Black Currant from Murchie's Tea & Coffee Ltd
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend85 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Nov. 8th, 2017
Three times since 2003, I have marveled at the smell of the loose-leaf black currant tea samples in Murchie's Victoria store. Zero times I've come back with any. Don't ask; I don't know why. Guess it just fell out of the line behind other teas that ended up stuffing our luggage.
Rectifying that negligence has bee...
Assam Pure from Murchie's Tea & Coffee Ltd
Style: Assam – Region: Assam, India87 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Dec. 22nd, 2016
Murchie's website touts this Assam as, "especially good where water conditions overpower more delicate teas". As someone who likes strong and unpretentious teas, that caught my attention, even though my well water is good. And it's cool of them to be considerate of folks with poor water and offer a tea supposedly int...

Irish Breakfast from Murchie's Tea & Coffee Ltd
Style: Irish Breakfast – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Dec. 13th, 2016
I haven't tried many Irish style (Afternoon or Breakfast) teas, so my opinions thereon may not be worth the electrons wasted to paint these letters across your screen. Regardless, I haven't had a bad one yet. Murchie's various black-tea offerings have proven to be right up in the top echelon of any black teas I've ha...

Earl Grey Cream Tea Bags from Murchie's Tea & Coffee Ltd
Style: Earl Grey Cream – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Dec. 8th, 2016
Looking at the teabag boxes in-store, I wasn't sure if this would be a worthy purchase or not. I never had tried vanilla-flavored EG black tea before. With a combination of:
1) The really sweet, pleasant smell of the loose-leaf sampler as I crushed some between fingers and
2) The favorable Canadian/U.S. dollar e...
Cozy Caramel Rooibos from Murchie's Tea & Coffee Ltd
Style: Flavored Rooibos – Region: Blend87 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Nov. 4th, 2016
As noted in my review of Trader Joe's rooibos, its earthy, haystraw-like flavor was something of a turn-off at first, but grew on me with time. This strongly flavored rooibos from Murchie's, which uses apple pieces and calendula petals as well as caramel flavoring, bypasses the "grow on you" stage and thrusts itself s...

Golden Jubilee from Murchie's Tea & Coffee Ltd
Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend85 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Oct. 29th, 2016
The tea tastes much like Murchie's Afternoon Tea (formerly Empress Afternoon), and also is a blend of black teas from various regions, but has a slightly weaker aroma--hence the slightly lower rating. Regardless, the flavor is similarly rich and full, the body robust, the color dense and dark after a 5-minute bath (wi...

Blueberry Green from Murchie's Tea & Coffee Ltd
Style: Flavored Green Tea – Region: Japan77 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Oct. 27th, 2016
Upon seeing this new tea for sale in the Victoria Murchie's store, there was no question I would get it and like it. Murchie's consistently delivers good to great tea, and blueberry is one of my favorite flavors; therefore, I bought a 50-bag box straight up.
The risk was rewarded. The green tea shines through an...
Murchie's Afternoon from Murchie's Tea & Coffee Ltd
Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend87 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Jun. 30th, 2016
This is also known as "Empress Afternoon" after the Empress Hotel in Victoria BC, down the street from Murchie's main tea store, and where this brand is served with ritual formality every afternoon. I see why. No English "afternoon" tea I've tried clearly beats this blend for darkness, richness and fullness of flavo...
