I don't normally enjoy licorice or anise, but here they magically blend beautifully. This is going to go on my regular "to get" list.http://ratetea.com/review/7112/http://ratetea.com/review/7112/Tue, 23 Sep 2025 12:47:53 ESTExcellent tea! I like this one a lot. Its flavor is pleasantly strong without feeling fake or overwhelming. It did not brew up bitter at all. I put the loose leaf into a basket in a Keurig-like device, as that’s what I currently use for brewing at work. I got two very nice steeps out of the sample size, so that helps justify the cost — which is in the usual range for good loose leaf teas. Overall I enjoyed this tea!http://ratetea.com/review/7111/http://ratetea.com/review/7111/Tue, 23 Sep 2025 12:38:35 ESTSolid tea! The aroma is nice, the tea is tasty, and I enjoy the Alice in Wonderland theme. :-)http://ratetea.com/review/5474/http://ratetea.com/review/5474/Thu, 25 Jan 2018 04:19:06 ESTStarry night is a favorite of mine. The coconut is the dominant flavor and gives it a slight sweetness, and the almond contrasts nicely. It doesn't need sugar, but isn't too desserty.http://ratetea.com/review/5297/http://ratetea.com/review/5297/Wed, 13 Sep 2017 17:33:30 ESTThis is a wonderful tea. Both the dry leaf and the brewed tea smell amazing. The coconut really comes out. The balance of sweetness with the black tea flavor is very smooth. It'd be possible to add sugar or honey, but it's plenty sweet enough without it. There seems to be some sort of sweet spice in the aroma, but that may be the almond flakes. In short, this is a new favorite!http://ratetea.com/review/5295/http://ratetea.com/review/5295/Tue, 12 Sep 2017 16:36:30 ESTThis tea is really quite impressive. Whether dry or brewed, its aroma and its flavor both remind me of smokiness from some sort of aromatic wood used for barbecuing -- though it is not "barbecue" flavored. Perhaps it reminds me of camping mixed with a cigarette smoke that somehow isn't gross? The smokiness is very pronounced. I'm not always into "smokey" teas, but this one really hits the spot when I am in the mood for that experience. I don't have a lot of experience with lapsong souchongs, but this se...http://ratetea.com/review/5292/http://ratetea.com/review/5292/Sat, 09 Sep 2017 20:56:26 ESTThe hint of banana flavor really makes this tea. I love it. It's great for when I'm craving something a bit fruity and a little sweet but distinctly caffeinated. The flavors blend very well, and the aroma is comforting. The tea itself is solid quality loose leaf. I bought this tea (and a couple others) at a convention (DragonCon) where guests were free to smell the assorted teas available. I'll certainly be visiting Tea & Absinthe's booth again!
