I have received this as part of my ComminiTEA box. Since I've never been a fan of drinking or eating anything with rose essence in it, for me, this tea is a little off-putting. I feel like I'm drinking a rose-scented eau de toilette. If you like the taste of rose, then this is the tea for you. However, I'll pass on buying it. It's just not for me.

'Lychee Rose Green' is a very pleasant tea. It smells very sweet, but the taste is mild.
★★★★☆
Wow! You’ve done it again, Adagio! This was my CommuniTea today and I’d have 100% never tried it otherwise. I didn’t LOVE it, but was surprised that it was actually pretty good, considering I don’t like floral teas at all. Not my thing, but a good surprise today. The rose wasn’t overpowering to me, and I do love green tea, lychee, and melon, so no complaints here!

I've been wanting to try this one so was glad to see it in the CommuniTEA box for August--really enjoyed it! Needed no sweetener. A nice floral but fruity cup.
★★★★☆
Part of the August 2020 CommuniTEA box. I’m not familiar with lychee, so this is an interesting foray. Pungent but pleasant.
★★★★★
I love this! The lychee and rose are wonderful together. I am eager to try it iced as well!
★★★☆☆
Not sure what lychee should taste like as I’ve never tried it on its own but rose flavored tea is not something I would purchase or drink on a daily basis. That being said, it was ok and I thank Adagio for giving me the opportunity to try it as part of the August CommuniTEA.

Not a strong tea, but the lychee adds something nice to this.
★★★★☆
I sampled this tea as part of the August CommuniTEA. This was an interesting sipper for sure. The green tea undertones are not lost, yet the fruit flavors come through nicely. I would like, perhaps, a little more floral notes but I’m not sure how that would impact the overall impression.

Normally I hate teas with rose in it, but this wasn't terrible. Unusual but good fruity flavor. Surprisingly I liked it better hot than iced.

I have learned to like lychee over the years.
This smelled horrible in the packet and only tastes slightly better than it smells.
Maybe I don't like lychee flavor, on my the fruit. But wow, this was an unpleasant surprise.
★★★☆☆
This came in my August CommuniTEA box, but I already owned it as well. It's not a terrible blend, but the extreme floral profile is not my favorite. It's not a tea I ever reach for when selecting from my collection. I actually was planning on passing my full bag along to my brother-in-law, since I didn't care for this myself, but he was a big fan when he tried it while visiting.
If you like strong floral flavors, this may be up your alley, but if a little bit of rose goes a long way for you, this may be one to pass on.

Summer roses 🥀 in a teacup. Personally, I loved the rose floral smell upon opening the packet. A delicate floral green tea, perfect for an August morning. Lychee enhances the rose notes. Sometimes a nice light green tea is the perfect way to start my day! ☀️
★★★☆☆
This is the CommuniTEA of the day- Steeped 2.5 min @ 180. First sip I immediately thought of cut grass with some rose thrown in. This was more palatable with a dash of sweetener.

I love this tea. It's sweet and creamy and really delicious.
★★★★★
A touch of sweet and tart, well balanced, easy drinking green tea. I could see myself drinking this one daily. The rose and lychee make for a more sophisticated and interesting green tea option. yum!
★★★★☆
I'm not huge on anything with rose in it, but this wasn't too bad cold brewed with a little agave!
★★★☆☆
Not The best. It's not good, not bad, just kind of there. There's definitely a fruity/floral taste, but it's just alright.

I enjoyed this tea. Not enough to re-purchase but enjoyed the cup.
★★★★★
The combination of rose and lychee is wonderful in this tea. It is a very floral tea, which may be off-putting for some people, but I'm a fan! This tea is also naturally sweet, which counteracts the bitterness of the green tea.

Don't smell this tea before you drink it unless you really like inhaling roses! That being said, once brewed the smell is still extremely floral forward which for me was a little terrifying because I'm not a fan of floral teas (sometimes it just tastes like you're drinking perfume). But the flavor is mild and the lychee gives the green tea a bit of sweetness which also helps mellow out the pungent rose. I'm usually a fan of green teas but this one isn't my favorite.
★★★☆☆
Smell of the dry tea was not pleasant but it was drinkable once steeped. I think I'm just not a fan of rose in my tea.
★★★★★
I really enjoyed this tea. Great flavour with the mellow green tea. The dried smell made me wonder but the taste of rose and lychee was wonderful and improved as the tea cooled. Adding to my wish list.

The smell of this out of the bag was really bad. The taste was surprisingly milder and better than I expected, but not for me. A fruity rose flavor.

Generally speaking, I don't enjoy green tea so I didn't expect to like this at all. That said, while I would never buy it because it does still have that hint of grassiness that I dislike about green tea in general, I was pleasantly surprised that I taste more than that grassy flavor. The florals come out nicely and the lychee cuts that grassy flavor down quite a lot!

I won’t be as blunt as Woodie but the aroma is less than pleasant. I added a few clear rock sugar crystals and let it cool down before taking a second sip. It was better and I can taste the appeal to some but it’s not for me.

When I saw this I had to have it! I love everything about it and hoped that it tasted as I hoped and I was right. It s one of the best teas I ve had on here.

i really liked this one! i'm a fan of lychee and this tea did not disappoint me
★★★★☆
This is a great fruit flavored green tea. I taste and smell more lychee than rose. I was hoping for it to be more floral but that's ok. The reason I dropped 1 star is, I was expecting a stronger flavor and this is weaker than other rose/lychee teas I had in the past.

I love all three of these flavors and expected to love a tea that blends them together. I don't enjoy it hot but I found drinking it iced more tolerable. It's very fragrant but when brewed the green tea doesn't have a strong presence leaving the rose and lychee flavors to battle it out with neither winning.
★★★★★
This taste AMAZING. I ve had a tea bag version of this from another company but this is just so much higher quality its not even funny. my new fruity green tea go-to for sure!
★☆☆☆☆
Oof. I did NOT like this one. I ended up giving it away to a friend of mine. It was bitter and...strange.
★★★★★
Simple Delicious! I had to order a second pouch even though I am not done my current one. It's the kind of tea that you want to drink in a peaceful forest. Absolutely LoVe!
★★★☆☆
Wouldn't necessarily buy again - but it does taste pretty good. Sweet and a bit tangy, yet very refreshing. Worth a sample at the very least.
★★★★★
I love this tea! Both the rose and lychee smells are prominent. It has a natural sweetness when cold brewed and is mild and flavorful when hot.
★★★★☆
This tea smells amazing, like tropical fruit and green grapes. However I feel like not much of that comes through in the flavor, it mostly just tastes like a floral green tea with a bit of fruit. It also gets bitter really quickly, so I prefer to cold brew it overnight which makes it smooth and very slightly sweet. It is pretty refreshing for hot weather, but I don't think the lychee flavor is strong enough for me.

Love the fragrance of this tea. A lovely treat.

This is really good! I was expecting to taste more rose than lychee but it was the other way around. Unexpected but yummy!

I only tried this hot. But I thought the Lychee flavor was a bit lacking.
★★★★☆
This tea is very tasty it's nice and fruity as soon as you open up, and you can really smell the lychee. this tea is perfect chilled with a little bit of honey it makes for the perfect summer drink. I recommend steeping for one or two minutes longer if you want a stronger flavor because the flavor is very light.

Great floral scent with a mild taste. Great for a mid-day pick up. Drank by itself and made it as iced tea with a bit of honey, tasty both ways!

My boyfriend is OBSESSED! We will definitely be ordering more!
★★★★☆
This tea is very fruity. I didn't really taste the rose, but the tangy fruit tastes is a wonderful addition to the green tea

Very, very floral tasting. Ok as a 'once in a while' tea, but not something I feel like I could drink daily.
★★★★☆
Just a heads up, I don't usually drink green tea. With that being said, it tasted like hot leaf juice lol. I gave it time to cool off a bit more, n it tasted much better. Still not my cup of tea, but it wasn't all bad.

Lovely flavor tea. Might be a tad strong for some (my boyfriend described it as a punch to your senses).
★★★☆☆
Lychee rose? More like peachy rose. I would never have guessed this was supposed to be lychee flavored if I didn't already know. This one is skippable to me.
★★★★☆
I love lychee. I love rose. I like most green teas. The aroma is almost overpowering, but the lychee flavors have a sort of artificial taste that I struggle with. Overall, it is a nice tea and I will likely order it again in the hotter seasons.
★★★★★
The lychee and rose flavors work together PERFECTLY in this cup. Very fragrant and refreshing, and I love the almost tropical flavor the lychee gives. Highly recommend either sweetened or unsweetened!
★★★★★
My favorite for iced green tea. I love the subtle rose flavor
