus is just pronounced enough to be citrusy, but not bitter or sour.
I was actually really disappointed in this. It seemed very bitter, regardless of how long I brewed it, and at what temperature. No idea why it has such a bitter taste, but I definitely tossed the box.
This is one of my favorite teas. Very refreshing after meals or pick me up during the day.
This tea smells amazing, and also has a very nice flavor. It's the first green tea I've gotten from Adagio. It's vastly superior than the green teas I get from the grocery store.
I love this sweetened with sugar and chilled over ice. A great summer afternoon tea.
I love this stuff. Very mild lemony flavor layered on a nice light green. Yum.
I'm a tea newbie. Just placed my order with Adagio and received it in 6 days! I opened all 7 tins and the smell of the Citron Green was delicious. I quickly made a cup and was not dissappointed! It is fantastic! I'm a southern girl so I have to have a little natural sugar with my tea. It took me a minute to place the taste that it reminded me of but I finally identified it - lemon drops; the sweet part, not the tart part! Yep, the hard candy. So yummy!
Wonderful smell. Citrus flavor strength is just right, it doesn't overpower the natural flavor of the green tea.
Citron Green is simply wonderful! It is also a great tea for people who are just starting to drink tea, especially people who might be put off by the earthy tastes of many traditional green teas.
It is easy to understand why this tea is so popular. Every person who tried this for the first time commented that it was "outstanding, excellent,wow", as their comments. This tea is high in phytonutrients and anti-oxidants.
I first tried this in the green tea sampler, and it was the only one that I liked enough to order more (I'm not really a fan of greens though, so yeah). It's a nice breakfast or dessert tea when I want something sweet without having to sweeten it at all.
This is my favorite tea on the site to buy in bulk. The only tea I like better that's available on Adagio is gyokuro, and that is definitely too pricey for bulk purchases. Nice green tea foundation that smells like citrus without an overpowering citrus taste.
This is great affordable tea. I bought this as a sampler and then I loved it so much I got a 4 oz tin. The lemon flavor is a lovely touch.
This is my favorite green tea! I drink it everyday. Perfect to blend with a little bit of any regular (non-flavor) black tea. If you are new to green tea, this is a must-have option!
An excellent green tea. It has a great citrus scent and taste to it. I use this for my iced tea blend, and it works well. Not too strong but not too weak.
You can really taste a pleasant citrus aftertaste, and it's a great bold flavor. I give this to most of my friends during the wintertime
My favorite tea that I have ordered so far, great balanced taste. Every time I come back to ordering this is the first thing added to my cart.
It was pretty good, but not as flavorful as I expected. Next time I'll try it with a lemon wedge to see if it brings out the lemon/lime flavors more.
I love this tea. The scent is amazing, and it tastes wonderful.
If you enjoy green teas, I definitely recommend Citron green tea. It's amazing quality green tea blended with just a hint of citrus tang. I've ordered many teas from Adagio since but I always come back to this one.
Very yummy tea with just a sprinkler of sweetner. It smells very refreshing too. Doesn't have an artificial citrus taste. Will definitely reorder.
If you are looking for a strong, citrus flavor, then try this tea. I thought there was a bit too much tartness for my liking. I prefer the apricot green tea... great flavor without the tartness of the citrus.
This tea smells like the lemonhead candies, but tastes more like fruity pebbles. Simply delicious!
My all time favorite. This is a daily drinker for me. Unbrewed, the tea leaves smell wonderful. Brewed, The nice citrus taste is just right, not over-powering.
This is my favorite flavored tea. I can drink it mornings or afternoons,through all the seasons. Great citrus flavor. Don't over brew it and make sure your water is not too hot. This tea will will give you a perfect cuppa everytime.
Very nice refreshing tea. I cannot wait until the summer comes so I can try this iced. The citrus is not overbearing at all (actually, it's maybe a bit too light? I'm not sure, I'll have to experiment with it more). I recommend this tea!
We really enjoyed this somewhat robust green tea with its fruity overtones. Made for a wonderful iced tea, too.
The citrus is overpowering to me. I recommend this to anyone who prefers a stronger flavored green tea.
A tasty but not memorable tea for me. Nice, light and refreshing. Good for summer.
Nice subtle citrus flavor that isn't over powering at all.
This is a definite 'go-to' tea. It's well balanced and I've enjoyed experimenting blending other teas with it, such as casablanca twist or gunpowder.
Oh my goodness, this tea is great! I love green teas and enjoy them with just a little bit of honey to sweeten it. I will definitely be ordering more soon.
Very nice light tea. Taste is more subtle than aroma. This is an excellent tea for somebody just getting into green teas. I agree with other reviewers on this one - excellent.
I really like this tea, it smells more citrus than it tastes, but it's excellent if you like just a touch of lemon.
This is awesome! The tea smells like fruit loops when the lid comes off but it has a light fruity taste.
I got this for my husband. I think it smells and taste like Trix cereal but he loves the citrusy flavor.
I'm not a fan of green tea but I like this a lot. It's not overly grassy and makes me think more of lemonade than tea. Great chilled.
This is a fantastic tea! It is delicate when hot, but if you make a good sweetened iced tea with this you will get an amazing pitcher of the most refreshing and tasteful brew yet!
The citrus keeps the tea fresh and adds a nice, sharp note to the green tea body.
Not my favorite flavored green but if your into citrus, this is it.
This is my fovorite Green tea. I plan on ordering more of this.
The citron taste is subtle but great. This is my new favorite flavored green.
Excellent light crisp flavor and a beautiful color to match.
Very flavorful. One of the best blends I've had. The citrus notes complement the green very well.
