Black Currant from Tea Forte
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Blend83 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Nov. 2nd, 2010
This the first Black Currant that I've had lately that hasn't smelled horrid. In fact, it is very nice and fruity, actually smelling and tasting like black currants. I wish more companies knew how to do theirs as well. I must give them low marks for their packaging, with is too much and probably why it is so expensi...

Prince Vladimir from Kusmi Tea
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend70 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Oct. 28th, 2010
The essence of Russian tea. It has an incense like quality that speaks of mystery. It is somewhat heavy, but light at the same time. It just takes you to a samovar on the sideboard and glasses of tea in the afternoon.

Holiday Tea (Sachets) from Harney and Sons

When will blenders cut back on the clove in Christmas blends? There's always too much and it ruins what surely has the possibility of being a very nice tea, as Jeff has said

If I can get past the smell, I'll rate this. To me, it smells like cat spray. I have not tried this yet, but I will gird my loins and do so

Trafalgar Anniversary Tea from Culinary Teas
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend70 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Oct. 28th, 2010
This has a bit of malt, a bit of astringency, maybe the barest hint of floral. It is a good tea for plain tea drinkers, but can take milk and sugar as well. The Brits are particularly good at blending teas that are always good if not full of nuance or "differentness". Most of the teas of this style I save for mornin...

Lady Londonderry Tea from Culinary Teas

Oct. 26th, 2010
Supposedly Princess Diana's favorite. This is a very feminine tea that you can't quite pin down. Is it floral, is it fruity, yes, it's really both. It smells divine and tastes really really good. It's not one I spend much time analysing, I just enjoy it. It is perfect for a ladies tea party and it is wonderful ice...

Oct. 26th, 2010
One of my all time favorites from when I first began to appreciate tea. Supposedly the Queen has this at her annual garden party, which I have been unable to attend. It really is just what it says, a blend of Earl Grey and Jasmine that works very, very well and is perfect for grand affairs, as it is smooth and delicat...

Earl Grey Citrus from Boston Tea Company

Oct. 26th, 2010
I pretty much agree with Alex, but I wasn't that taken with it. I think I like my Earl as is, with the exception of S&V's Victorian Earl Grey. Surprisingly, I think this company's Earl Grey in bags is better

Ginger Peach from The Tea Smith
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend23 / 100 Aroma: 2/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 1/5
Oct. 26th, 2010
Sadly, this was a dud from first to last. It smelled of chemicals and the taste of peaches and ginger were almost non-existent. They came out better with the addition of sugar, but on the whole, simply not worth it, as the base tea also was not very nice. It may just have been a bad batch.

South of the Border Chocolate Tea from The Tea Smith
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend90 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Oct. 26th, 2010
This is a really satisfying winter tea. I brew it for about 4 minutes with boiling water. At first you taste the mild chocolate and good tea base and wonder where the chilis is, but then your moth warms, as does your tum and you think, aah, that's really nice. The tea is a good base and the rest just adds to the fee...

Lilac Bouquet Tea from Simpson & Vail
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend83 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Oct. 26th, 2010
This is definitely not a tea for everyone. I am surprised that I like it, as I am not too fond of most flavored teas. However, this smells like lilacs and I suppose, tastes like them. It is very flowery, but not at all perfumey or overly sweet or cloying. It is very well done and would be an interesting "second" te...

Victorian Earl Grey Tea from Simpson & Vail

Oct. 23rd, 2010
Ya gotta love lavender and Earl Gray to love this, but it is the BEST I have ever had in this category. Make it a tad on the weak side if it is new, if you've had it awhile, put in a bit extra. Wonderful stuff.

For tea bag tea, this was quite nice. A fine, middle of the road Earl Gray.It was not too strong or too perfumey, probably one to turn to when you just want something pleasant

Earl Grey from Wedgwood
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: Blend53 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Oct. 13th, 2010
Broken-leaf, but not fannings like their English Breakfast. I brewed for only 1 minute. The cup was a very rich reddish brown color.
Aroma is extremely perfumey for an Earl Grey, and rather fruity and citrusy. Smells more like a normal orange than the bergamot orange too, and smells almost candy-like, but almost ...
Peaches & Ginger (Teabag) from Harney and Sons
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Oct. 4th, 2010
Harney is one of my favorite companies, as their tea is always of excellent quality. This is a good example, as the tea tastes of freshripe peaches with a nicely balance ginger zing. It is lovely iced and a bit of sugar, while not necessary, brings out the peach even more.

Sakurambo (Cherry) from Lupicia
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Blend77 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Sep. 29th, 2010
This tea has a fantastic aroma! A truly lovely sweet (but not sickly sweet!) cherry smell. And unlike most fruit teas, which I find tend to taste thin and bitter, the flavor actually holds up! It's pretty over powering actually, but in a good way. If you're a fan of fruit teas, definitely take the time to check this on...

Sep. 19th, 2010
I was expecting this tea to be fruitier and more citrusy than it was, but I was pleasantly surprised. Both the bergamot and citrus presence are balanced, and you really notice the underlying black tea. The aromas blend very well. I suspect that this may be due to the fact that this blend uses actual citrus peel rath...

Decaf Muscat from Lupicia

Sep. 18th, 2010
Muscat wine flavored tea... very strange yet intriguing! A fantastic smelling tea, however the flavor itself is a little lacking- not bad by any means but I found the novelty sort of wears off half way through the cup. I got this as a tea sample when purchasing other teas from Lupicia and while I enjoyed the experience...

Devonshire Earl Grey from Upton Tea Imports
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: Blend93 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Jul. 25th, 2010
This is the newest of Upton's Earl Greys. It has a floral, sweet scent, with a touch of Juicy Fruit gum. This carries through into the taste, but the bergamot increases here, so you are left with a very pleasant cup. They add a bit of lemon or peel to the blend, which deepens the tea. I particularly like it blended...

One of my all-time favorites. It has the full body of a good black tea, along with a sweeter flavor from the raspberries. This tea goes well with a light afternoon lunch or high tea.

#191 - Monks Blend from Tealuxe

Jun. 9th, 2010
To me, this tea doesn't have a strong aroma, but the flavor is excellent. It's very biting, very bitter. I recommend a fair amount of sugar to cut the bite. This and the Victorian Rose tea are my favorite teas.

#142 - Victorian Rose Tea from Tealuxe
Style: Rose Black Tea – Region: Blend87 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Jun. 9th, 2010
Overall, this is one of the best teas you can buy from Tealuxe. The aroma and flavor are both fantastic. This is a great tea to enjoy first thing in the morning, since it's not strong or biting, or for relaxing later in the day. Make sure to enjoy the smell.

October Revelation from The O Dor (Theodor)

Jun. 8th, 2010
This tea is like a more delicious version of Earl Grey. Maybe Russian Caravan meets Earl Grey...the sound of those two just makes my mouth water. The bergamot and orange hints make this a delicious full bodied tea - a perfect complement afternoon tea pastries.

I had to try this tea because my neighborhood tea sommelier told me it was based on Muscat wine...which I love. The aroma of this tea knocks your socks off...its sweet, flowery, almost with a fruit punch scent. However, the taste is no where near as strong as the aroma which i thought was odd. It wasn't a bad thing, st...
