★★★☆☆
Not bad. A little too light for my taste, even with extra tea.
This fruity tisane will have you laying back and hanging loose while its zesty pineapple essence dances on your palette.

Not bad. A little too light for my taste, even with extra tea.
The smell of this tea is amazing, but the taste wasn t as strong as the smell. It was good, especially as an iced tea. I think it would make a good tea/cocktail drink.
I love this tea. It is pineapply and sweet. The pineapple is just right. sometimes it can be quite strong, but this is a very pleasant tea. I like it hot, haven't tried it iced yet.
I love pineapple! This tea was very nice with a strong pineapple flavor! Will buy again!
Great Taste and was refreshing chilled. Would suggest using it with an Asian dish or maybe Hawaiian chicken, etc.
Reminds me of the teavana kona pineapple. I like it hot or cold, brewed with green tea.
Kind of weak taste. Not a favorite by any means and wouldn't recommend it
Average... It's a decent tea... you have to brew it strong because it has a really light taste.
My daughters really enjoyed this tea. They said it had a very nice pineapple flavor.
I love this tea. The smell is so tropical and delicious and it definitely hits the spot on sweetness.
The smell is on par with that of the blood orange tea, meaning that it is absolutely strong and wonderful! The taste was weaker than I was hoping for, BUT adding a little bit of sweetener, and serving it cold definitely helped bring out the flavor more.
Very nice pineapple flavor. I like it best for iced tea.
Fantastic substitute for Teavana s Pineapple Kona Pop! Amazing iced! This will be a regular one for me.
Great mixed with blueberry for a refreshing iced tea!
It might have just been the sample I received, but I got mostly apple pieces and couldn't get much flavor out of this tea no matter how strongly I brewed it. Perhaps it's better in larger quantities?
The smell brings me back to when I went to Hawaii and sampled some freshly picked pineapple. However upon testing it reminds me of fruit loops. Definitely not my favorite but it's not bad either, just not quite what I expected.
Wow! I usually hate teas that have lemongrass on them. But this tea is perfect. Would be great iced.
The aroma of pineapples smells so goood!! Very refreshing
I found this tea looking for a copycat of the Pineapple Kona Pop Starbucks used to sell. This is really good and very similar, I just wish it was a little stronger.
Sort of a subtle hint of pineapple, definitely not as much as I expected which was surprising. Still really good though.
I don t know what I was expecting, but it wasn t this. It s a bit cloying and very artificial tasting. That s not to say I expected this tea to taste like biting into a fresh pineapple because I didn t. I just didn t expect it to taste like artificial pineapple candy. I LOVE pineapple, so I had some expectation that I would at least not hate it, but I m very disappointed. Even without sweetener, it s cloying. I m not going to finish my sample.
I didn't think I'd like hot pineapple - and I didn't. I got this to drink iced. I don't ice any tea but this is an exception. Good stuff. I probably wouldn't buy a large amount but it was good while I had it.
It smells very strongly of pineapple/tropical flavor, but it has a very strong taste of lemongrass as well.
When I opened it I could smell a strong delicious pineapple scent! The flavor delivers! Very strong pineapple and fruit taste while still being crisp and delicious!! I drank it iced and I will definitely buy more!!
The smell is hardcore on this tea--definitely a punch to the face. The taste isn't as strong as the smell, but that's a good thing: it might taste artificial otherwise. The lemongrass is a tad strong for me but not disgusting or anything. All in all, it makes a great fruity alternative to juices and sodas.
This was a nice surprise. There was a bit of sweetness with the pineapple and a hint of floral.
We like this tea. It is a great fruity summer kind of tea.
The first cup I used a darker color cane sugar and I don't quite like the taste of the apple. The second cup I used a lighter color cane sugar different brand from the first one and the taste of the tea is lighter than the first cup. I let the tea sit in the hot boiling water for about 6-8 hrs slowly steeping the flavor out
I've tried this tea mixed with Silver Needle and another time with Peach Serenity and both times it's been beautiful!
Peach Serenity already has some pineapple in it, but adding Kona Pineapple amps ups the flavor without being sickly sweet which is super delicious. When mixed with the Silver Needle it gave just a subtle hint of its pineapple flavor without being overpowering. Very refreshing!
So sweet! I had an infuser snafu and ended up dropping the whole thing in a cup, it was amazing that way too!
The pineapple essence reminds me of the islands and the fresh taste of Hawaii.
I wasnt sure of this at first but like the other fruity teas you can really taste the fruit, it s good with a little sugar though but not to much.
This is my favorite tea so far! It is crisp and fruity. It's a nice cup of tea both warm and cold. The aroma is amazing and at 8min it had a medium flavor to it. Just the right amount of pineapple. Absolutely love it
nice. really enjoy. much flavuer. could drink iced but why?
Crisp, light, & refreshing pineapple flavor. Kind of want to try this one iced, I feel like it would be great!
Love this tea but I do wish I was able to taste a bit more pineapple. But overall, great tea.
Yummy! Just the right amount of tropical pineapple! I just got this tonight and had my first cup. I used a heaping teaspoon and steeped for 8min. Resulted in yummy but somewhat light flavor. I might increase the amount of tea a little next time. This tea is not sour at all. With just a lightly sweet after taste.
Love the pineapple taste that this produces gives off great smells
A GREAT new tea to add to your collection. Makes an amazing cold brew for the upcoming warm weather.
Amazing! Perfect combination of tropical flavors!!
Great tea. Tastes great. Will be purchasing more of their teas.
This is excellent, a nice close sub to the teavana version, so pleased with Adagio teas!
I was addicted to Starbucks pineapple infused black tea until I found the Adagios pineapple kona. It is light and refreshing. I blend this with s black tea to give it a perfect balance of sweet but yet robust.
Nice and juicy tasting! Also great as an iced tea. Tastes like vacation :)
I tried a sample size of this tea. It s good and I will buy more but I am not in dire need. Maybe when I am faced with only having one cup left I will rush to buy more. Time will tell.
I purchased this tea as a possible replacement for Teavana's Pineapple Kona Pop (R.I.P.). Sadly it doesn't compare. The flavor is very weak. And I couldn't really distinguish the pineapple from the other flavors.
I think I expected too much pineapple flavor in this. Maybe it was because I brewed it as sun tea, but this was an extremely weak flavored brew, practically water. Because it may have been down to my method of brewing, I gave it 3 stars instead of lower. I used an entire sample packet that is supposed to be for 10 cups with 6 cups of water and sat it in direct sun for 8 hours. The end result tasted the equivalent of adding a teaspoon of pineapple juice to a glass of water. While this opened my eyes to the idea of adding some fresh pineapple to my fave oolong some time, this is not a purchase I’d be quick to make again. If you’re looking for a really mild flavor, though, it may be worth it to try a sample!
The Smell is a bit strong bef, but it transfers well to the taste.
This is a lot more subtle than I thought it would be, very fruity. This is a fun blend that makes me think of summer.
This tea smells like getting punched in the face by a pineapple. It s incredible. Unfortunately the flavor is much milder than the scent would lead you to believe. Have a feeling this would be tasty blended with blood orange.
