This is one of the best green tea that ever ever tasted I love the citrusy taste and I love the fact that it's green tea. After my first cup of coffee in the morning this is my go-to drink the remainder of the day
Chinese green tea with the delicate flavors of lemon and lime. An Adagio favorite, refreshing hot and iced.

I smelled and tasted the orange in this tea immediately. I added a decent amount of honey, which blended nicely. Very good cup of tea.
This was a very pleasant tea. Light, fruity, refreshing, and with a slight citrus tart. Just a subtle amount of green flavor.
The flavor was subtle but good. It’s not over I would buy for myself but I liked it
The citrus flavors are not overpowering and the green tea vegetal flavors really come through. Nice refreshing cup. The flavors work well together, but doesn’t have me rushing to drink another cup. It’s good, but I don’t love it.
This is pleasant, but I don't think lemon green tea are my thing. The lemon is nicely refreshing, not overpowering or fake cleaner tasting which is great!
The green tea and citrus flavors are nicely balanced.
Not a bad flavored green tea. There’s a subtle fruity to it that’s pleasant. (July CommuniTEA)
I am not generally a green tea fan, and sadly this was not an exception. It was OK, but I don't think it brought anything to the cup that other teas don't do better. I drank this tea with the CommuniTea on July 5, 2020.
It is a good green tea. The citrus flavor is very light.
All the greens I’ve tried here have been good, I like this one too... the lemon lime flavor is very delicate.
This is a lemony citrus green tea, very light flavor but good. If you like this one, give their seasonal lemon meringue green or their A-tisket-a-tasket tea a try.
Light green tea with light citrus scent. I would like to see more acidity to bring out the citrus.
This one is a light, refreshing green. The citrus adds a little bit of a kick, but isn't too strong or overwhelming.
This is an enjoyable citrus flavored green tea. Light and refreshing.
Very pleasant and refreshing orange flavor. I would buy this again.
It's a great tea. The description is pretty on the money -- very citrusy and grassy. If you already like green teas, this is probably an interesting one to try.
I really enjoyed this tea. The lemon flavor wasn’t overpowering and worked well with the green tea. It would make a great iced tea.
I have had many flavour teas and find them weird tasting. This is a really nice lemon tea. Very creamy mouth feel.
Nothing really stood out for me with this one
My problems started with the green tea base. Its looks similar to sencha which is a big yick to me. The lemon isn't very obvious hot unless you put in sweetener, I'm sorry but that's the fact. Because of that the iced tastes better but my tongue was biased by that time came around
A soft yet bright flavor- the citrus isn't THERE but it accompanies the green tea nicely.
To say it in another way, don't drink this if you're craving straight citrus, as the citrus flavors are more an accompaniment to the green tea. If you're not a fan of the whole vegetalness that many green teas usually have then this might be a nice inbetween.
Not too much orange or lemon for me. Kind of nice really.
I have never really cared for citrus drinks: I don't like orange juice, lemonade, or limeade. I don't even put lemon in my iced tea. But I was pleasantly surprised when I drank this one as a hot tea. The citrus was not overpowering like I was afraid it would be. This would be a good choice on a 'sick' day when you need a healthy, healing, and soothing tea.
I enjoyed this tea. I added a scant bit of sugar and a pinch of Ceylon cinnamon and I can’t say I taste any fruity pebbles. Great as iced tea on these hot days
Delicious tea, I love the delicate flavor of the green tea paired with the citrus.
While I may have steeped a little too long, it had a sharp earthy aftertaste I couldn’t get behind. The initial flavor with the citrus notes was delicious. I recommend steeping for only two minutes.
I cold-brewed it for a few hours. It made a lightly citrusy iced tea. Very refreshing and enjoyable!
This green tea does have a lighter taste, possibly due to the faint fruity notes. Green tea is still not my preference. .
Citrus and green tea is such a common pairing. This one falls short of what I would expect. The citrus is not too strong, but it tastes like lemon Pez rather than something natural that lifts the tea flavor. I would choose another citrus green tea over this one everytime.
There is something about Orange or Lemon teas that gives me a 'Fruity Pebbles' vibe. Same with this tea only with a strong green tea flavor. I sampled this tea as part of the CommuniTEA (July box).
It's difficult to identify the particular citrus fruits that make up this tea, it's just a general citrusy taste. The citrus flavor is evenly balanced with the flavor of the green tea, so one doesn't overwhelm the other. Tastes great iced.
This tea is light and refreshing. The citrus flavor is not overwhelming.
I sampled this tea as part of the July CommuniTEA. This was a simple yet delicate tea. Clean citrus is the predominant flavor. The green tea is somewhat lost but lingers on under the citrus.
This was surprising. In general I don’t care for green tea. This was so light I was able to enjoy it.
Very refreshing and light. I drank it hot without sugar and it was wonderful. I am used to a stronger taste from a green tea, but enjoyed the light brightness of this tea. It is a perfect tea for a refreshing summer drink.
Nice citrus aromas were noted in the bag. Aromas and flavors were very mild in the cup when hot, but presented themselves very nicely when warm. The orange and lemon blended real well together with a mild citric pucker. The green tea was pleasant and bittersweet with a nice zingy aftertaste on the tongue. A very refreshing tea all-around. A little sugar was added to bring down the light acidity of the fruit. This blend reminded me of the lemon meringue green version minus the creamy meringue. (3 mins @ 175F)
Great green tea. Just enough citrus flavour to give it some depth. The citrus isn’t easily identifiable but just a hint. 2 minute steep with water that was boiled and cooled for 5 minutes to avoid burning the leaves. Hoping it will stand up to multiple steeps.
Not bad but then again not my favorite. I like a bit bolder flavors.
A subtle green tea that has hints on citrus. Isn’t too overpowering, just a nice lite flavor.
Good, not overwhelming citron green. I don’t get too much Zest which is good, but it’s strong enough that I do prefer it iced
Wonderful hot or iced with a lovely sweet citrus taste that is enhanced by honey.
This makes a lovely crisp and refreshing iced tea.
it's a good tea, but truthfully I prefer other green tea blends to this one, it just was... average.
I am big fan of the citrus green tea and typically love citrus flavors with my green teas, so I was really disappointed that I didn't like this one. The lemon peels in this blend for some reason are overpowering. I would stick with the citrus green!
Lovely light green tea with a mild, bright flavor.
Very mild flavor but tasty. For iced tea, will need to make stronger
The best everyday tea. Smoith green tea with just enough citrus flavor.
we liked this tea. It had a nice citrus flavor without it being completely overpowering!
This tea smells fresh and citrusy when you open the package. I usually make my own blend of 1/2 tea and 1/2 flavored tea because I like the tea flavor to be the primary flavor and the add-in flavors as undertones. No exception here. I paired the Citron Green with a green/black factory blend from another tea company (sorry Adagio--maybe you can recommend one for me!). The citrus and green tea flavor (Citron Green) complements the green/black tea nicely. I do drink it with sugar and milk. The nice thing about this flavored citrus tea is that you can use milk without it curdling. I love this combination.
