citron green

(50 reviews)
Citron Green tea combines green tea from China with delicate flavors of lemon and lime. The clean vegetal notes of the green tea blend seamlessly with the citrus crispness. Delightfully sweet, lifted by the freshness of the lemon-orange. Not too dry or too citrusy. Citrus Green is an Adagio customer favorite, perfect hot or iced. Steep at 180°F for 2-3 minutes

The aroma from the packet is lemon-lime. Orange peel and marigold are present among the green tea leaves. 90 sec @ 165. The citrus taste is more orange with lemon. Medium astringency. I recommend as a fan of both citrus and green tea.

This is a really nice green tea, it brews well and is wonderful to sit and enjoy. Where it really shines though is as an iced tea, the citrus flavors are lovely and it works unsweetened or with a bit of sweetness added in. I plan to try using it as a boba tea and it should work wonderfully.

This is better iced than hot brewed. The grassiness is mellowed and adding a little sweetener, the lemon is more forward.

I'm not a big fan of green tea. I prefer a bolder, in your face sort of tea most of the time. But, this light citrus-y green tea is very good! Has a nice aroma, light fruity taste. Very nice!

I'm not a fan of green teas, but this one worked for me. The citrus blend was a pleasant surprise.

An interesting green tea blend, the citrus can be a little too strong/astringent at times, but I still enjoy this brew!

This tea is not a favorite of mine. The citrus was weak and the green tea a little bitter. Perhaps it would be better with less steep time

This is a pleasant green tea blended with citrus flavors that tastes best when warm. I added raw honey.

I enjoyed the citrus flavor more than the green tea itself. This is a one and done for me. The flavoring is gone after the first steep and then there is just grassiness.

I love this tea! I started taking it to the gym in an iced tea press. It's the perfect complement to a workout. I love it!! Great green tea taste & the citrus burst really complements the green tea!

I received this tea in an Adagio green sampler. I really enjoyed it and think it is a great tea to wake up with. Light and crisp with the citrus notes. I will be ordering more.

This is my favorite tea, and I enjoy it both hot and iced. I dislike "grassy" green teas. The citrus flavor is a nice blend and is not too strong in any one flavor. I definitely disagree that you taste the lemon more as mentioned in previous reviews. The flavors are not overpowering.

One of my favorite teas. Light citrus/lemon taste that balances the green tea very nicely!

Tasted too much like Fruit Loops to me! The way the milk tastes after you finish the cereal. Not my thing.

Every time I try a tea with lemon as a prominent flavor, I'm always reminded of one particular fruity cereal made of multicolored loops. This tea, while definitely tasting like cereal, also has a distince vegetal, umami taste and mouthfeel. It's weird but very enjoyable.

Tastes like a green tea version of a sprite soda. I gotta say, I'm a fan. It's very light and refreshing, perfect for a lazy day at the pool.

Nice light green tea without any bitterness or raw grassy taste. Sweet citrus flavor without tartness. Smooth and silky with a clean finish.

Okay, I'm really enjoying this tea! It's really refreshing without being overpowering. If I had just woken up and I had a sore throat, it would be my top choice for what to drink

So far my favorite green tea. The citrus is refreshing and the green tea is not overly grassy or vegetal. I like it hot and love it iced!

This tea is one of my favorite greens. The flavor of citrus are great. I’m a big fan of anything with lemon or orange or lime. So this tea hints all the right points with me. 3 mins @180 hot and then I will do a second steep and let it sit for about 15 minutes and then put in the fridge.

More lemon than orange. But the lemon is not overpowering. Great with sweetener and iced.

Citrus based green tea, one note tea, does not get bitter or astringent if oversteeped.

The flavors from the citrus notes and green tea blend together well in this tea and I think anyone who enjoys fruity green teas would love this. I tend to veer more towards vegetal Japanese greens over Chinese ones, that tend to be much lighter, though. Just personal preference.

This one wasn’t for me but I may revisit it in the future after getting a little more used to flavored greens.

The citrus in this really came through. If you like green tea and citrus you'll love this.

Really good green tea! I found the citrus interesting without being too overpowering, like some teas. Less of a fruity tea and more of a gently flavored green tea.

The citrus notes were a bit too strong for me but it seems like a wonderful idea in concept. I'd drink it again but wouldn't seek it out. Maybe if the citrus notes were a bit more mild?

I smelled and tasted the orange in this tea immediately. I added a decent amount of honey, which blended nicely. Very good cup of tea.

Fresh, crisp, wonderful blend that is great on its own or blended with other teas as well. Highly recommend it.

Refreshing tang. I brew it for 3 minutes along with many of my unflavored black teas. Just lovely.

I liked this one, but it's not as flavorful as Adagio's Citrus Mint Green. This one is more subtle, and not quite as refreshing, but the flavor of the green comes through nicely. I think the Citrus Mint Green suits my mood more often, but I'll definitely keep this one in my rotation.

The citrus and the type of green tea used here go great together. The lush vegetal taste of the green tea goes really well with the bright lemon

Yum! Easily one of my favorite green teas overall, but especially from Adagio. The blend of citrus and green tea is just right.

A perfect mild citrus tea. One of my favorites. The green grassy notes are subtle

Though I haven't had this in a while, the last time I purchased it, I was pleased with the citrus blend flavor in my green tea. It makes the cup bright and lightly acidic and it's good hot or cold.
