Description

Premium black tea from Sri Lanka flavored with slivers of roasted almonds. A nutty treat, delectable both hot and cold. If you have yet to try gourmet almond tea, you'll be pleasantly surprised by its superior taste. Indulge your taste buds. Give our Almond Tea a try.

Story

Almonds are mentioned as far back in history as the Bible. They were a prized ingredient in breads served to Egypt's pharaohs. Their exact ancestry is unknown, but almonds are thought to have originated in China and Central Asia. Explorers ate almonds while traveling the Silk Road between Asia and the Mediterranean. In the 18th Century, aided by the Franciscan monks, the almond tree made a leap to California, where it found a hospitable home. A large almond industry is now based in the Sacramento area.

"One of my absolute favorites. Not too marzipan-y for those who aren't marzipan fans but love the nutty warm almond flavor."

"The almond in this is nicely balanced (not overpowering). The problem is that the black tea is bitter. I wish Adagio would use a higher quality black tea in their flavored teas."

"I like the flavored almond black tea better than the almond oolong. It has a nice mellow flavor reminiscent of marzipan. Definitely one of my favorites!"
