Gypsy Cold Care® from Traditional Medicinals
Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: Blend63 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
May. 13th, 2013
Gypsy Cold Care is another choice from Traditional Medicinals (I prefer Throat Coat) to take when you are feeling sick. This is not a "recreational" tea - but if you have nasal congestion or a cough - this is helpful. Full of menthol - so beware of that. Add some honey if you wish.

Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: Blend77 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
May. 13th, 2013
When you are sick - especially if you have a Sore throat - you MUST try Throat Coat from Traditional Medicinals - available in most health food stores. It is loaded with Slippery Elm bark and literally helps coat and soother a sore throat. While, I don't drink this "recreationally" I love it when I am sick.

Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: Blend90 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
May. 13th, 2013
I suppose in general this is my "go-to" Tea brand. It is extremely reliable in terms of flavor and price. I find that Twinning bagged tea lacks the strength of flavor I began to crave after drinking Bigelow on a regular basis. Of course, I take my Bigelow Earl Grey with two tea bags, and a capful of lemon juice/one wed...

Style: Chai / Spiced Tea – Region: ?????67 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
May. 12th, 2013
A very peppery, spicy chai that with a surprisingly mild base tea.
The leaf is very finely broken, which made me afraid that this one would be too strong, but I find the black tea used as the base is very mild. I don't know where it's from, but it reminds me of some of the milder high-grown Ceylon teas.
Dominant...
Irish Breakfast Black Tea from Boston Tea Company
Style: Irish Breakfast – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
May. 10th, 2013
This blend is complex, and with each sip on the morning I notice something new about it. It's worth it!

Style: Tie Guan Yin – Region: Anxi, Fujian, China97 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
May. 9th, 2013
A very green oolong with a strong and lasting orchid aroma. Among my favorite green oolongs ever sampled.
A few years ago, when I knew considerably less about tea, someone brought a little packet of tea back from China and gave it to my mother as a gift. It was unbranded, marked only with "Guan Yin Wang", and had ...
Irish Breakfast from Twinings
Style: Irish Breakfast – Region: ?????67 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
May. 6th, 2013
This tea wasn't as strong as I expected, considering that it's an Irish Breakfast. Then again I've never been one to think that Irish Breakfast is strong, I've had stronger Assams. I'm a big fan of smells, so I appreciate its roasted aroma. I wouldn't go out of my way for this tea, but I liked it overall and would dr...

It's a solid black tea when you're on the go.

May. 5th, 2013
I received this as a free sample w/purchase of other teas and loved it. Whole leaves of black assam tea with the perfect amount of spice. Brewed to an amber color with warming aroma. Added a bit of raw sugar and milk for the most delicious chai in memory!

I like this tea. It has a strong, rich, smooth flavor and it's not bitter at all. I added cream and sugar.

May. 5th, 2013
This tea was very fresh when I picked it up. Dry leaf is largeish pieces of broken orthodox tea, with a pleasant aroma, typical of black tea but with hints of cinnamon and wintergreen, a good sign!
Brews a very dark color. Very aromatic, and with a very smooth flavor! Only slightly malty, balanced with fruity qua...
Lemon Lift Black Tea from Bigelow Tea
Style: Lemon Black Tea – Region: ?????53 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
May. 5th, 2013
Not a fan of Bieglow Teas - but my old company had them and Lemon Lift was better (to me) than the dreaded "Constant Comment" - an orange/spice. Just OK. Not a fan. I actually like the I love Lemon herbal tea (which is a tisane and contains no tea at all) a bit better when I have a cold. This is a step about Lipton...

Smells good but I hate the taste of this stuff. Ick.. I have never liked "orange spice" and this is no exception. Yick.

May. 5th, 2013
I love Darjeeling - and the "first flush" is expensive as heck. Adagio s a reliable source - but Republic of Tea also has a good one. (Loose only).Caffeinated and great in the morning.

Style: Flavored Green Tea – Region: Blend83 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
May. 5th, 2013
I love this bagged tea - yes, I know there are even better out there - but I keep comingback to ROT and their ginger peach green and black varieties. Great iced or hot. Subtly ginger-y and sweet without adding sugar.

May. 5th, 2013
Delicious but pricey this light tea is great both hot or over ice. If you are ever in Philly visit STEAP. It's a great tea shop and the lady who owns it is really knowledgeable.

Style: Oriental Beauty – Region: Taiwan / Formosa73 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
May. 5th, 2013
Definitely my favorite bai hao (oriental beauty) oolong yet. This is not a type of oolong I generally like, but I found this to be an atypical example of its style.
Significantly roasty aroma, and flavor is bolder, although less smooth.
I am curious...is this a competition winner because it was bolder in flavor ...
Jasmine Green (Formerly Monkey King) from Numi Organic Tea

Surprisingly great for a bagged tea. Loved it - scent and taste.

May. 4th, 2013
Overpriced - plus their NYC shop quickly opened and closed in a flash about 9 years ago - but this was fun to try. Grassy but not bitter. Smooth and easy to drink hot. Never tried it iced.

May. 4th, 2013
Super over-priced but the cute packaging is fun. This is one of my favorite from Tea Forte - but I am a huge Jasmine/Green fan in general. Richly scented with jasmine so it is floral and sweet smelling. Very good hot.

May. 4th, 2013
Not a big fan but it is better over ice than hot (in my opinion) naturally decaf and full of fruity and hibiscus notes. Super easy to find. Sweet and sour. (Sweet aroma, sour taste). Not a fave.
