Cinnamon Apple Spice Herbal Tea from Celestial Seasonings
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: Blend33 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 1/5 Value: 1/5
Jan. 11th, 2011
I like both apples and cinnamon. I tasted neither in this tea. This is foul, chemical tasting brew. Though "brew," with its connotation of actual tea, gives this more credit than it deserves.

Orange Pekoe & Pekoe Cut Black Tea from Rituals
Style: Black Tea – Region: ?????70 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jan. 11th, 2011
I like this tea. I'm normally a green tea drinker, but these were left by the coffeemaker in a hotel I was staying at, so I took a few packets home. :) I enjoy this taste a lot better than a regular black tea. It tastes sweet. I never use sweeteners or milk, but I wouldn't recommend either to this tea. It has a sweet a...

Passionfruit Tulsi Tea from Organic India
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: ?????50 / 100 Aroma: 3/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Jan. 11th, 2011
I didn't like the way this tea smelled. I've been drinking tea for only a few years, so maybe I am still developing a smell for teas. Overall, I thought it was OK. I probably wouldn't order it again, but I am a boring green tea person.

Tamayokucha from Two Leaves and a Bud
Style: Tamaryokucha (Guricha) – Region: China57 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Jan. 11th, 2011
I am a big fan of green teas and tried this one today. It is a bit bland tasting, but that's kind of how green tea is in general. I thought it tasted better than it smelled. I would say this tea is about average. I would drink again, but not necessarily choose it if there were other teas to drink.

Himalayan Green from Teavolve
Style: Green Tea – Region: ?????73 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jan. 11th, 2011
Served in Teavolve.
I don't know exactly where this tea comes from, but it was more like a Chinese green tea than it was like other green teas I've had from the Himalayan region (Nepal, Darjeeling, etc.), although it definitely had some of the vegetal tones in the aroma characteristic of these teas.
The flavor wa...
Darjeeling Autumnal from SerendipiTea
Style: Darjeeling Autumnal Flush – Region: Darjeeling, India67 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Jan. 11th, 2011
The tea produces a nice golden cup. It has a strong astringent taste, and of course the muscatel that I've grown to love from Darjeelings. While it has the distinctive Darjeeling aroma, it does not have any delicate floral notes. the leaves are nice and large, and you don't need much to get a dark full bodied cup. The ...

Yellow Label Tea from Lipton Tea
Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend93 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Jan. 10th, 2011
I love this tea and drink it every day. I actually have it in loose form, which is great since I can decide how strong I want it, and I usually take about a tablespoon and steep it twice, the second time having a very pleasant liquorice-type flavour.
This is my first tea review, thanks for reading. :)
Cinnamon Plum from Republic of Tea
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend77 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jan. 9th, 2011
Very nice tea. I like drinking it to start off my day sometimes. Def taste the cinnamon. Plum, not so much. But the cinnamon taste is not overwhelming.

Red Rooibos Tea suffused with Hoodia Gordonii & Buchu Agathosma Betulina from Suffuse
Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: ?????60 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 2/5
Jan. 9th, 2011
Based on what I know of these two herbs, I would not like to consume this tea on a regular basis, but it was interesting to try. Thanks to Marlena for providing this one.
The aroma was rather strong and has many different components. Even though the blend is mostly Rooibos, the other herbs lend a very strong aroma...
The People's Green Tea from Republic of Tea
Style: Green Tea – Region: ?????60 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Jan. 7th, 2011
This tea is a bit weak compared to other brands of organic green tea. Altogether it has a pleasant aroma, and a good taste throughout. There are no unpleasant aftertastes at all. My only complaint is that it seems a bit weak, and as the last reviewer said, doesn't taste very fresh.

Assam from Two Leaves and a Bud
Style: Assam – Region: Assam, India70 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Jan. 7th, 2011
This is a very mild Assam. It is super smooth and has no bitterness whatsoever. To me it tastes like malty, liquid honey. It is super sweet, thick, and smooth. It has a sweet smell, similar to a raisin or apricot, with a slight tobacco aroma. When I taste it however, the only flavors that come through for me are the...

PG Tips Pyramid bags from PG Tips
Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend53 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Jan. 6th, 2011
I'm a fan of PG tips for mornings when I just want a quick cup of strong tea to wake me up. It has a strong, malty aroma, that translates through to the taste as well. it has a slightly bitter flavor, similar to english breakfast. There is a slight frutiness as well. a very basic morning tea.

I used to live in the UK and became addicted to hot tea. Now that I am back in the states, I drink more coffee than hot tea but I still have a nice cup of PG Tips in the evening. Sure is good!

Sweet & Spicy Caffeine Free from Good Earth Teas
Style: Flavored Rooibos – Region: Blend43 / 100 Aroma: 3/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 2/5
Jan. 5th, 2011
The aroma of this blend is transient, which I suspect is due to the artificial flavorings. The aroma of the cup is strong, spicy, and suggestive of sweetness, before it touches my tongue, but upon drinking, the aroma seems much weaker.
The flavor is smooth, with a fairly strong natural sweetness due to the cinnamon...
Yorkshire Gold from Yorkshire Tea
Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend60 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Jan. 4th, 2011
Brewing for about 4 minutes yields a nice rich golden color and a malty scent. Nothing fancy about the taste, but it's just what I look for in a quick breakfast (or early afternoon) tea- slightly bitter, malty, with a faint hint of fruit on top. This is of course a tea that would do well with a drop of milk and some su...

White Peony from Rishi Tea
Style: White Peony Tea – Region: Zhenghe, Fujian, China77 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jan. 4th, 2011
I'll start by saying I'm new to white teas, so I do not know exactly what a typical white tastes like. But the large leaves have a beautiful honey aroma that also came through after steeping. I could smell another slightly woody/nutty flavor, but couldn't identify it until I read the package "Pure White Tea with acc...

Darjeeling from Choice Organic Teas
Style: Darjeeling Black Tea – Region: Darjeeling, India43 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 3/5
Jan. 4th, 2011
Each tea bag is a 'pyrmaid infuser'. It is a good way to let the tea breathe a little bit, and spread out. The leaves have a lovely sweet floral scent. I steeped the tea for the 4 minutes recommended on the box. The tea has a faint floral fragrance, along with a hint of that Darjeeling muscatel. These aromas translate...

Pure from Zealong
Style: Oolong Tea – Region: New Zealand90 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Jan. 4th, 2011
Out of the package the tea has a lovely light floral scent. Not very strong, but immensely pleasing. I steeped the tea with freshly boiled (but not boiling) water. This resulted in a beautiful bright yellow/green liquid that had a light sweet smell. The taste is best described as light, yet full of flavor at the sam...

Twig Tea from Choice Organic Teas
Style: Kukicha – Region: Japan83 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Jan. 4th, 2011
This tea is pleasing. It has a sweet aroma with a smooth, toasty and nutty flavor. similar to Hojicha but without any green vegetal taste. It is very soothing. It also is reminding me of something from my childhood, but I can’t put my finger on what it is. I think it’s a tea we used to have at a Chinese restaurant ...

Peach Flavoured Tea from Dilmah
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon100 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Jan. 4th, 2011
Love this tea, and I drink it hot, with a little skim milk to cut the tannin. It has a wonderful aroma, and the flavour is fruity, but not sweet. It truly tastes of peach, which is a perfect match with the ceylon tea flavour. I have also used Paddington's Peach and Pickwick peach tea, which are also good, but harder t...

Ancient Shu Pu-erh Tuo Cha from Rishi Tea
Style: Ripened (Shou) Pu-erh – Region: Yunnan, China57 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Jan. 2nd, 2011
I'm not crazy about Shu Pu-erh; this one was better than average though. The single-serving size of these tuo cha's is very convenient.
Brews a blackish brown, like black coffee. Aroma is earthy, but with more nuance that I'm used to in shu Pu-erh. There's a creamy quality and a hint of a savory, chicken-soup lik...
Dong Ding Oolong Competition Grade III 2009 from Life in Teacup
Style: Jade Oolong – Region: Nantou, Taiwan80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Jan. 2nd, 2011
This is the first medium-roast Dong Ding I've tried; prior to trying this one I've only tried the lighter roasted styles of Dong Ding, or medium-roasted oolongs of other styles. I like this one very much.
I did not have much leaf and only had one opportunity to brew this once, using multiple infusions, but the resu...

Earl Grey Leaf Green Tea from Hyson
Style: Earl Grey Green Tea – Region: ?????83 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Dec. 30th, 2010
This surprised me; it's a whole-leaf tea with relatively large leaves; a few of the leaves are broken or torn but most are intact.
Fruity and floral aroma, even perfumey, with a slightly smoky finish. Gentler than any other Earl Grey I've had. The flavor profile is similar to a high-quality Jasmine, but the aroma ...
