Honeybush (Bushmen's Brew) from Numi Organic Tea
Style: Honeybush – Region: South Africa84 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Oct. 2nd, 2017
Pulling this bag out at random from the continuing multi-chapter saga that is the Numi variety pack, I recognized the name right away from having consumed Trader Joe's rooibos+honeybush tea. The teas I've tried from the variety pack so far have been either disappointingly lame or very good. This falls into the latter...

Style: Gunpowder Green Tea – Region: ?????66 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Sep. 28th, 2017
The "Temple of Heaven" needs a smoke alarm; it may be burning down.
This was my next new-tea attempt from a Numi variety pack, and mostly it's a good, clean, smooth, hearty cup. The tightly rolled nodules unfurl into the biggest leaves I've ever seen inside a tea bag, larger than those of many loose-leaf teas I've ...
White Rose - Velvet Garden™ from Numi Organic Tea
Style: Flavored White Tea – Region: ?????26 / 100 Aroma: 3/10 Flavor: 1/5 Value: 2/5
Sep. 25th, 2017
This is a profoundly weird drink, not only because its effluent of rose petals and white tea color-morphs like a chameleon from steel gray to gray-green to brown while steeping.
Velvet Garden or Velvet Elvis? The brew smells faintly like burning incense that used to waft out of a hippie neighbor's 3-room backhous...
Rooibos Chai (Formerly Ruby Chai) from Numi Organic Tea
Style: Rooibos Chai / Spiced Rooibos – Region: Blend86 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Sep. 24th, 2017
For some reason, I've had a hard time assigning high values to teas lately, being on a remarkable run of sampling products hovering within +/- 20 percentage points of mediocrity. Not anymore! This one's a clear winner, folks.
While not the strongest chai I've had, it's more than potent enough to offset straight ...
Jasmine Green (Formerly Monkey King) from Numi Organic Tea
Style: Jasmine Tea – Region: Hunan, China54 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 2/5
Sep. 24th, 2017
My bag of Numi's Jasmine Green came in an assortment box that was priced unusually high (almost 6 bucks at Wal Mart!). The box only contains 16 bags, which leaves the consumer feeling rather taken advantage of, especially at such a cost. Nevertheless, it's a fair and true counterargument if you holler at me, "Look, b...

Style: Flavored Pu-erh – Region: ?????70 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jun. 14th, 2017
My first pu-erh just had to be this, didn't it? As of now, I still haven't tried any other, and being an ignoramus of massive proportions about this type of tea, have no clue how it should taste. So what do I do? Drink a chocolate/nutmeg pu-erh with rooibos whose non-tea flavors (that I happen to like a lot) mask an...

Style: Rooibos – Region: South Africa60 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 3/5
May. 24th, 2017
This tea is okay, but not my favorite. The flavor is not impressive. Compared with other rooibos teas, this simply doesn't cut it. It doesn't go down as smoothly as other rooibos teas. I prepared mine with 6oz of water and steeped for 6 minutes. Compared to the Equal Exchange brand, I cannot recommend it. It's not bad,...

Style: Pure Chamomile Tea – Region: Egypt73 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jan. 1st, 2017
I obtained this product, with what may be the longest name I've seen for a tea, from a hotel room. For now it appears to be available just as a food-service product. As chamomile teas go, this is decidedly above average--smooth, sweet, rich in flavor, deep-golden in color, and a nice concoction to close the day. No ...

Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: Kenya70 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Dec. 13th, 2016
Wow, if the name of this tea were any longer, it would need to be hauled in on a freight train. Fortunately the flavor still is there by the time one is finished reciting its name. :-)
This for now is a food-service tea, apparently different than Numi's "Aged Earl Grey" (which I have not tasted yet), and offered...
Emperor's Puerh - Black Tea from Numi Organic Tea
Style: Pu-erh Tea – Region: Yunnan, China67 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Nov. 18th, 2016
I haven't yet tried too many pu-ehrs, but I'm starting to think they are not for me. This one has both a rich aroma and flavor of loam and crab cakes. If you are into that sort of thing, this tea is probably amazing, but not how I prefer my tea to taste. It's like I made a nice earthy tea, but used the same water I had...

Nov. 16th, 2016
This is a really nice green tea. Pretty mellow throughout, but with a nice crisp finish that sets it apart from other types of greens. Nice clean mouthfeel, not much lingering going on. I get a nice quenching feeling I find uncommon with a hot cup of tea.

I like this style of tea. I think it's a good combination between aroma and flavor.

Date: 12.07.2016. - 25.07.2016.
Place obtained: Bio&Bio; Ilica 70; Zagreb, Croatia
Price: 39,90kn - 2,22kn/teabag (5,88$ - 0,33$)
Teabags: 18 * 2g = 36g

Aromatic tea with, maybe, the best smell. But scent is the best part of it, and considering price, would rather go with something else.
Chocolate Rooibos from Numi Organic Tea
Style: Flavored Rooibos – Region: Blend53 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 2/5
Mar. 22nd, 2016
I get the sense that other people would enjoy this more than I did.
Brews up a mellow cup with a mild chocolate aroma, reminding me a lot of halloween candy as a kid, but less artificial. It's not the richest aroma, but it becomes a little more complex on drinking. I can notice the rooibos, but it's not dominant. ...
Jasmine Pearls from Numi Organic Tea
Style: Jasmine Pearls – Region: Fujian, China70 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Mar. 14th, 2016
I love to brew up pearled teas - and jasmine pearls ROCK for me - so I liked this one. Fun to watch the pearls unfurl when you brew them. Delicious jasmine/green/floral notes. Fun to drink and requires no sweetener.

Style: Flavored Pu-erh – Region: ?????67 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Jan. 27th, 2016
I'm not a big fan of Shou Pu-erh, and I think Pu-erh tea bags usually tend to be terrible, but I thought this was a well-executed blend, and I think the ginger blends quite well with the base tea.
The aroma is distinctive. Because it's dried ginger, it reminds me a little more of gingerbread cookies than fresh ginge...
Breakfast Blend (Morning Rise) from Numi Organic Tea
Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend67 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 2/5
Dec. 7th, 2015
Wow. This might be the best breakfast tea I've ever tried from a tea bag. This was in a box of Numi tea bags that my friend Emily gave me, thank you so much!
Very aromatic once brewed: the aroma is very complex too: malty, spicy, and with notes of hot chocolate and a hint of roast like black coffee. The overall ch...
Gunpowder Green Tea - Temple of Heaven from Numi Organic Tea
Style: Gunpowder Green Tea – Region: ?????73 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Aug. 26th, 2015
This has been my go-to, everyday green tea for a while now. Not as good as others I've tried, but I always keep it on hand since it is readily available at the local grocery store.
On the box it is mentioned that this tea is sourced from a fair trade garden in China, so it does appear to be a genuine Chinese gunp...
Chamomile Lemon (loose leaf) from Numi Organic Tea
Style: Chamomile Blend – Region: Blend100 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Jun. 13th, 2015
I've had a hard time finding a chamomile that I like, but this one I LOVE. Smooth, aromatic, perfectly balanced, soothing, and easy to brew. Instead of bitter, it tastes almost sweet in a delicately lemony way. This is chamomile perfection. :-)

May. 5th, 2015
I'm not wholly sure what this stuff is, but it's pleasant and I've especially enjoyed having a cup after some shamefully indulgent meals. The first time I think I did so in order to simulate desert, but there's not a lot of chocolate here. It's more like mild spice blend with a hint of muted chocolate. There's some ear...

The aroma is deep and earthy, a hint of hay and an almost seafood edge that is deeply satisfying to breathe in. The taste is bold and exotic, an exciting new palate.

Dec. 14th, 2014
Not bitter or otherwise bad, but not really for me. A pretty subdued Earl Grey with a light bergamot and a fairly nondescript black tea base. Preferred mine with a bit of milk. Would drink if it was the only thing available, but much better exists.

Dec. 3rd, 2014
I haven't tried a lot of breakfast blends and black tea isn't my favorite, so I was surprised by how much I enjoyed this one. It has a raisin-like flavor that is satisfying without being overwhelming. I drank my cup with milk and felt that it needed this. I suspect that milk and a bit of lemon juice would help it even ...

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.
