Very good tea, the berry taste is not overpowering. This is a great way to start my morning.
Bold, earthy flavors of berries and herbs; a grounding tea with a complex character.

Very good tea, the berry taste is not overpowering. This is a great way to start my morning.
I taste and smell sage with just a hint of blackberry. They are a wonderful combination for something different every now and then.
I am enjoying this tea. It has an herbal-ish flavor and also slightly fruity. I'm giving it a 4 instead of a 5 because it came out kind of weak for me.
edit: After having it a few more times I am changing to 2 stars to remind myself not to buy it again. After a while something about it made me feel almost like gaging while drinking it or smelling it. I think maybe it tastes weirdly sweet or something idk.
I originally got this as a free sample for sharing on Facebook, so I didn't even have to pay for my first taste of it. I wouldn't have even tried it if it hadn't been free. It's now one of my favorites and I usually have at least one cup per day. I don't really know a lot of tea terminology, but this tea is just incredibly soothing, and I love drinking it while reading or playing Animal Crossing. I haven't had much sage in other things, so I can't really sort the sage flavor from the others, but I think it all just blends together beautifully to make a lovely, calming cup of tea. I will definitely be reordering it frequently.
This is a fruity but earthy tea. It’s great for relieving cramps and makes a delicious tea for relaxing with
Really like this tea! The sage is the prominent scent and flavor once brewed, but it isn’t too strong, nicely balanced by the blackberry.
Unfair of me to say I bought this and Baskerville Bramble at the same time thinking I could enjoy both for Fall. Blackberry Sage Oolong is nice. I would have never thought of pairing sage with any fruit except citrus. I do like this combo. I really thought this would make a nice fall drink after drinking it, I realize it really is more like a summer drink than fall. I'll wait a few weeks before storing it into my non-seasonal cabinet if any is left.
Very good and balanced flavorful Oolong, reminds me of summer!
I love having this tea in the mornings to get ready for the day. The blackberry really comes through and the sage isn't too strong.
I originally bought this tea on a whim, probably to get free shipping tbh. It has quickly become a favorite of mine. I love the juicy berry flavor with a hint of sage beneath to ground it. It's one that I find myself reaching for often! I haven't tried it iced yet, but I'm guessing it will be great!
I am so surprised by how delicious this tea is. I love blackberry, and it is so hard to find a delicious blackberry tea. There is a wonderful balance of the blackberry and sage flavors. It is so calming while providing a little energy - a perfect afternoon pick-me-up. The iced tea was okay, but it is definitely better as a hot tea.
I thought for sure that I would like this tea, given that one of my favorite cakes has the same flavor profile - berries and sage. But the taste/aroma of sage is over-powering and frankly I barely taste any tea.
the blackberry taste is stronger then the sage in this tea. it could be that i had order a sample and it didn't may not have been mix well.
Excellent. Dark stone fruit flavors, with a little bit of raspberry sweetness on the finish.
I love the sage aspects of this tea, usually mix it with something smokey!
The balance of the blackberry and sage flavors is excellent. The blackberry is fruity and refreshing without being overpowering. Likewise, I get a very distinct note of sage that isn't overbearing. This is cool and light and perfect for summer iced tea.
A lovely flavor. Interesting and so enjoyable! This is an everyday tea but still special!
A good mid-day tea. Didn't meet the 'get out of bed' needs, but was fragrant and flavorful once already awake.
this is the first oolong tea i've had and it's very unique, the sage makes it taste super fresh! i love it!!!
This is officially one of my new favorite teas. It's a unique flavor, fruity but not cloying or artificial, and the earthy sage balances the taste profile wonderfully. Gets weaker on subsequent steeps, but it's good enough that I don't mind. I'm buying this in bulk.
A really unusual mix of flavours, but one that works stunningly well! The sage gives it depth and pairs nicely with the earthy taste of the oolong and the sweetness of the blackberry. I got a sample bag of it with my first order, and picked it again for my free sample bag the second time. Usually I'd try a new blend (I enjoy variety), but this one was too good to pass up! ;)
It smells wonderful in the bag and tastes lovely when brewed.
This tea is pretty good. I thought it sounded like it would be good iced, but the flavor didn't hold up as well as I would have liked. That said, I definitely like it hot.
I actually really liked the flavor. The berry smell was very stirring but the taste was more subtle. The sage was subtle and balanced it out nicely. Unfortunately I had a weird reaction to something in the tea because each time I tried it I got a slight numb mouth and slight racing heart. I think I’m allergic.
Smells and tastes wonderful! The blackberry and the sage complement each other really well and overall effect is a very smooth oolong tea.
I really enjoy this one. I’m experimenting with oolongs and this has an interesting flavor with the blackberry and sage and I could taste both in it. Would buy again.
Definitely full of flavor, and a unique blend. I think the sage flavor is more forward than the blackberry, but I enjoy the herbal quality.
Very flavorful, good with a little honey or by itself.
This is my favorite Adagio tea. I went through my first 3oz in record time.
Smooth berry taste. It was the perfect replacement for my teavanna oolong
I was hoping that this tea would taste as good as it sounded, and to my delight it does! Even good iced.
This earthy black tea has become a favorite in our house. Strong sage and blackberry flavors, beautiful with or without sweetener and milk.
Earthly with a strong amount of sage. I appreciated that it was different than anything else on my shelf
This tea is amazing! So flavorful and refreshing. One of the best I’ve tried so far.
Surprisingly good! Not too spicy or fruity! Excellent balance :)
I was in the mood for an oolong and decided to try this one as many others were sold out. I was not disappointed. The blackberry isn't too strong, but it's got a nice aroma and a good taste.
I'm a big fan of oolong. I don't usually have flavored oolong, but this is good. Very fragrant with a classic oolong undertone
It's good. nice blackberry flavor. Not my favorite but I've ordered the sample a couple of times. I use it at the recommended time and temp.
Wow. I don't have much experience with oolong but this tea is amazing. Herbal and sweet with some earth notes. This could easily become an all day tea for me.
Bonus tip: be sure to try for multiple brewings, it can handle it and it evolves over time.
This tea is very tasty! I love the herbal taste from the sage and the sweetness from the blackberry.
Smells amazing and has an enjoyable flavor. The sage is fairly unique in smell, and I'm not sure I like it that much, but I do think this tea is worth trying or adding to your collection 👍
The blackberry flavor isn't super strong but it's still really good
I was looking for a tea that was a little different and this was perfect! I do not care for a hot tea that is too sweet and fruity. The sage combined with the blackberry was just the right balance! I have already ordered more!
Incredibly comforting and smooth, this tea is great in the morning as well as in the afternoon for a quick midday pick-me-up
My favorite tea! Blackberry and sage is an excellent pairing.
One of my favorite teas now. Not too strong with lots of flavor
Nice fruity flavor and the sage wasn't overpowering but just enhanced the fruit flavor.
I love oolong, and I was so excited to find this one. I keep a pitcher of iced tea in fridge, and this is my go-to right now. I resteep it as well, one of the reasons I love oolong so much is that you can get more than one flavorful cup out of the leaves. I make mine with honey and a little bit of lemon, I find it just helps bring out all the notes. It's delightfully berry and earthy.
The first time I tried this Tea I think I steeped it too long (212 for 5 mins), I was overwhelmed with Sage. with some advice and guidance, I did shorter steep at lower temp. I found the fruit and it was lovely, and the sage was a nice crisp pallete cleansing aftertaste. I could see why my tea friends enjoyed this. You may need to experiment with this blend; Trial and error but don t give up on it. I also think the mix of your spoonful matters. Perhaps my first time I had too many sage leaves, hence the sage bomb. Its worth the effort.
Easily me and my partner s new favorite tea! The blackberry really blends with the oolong without overpowering it. Couldn t recommend it more!
