The Autumn Teas Sampler from Adagio

October 16, 2021 by Emily Dill Leave a Comment

What’s better than one really good Autumn tea?

Well, four, of course.

Thanks to Adagio, that little crisp-fall-leaves dream can come true. Their Autumn Teas sampler includes four different loose leaf teas, each of which would be worth buying on their own. Here’s the list:

– My personal favorite from the pack, the Autumn Mist Green Tea. It’s just that darn good. It’s gunpowder green which is one of my personal favorite things in the history of ever. Then throw in some apple? Some rose? Some creme brulee? HOW CAN YOU NOT LOVE THIS? Whew.

– Bonfire, which is my husband’s favorite (seriously, he’s already made me order more which should get delivered this week). I don’t know how to say this except it’s absolutely like drinking a campfire. And I don’t know how I know that because I’m certain that’s an activity I’ve never partaken in.

But somehow, in my soul, I know this is what it tastes like. I can’t even go into what all is in this tea (like, there’s peppercorns, and cinnamon, and some cloves, and cocoa, and some apple, and some hazelnut flavor…), but just know that it all comes together to taste like….fire. And apparently that’s my husband’s thing. Who knew?

– Pumpkin spice, which almost everyone is crazy for this time of year, right? There’s some spice and cinnamon and ginger and cloves, oh my. I’d personally add a little sweetener or cream, but you don’t have to listen to me, I’m not your mom. (Unless Colton’s reading this, in which case I AM your momma and go to sleep, you’ve had a big day. And also, you’re 1, how are you reading this?!).

– Honeybush pumpkin chai, which is an herbal tea, so you can enjoy pumpkin spiciness any time of day. It also has cocoa nibs and safflower in there, along with some ginger and cardamom. Chai and spicy teas are my least favorites and no matter how hard I try to force it, that will never change, but if you like these teas (and tons of people do!), you’ll love the two pumpkin drinks included in the sampler.

Let me know your favorite from the pack (its the green tea, right? Thought so.) – and tell my husband to slow down on drinking the Bonfire because I’m not made of money.

Bella Luna Blue from Adagio

August 2, 2021 by Emily Dill Leave a Comment

Some things happen once in a Blue Moon.

Sorry, I had to. 🙂

Bella Luna Blue, meet the reader. Reader, meet Bella.

I wish you could smell this tea! This is where scratch and sniff technology would really come in handy for smart phones and computers. (And then there are times that I’m really, really glad it doesn’t exist.)

This is the Bella Luna Blue tea from Adagio Teas and it smells like a slice of blueberry heaven, which I’m sure is a real section of the actual Heaven. Catch me there in 6 or 7 decades. This loose leaf tea is ONLY available for purchase on an actual blue moon and the next one is August 22nd (thank you so much Adagio for my bag – I’m so glad I didn’t have to wait!). This limited edition tea brews blue, but turns purple when you add lemon juice, and it’s pretty freaking cool to watch. In the picture below, I’m sure you’ll be able to tell which one I added lemon juice to.

Blue is my favorite color so I like mine better without the lemon juice, but the purple is still beautiful (and tart and lemony for those of you into that). The flavors are just as good as the smell, with a delicious combination of blueberries, lemongrass, and Butterfly Pea Flower.

Make sure to make yourself a note, or set a reminder, for August 22nd, so you can grab a bag of this tea and taste (and smell!) this yumminess for yourself. 🙂
