This is a classic chamomile tea, very fragrant and delicious. Blends well with other teas, especially lavender and mint. Nice sip to end the day!
A beloved herb from Egypt's Nile River Valley. The aroma of freshly cut apples, calming floral-sweet flavor.

Pre-Steep: It was pretty amusing to see a bunch of whole chamomile flowers in the packet. As someone who drinks Chamomile blends regularly before bed to aid with sleep, I am used to finely ground up chamomile blends.
Post-Steep: Actually was not that bad! Definitely picked up a lot of honey notes, but unfortunately I think I am spoiled by my peach chamomile tea that pure chamomile tea is kinda weird tasting.
Today’s CommuniTEA offering was another pleasant surprise! The packet was filled with sweet little yellow flowers on stems. This is not tea! Knowing it’s herbal qualities, I wisely chose to save this for my evening cuppa. Steeped in my sweetest teacup at 195° for 7 minutes, the golden brew was sweet smelling. Sipping, I decided quickly to drink this one straight. The flavor was clean tasting, slightly herbal and almost minty. A nice pleasant evening sip!
I'm not a frequent chamomile drinker so don't have many others to compare to. This loose tea has lots of complete flowers with stems. Has a typical chamomile flavor, but way cleaner tasting than the supermarket bagged varieties that have had in the past.
Tastes like it smells, which isn’t my cup of tea. I like Jasmine tea, but not this. Wish I did like it
Not a big fan. I don’t hate it and I don’t love it..
I received this tea as part of the CommuniTEA box. However, as this is just camomile, there aren't any concerns about an individual portion being unbalanced.
Unfortunately, I...really can't say much about this tea. Camomile is one tea that I flat-out despise, despite having tried it in many forms and at many points. If a blend has camomile in it, I will immediately hate it. That being said, here's a few words I've got about it.
I steeped this tea for five minutes at 212 degrees. I was shocked that the tea had good color and smell at that point, and as I'm not a fan of camomile, I pulled the tea at that point. It was remarkably well-flavored for an herbal tea, which tends to taste of scented water at times for me, but the camomile had a strong taste that is fairly difficult to describe. It's a tea that you either love or hate in my opinion, and I am on the side of hating it, even if this batch was slightly less like smelly socks than other versions of camomile I've had in the past. Sugar brightened the flavor, almost giving it a fruity flavor, but the core was still, understandably, camomile.
The tea was delicious. I saved it for a night time work meeting and I was very calm and enjoyed the scent and sweet taste.
chamomile is probably my least favorite type of tea. However this fresh loose leaf is absolutely delicous. It had an almost nutty taste and no bad lingering aftertaste like other brands. Tea was smooth and is especially good with a little sweetener.
I love love love chamomile and am so glad Adagio offers it by itself -NOT mixed with a whole bunch of other hebs. The flavor is beautiful and wonderful, very soothing. I'll definitely be ordering more of this at some point to drink at night!
A great quality chamomile that tasted great through multiple steepings. I particularly enjoyed that it was whole flower rather than broken up pieces.
This is a nice chamomile! Chamomile isn't my favorite tea, but as far as they go, Adagio's version is a great one.
Absolutely delicious. You can tell this is a top quality herbal tea.
This is straight up chamomile tea; the whole flower & everything. Usually i enjoy this in blends. I cannot drink it straight up; bitter and floral but caffeine free blend for bedtime. Great quality ingredients but from a taste standpoint i had to drop a star. I sampled this Tea as part of the CommuniTEA Match Box.
Good quality chamomile. Not my favorite flavor no matter what the quality. Tastes better with milk, honey and cinnamon.
I always want to love chamomile more, but I just don't. As someone who is caffeine sensitive, I'm constantly searching for a good herbal.
This was nice, but a bit too light for me , a bit meh. I prefer chamomile in conjunction with lavendar, cornflower, and especially lemon balm. I guess I'm just not a purist.
Delicate, light floral flavor. Nothing harsh or bitter. Calming and relaxing.
Well, it's chamomile. It's hard to comment on chamomile, because either you like it or you don't. I don't personally love chamomile by itself and I prefer it blended with something else.
This tea seemed like it was good quality and there were many whole flowers, but I wouldn't choose to drink it.
It was great as far as chamomile tea goes. I'm more of a hearty black tea drinker so this gets me out of my comfort zone to try something new. A little honey helped me to enjoy it more. I wasn't too excited about the slight mint taste I got.
Most chamomile teas I’ve had came in form of crushed up chamomile, not the nice full flower that is in my Communitea packet. I love chamomile with honey when I need a moment to relax and unwind.
A relaxing floral tea that goes great with some honey. Not the biggest fan of chamomile but its still a great tea for anyone interested.
Beautiful yellow flowers, delightful aroma, great mouth feel. This is one of my favorite chamomile teas. So relaxing and refreshing.
It was nice to see the lovely, whole chamomile blossoms in my CommuniTEA packet. I really enjoyed this fragrant and soothing tea.
Great quality with large, full flowers. Nice floral aroma, with a sweet, full-bodied cup. Chamomile is a much loved classic for a reason, and this is a much better than usual taste of it.
Such a smooth, easy drinking tea. Tasted as part of the March '21 Communitea and already added to my next order. I see many evenings winding down with a cup of Chamomile in hand!
A really relaxing and lightly floral tea! It has a pleasant scent as well. Probably not my go-to on its own, but I definitely enjoy this in other blends. (212F for 8 minutes)
Lovely full flowers in my CommuniTea packet today. I enjoy chamomile most when it's part of blend...like Cha Cha or Foxtrot. However, it was nice with a drizzle of honey on its own. Very relaxing and soothing.
For me, chamomile is a relaxing tea when hot and this does not disappoint. Tiny yellow flowers bloom into an almost sweet beverage that soothes the stress of a busy day.
I am not a fan of any Chamomile tea. The smell alone is off-putting.
Chamomile, the flower of sleep. On their own with some honey, they're a relaxing and mellow tea. It's also one of my favorite before bed blend ingredients.
Great chamomile tea! I love how you can actually see the whole flowers that make up this tea. Good anytime, but especially nice in the evenings. Blends well with other flavors as well, such as in Foxtrot and Cha Cha. A staple of my tea collection.
Nice, subtle flavor. Makes a great cup to sip and relax.
I don't love the flavor of chamomile, especially by itself, but if I were to drink it, this would be the one I would want. It does have a better, cleaner flavor than other pre-bagged chamomile I've had. Having the whole (pretty) chamomile flower makes a big difference in the taste. That said, I still won't be drinking this by itself. (reviewed through CommuniTEA; 5 min @ 212F)
I'm glad I was 'forced' to try this in the CommuniTea as I've had a sample bag of chamomile that I was gifted a while back that has just been collecting dust that I'm realizing I should dig into it, as this was actually pretty decent. I thought I was burned out on chamomile from too much Sleepytime tea as a kid, but I actually enjoyed this light tasting herbal tea that was really smooth drinking with a touch of sweetener.
If nothing else, I can say that this is a chamomile tea of truly outstanding quality. The tea consists of a generous pile of whole, lightly dried flowers, some with the little white petals still attached! I stuck my nose in the packet to enjoy the sweet smell, and then promptly had a sneezing fit and developed a runny nose as the pollen activated my allergy. Getting older is no fun in some ways... I didn't used to be this sensitive.
Taking a small sip at around the 5-minute mark, I'm already marveling at the strength of the flower-y, apple-y taste of the tisane. I can see why my mother disliked it so strongly - there's an earthiness under the perfume that some might not care for. I would liken this tea to cilantro. Some people are going to take to it immediately (like Mr. Fusion), some will acquire a taste after repeated exposure (like me), and some are just going to hate it immediately and never try it again (like my mother).
I typically mix chamomile with green tea because I find the flavors complement each other nicely. It's really lovely on its own too, though. I'm glad the communiTEA gave me an opportunity to give this a shot on its own; and in my next reverse care package, I'll send my mother a couple of cups' worth of 70-30 raspberry green tea with chamomile to see if she likes that better. (10 mins @ 212 F, no additions)
Chamomile isn't for me. Yech! I don't like anything about this tea - not the smell, not the taste. I'm making a cup of the chocolate raspberry tea in the pretty tin to make up for this! (ed note: she means ripe for romance) (7 mins @ 212 F, no additions)
Chamomile is my favorite ingredient in a nighttime tea. I usually keep some on hand to blend with different ratio and combinations of lemongrass, lavender, mint etc. so seeing chamomile flowers in my communitea packet was a happy treat 😀
This tea is okay by itself. It needs a little honey to tone down the eating-flowers-from-the-garden taste. I use the 40 winks to go to sleep so this just tasted rather bland on its own
I recently got a large bag of this and I have been liking it more and more. It blends well with the lemongrass tea and Bella Luna Blue, but I also enjoy it on its own.
Better at bedtime, always calming and relaxing. Good for sleepy time
Today’s communiTea is one of my favorite chillin or bedtime teas. A simple yet smooth, fruity tasting chamomile, served with a tad of Adagio honey. One interesting and fun tidbit, when I emptied my adagio packet, it consisted of whole, tiny yellow chamomile buds, not much dust. Eeee, so cute! (steeped 5mins @200F)
Every now and then I enjoy a cup of chamomile tea. This is a nice one.
A bunch of teeny fuzzy yellow balls on stems were seen in my communiTEA packet this morning. Wonderfully sweet floral aromas were noted.
Honey flavors were mild from start to finish. Very faint and mild mint flavors were noted at finish. This fragrant base tea stands on its own as a very smooth sipping tea that induces tranquility. Blends nicely with others.
This tea contains big, full chamomile flowers. The liquor steeps lighter than commercial chamomile tea bags with a more subtle flavor as well. Compared to freshly dried chrysanthemum tea, it tastes much more musty to me. I don't get intrinsic sweetness, it is more of an earthy, woody, and smooth taste that just calls for honey and then takes on the flavors of that additive. It's not bad, but not great. I wouldn't mind adding this to other flavors, but it's not something I would be drinking on its own.
I always think to myself that I don’t like chamomile, and then I drink it, and I think ‘that’s not so bad’. With a little bit of sweetener, it’s not so bad. As with all ‘good for you’ blends, I try to give my reviews based not so much on what it tastes like, but what it does. This is pure chamomile. As a bedtime tea, it’s supposed to help with sleep and relaxation. It’s also for inflammation, cramps, blood sugar and cold symptoms... so this tea is going to be a good test for everything chamomile is supposed to do. It’s nice that it’s offered here, solo.
Favorite Chamomile I have found so far. Soothing and delicious.
I have always found chamomile to be an odd flavor, and I have unfortunately not yet acquired the taste for it. However, I did like this better than the other chamomile teas that I have tried previously.
I love Chamomile tea and this is by far my favorite!!
Such a lovely tea. This is my favorite tea or get from here.
These were perfect little flowers. The tea was super yummy.
