Southern Blends: Watermelon and Honey Flavored Green Tea from Luzianne

Style: Flavored Green Tea – Region: Blend

46 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 3/5
Oct. 12th, 2025

For a tea that seemed promising or at least interesting when spotted on a discount/clearance rack, I soon realized why it may have been cleared from inventory. First, the title of this tea is a little deceiving, because one of the two stated flavors doesn't even appear on the ingredients label, but instead, presumably...

Fancy Assam Tea from Simpson & Vail

Style: Assam – Region: Assam, India

95 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Oct. 8th, 2025

Classic Assam aroma, with a bit of a fruit under tone. Liquor is a deep amber/red (5 minute steep). Flavor is excellent Assam. Overall, an excellent blend.

Duke Cardiff's Black Tea Blend from Simpson & Vail

55 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Oct. 8th, 2025

Heavy fruit aroma. Liquor is a pleasant amber (5 min steep). Not a bad tea, just something I would not enjoy on a regular basis. Might be just what an Earl Grey fan is looking for. Might be a good dessert tea. Not for me.

Organic Cup of Calm® from Traditional Medicinals

Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: Blend

70 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Oct. 8th, 2025

This blend includes chamomile, passionflower, lavender flower, as well as catnip, rosemary, peppermint, spearmint, and stevia leaves. That sounds like it should be a pleasant mix to quaff, and indeed it is.

Cup of Calm lacks the disjointed, mulch-like taste of many large-list herbals and medicinals, instead comin...

Pineapple Strawberry from Hawaiian Natural Tea

Oct. 5th, 2025

This tea came in a 3-blend variety box, with sealed paper wrappers segregated into 3 plastic bags by flavor. Each blend (along with Mango Peach and Passionfruit Orange) also is sold in a 20-bag box unto itself, and purports to imbue the intrepid tea chugger with the spirit of the islands. Since I was there to photogr...

Turmeric Citrus Ginger Herbal Tea from Vahdam Teas

Oct. 3rd, 2025

Another car in a train of new turmeric-based teas by Vahdam, "Turmeric Citrus Ginger Herbal Tea" takes "Turmeric Ginger Herbal Tea" and adds a little bit of citrus, but not by much. This makes it a little bit better, but not by much.

The aroma and flavor are basically identical to "Turmeric Ginger Herbal Tea" (alr...

Sep. 27th, 2025

I got some of this tea at a vacation cottage in Hawaii (yes, more Hawaiian teas coming soon..but this first!). I was not impressed at all. The tea smelled pretty nice in dry form, with a lot of vanilla and a little chai, but tasted extremely weak, so that I had to use two bags per cup to get much flavor. Even then, ...

As should be expected, strong earthy aroma with a hint of fruit. the liquor (s min steep) is a deep brown with a slight red. Flavor is a nice strong black tea blend. This tea is an all sipping choice.

Sep. 23rd, 2025

Excellent 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...

Solid tea! The aroma is nice, the tea is tasty, and I enjoy the Alice in Wonderland theme. :-)

American Breakfast Tea from Simpson & Vail

80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Sep. 22nd, 2025

The aroma is a strong black blend, with a 'peachy' under tone. The liquor is a deep amber (5 min steep). The taste is very enjoyable, the Oolong addition mellows the blend a bit. This would be an all day sipping tea for me. I will work this tea into my regular rotation.

Turmeric Chamomile Herbal Tea from Vahdam Teas

Style: Chamomile Blend – Region: Blend

63 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Aug. 15th, 2025

This is a weaker version of Turmeric Ginger that still somehow has chamomile as the main ingredient by mass, but not by aroma nor taste! As such, one may be quite disappointed if expecting turmeric-flavored chamomile. Instead the effect is of faintly chamomile-flavored ginger with turmeric for color and advertisement...

Cool Mountain Mint from Bromley Tea

75 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Aug. 10th, 2025

Although I've seen it happen, peppermint tea is hard to mess up. One almost has to try: insert too many stems as filler, use old leaves that weren't dried right, or silently swap in weaker mints like spearmint. None of those are the least excusable, considering how common and relatively inexpensive peppermint is, an...

70 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Aug. 6th, 2025

Turmeric seems to play best with ginger (even though ginger isn't my favorite herb, personally), so I figured to try this first out of a 4-type variety pack of turmeric-based Vahdam herbal teas. I'll review the others here too; they're packaged and cut similarly to this, as appropriate for the herb being blended with ...

Champs de Lavande White Tea from Upton Tea Imports

Style: Flavored White Tea – Region: ?????

80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jul. 31st, 2025

Champs de lavande means fields of lavender in French. On the product page, Upton brags about how Yahoo Life named this their best tea of the year for 1925. And it is a good one, different from the usual, that is for sure. I tasted a lot more vanilla than lavender, and the floral, spicy notes combine well with the tanni...

Chinese Oolong from Bigelow Tea

75 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Jul. 29th, 2025

I expected a rather bland, uninteresting oolong, based on the big-brand mass production and long-ago reviews here, but came away rather impressed. The dry-bag aroma mixes toasted rice with moist hay or newly mowed alfalfa, while still picking up the underlying base tea.

The taste came across nice and strong, as i...

Jul. 25th, 2025

Outside one glitch (below), this was a reasonably good chamomile experience. As often noticed with this herb, the dry and in-cup aromas were weak, but the flavor came out rich, robust and undiluted by any of this tea type's usual flaws like filler use or poor-quality storage of the flower. The taste was a little more...

English Breakfast from Choice Organic Teas

78 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Jul. 23rd, 2025

When I think of what an English Breakfast tea should taste like, after having a few good-quality loose and bagged brands early on, most others have fallen short. However, this one hit the spot right away at a motel, and a few days later at home too, living up to the standard. It left me wanting to try more of both th...

Jul. 20th, 2025

Being biased against lemon in general, I was surprised for the better by this tea, for the most part. I expected a sour product, given the flavor, ingredients (lots of lemony stuff and the hibiscus/rose-hips blend seemingly standard for fruit teas). Instead, in both scent and flavor, this presented a smooth, sweet ve...

Jul. 18th, 2025

This tea smells like blueberries (dry and wet). It tastes like a blend of hibiscus, apples and natural blueberry flavor, which are the first three ingredients. In order the other ingredients are: orange peel, rose hips, elderberries, acerola juice granules, licorice root, aloe vera juice concentrate, blueberries. Ov...

Jul. 12th, 2025

Finding a variety of Bromley teas at a Holiday Inn Express in Nebraska, I figured to try a few, both there (which had good water) and on the well water at home. This one was a winner, probably the best motel-obtained green tea I've had, and up there with several decent loose-leaf Chinese green teas.

70 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Jul. 6th, 2025

This is a pleasant, orange flavored tea. It is made in Germany, like a lot of Upton's flavored and herbal teas are, but I don't know what the base tea is or where it is from. Despite the name, it is not very sweet, and the orange flavoring is fairly low key. It contains some orange peel, and it does smell quite a bi...

Jul. 2nd, 2025

This is a lightly smoky, jasmine flavored, dark green tea. The floral flavor is noticeable, but not very strong. It is well-balanced and not bitter, with a hint of ginger flavor. This is a good choice if you want a reasonably priced jasmine tea that is not overly floral.

Jun. 27th, 2025

This is a decent, budget-priced Assam. It lacks the full, malty flavor that a first-rate Assam should have, but it is not bad. A little thin and mild, but perfectly drinkable.

Jun. 27th, 2025

This is a smooth, easy to drink Ceylon tea. It is versatile - it goes well with milk or lemon, and it would probably be just fine on ice. The aroma is pleasantly earthy. You can't go wrong by choosing this.
