I like this tea. It has a nice sweet flavor. It tastes kind of citrus, and I usually don't like citrus flavors in tea, but it works well in this one. I added cream and sugar.

Sep. 21st, 2011

My overall impression of this tea was that it was relatively unobtrusive, almost bordering on bland. It was slightly too sour for my tastes, but I find berry-flavored herbal teas usually are way too sour, so relative to other similar offerings on the market, this wasn't too bad.

There's a slight hint of an artifici...

I am not a huge fan of these sour, fruity herbal blends with a hibiscus base. This one is good for what it is, but it's still too sour for my taste.

The cup brews a pinkish red hue, lighter than a straight hibiscus infusion. The flavor is sour but not overwhelmingly so (much less than, say, Tazo passion, or straig...

This tea has a nice dusty flavor. It's a little weak for my taste, but if I brew it for long enough it's good. I added cream and sugar.

I like this chai tea. The "ultra" has more spices in it and makes for a better tea (I like my chai spicy and make it with milk). I haven't been able to find this in stores lately though.

Sep. 19th, 2011

This tea is unsweetened, yet the cinnamon imparts a significant sweetness to it. As someone who likes bitter teas, this one is actually a bit too sweet for me, even without adding anything to it. But I do appreciate the way they do not add any sweetener.

The aroma is mostly of cinnamon and orange, but the base bla...

Strong coconut aroma and taste - not much of the other spices gets through. I like coconut so this was ok for me but I prefer cinnamon & clove type chai's better so don't buy this often.

I find that the Tazo Chai tends to have too much pepper flavor for me. Of all the chai's I have tried this has the strongest pepper taste and I just don' like it. I prefer cinnamon and cloves.

I drink this green chai as a "change of pace". It definitely has a different taste than the black chai teas and I like it occasionally.

I find that this brand of chai teabags doesn't do much for me. It seems to have a "cardboard box" after taste that I just can't get around. Smells good and tastes pretty good initially but just don't like the after taste.........

This is also my favorite chai tea and I have tried many, many varieties. I get my tea from Whole Foods stores and also get a large-to-go while I am shopping. They add some honey and vanilla to the tea and make it with milk. I always make/get my chai with milk In my mind, this is what Indian/Pakistani chai would tas...

Brews a dark color for a silver needle, but the flavor profile is more like what I'd expect for a silver needle.

Aroma is mellow, mostly vegetal, slightly floral but only weakly so. Sweet, no bitterness. I used a very long steep time (>10 min.) and it had only a little astringency.

This is not my favorite style...

I found this tea very weak. It tasted good; overall the flavor was smooth and the cinnamon was nice, but even when I brewed it until the water was cold, it was weak. Eh. I'll probably not buy it again.

This tea is awesome. It has a wonderful smoky flavor that blends perfectly with the vanilla and dominant clove flavor. It's the best chai I've tasted yet. I added cream and sugar.

If your looking to pull an all nighter, this is the tea to do it with. If your looking to just enjoy a cup of tea, there are better teas at the same price.

I think it is an average tea with not much of a difference between Twinings English Breakfast tea. If your just looking for a good breakfast tea, there are other black teas that are just as good, but a little cheaper.

Lightly smoky, like the base tea contains some Lapsang souchong...I initially notice the smoke more than the spice, but I also notice a lot of clove and ginger, and some cinnamon. I don't really notice the vanilla or cardamom--I always think you can add more cardamom as it's my favorite spice.

A very interesting tw...

This tea has a nice almond flavor. The aroma is overpowered by cinnamon. I don't usually like herbal teas, but this is a nice caffeine-free alternative to tea or coffee. I drank it with cream and sugar.

This one blended very well...I'm used to drinking green kukicha, but this has the roasted kukicha which I think blends well with the Yerba Mate. I can't notice the sencha as much, and I don't know what the Gingko would be like. I will say, the aroma is somewhat earthy, like a root or rhizome. There's a significant w...

This is a nice blend. Unlike other mint green teas, the mint doesn't overpower the tea, but it still dominates the flavor. I like the quality of the green tea. I added cream and sugar.

83 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Sep. 16th, 2011

Although this tea looks very dark in color, it had a slightly greener character among Wuyi oolongs. Aroma has a hint of smokiness, and some woody qualities, but primarily a background of honey-like smoothness that is fairly floral. The finish is clean and herbaceous, leaving a fresh taste of celery on the palate.

Bold, slightly prickly ginger presence, peppermint and cinnamon also noticeable in the aroma. Aroma is dominated by the ginger, peppermint, and cinnamon. Flavor is sweet. Very full-bodied. This tea tastes very good.

I find this is a rather centering tea, making one slightly more alert but also slightly more mell...

I found this to be quite a mild peppermint tea. It was good, but I think I prefer Celestial Seasoning's peppermint tea, as it's stronger.
