decaf raspberry
by adagio teas
(19 reviews)
Crisp decaf Ceylon tea with playful raspberry. Candy-like aroma, jammy flavor, tangy dry finish, not too 'cheeky.' A gentle, natural decaffeination process retains the delicate shape and flavor of the tea leaves. Steep at 212°F for 3 minutes

Light raspberry aroma from the packet. 2 min @ 165. Mild raspberry taste, no bitterness or astringency. Resteep 2 min @ 165 still had light raspberry taste. I'm beginning to appreciate the fruity decaf black teas.

So good! This is such a good tea with a nice blending of bold black tea and fruity taste. Nice hot or cold brewed. makes a nice latte as well. yum!

I absolutely love this tea. I got it as a sampler, then immediately had to order a proper amount. The raspberry flavor comes through nicely, and even though there's not any chocolate in it, it almost tastes like eating a raspberry truffle. It's good hot or iced.

The raspberry flavor is delicious and I love that I can sip it before bedtime. This is a nighttime treat!

I cold brewed this tea for about 12 hours and really enjoyed the smell and flavor of raspberries and Ceylon tea!

Smooth like an oolong and without the bitter kick of a typical black tea. The flavor isn't as strong as the aroma would suggest. The blend is gentle and welcoming, never overwhelming or sour. Fans of raspberry teas who find the typical raspberry mix too punchy will enjoy this pleasant alternative!

Not bad, not good, just pretty flat and one note. If you're looking for a good caffeine free raspberry tea, go for the raspberry patch instead. It's so much better.

I found this tea very nice and refreshing. It has a very nice raspberry taste and smell. Its a good way to start the morning or end the day.

Nice raspberry aroma and taste, but the Ceylon tea is too bitter and astringent for me.

This is a great tea any time of the day, especially at night to get that dessert flavor with out the caffeine. Love it

Almost as good as dessert after dinner. Wonderful taste and the flavor is not overwhelming.

The Adagio raspberry teas are some of my absolute favorites! I love the regular caffeinated version of this tea, and this one is just as good - fruity and wonderful without the fake flavors like blueberry and blackberry have. It's so good I can't even tell it's decaf. I just had a sample pouch, but I will definitely be buying more soon!

This is a killer decaf! There's minimal loss of flavor in the Ceylon while the raspberry still pops out against the steady and subtle astringency. I've had two cups of it and already know it's a winner.

I have been looking for a good raspberry blend and this is it. it is really nice raspberry flavor even though it is decaf. perfect hot or cold. highly recommend with a dash of honey or cream.

Not exactly a favorite, but not half bad either. I think the raspberry countered some of the bitterness that Adagio's decaffeination process seems to cause.

A good blend of a mild not very astringent black tea and a slightly tart yet still light raspberry flavor. The black tea is not overpowering even though the flavor of the raspberry is quite light. Very reminiscent of the type of flavor you would get from raspberry dark chocolate, slightly bitter from the black tea, slightly tart from the raspberry, heavier than a delicate white or green tea but still lighter tasting and feeling for a black tea, all around a delight!

Like Adagio's blueberry tea, this has a nice berry flavor that is balanced with the tea, and is extra "jammy" with a bit of added sugar and/or milk.
