White tea from Adagio

I was wondering does anyone know if the flavored teas at adagio are flavored with fruit or are they artifical flavored? Thanks

Charles--

Thanks for the post.

We use both fruits and the essential oils to flavor the teas.

Hope this helps,

Hi :D

I'm not sure how to ask my question, but I'll give it my best shot.
What type of white tea is used in making the flavored whites, like the peach and the tangerine? The taste of the tea is excellent, even on the second steeping, and the leaves look very nice. How does the white tea used differ from some of the other white teas adagio sells?

Best wishes,
Stephenie

This is the *now famous* White Peony (or "White A Capella" as we call it). Here is the link:
