Anyone ever bought from them? Thinking about buying some for my mother's birthday.

I mostly stick to Upton Tea and Teavana, sorry. But... maybe try one of those sites? I really like them!

Also going to kind of piggy-back on your thread here - does anyone have any sites they go to that are good specifically for oolong or pue-erh tea? I know there are a lot of specialty vendors for both of those out there but I can't remember them all that well and they're kind of hard to sort out.

Well, I can't say anything about their normal teas blends but I have bought a few of the fandoms. They are really good or the ones that I've gotten are good. I suppose the only thing to note is that you need to find a good tea strainer or tea bags.

Ah, thanks. Seeing the fandom tea blends was really weird for me because I was on that site for unrelated reasons and BLAM FANDOMY FANS INVASION! :D Yeah, I'm looking at the loose leaf samples, already have teabags! :D

LOL, I feel so happy being indirectly responsible for you guys discovering this. I've had a lot of fun browsing people's fan blends on there. :D

If possibly definately try blends by Cara McGee. They're aare wonderful. I know she has has tea blends in the following fandoms: Sherlock, Harry Potter, Sailor Moon, Supernatural, Avengers, Hunger Games,Doctor Who, The Hobbit, Teen Wolf, Cabin Presuure....Actullay the list is quite long. But, she has a huge variety of teas.

Same anon just signed in. I think they are trying to cover all the fandoms out there.

Also, a link to all of Cara McGee teas.

I came across this person's tumblr while looking for Adagio resellers or group buyers in Canada. They're a BNF apparently?

It's a bit of a shame though that I had to cancel my cart of her Molly/Martin crossover ship flavour tea and some Person of Interest ones I found. Shipping to Canada is frightening D:

Well, I didn't know that she was a BFN, but I do like her tea blends.

Yeah, I remember seeing the price for shipping to Canada. Woof. Since I live in the States, it's not such a problem, but it's still sad. 8C Hopefully, you'll get to try some of the teas.

If fandom tea's a fandom, she's a SUPERSTAR on Adagio ha.

I think I can compromise somewhat by using the blend "recipe" as a cheat sheet and visit the local shops that carry the specific teas, and then just blend them myself (or have the clerks do so for me). So many of these flavours that folk pick out really do seem tasty.

Agree. Cara's blends are pretty good. :> /bought a bunch when they were having a Sherlock sale.

Yes! I love them; they're my favorite teas. If you're comfortable PMing me your email, I can send you one of the free $5 gift certificates you get. You can usually try a sampler or two with that. :)

Re: Adagio Teas

[personal profile] anonymouslyyours 2013-03-22 02:12 pm (UTC)(link)
That would be great! :) I did already buy an item from them this week so if the certificate is for first time customers... oops and thanks for thinking of me!
