Just got a sample of birthday tea with my own signature blend, Coconut Wave. Birthday Tea has sprinkles in it!!! That's awesome! How can we add sprinkles to our blends?

That's a very good question. Xine...how did you get sprinkles in your tea?
Hrm...your blend is tempting me to place an Adagio order...

That is one of the perks of being an Adagio employee. Your signature blend can be uber-unique.

Well, I tried the Birthday Tea and it's yummy. My husband, who hates tea, even liked it!

I'm glad the Birthday tea is getting good feedback!!! We're hoping to offer it on the site as a regular tea, under flavors.

I ordered Xine's Birthday Tea because it sounded so good (and because I have a weakness for sprinkles). It came today, and it is wonderful. Well done, Xine. Well done, indeed.
As a side note, the extra sample in my order wasn't a mini-Birthday Tea, but Oolong #8. Extra yummies!

I got the Birthday Tea as my sample a couple of days ago, tried it last night, and Yum-O! It was like having a piece of cake. All the dessert with none of the calories.
Great blend!

Okay, I've kinda bit my tongue long enough...but I just have to know...
Is Birthday the same thing as Bolero with sprinkles added?
I got a sample tin in my last order. Need to give it a shot this weekend.

I doubt it. Xine says Birthday is a mix of the vanilla, cream, and caramel black flavors and Bolero's description says it is vanilla, almond, and Ceylon Sonata.

Interesting. The order receipt I got said to enjoy the free sample of Birthday and then described it just like Bolero, which is the main reason I hadn't tried it yet. I never did check it out on-line to see.

Sorry about the confusion. I neglected to update the invoice copy when we switched to Birthday Tea

No problem. I'm just excited to get any kind of free sample...and FWIW, I thought the Bolero was pretty good. Didn't want to make it sound like I didn't try Birthday because I hated Bolero.

I received a free sample of Birthday tea with yesterday's order. My partner and I had a cup of it last night after dinner and were really surprised at just how good it was. I think you have a hit.
