Ginger Peach tea has become an American classic. Adagio's Ginger Peach Black has the soft warmth of ginger with the sweet depth of summer ripe peaches and apricots, paired beautifully with tangy, naturally citrusy Ceylon black tea. Enjoyable anytime of year as a hot tea, we find it to be particularly refreshing iced. Steep at 212°F for 3 minutes

Not my favorite flavor combination. I like ginger, and I like peach....just not together. Not my cup of tea.

Admittedly I don't tend to like peach teas so it's not a surprise this wasn't a favorite tea of mine.

The peach flavor is strong, but the ginger is almost not even there. I would add ginger to this. Careful not to oversteep this or it gets bitter and astringent. Good as just a basic peach tea, might make a good base to blend with if you like peach.

This tea has a very fragrant peach aroma upon opening. After brewing, the peach smell has dissipated. The taste is mostly bitter, astringent black tea. Peach comes out as a mild aftertaste. Didn't detect any ginger in smell, taste, or bite.

This is a tasty well-balanced ginger-peach tea but I gave it one less star because I found it too astringent.

Too much peach, not enough ginger. That's a problem I've had with all ginger peach teas; there's almost no ginger at all. Might as well just get the plain peach.

I've yet to find a ginger peach tea that's got a good balance of ginger and peach. This is a perfectly nice *peach* tea, but the ginger is barely there.

When I opened the tea I smelled ginger and peaches. I think I may have use a little too much water because after steeping, I mainly tasted black tea. I don't know if there would have been more peach and ginger flavor if I had used a smaller cup, but I don't think I'd go out of my way to drink this tea.

Nice bold tea with lots of peachy aroma, but not noticeable in the flavor until the tea cooled. I enjoyed the tea.

Has a nice peachy aroma in the dry blend. Once brewed the peach/apricot flavor was pretty weak, with the ginger taking over. I'm not a fan of the base Ceylon tea, but it's better if brewed at a lower temperature. Quite astringent on the finish.

I wouldn't be able to tell you whether this idea is better in concept or practice because my sample wasn't a good representation of it's flavors. However, I can tell you I enjoyed my portion a great deal. Many people on the parent site had contrasting opinions whether the ginger was too weak or too strong but mine erred on the weaker side. As far as that goes, I rather enjoyed the peachiness accented by the subtle zing of the ginger. Neither flavor was particularly bold but it made for a cozy cup.

Mostly a big cup of ginger, with the peach not showing up until the tea started to cool down a bit. I mean I love ginger, but a little more peach would have been nice.

I wanted to like it more but there was more ginger than fruit. I hardly tasted any peaches or apricot despite adding milk and sugar. The fruit notes did come out more when it cooled so perhaps it is better drunk iced.

i'm a fan of ginger, like to dry it myself, and it's one of the best flavors to add to tea imo... and with peach, what's not to like? the tangy zing and the sweet surprise... well done

This is a great tea for a mid morning pick me up during the winter. It has a nice warm and comforting flavor. Drink without milk

I'm not a fan of ginger tea on it's own, so I was pleasantly surprised with the peach compliment!

I was really excited to try this tea when a friend told me they had purchased it. While it was a pleasant taste and smooth, the flavor just wasn't strong enough for my liking.

So I initially thought I would love this tea, but I am glad I only purchased a sample package since am not a huge fan. Just smelling the tea I can smell the ginger and peach, but once brewed it just tastes like black tea.
