Imagine being whisked away to a perfumy, fresh Apricot orchard... That's the sensation you'll get with your first sip of our delectable Apricot Black tea. Combining the sweet flavor of ripe summer Apricots with the tangy bright taste of Ceylon black tea, you can experience it year-round.

      A mellow black Ceylon tea with a light tasting apricot flavor. If brewed right, the tea isn't bitter or astringent.

      A juicy fruit tea that doesn't disappoint, the apricot flavors are bright and natural tasting. I don't often go for fruit teas, but this one is a good one for an iced tea or a summer cup.

      The apricot black tea is delicious hot or cold brew over night with some sweetener. This is a regular tea year round.

      This is a nice blend of apricot and black tea. The taste isn't overwhelming or artificial.

      Definitely my favorite black tea right now. Just the right hint of sweetness and a great aroma. It's perfect any time of year. A great staple for your cabinet.

      This is a delicious apricot flavored black tea with a bit of acceptable astringency.

      This is literally the best iced tea I've ever made myself. Add a bit of raw honey and you've set yourself up for quite the treat!

      Lovely black tea with just the right amount of apricot flavor. Great hot or cold brewed. Love it! Really good with a bit of cinnamon and vanilla added. Also makes a great tea latte.

      Brewed at a lower temperature, this tea wasn't bitter and the apricot flavor was more pronounced.

      Long fond of peach-flavored tea, I am now find that Adagio's apricot black tea tops the list. I find the subtle sweetness of the apricot provides a richer flavor than any peach tea I have tried.

      A lovely fruity tea that ranks right up there with peach tea. Good sipped hot or iced. One of my favorites.

    • 

      Lightly flavored black tea with a juicy infusion of citrus orange. The nector-like tang can really be felt in the little wave of extra flavor in the aftertaste.

    • 

      Didn't love this one as much as I thought I would, as I love apricots. I think it has more to do with personal preference (like green teas way better than black). I have been brewing black teas at a lower temp and they taste less bitter to me, so I will revisit this one at maybe 200 degrees or 195 next time.

      Close second to their peach. I actually enjoy this hot as well

    • 

      The apricot aroma is more pronounced than the flavor, but that's not a bad thing. Although the flavor is subtle, it's a cheerful tea for a morning or afternoon pick me up.

      

      Light apricot flavor, though there is something astringent in it as well, though it doesn't take away from the mild fruity flavor. Nothing particularly exciting about this tea, it's just as expected. Delicious!

      never met an apricot i didn't like... fond memories of my own apricot tree too, and the two babies i planted as the original aged... wonderful tea, ty

      Very yummy apricot flavor. It makes an amazing iced tea. Especially if made hot and then dumped over ice

      Not my favorite fruity black tea from Adagio, but still a pleasant and solid choice!

      A smooth cup of tea that beautifully carries the apricot flavor without being cloying or overbearing

    • 

      It made a smooth ice tea but I didn't think the apricot was very strong.

    • 

      This was bitter the first time I had it simply because I brewed it a few minutes longer than I should have. But the second time it was perfect. I still prefer the apricot green tea over this one for sure, but it's still pretty good. The apricot flavor is there, although not as much as some of the other apricot teas I've tried.

    • 

      Absolutely delicious, delighted that it contains real apricot pieces
