910 Caramel with Caramel Pieces from SpecialTeas
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend90 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Mar. 9th, 2010
I have tried many caramel teas, but this one is my favorite. It tastes like real caramel and quality tea. The aroma is heavenly and the price is half of what you would pay at one of the new trendy tea shops. I love this tea!

Shan Tuyet Snow Green from Upton Tea Imports
Style: Green Tea – Region: Vietnam77 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Mar. 9th, 2010
Brews a rich golden color. The aroma of this tea is more similar to a dragonwell tea than any other green tea I've tried, but the overall experience of drinking it is very different. Very aromatic, with a slightly toasty aroma. The flavor is muted and the tea has a cooler quality than dragonwell, with a hint of smok...

Roasted Tea Hoji-cha (16 ct.) from Yamamotoyama
Style: Hojicha – Region: Japan63 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Mar. 9th, 2010
These teabags are strong, with a generous quantity of leaf. The roast is noticeable but light, and this hojicha has a fresh, crisp quality, more like green tea. It's not terribly complex, but overall, I think this is a very good tea that offers outstanding value, especially among teabags.
These teabags are versati...

Mangalam Estate Assam FTGFOP from ITO EN
Style: Assam – Region: Sivasagar, Assam, India53 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Mar. 8th, 2010
Note:
I am reviewing the Mangalam FBOP
not a typical malty assam, smooth and mild. Aroma and flavor are lacking, but for the price a great bargain.
934 Chocolate Cream with Cocoa Pieces from SpecialTeas

Mar. 8th, 2010
Very disappointed, has a waxy chocolate flavor. Even with the addition of milk and sugar it was hard to get past the the fake tasting chocolate flavor.

Earl Greyer from Republic of Tea
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: ?????77 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Mar. 8th, 2010
A perfect Earl grey, strong black tea with a strong bergamot aroma that paints the background of this tea, not overpowers it. The black tea blend stands up to the aroma of bergmot and isn't harsh or astringent.

803 Fine Irish Breakfast Blend from SpecialTeas
Style: Irish Breakfast – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Mar. 8th, 2010
Smooth and silky on the tongue, with a malty aftertaste that Irish breakfasts are known for, but less malty than most. Regarding value, worth twice the price paid Overall a great value, rich flavor, silky smooth mouth feel.

Black Tea from Lipton Tea
Style: Black Tea – Region: ?????47 / 100 Aroma: 3/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Mar. 8th, 2010
Well....it tastes like it tastes. I could probably ID this tea blindfolded. It reminds me oddly of yerba mate and never brews very strong. Aroma is pretty much nil. I only really drink this tea at hotels.

Orange, Passionfruit Jasmine Green Tea from Lipton Tea
Style: Fruit Green Tea – Region: Blend30 / 100 Aroma: 2/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 2/5
Mar. 8th, 2010
Aroma is intense and fruity, but muddled. I find that the jasmine doesn't blend well with the other aromas. The green tea is noticeable in this blend--but I'm not crazy of their choice of green tea to blend with the other ingredients. This tea is on the acidic side; it's bold flavor doesn't mesh well with the aroma....

Organic Hojicha from Traditional Medicinals
Style: Hojicha – Region: Japan57 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Mar. 7th, 2010
On the heavily roasted and dark side, more coffee-like in aroma and fewer of the green tea qualities come through. Good, but not terribly complex.
There also isn't the most generous quantity of leaf in the teabag. The company recommends 8 oz. of water per teabag, and a long infusion. I brewed it this way and it w...
Organic Wuyuan Ruikang Hairpoint from Upton Tea Imports
Style: Green Tea – Region: Wuyuan, Jiangxi, China83 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Mar. 7th, 2010
Upton seems to excel at inexpensive, organic Chinese green teas, and this one is no exception. The thin, wiry leaves have an interesting appearance both before and after brewing.
Aroma is very grassy and a little bit vegetal, with some dark floral tones almost more suggestive of a black tea. Grassier, sweeter, and...
Tomurcuk Earl Grey Tea from Caykur (Çaykur)
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: Turkey70 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Mar. 6th, 2010
The dry leaf is finely broken and has an aroma mostly of bergamot. But upon brewing this tea I was surprised to find that it has a bold black tea presence with only a hint of bergamot in the cup.
The black tea is also very interesting. It's malty like an Assam, but very gentle, lacking the strength and richness th...
Organic Imperial Bai Hao Oolong from Upton Tea Imports
Style: Oriental Beauty – Region: China47 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 2/5
Mar. 4th, 2010
I found this tea to be weak in aroma and flavor. The aroma is slightly earthy but lighter than typical for a bai hao oolong, with light floral and vegetal tones, a hint of spice, and a suggestion of fruitiness. I think it's a stretch to call the aroma "complex" because it's so weak. The color of the cup is surprisin...

Chun Mee (Moon Palace) from Upton Tea Imports
Style: Chun Mee – Region: China80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 5/5
Mar. 2nd, 2010
This tea got my attention with the first sip--another chun mee of unusual quality, like rodents of unusual size. Similar to ZG42 (Chun mee dao ming) in how inexpensive it is relative to its quality, but very different in character.
The aroma is very complex: significantly grassier than any other Chun Mee I've tried...
Green Pu-Erh Tuo Cha from Upton Tea Imports
Style: Raw (Sheng) Pu-erh – Region: Yunnan, China80 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Mar. 1st, 2010
Very smoky, but in an exceedingly mellow way, totally unlike gunpowder or lapsang souchong. This tea has a remarkable smoothness to it, unlike any other green tea I've tried, and if it weren't for the smokiness I'd be tempted to describe it as creamy. Cool and clean tasting, yet without bitterness. Full-bodied, and ...

Formosa Jade Oolong from Upton Tea Imports
Style: Jade Oolong – Region: Taiwan / Formosa57 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 2/5
Mar. 1st, 2010
Extremely mellow...the aroma is more like that of a floral honey than other teas. Light in color. Sweet, with almost no bitterness, sourness, or astringency. Compared to other Tung Tings I've tried, this tea is less like other oolongs and more like a Pouchong. In my opinion, it's too thin, and it has a bit of a fis...

Chamomile Herbal Tea from Celestial Seasonings

It's ok. Nothing really sets it apart from other chamomile teas I've tried. It's standard.

Oolong Fine Grade from Upton Tea Imports
Style: Oolong Tea – Region: Taiwan / Formosa57 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 3/5
Feb. 28th, 2010
This tea is one step up (in price and presumably quality) from TT11. It lives up to my expectations. Surprisingly, however, the leaves are more finely broken in this tea. Visually, I'd expect this to be the lower grade tea, but actually brewing the two teas demonstrates otherwise.
I find this tea to have signific...

I don't like it. If you accidentally steep it too long, it tastes horrible. It doesn't have a natural taste.

Earl Grey from Darvilles of Windsor

Feb. 27th, 2010
I found this to be fine quality, aromatic tea with the right amount of bergamot flavoring. Although I bought mine on sale, I think the quality merits a higher price for a high grade English tea.

Throat Coat® from Traditional Medicinals
Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: Blend43 / 100 Aroma: 3/10 Flavor: 1/5 Value: 3/5
Feb. 27th, 2010
This tea is a horrible combination of astringent and cloying, with a taste remarkably reminiscent of those dreadful Fisherman's Friend lozenges. On the other hand, it works. Short term, but when you have a sore throat you'll take short term.
