Lemon Zinger Herbal Tea from Celestial Seasonings
Style: Fruit (Herbal) Tea – Region: ?????70 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jan. 28th, 2015
Not the best hibiscus tea I've had, but quite solid. The hibiscus and lemon are both there without one overpowering the other. When you want a moderately tart tea that isn't very expensive, this would be a good choice. I enjoyed both Tropical Hibiscus (by Simply Balanced) and Passion (the full leaf version, by Tazo) b...

Peppermint Herbal Tea from Celestial Seasonings
Style: Peppermint Tea – Region: United States of America57 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Jan. 27th, 2015
Not too bad, but nothing to rave about. Straightforward peppermint, so if that's what you're craving it certainly works. I would enjoy it if in the mood for non-sweet peppermint, but otherwise it's underwhelming.
I would add that, though I don't know why, the second cup was superior to the first.
Falling Up from Positiffitea
Style: Flavored Rooibos – Region: Blend77 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Jan. 11th, 2015
Better than I expected! I have a sore throat as i drink this and it's satisfying my craving fine a drink that tastes healthful in a citrus-spice siry of way. The rooibos adds body rather than flavor. Cinnamon and orange are tge tastes present. They are prevailing without being overly intense. I'd definitely recommend t...

Moroccan Mint (Formerly Simply Mint) from Numi Organic Tea
Style: Mint Tea – Region: ?????57 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Dec. 1st, 2014
I'm not a spearmint person, so this tea isn't for me. However, if you do like spearmint, it seems to be of good quality and fresh tasting. Also, it blends well with milk.

Chamomile Lemon (Sweet Meadows) from Numi Organic Tea
Style: Chamomile Blend – Region: Blend97 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Nov. 30th, 2014
FINALLY, a chamomile tea I actually enjoy! Very smooth, almost creamy in flavor, balanced perfectly with the lightly citrusy lemon myrtle. This is the first time I've actually felt calmed and soothed by chamomile, rather than annoyed by it. There's no bitter aftertaste either, even after I accidentally brewed it longer...

Rooibos Chai (Formerly Ruby Chai) from Numi Organic Tea
Style: Rooibos Chai / Spiced Rooibos – Region: Blend85 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Nov. 24th, 2014
A nice chai! I enjoyed the spices and thought they blended well with the rooibos. I didn't try it with milk, but I suspect it would be great with the creaminess that would impart. I particularly notice the cardamom and the cinnamon, though neither is overwhelming. I think this tea could be particularly lovely if they h...

Rooibos (Formerly Red Mellow Bush) from Numi Organic Tea
Style: Rooibos – Region: South Africa80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Nov. 22nd, 2014
I haven't tried many plain rooibos teas, but I very much enjoy this one. The flavor is balanced and pleasant--nice for when you want a soothing, straightforward herbal tea. It infuses quickly to a deep red-brown. As I drink it, I can also easily appreciate why I've often enjoyed this as a base for other flavorings. The...

Honeybush (Bushmen's Brew) from Numi Organic Tea
Style: Honeybush – Region: South Africa60 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Nov. 19th, 2014
This actually reminded me a lot of black tea, which was surprising. I actually tasted a little bitterness, though I'm not sure where that came from as there is no caffeine in this tea.
If a caffeine free latte sounds good to you, this tea is pretty solid. It wasn't quite what I was expecting, but it wasn't bad.
Original Tulsi Tea from Organic India
Style: Tulsi / Holy Basil – Region: India70 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Oct. 23rd, 2014
The best word for this tea is comforting. It's a nice tea for winding down. I wasn't blown away with the herbaceous flavor, but for a bagged tea I felt it was pretty impressive. I can easily get two good cups out of a bag.

Black Cherry Berry Herb Tea from Celestial Seasonings
Style: Fruit (Herbal) Tea – Region: Blend60 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Oct. 22nd, 2014
Not as bad as I was worried this one would be. It's not a favorite, just because I tend to peter other fruit flavors, but it's certainly drinkable--a mixture of tart and sweet. I think cherry like this works best mixed with other flavors.

Country Peach Passion® Herbal Tea from Celestial Seasonings
Style: Fruit (Herbal) Tea – Region: ?????77 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Oct. 21st, 2014
Now this has become not only my favorite by Celestial Seasonings, but also my favorite tea involving chamomile--which normally I dislike. Here the chamomile is subtle and well-blended with the other flavors. The peach is also nice, and the tea has the right level of sweetness. In short, I like this one. :-D

Raspberry Zinger Herbal Tea from Celestial Seasonings
Style: Fruit (Herbal) Tea – Region: ?????70 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Oct. 20th, 2014
This is my favorite of Celestial Seasonings's offerings so far. Sweet, tangy, and straightforwardly fruity are how I'd describe this one. It has a bit of the "Jolly Rancher" candy flavor to it, but isn't excessive with the sweetness. I think the tartness evens out the sweetness much better for this tisane than it did f...

Tropical Crimson (Tropical Hibiscus) from Rishi Tea
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: Blend63 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 2/5
Oct. 19th, 2014
Not bad, but not quite what I was hoping for. Ginger, lemon, and hibiscus are all dominant flavors--which sounds like it should be awesome, but for some reason didn't blend perfectly in this execution. There's nothing offensive about the flavor, though. Oh, and I did enjoy it more with food, so perhaps it simply needs ...

Wild Berry Zinger Herbal Tea from Celestial Seasonings
Style: Fruit (Herbal) Tea – Region: ?????50 / 100 Aroma: 3/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Oct. 19th, 2014
I have mixed feelings about this one. The aroma reminds me exactly of a Jolly Rancher, which is great as a candy but strikes me as too intensely sweet and artificially-fruity for a whole drink. As I sip the drink, it's grown on me a bit. I think the hibiscus probably helps cut the sweetness. It's still not really right...

True Blueberry® Herbal Tea from Celestial Seasonings
Style: Fruit (Herbal) Tea – Region: ?????77 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Oct. 18th, 2014
Not bad! Lightly tart and simply blueberry, I enjoy this one. There's really nothing else going for it, but if you're in the mood for a straightforward fruit tea, it fits the bill. As people mentioned, the smell is more robust than the flavor. I tried this with milk and it made a decent (but not amazing) latte.
My b...
Alpine Berry Herbal from Two Leaves and a Bud
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: Europe63 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 2/5
Oct. 2nd, 2014
I have mixed feelings about this one. As a fan of fruity, tart, and hibiscus-based teas, I feel like I should like this one more than I did. There was nothing bad about it; for me the flavors seemed balanced, not overly intense. But at the same time, I don't find it brag worthy. Certainly worth a shot if you like herba...

Holy Basil, Rama (Tulsi) from Mountain Rose Herbs
Style: Tulsi / Holy Basil – Region: United States of America87 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Sep. 28th, 2014
Oooh, very tasty tulsi! Very smooth, lightly spiced with complexities that taste not-quite-floral, not-quite-citrus. Very soothing aroma too.
It can steep for a long time without turning bitter (which is good, because it diffuses slowly) and has a lovely light gold color. The water I used was fresh boiled. My first ...
Sunny Roo from Positiffitea
Style: Flavored Rooibos – Region: ?????73 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Sep. 15th, 2014
Highly enjoyable tea. This is basically a chai with rooibos as the base. While the flavors are pleasant and well mixed, I would appreciate a stronger flavor. At times, this one comes off a little thin. No bitterness or anything else problematic; I would just love to get even more of a good thing. :-)

Passion Fruit (Paradise) from Octavia Tea
Style: Flavored Rooibos – Region: Blend97 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Aug. 25th, 2014
Oh wow, now this is my kind of tea! (Okay, herbal tea, but still.) In both aroma and taste, a perfect balance of flowers and citrus. It's tart, but not excessively so, and sweet, but in a way that works for me. The tea brews up to a lovely pink and amber color. Despite the lack of caffeine, I find this tea invigorating...

Holy Basil, Krishna (Tulsi) from Mountain Rose Herbs
Style: Tulsi / Holy Basil – Region: India67 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Aug. 17th, 2014
A solid holy basil tea. Has the distinct basil flavor (though I've only tried one other so far), but with a hint of pepperiness. Definitely savory, not bitter. If you like a nice, smooth holy basil as a drink, this one is quite good. I do wish the taste was more robust, though, as it's relatively light--especially by t...

Nightly Calm (Bedtime Blend) from Twinings
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: Blend63 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Aug. 15th, 2014
Quite nice tea. Easily the best chamomile tea I've tried so far. Smoothly blends with the mint, and the tea isn't bitter or dominated by the chamomile. So apparently I don't mind chamomile when its bitterness isn't the main feature of the tea.

Sweet Dreams Herbal Tea from Bigelow Tea

Aug. 14th, 2014
The mint isn't bad and dominates the smell, but in the drink I can taste too much of the chamomile. Very meh. If you like chamomile this one likely won't be bad, but it just isn't right for my palate.

I Love Lemon® & C Herbal Tea from Bigelow Tea
Style: Fruit (Herbal) Tea – Region: ?????70 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Aug. 13th, 2014
Easily my favorite tea (well, tisane) by Bigelow so far! I'm a fan of lemon, hibiscus, and rosehips, so I was looking forward to trying this one and was not disappointed--at least, for the first cup. The second cup was WAY weaker, even after a long steeping.
The first cup was a very balanced and perky fusion of the ...
Peppermint Herbal Tea from Bigelow Tea
Style: Peppermint Tea – Region: ?????73 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Aug. 6th, 2014
This is my first minty tea. I generally prefer peppermint over spearmint, so I was curious about this one. Definitely a clean, fresh taste. Delightful! I'm not always craving peppermint, but when I am this simple cup would satisfy that craving quite nicely without involving actual sugar (which I like to avoid, particul...

Three Ginger from Pukka
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: ?????63 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Jul. 30th, 2014
When I first smelled the tea bag I got a whiff of spicy dust that inclined me to think this would be a pretty pungent cup. In truth, it was one of the more muted ginger teas I've had. I felt that the mixture of different roots was a good choice, but would have preferred a tea with a "brighter" or more intense flavor. T...
