Original Blend Russian Caravan from Upton Tea Imports
Style: Russian Caravan – Region: Blend55 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Mar. 28th, 2020
The aroma is very mild. Liquor has an amber appearance. Flavor is mild. I'm a bit underwhelmed by this tea. I was expecting it to be stronger on all front. I will not bother with this particular blend again.

Hole in One (Nr. 820) from Carstensens Tehandel
Style: Miscellaneous Blend – Region: Blend95 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Mar. 22nd, 2020
Half-litre pot at home, made from an enchanting blend of green honeybush and rooibos leaves as well as pieces of apple, liquorice root, kiwi, strawberries, elderflower and rose petals - it is hard to fathom how all of this can fit into a meaningful combination, but it certainly does emit a lovely scent. Pours clear rob...

Half-litre pot at home, made from inch-long thin handrolled leaves - they look like tiny sticks. Pours clear light straw (against white china) with no sediment. Clear aroma of tea (yellow, to be sure, but the scent is not very different from that of green or white), with a faint touch of peach. Delicate bitter flavour ...

Green Tea from Lipton Tea
Style: Green Tea – Region: ?????50 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Mar. 22nd, 2020
This is the last of a set of food-service Liptons I got from a cafeteria, an individually wrapped bag that I finally have gotten around to trying and rating a couple months later.
The dry bag had little aroma, which is nothing new for most mass-produced or food-service green teas I've tried. The wet bag has a bit o...
Momotarōs (Nr. 767) from Carstensens Tehandel

Half-litre pot at home, made from a blend consisting of leaves of mostly yellow and some green tea, Japanese cherry blossom, sunflower petals, jasmine and pieces of dried peach - a very aromatic mixture.

Mar. 14th, 2020
Half-litre pot at home, made from small, broken green tea leaves mixed with yellow and orange pieces of dried mango of varying size and, well, maybe, indeed, cannabis, but I cannot tell as it looks indistinguishable from the green tea leaves. The loose mixture smells of citrus, mango and green tea - if there is any can...

Tangerine Orange Zinger® Herbal Tea from Celestial Seasonings
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: ?????90 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Mar. 13th, 2020
This is a very satisfying tea. It has less of a 'zing' than the Sangria tea or the Red Zinger, making it feel a bit easier on the stomach. The orange/tangerine notes remind me a bit of Tang or an energy drink. I mean this as a compliment, not an insult. It's a very good flavor. I know that this is a blast from the past...

Irish Breakfast from Fortnum & Mason
Style: Irish Breakfast – Region: Blend90 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Mar. 12th, 2020
Having never had Irish Breakfast tea before I was a bit taken aback when I opened the container to not find tea leaves, but little pellets like the low cost tea my brother buys! Having imported it all the way here I was really disappointed until I brewed some and discovered it makes the best milk tea ever.
This i...
Royal Blend from Fortnum & Mason
Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Mar. 11th, 2020
A rather strong and sharp tea that suits milk tea very well. I tend to mix this with other teas to make their flavor more mild. It’s my go to if I just want rich delicious milk tea with honey.

Watermelon Lime Zinger from Celestial Seasonings
Style: Fruit (Herbal) Tea – Region: Blend90 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Mar. 11th, 2020
This is probably my favorite Celestial Seasonings tea to make as an iced tea. We had a bout of hot weather for a few days and I whipped up some iced tea with this Watermelon Lime Zinger and it was so refreshing and delicious. It does a great job of cooling me down and it's a delicious flavor combination. I never feel t...

True Blueberry® Herbal Tea from Celestial Seasonings

Mar. 11th, 2020
I'll be honest, I wasn't expecting this to be so good. In my area, Mother Nature seems to be going through her "change" and we've been getting some wild hot and cold flashes. I'll go outside in a long sleeve shirt and border on sweating one day, then go outside in thermal pants, leg warmers, a down vest, two layers, an...

Chai Green Tea from Stash Tea

Mar. 9th, 2020
Since I like chais a lot in general, I thought I'd try this one on for fun and variety, after seeing it deeply discounted at a Sprouts. Maybe there's a good reason it was discounted a lot.
The dry-bag aroma is all cinnamon, and quite strongly so. The wet-bag aroma was almost all cinnamon, not quite as strong, but ...

Mar. 6th, 2020
This is one of my favorite blends ever. It has a strong but non-artificial flavor of roses and a creamy background of almonds. Goes great with milk if you can manage to make it strong enough.
I tend to sift through the tea in a larger container (tupperware or something) so I can pick out a balance of rose petals a...
Thé Mélange Russe (Russian Blend) from Upton Tea Imports
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend75 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Mar. 5th, 2020
I wasn't even aware that this is a variation on an Earl Grey when I sampled it; I thought it was more of a standard Russian blend. So it is not a well-named tea; since when is Bergamot an ingredient in Russian style teas? But it is a pleasant cup with a very nice fragrance. A middle of the road black tea blend with ...
