One of my go to green teas when I am running rate! The floral and fruity flavors come through more than they normally would in a green tea!

Disclaimer: I don't like rose. The dry tea smells very strongly of lychee to me. So much that I didn't detect rose, even though I knew it was there. I picked out the rose petals before steeping. 2 min @ whatever temp the office hot water dispenser is. While hot, I tasted mostly green tea with faint lychee. As it cooled, the rose flavor came forward. Not a tea for me.

I love most Adagio teas, but I don't like lychee or rose in tea. So this one is just not for me. I have seen many rave reviews from those who enjoy rose in tea though!

I've never tred lychee on its own and don't really know how it tastes but this tea was certainly very delicious. It got better and better the further I progressed into my cup, which is not something I can say of many teas.

I can definitely taste the lychee here, and it also reminds me of pear. Specifically this is very similar to the Japanese Detox tea from Palais de Thés which I already loved, but this one is less expensive. It's very Japanese.

This tea is spot on with tasting like lychees. The green tea is light, not grassy or bitter. And just a hint of rose.

I liked this tea better than I remembered. It has a light fruit flavor and no grassiness. I steeped using 180 F water x 2 min and added ~ 1/4 tsp monk fruit

Lychee and apple with a hint of rose on a subtle green base. Rose can be hit or miss for me, but the rose in this blend perfectly complimented the unique lychee flavor without tasting like potpourri. Sweetened with some honey, this tea was delicious and perfect for these early spring days.

This is a beautiful tea that steeps up into a delicious fruity and floral green tea. I steeped at 175 degrees for 3 minutes. Very nice!

A very gentle green tea with a strong rose scent and a light lychee flavor. I really enjoy this tea, but if you do not care for rose, you may find this one off-putting, as there is quite a bit. Regardless, this is in my Top 10 teas. I enjoy it with a bit of sugar.

This is great hot or iced. The grassiness of the green tea is toned down by the floral and fruit flavors.

This was a pleasant aroma and taste. Loved the floral notes. I use this blend to add to other green teas to add more flavors

With one sip or one inhale, I'm reminded of a bubble tea and tapioca pearls (most likely because of the green and lychee overtones). This is a light steep with notes of floral and not-too-tart fruit, alongside green's traditional earthiness. If you like the concept but prefer less of a grassy taste, try Hanagami from the Okami Adagio tea set!

This tea is good hot but far better iced! Having it iced really balances all the flavors nicely--it isn't too sweet, too floral, or too astringent. Hot can sometimes be a bit too sweet for me, so if you think it's too intense or sweet, try it iced before you get rid of it!

Absolutely delicious tea if you like lychee. I usually don't like floral teas, but this one is great.

A short steeping and a good lychee flavor. One of the coworkers like it as well even though not a big tea drinker.

Beth Hays
This ones really different. There’s too much rose and not enough lychee for me.

Perfumey and very artificial rose tasting. I am not a fan of this tea. I use a larger water to tea ratio and cold brew to avoid the volatile perfume

Really enjoyable, light floral tea. The green tea's flavor is nicely balanced with the fruity lychee and the floral rose. A winner for sure!

I love lychee fruit, this has a slight lychee flavor to me. But, the smell is incredible, tastes wonderful! Floral, slight fruity. I would buy again.

I didn’t taste the lychee in this, but that may be because I cold brewed it. The rose balances nicely with the vegetal taste of the green tea, however. I look forward to trying it as a hot tea!

I had high expectation of this tea but turned out it kinda disappointed me. The artificial flavor is too overwhelming.

This is a very light rose tea that does not need sweetener or cream. I was able to brew the leaves a second time to pour over ice. It was a lovely ice tea to drink all day long.

This one is just alright. There's a fruity floral taste, but it's not the best.

Cassandra Guild
This tea is perfect for anyone who likes floral flavors. The floral fruitiness of the lychee pairs really well with the rose. It has a natural sweetness that cuts the bitterness that green tea can have.

This has an amazing scent, like tropical fruit and green grapes. The fruit flavor isn't very strong once brewed though, and it mainly tastes like a lightly fruity floral green tea. However it is really nice cold brewed and iced, very light and refreshing during the summer months.
