Description

In the famous poem 'The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock', T.S. Eliot wrote, 'do I dare to eat a peach?' The literary-minded folks at Adagio have taken it upon themselves to provide Mr. Eliot with an answer: no need to eat one. Just steep a cup of our premium Formosa oolong tea flavored with sweet peaches. Please, be a peach. Give this tea a try.

Story

Cultivation of peaches began in China as early as 2000BC. The winds of trade brought peaches to Greece and Persia, where they were instantly accepted. The juicy fruit was also a big hit with the Romans, who cultivated it throughout the empire. From Italy, peaches made the leap across the Atlantic, where early settlers planted them throughout the East Coast. Soon they were so plentiful, local botanists thought of them as native fruits.

"This tea was excellent cold. You could see pieces of dried peach in the tea. It was slightly sweet due to the dried peach, but this was nice as it required no sweetener."

"I'm not usually a fan of oolong tea, but I love the peach flavor, and the fact that the oolong isn't as bitter as black tea."

"I love this tea! It is mild and so deliciously peachy that it has become a real favorite for me. I have only consumed it hot but I am sure it will make wonderful iced tea. "
