Big on flavor, our Fuzzy Navel White tea combines the flavor of Georgia peaches and navel oranges with fruity white tea and rooibos for beachside refreshment.

Great peach taste, good warm but really good as a low-caffeine iced tea.
I was afraid the oils from the orange peel would be too strong, as they sometimes are from other teas, but there was nothing to fear. This was a wonderful tea with a great flavor.
It was nice to have a peach tea where the peach flavoring didn't overpower all the other components, but the flavors didn't quite play along well in my opinion.
This is a pretty good tea. I didn’t really enjoy the peach flavor but it is very mild so it wasn’t bad
This one is nice and fruity but i think of fuzzy navel as both peach and orange and i didn't get a strong flavor of either. It's a bit more peachy. Still liked it, it just didn't wow me.
I ordered a sample of this to cold brew for summer and was pleased.
This tea is especially yummy iced. i make it overnight in the refrigerator. Peachy, orangey fragrance and taste will whisk you away to thoughts of a tropical island. Very refreshing!
The key is steeping it just the right amount. Too long and it's kind of bitter.
I tried this Fuzzy Navel tea. It was a little disappointing, but the flavor was mild. I expected more flavor.
Reminds me of my favorite summertime drinks and the good times
Eh. I was hoping for something light, refreshing and fruity for iced tea but this wasn't it. I'm not sure how to describe it, but maybe just a mush of flavor that was neither particularly light nor particularly refreshing. I ended up making one pitcher and then relegating the rest of the pouch to the little-free-library on the corner.
It’s subtle, but sweet, and it’s very refreshing!!
This is currently one of my favorite iced teas right now. Fruity and refreshing!
I really enjoyed this tea, but I found steeping at a slightly lower temp for a longer time released more of the peach flavor. A lovely way to unwind at the end of the day.
A deliciously peachy white tea that is very good chilled!
This tea is good, very peachy and summery , I don't get alot of orange, and the roobios is hidden very well with the peach. A good cup!!
Not my favorite, to be honest. It has an acquired taste that I am not sure I want to acquire lol. I might give it one more chance lol
I'm not normally a fan of white tea or red roobios but this tea was surprisingly good. I tasted the peach more when it was warm and the orange more when it was cold and just a hint of the roobios. I liked it best cold and unsweetened.
I would give this an extra star if I actually liked peach flavored drinks. Having over done it once on the alcoholic version of a fuzzy navel, I have no desire to taste that combination again of peaches and oranges. If you are looking for a non-alcoholic, low cal version this tea is for you.
I've never had a fuzzy navel cocktail, but enjoyed the peach and orange in this blend as an iced tea. The tea smells fruity and steeps to a light peachy color. I used 1.75g of tea in 8 oz of water overnight, then sweetened with a scant teaspoon of sugar. I didn't notice any bitterness from the hibiscus, nor did I find the rooibos to overpower the white. Very refreshing.
Just way too peachy in this packet for me. I have a larger sample of this tea, and it wasn’t quite as peachy. If the sample itself was any indication, I’d never want this tea again. Not a fan of that peach flavor. The larger sample I brewed has more orange and mango in it, which helps.
Really nice tea! The combination of fruits was really well done.
I have grown to like white tea, BUt not so much for Rooibos. So this was a bit of an in-between good and ok.
More like 3.5 stars.
I received in my Communitee packet a strong aroma and flavor of mango followed by a citrus.
I honestly thought this was going to be a mango white tea. and was surprised and confused when it was revealed as a Fuzzy Navel.
Having never had a Fuzzy Navel I did not know what the taste should be like.
I really enjoyed this summery sip with a packet of Splenda. I made the mistake of brewing the first round too hot and couldn’t taste anything. As I let it cool, though, the mango and peach flavors began to shine. Second steep just as good. Summer yum!
First, take the advice of the website’s description; this blend is better iced. Peach aromas and flavors are strong. Chilled, there may be a slight hint of orange, but it is largely overpowered, even after adding sweetener. Interestingly, the rooibos in the blend adds a woody note that would make more sense to me if the original fuzzy navel cocktail were mixed with whiskey. A second steep proves more like the namesake cocktail in that regard with the woodiness considerably reduced, and, interestingly, I prefer the second steep more than the first. Although this blend is good, it doesn’t quite live up to the expectations set by its name. (3 minutes @ 185F, then chilled)
Oh tea. You teased me with the tempting name of a nummy drink filled with fruit. Then, hidden in the ingredients... rooibos. It always adds a background flavor that just doesn't work with my tastebuds. I know it is not the tea's fault that I don't like rooibos but it did seem to upset the balance of this particular tea, thus the ok rating.
I really enjoy Adagios white teas. They respect the delicate flavor of the tea itself. Fuzzy Navel is a good peach interpretation.
Thought the smell was very crisp out of the packet. After making the tea, I could really smell the peach, but tasting it, it wasn't as strong as I was afraid it would be (I'm not a huge peach-flavor person). Really nice, mellow flavor that I could easily drink hot. I didn't add anything to this. Would probably be really good iced also!
Thanks to rewards, I had a bag of this waiting to be opened when I read what the CommuniTEA was today. Realizing the opportunity, I made both an iced tea version and a hot version to compare them.
On a cold winter's day, I might make a cup of this, but the hands-down winner is the iced tea version. Not frigid cold, it needs to sit and warm up from the fridge a little. I can see sitting outside in a nice chair, reading a book, with a big pitcher of this besides my teacup.
I added a bit of light blue agave syrup for sweetness, and it really brought out the peach and citrus notes.
Peachy orangey goodness. There's a nice tartness to go with the sweetness, and so it's a very balanced, enjoyable tea.
Peach scent hit me when I opened the CommuniTEA packet. This tea tasted delicious. White tea is so delicate, I found the peach overpowered a bit. Orange flavors were not prominent in my sample, neither was the rooibos, thank goodness. I enjoyed this chilled. Overall, light, peachy tea delicious chilled. Happy sipping!
I cold steeped this first, then used the leaves for a second hot steep. I drank the hot version first. It was pretty much what I expected for a white, light with a hint of fruit. Orange was the most obvious. Didn’t get a lot of the rooibos in this sip. Which then shocked me when I drank the cold steep and got a totally different tea! This one tasted like a slightly toned down version of the peach rooibos. Unfortunately, while I like peach and I like rooibos, that combination doesn’t do it for me. And in this tea, it resulted in a much sharper flavor than what I would want with a white tea base.
I have this tea and I like it. I prefer my teas stronger apparently. When I got this from a local tea store, their packaging always shows 2 teaspoons per 8oz cup, and that's how I've been drinking tea for years. No wonder I'm always thinking the tea I'm having here is weak. I think I've just grown accustomed to strong tea and like it that way. I will need to cut back on my water when brewing the communiTEA samples.
The CommuniTEA packet opened to release the scent of sweet peach nectar. I had already tried this one in the 'Mocktail Teas' collection, but was still excited to sample it again! A white tea steep at 180°F for 3 minutes created a light orange colored tea.
The rising steam carries more peachy aromas up from the cup as I wait to sip it. Plentiful peachy flavors continue into each sip. The flavor is like fresh peach fuzz and light unsweetened peach essences. White tea adds a light dry character, perfect to emulate the Fuzzy Navel cocktail from which this tea blend was inspired. A light astringency keeps things moving into white tea territory into the finish.
This one is really tasty, even when compared to the original white peach blend. There might be a little extra peachy oomph in this special blend. This one gets the thumbs up from my wife, so it's highly recommended if you like peach!
Lovely aroma and great taste! Nice blend of fruity flavors and white tea. Very very Good! mmmmmm
Smells just like a fuzzy navel! Nice balance of peach and orange flavors. Light fruity flavors with a touchy of woody flavor from the rooibos. Added sugar to brighten the fruit flavors which helped. As this cools the woody flavor moves to the background and the peach is more forward. Made a great iced tea that my whole family loved. Steeped two times at 180° for 3 mins. Enjoy!
It was good, I taste little mango, peach, it was good hot and cold (180 5 min)☕️🫖
I'm glad I finally got a chance to try this tea. Very light and delicate with just a hint of fruit.
Wasn’t completely sure of the flavor at first but it did grow on me. Nice and peachy with a minty after taste
I have no idea what a fuzzy navel is supposed to taste like, so I can't comment on the accuracy of the flavor. This tea tastes like peach tea, but there isn't really anything special about it. I think it tastes peachiest when the tea is cool, but not too cold. I also found it pretty sweet, so didn't add sugar.
I steeped this tea at 180F for 3 minutes
Really did not care for the rooibos in this. I think the peach flavor was good, but the rooibos over powered. I tried this hot, and iced . Neither was a winner for me.
Peach peach peach! This tea doesn’t disappoint on flavor or aroma!
A pleasant peach and orange experience that smells amazing. (3 mins @ 185°F)
185 degrees for 3 minutes. Peachy, fruity, yumminess! Light and fresh with dominant peach 🍑 flavors. Really enjoyed this one!
Bubbly peach and orange flavors in a delicate white tea. I am not tasting any of the rooibos or hibiscus - it has barely any tartness. This would be really good iced.
I tried this as part of the Communitea on a particularly gray and gloomy summer day, and it was a ray of sunshine! Orangey, peachy, with delicate white tea and a hint of warm rooibos.
A note for anyone who read the ingredients and worried: I'm very anti-hibiscus, as I feel it takes over teas with its overwhelming tartness, but I didn't even notice it in this blend - either it's a background player (for once), or my sample packet didn't contain much. The trademark rooibos woodiness was subdued, but present, as well. Given how delicate white tea's flavor is, the fact that these two are kept in check is a real compliment!
Adagio Communitea packet - very enjoyable; white tea and mellow.
Sipping with the CommuniTEA today: Strong peach and orange fragrance from the dry ingredients and packet. Once steeped for 3 mins at 185°F, I notice nice minerality of the white tea with peach and orange essence. When I take a sip, I get a slight tangy orange and peach bite from the fruit flavors and hibiscus with a subtle herbaceous eucalyptus finish. This is a fun nod the adult beverage and a great tea to drink.
I rate todays tea a 8.5/10
This is a perfect tea with peach season right around the corner. I was scared I wouldn't like it because I don't always enjoy white teas.
