Dec. 31st, 2019
Half-litre pot at home. Pours nearly clear nut brown with no sediment. Clear aroma of Rooibos tea, with pronounced notes of walnuts and touches of maple syrup. Sweetish flavour of Rooibos and maple syrup, with notes of walnuts and touches of black tea and hints of caramel. Smooth palate, leaving nutty notes and touches...

Half-litre pot at home. Pours clear fudge brown with no sediment. Clear, intense aroma of baked apples, with notes of cinnamon, touches of black tea and hints of caramel. Mildly bitter onset, giving way to sweetish notes of apples and acidic and spicy hints. Clean and bitterish palate. Easy to drink, especially enjoyab...

The scent of this was delicious. The scent of the tea after brewing was delicious. But, there wasn't much to the flavor. At the end of the cup, after the tea had cooled, the notes sat on my palette better. But, something about the notes bypassed my palette when the tea was hot. This might be good as an iced tea. But, a...

Style: Miscellaneous Blend – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Nov. 27th, 2019
Here's the first tea I've tried from a Revolution variety pack, and it was a pleasant surprise! The ingredients list looked promising, with a blend of Ceylon, Darjeeling and "Foromosa" (presumably Formosa, misspelled) oolong, French lavender flowers, and bergamot oil.
It was impossible not to compare this to anothe...
Paris from Harney and Sons
Style: Miscellaneous Blend – Region: Blend68 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Apr. 1st, 2019
Aside from the blackcurrant, the flavoring in this is rather subtle. The tea base is moderately rich and has a darkness in color as well as taste. It is almost a bit too tart but that's where the faint vanilla and caramel rescue it to give it some sweetness.
It's a good example of blending done well with flavoring...
Turmeric Amber Sun from Numi Organic Tea
Style: Miscellaneous Blend – Region: Blend93 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Dec. 3rd, 2018
I'm not super crazy about the aroma of this tea, it has that weird turmeric smell. But the smell is very mild and it's really the taste that matters most. I've never had a turmeric tea before, but this one tastes pretty good to me. It is rich and smooth and has a unique flavor from the turmeric. If you've had turmeric ...

Smells very fruity but not in a very pleasant way, it kind of smells like grape cough syrup to me. I’m not a huge fan of the taste either, it’s pretty watery and leaves an artificial after taste in my mouth. It’s not astringent or bitter which is how I normally like my tea, but this tea is so bad that I wouldn't ...

The aroma smelled just like a Christmas tree. Great for a winter’s night by the roasting fire.

It's a really nice tea! It tastes like Christmas, that is it has hints of evergreen in its flavor and smell.

Oct. 22nd, 2018
The aroma of this tea is one that reminds me of cold winter nights, bundle up by the fire place near a Christmas tree. While I'm usually not one for black teas this is the exception I would make. It's flavor is a flavorful black tea with hints of licorice reminds me of the tea my grandmother used to make, with a bit mo...

Oct. 20th, 2018
I'm going to call this a "temporary" review. While I'm going to endeavor to be accurate, I actually drank this tea while in the middle of a VERY long work day, and forgot to do the review on the spot. As such, I'm reviewing based on a memory from almost a day ago. The likelihood is that I will be updating this review o...

I'm not really an impartial reviewer when it comes to salted caramel... anything, unfortunately. I've never found anything that is salted caramel flavor I liked, they always are either way too salty or like drinking caramel... neither of which do I find appealing. However, I received a sample of the Stash Salted Carame...

Decent breakfast tea, not really my style but not bad. However, the name is misleading. There's nothing "Christmas" about it!

Oct. 2nd, 2018
I'm a little sad that this tea is being discontinued. After numerous fruit tea failures, this one actually lives up to the expectation. It has a distinctly blueberry aroma and, as expected, tastes like a raspberry/blueberry blend. If they weren't discontinuing it, it would likely find a home in my collection. I may act...

Nice blend with a 'bite'. Good flavor, pleasing aroma, dark liquor. Very enjoyable.

Fans of unabashedly fruity teas, this one's for you. Get some today. "Sweetheart" is well worth giving love, though in a somewhat unexpected way.
While on their website replenishing stocks of other Murchie's teas, I saw this new loose blend, checked the ingredients (including the pieces of coconut visible in the ph...
Gingerbread Black Tea from Teavana
Style: Miscellaneous Blend – Region: Blend70 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 2/5
Jan. 14th, 2018
I got this tea for 16$ in an 8-ounce tin during a closing sale, so for me, the value was more of a 4.0(80 total rating if accounted for). One thing I did notice was these large popcorn pieces that add little to no flavor to the blend which were used as a filler, but this only took up about 5-10% of the container. But T...

Jan. 12th, 2018
I received this as a sample sachet in my Harney and sons order along with 2 other loose leaf samples. The aroma is like a spicy fruit, but spicy is a sort of sour way, I do not smell any caramel though. Overall, very lovely. The Flavor tastes like the aroma but has much more of a "tea" taste to it. And has hints of car...

Oct. 28th, 2017
In the roller-coaster experience that is the Numi variety pack, I've hit a deep dip again. At least, unlike some literal roller-coaster riders, I didn't retch.
For the most part, the teas I've tried so far containing turmeric have been underwhelming, at best. This one strikes me as a randomly conceived herbal vec...
Mate Lemon Green Tea - Rainforest Green™ from Numi Organic Tea
Style: Miscellaneous Blend – Region: ?????54 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Oct. 7th, 2017
This tea has multiple-personality disorder. At times, it tasted like a smooth, non-sour, lemony yerba mate/green tea blend in rather delicious synchronization, a whole noticeably better than the sum of parts. Neither mate nor lemon are favorites of mine, yet the balance of them somehow worked in those sips. I almost...

Feb. 25th, 2017
This tea was heavenly. It is definitely a nice bedtime tea. As usual with revolution teas, it is a bit pricey, since it is more like a loose leaf tea in a tea bag (no cheap tea bags filled with tea ground to "dirt" or "dust").

I really enjoy this tea. Not much difference between it and the regular peppermint tea though. Good even without sweetener.

Whoa, where to start with this sublime face-slapper. Perhaps the best one-word characterization of both the smell and aroma, in a good way, is "explosive".
Because there are so many ingredients, all natural and organic, more discriminating palates than mine probably can conjure up all manner of nuances, notes, un...

Jun. 30th, 2016
Personal preferences and tastes drive all these ratings, but none more than here. Man, was this tea ever a revolting turn-off. The smell raised red flags, and the taste screamed, "never again!"
See, I like teas with strong flavors--as long as I like the flavor itself. This tea uses a decidedly, intensely smoky ve...
