Although the teas in the sampler were adequate, the tiny tea tins arrived damaged. Lids were askew and some tea was spilled inside the enclosing box.

That said, this product is a good gift for a tea novice.

I can't hold it against the product, which was fresh and high quality, that I found that I don't like green tea, outside of gunpowder. Gunpowder was generally a bit darker and very smokey smooth. The others I tried seemed more like I was drinking grass or broccoli stew. I admit that my tastes are very unrefined. If you like green tea, this will be a home run!

There is only one way to find out what you like, and at least you can try the best, when you go with Adagio!

If you end up with gunpowder, get some peppermint and make a great classic blend!

If you like green teas this is a wonderful selection. High quality.

At the same time I also bought a small tin of green tea powder, which will last a long time. It's great to add a pinch to the brewed green tea.

Got this as a gift for me mum and she loved it. There was one tea she did not care for but the rest she liked. She loved the tins and used them later.

i purchased this product as a christmas gift for my son. he is very pleased with the product. i received it in plenty of time before the holiday. the only thing i wasn't happy about was the extra postage they charge for so-called urban delivery. i live within 10 minutes from town. $8 is a bit much, i think.

I've ordered so much tea from this company! It's wonderful tea, great customer service, really affordable shipping and tea. I can't say enough great things about this company or their products. I'm from a medium sized city in the southeast, but most of the tea availability is celestial seasonings. Adagio has saved me from mediocre tea.

If you're interested in trying green tea, this is easily the best sampler pack to try it. The green tea is fresh and good quality -- and you'll enjoy it for some time to come.

They pack these tins full, so even though they're small tins, you'll get somewhere around 10 cups or so of tea. Plenty of times to decide what you like and what you don't.

I have long subscribed to a tea mail list. I have read about many teas , such as golden monkey but, was afraid to buy something i might not like. So these samples gave me a chance to really try different types of tea. I have not found any yet that i do not like. Offering tea samples like this is a great idea.

Arrived just fine. I liked some of the teas better than others but each tin was packed with fresh leaves and quite delicious. I recommend this for anyone who likes green tea and is looking to find new flavors or as a gift for someone who likes green tea or someone looking to get into loose leaf green tea. Highly recommended!

This package offer a wide variety of green tea. I am well educated through the experience it has brought me. The taste of each tea is delicious. Although the box seem small you have enough leaves to make tea numerous of times with each type.

Advice: Do not pour hot water over it and expect it to taste anything more than water.

You have to BOIL the tea leaves over the fire for a while (or until it wrap itself) for it's full taste.

I wont go into the detail of how each taste and will leave that up to you to experience!
