Good yet mild smell, bergamot smells light...bold flavor that dissipates quickly, slightly bitter taste but not bad, nothing special though...just glad it's bold!

nice raspberry smell of decent strength, taste is slightly musty, although this teabag is fairly old....taste is medium strength and with a tinge of lemony bitterness at the end...I really like to try this again with a newer bag...cool red color to this tea though!

good smooth and mellow smell...bergamot is soothing with this one! Just a bit too subtle of a smell though. Flavor is bold, but taste is a bit too bitter...I've probably had better earl grey's out there...

Tropical Black from Wegmans

Sep. 5th, 2014

black tea with equal parts tropical fruit smell...brewed on the higher end of both leaves and time brewed...taste is more bitter than I was expecting...and less fruity, but fuller flavor. Mostly black tea taste here, with a hint of fruit. (NEXT TIME BREW 5 MINUTES INSTEAD OF 6?)

good minty smell of course...black tea undertones...very disappointing taste...not nearly as minty as one would expect from the smell...boring black tea with a touch of mint..that's all this is

smell is very good and is exactly what you would expect from the flavor it is suppose to be. Flavor goes in a different direction though...tastes a bit like black licorice to me. Slight spicyness on the end...good, but would be better if it tasted as it smells.

Smells like peaches and cream oatmeal!! mmm! Best smelling tea ever! Unfortunately all that richness and flavor in the smell turns into a slightly bitter black tea that actually has only mild fruit flavor. The black tea itself is bold though.

smells kind of musty...slight little burn in the nose...1.5 tsp were in my pot for 4 mins...give the perfect amount of bold flavor...taste is like a smooth black tea but a little boring...not quite as good as it cools...decent but not exciting...longer steeping seems to pick up more bitterness (or perhaps its the lower...

very good smell and taste....the strength is just about right too...steeped 4 minutes but didn't boil as directed. Perhaps a bit longer steep next time. The amount of flavoring seems spot on....not overpoweringly artificial or an underpowered hint.

Good peach/apricot smell, flavor is medium with a hint of ginger (unique...I like it!!), the black tea provides a good base. The more you drink the less you taste the other flavors.

very good lemon zest smell, taste falls a bit flat though...the lemon-y-ness definitely becomes more mild and I wish it didn't quite so much...however, this seems like a good tea for when you're sick!
