Smells amazing. Good flavor but with any berry tea if you aren’t careful it can become more sour than sweet
Blackberry, blueberry and strawberry flavors party playfully in your cup like a rich berry compote with a dollop of cream.

Smells amazing. Good flavor but with any berry tea if you aren’t careful it can become more sour than sweet
really tasty, i love the composition of flavours. a bit tart, a bit creamy. the only thing i’m not a huge fan of is how sweet this tea is without sweetener, but i’m sure it’s perfect for those with a bigger sweet tooth than i!
This is a good tea, and we especially enjoyed it iced. I do find it to be a little overly complex in flavor, and it tasted somewhat artificial to me. The berry flavor was, ironically, weaker than I expected. It was still good, but I prefer the simplicity of 'raspberry patch' with a splash of actual cream.
Very strong and creamy flavor, I enjoy mixing it with the rooibos vanilla.
Sweet and tangy, yes, but a little astringent and cloying. Does well as an addition to other teas, however.
I drank this tea with some milk and honey; I would compare the experience to having a cozy cup of good hot cocoa, but with fruit taste instead of chocolate. Absolute does taste like berry compote, and is a nice comforting drink!
This tea is phenomenally tangy but it has to steep at LEAST 10 minutes. I added some vanilla whipped cream to mine and it was an amazing dessert-like treat!
Super fruity and balanced with the cream flavor, this is a perfect 'dessert' type tea for me! Loved every sip.
This was a tart mess, even when I brewed it weaker. I couldn't drink this without my entire face puckering up, and I am someone who likes eating limes like oranges. Could not taste creme notes at all. Smells great though.
Tasted like berries and cream! Just wish it wasn't so light in flavor.
This tea is delicious. It takes a little more time to steep than most other teas to really get the flavor, but the wait is worth it. It is just the right amount of sweetness. I personally love adding a little bit of dairy free milk to give it a boosted creaminess.
I love this tea! The combination of tangy fruit and cream flavorings are amazing. I will definitely order more!
The tea is pretty good but not my favorit. I got it in a comuniTea and im not sure i personally would buy it unless it was for a presant.
I steeped this tea for ten minutes, and I loved the rich berry flavors. Excellent with a bit of the new raw honey for herbals and some cream.
Very strong tart berry flavor. I'd recommend using a bit of sweetener.
This one is definitely not my cup of tea. Too sweet & fruity for me.
Very sweet, with a pleasantly creamy aroma! Makes for a good dessert tea.
I actually got this for my mother for Mother's Day, but it was luckily a CommuniTea tea as well. The flavor is literally berry, and I love it a lot. Also that color of the tea is absolutely beautiful! The cream flavor is a little too subtle to my tastes though, so that was my only detractor.
I love this tea with a little milk to bring out the creme. Yum
Has a sour tang on the end, like eating an unripe berry - gives it a very authentic taste
Great berry flavor, I find it best enjoyed iced. The cream component could be stronger.
This tea is it’s nice. I used honey which tamed the fruit just the right amount. I think this tea would be a nice summer iced tea.
Wow! Normally herbal teas aren’t my favorite because they can smell GREAT and then have such a mild flavor that I’m left feeling shorted. Berry Cream Compote did not disappoint. The fruity aroma was amazing, and the longer steep time (I did the full 10 minutes) really lent itself to a full-bodied flavor. I was a bit wary that it would be too sweet, but even with the creamy notes the tang of the berries still came through. I’d love to try it on ice!
This tea tastes really similar to the fruit tea that you can buy as teabags at the grocery store.
This tastes and smell wonderful. I just wish it wasn't so tart
Smells like fruit loops? Or maybe fruity zebra gum? Something familiar that is fruity vanilla-y, in the bag. Brewed it was a nice fruity tea (didn't get too much cream, but that's okay). Would probably be nice iced, but was good hot too.
I drank this today with tea today with CommuniTEA. But it’s already one I keep in my cabinet. It’s delicious iced or hot and is a great replacement for kool-Aid for the kids.
Surprisingly delicious! I'm not usually into berry flavors but this one was very good!
The berry can get cloying if you let it steep too long, but the creme flavor helps balance this.
Enjoyable for a tea break, nice mild, sweet, fruity flavor.
This tea smells heavenly and the color is beautiful, but on the first sip, it was extremely tart. After adding some sugar, it was no longer lip-puckering sour and was a smooth, sweet drink with a very fruity flavor. The promised 'cream' flavor never came through, which was a little disappointing as it would have complimented the rest wonderfully.
I love all Adagio red fruit teas and Berry Creme Compote is not an exception. It's refreshing and delicious!
A lovely tasting tea! Bursts of flavors from all the different teas, with the added bonus of cream flavoring! This would be a great tea for anyone who is a bit apprehensive about tea or as a refreshing cold brew.
Not an early morning tea, but still pleasant. Quite tart, so definitely a good way to wake up, I suppose.
The color is stunningly beautiful. I was looking forward to the first taste. That turned out questionable. Certainly a fruity flavor but no depth to the taste. Sweetener enhanced the fruity flavor but I'm still not a fan. Nothing wrong with it, it's just not for me.
Woah!! 😳 Way too sour for my taste. Aroma was very nice out of the bag and after steep, but tasted like un-sweetened Kool-Aid even with 1/2 tsp sugar. I didn’t want to use any more sugar resulting in a syrup. Second steep wasn’t done. Had a decaf Espresso instead to clear the sour from my mouth. (5 mins @ 200F)
Berry Creme Compote packs a pretty punch! The rose hips and hibiscus almost overpower the other flavors, so do be prepared for tart. Getting more creme scent than flavor, but it's in there.
I was interested to see how this would compare to Cupid's Cup -- strangely, I think I like the aroma a bit better and the flavor a bit less. It's not bad, but it's a bit sour for my taste. The scent is truly mouthwatering and promises a dollop of whipped cream flavor that the taste kind of fails to follow through on. Bit disappointed.
Delicious! I steeped it the full 10 minutes and the taste was light and fruity. I added a little fruit tisane honey and it's even better! Will have to order more to play with.
My family and I enjoyed this tea a lot! It has the perfect blend of fruity and sweet without feeling like you are sipping something sugary. It's a delicious tea for a rainy day!
This one has a berry quality to it, maybe more raspberry than any of the others, but it just tasted kinda weak and almost like flavored syrup added to water. Maybe with some lemonade it would be good, or if you used more to make a more concentrated flavor, I'm not sure what happened, but it just wasn't working for me. Maybe the creme flavor part of it mellowed the berry richness down, not sure exactly. Not bad, just not sure what happened that made it just kinda meh for me.
Love the sweet tart berry blend with a hint of cream. Delicious. A great fragrance also. Perfect to sip.
Almost as good as my grandmother's cobbler... almost:)
The smell of this tea makes the entire house smell like I’m making blueberry pancakes. This is a new favorite!
Smells sweet, but is actually quite tart. Has a gorgeous ruby hue and juicy berry flavor.
A great tea. A little strong in the compote side, but still good
This tea is amazing iced! I m addicted! It will be my go to tea for the summer! YUM :)
Just as the name says, this tea is fantastic. Very fruity and light. I would use a dash more than the recommended, but I like a bit stronger tea.
Best tea ever!!! Sweet and pretty color and makes me feel relaxed.
YUM! For me, it's the perfect amount of flavor with a light sweetness, and a good berry flavor. I'll definitely order this one again
