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.

Island Green Loose Tea from Charleston Tea Plantation (American Classic Tea)
Style: Green Tea – Region: South Carolina, United States13 / 100 Aroma: 1/10 Flavor: 1/5 Value: 1/5
Feb. 26th, 2010
this tea was a major disappointment. was hoping it would be good! flat, tasteless. pale green, almost clear liquor, which is fine in a high quality tea, but this just lacked any vibrancy, life, or flavor.
while it was fun to get it, and have the tin, i wouldn't recommend this tea at all unless us want to say u trie...
Oolong Standard Grade from Upton Tea Imports
Style: Oolong Tea – Region: Taiwan / Formosa53 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Feb. 26th, 2010
Upton has renamed their teas or changed their item codes between TT10 and TT11, which makes discussing them confusing. The old TT10, Season's Pick Formosa Fannings, was discontinued. This is the same tea that used to be called TT11 but it's now TT10. (Update, they now renamed it back to TT11. lol.)
This is a radi...
Organic Echinacea Plus® from Traditional Medicinals

Feb. 26th, 2010
I'm giving this tea such a high marks because I am a true believer in its powers!! Echinacea Plus is my number one go-to tea for when I feel like I'm coming down with something, it always makes me feel better. It has a sweet flavor that only gets sweeter as you brew it. Definitely my favorite echinacea tea.

Feb. 26th, 2010
I'm giving this tea such a high marks because I am a true believer in its powers!! Breathe Easy has a cinnamon-spicy flavor I have to admit I'm not crazy about but it does help clear out my chest whenever I'm feeling like I'm coming down with something.

Dragon Well pre-Qing Ming First Grade from Teas Etc
Style: Dragon Well (Long Jing) – Region: Zhejiang, China83 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 26th, 2010
As a fan of pre-rain Dragon Well I am always anxious to find one with a good flavor for a reasonable price. This one is a great balance of flavor and aroma for a very good price considering it is a pre-Qing Ming tea.
I keep this one on hand throughout the year and look forward to the new harvest.
803 Fine Irish Breakfast Blend from SpecialTeas
Style: Irish Breakfast – Region: Blend97 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Feb. 25th, 2010
This is my everyday breakfast tea. Deeper and darker colored than an English breakfast, this very full-bodied black tea (with a splash of milk) is one of the most satisfying teas I've ever had. Not elegant, but full throttle flavors and finish. I buy it 2# at a time for $32. UPDATE: Special Teas has closed its doors. O...

Roasted Oolong from Upton Tea Imports
Style: Tie Guan Yin – Region: China77 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Feb. 25th, 2010
Aroma is mellow and smooth, with a pleasant woody quality. Stronger in flavor than Upton's similarly-priced non-roasted Tie Guan Yin's. I found this tea to be subtle; it grew on me, and I enjoyed the last cup I made from the sample significantly more than the first. Oddly, I find that much of the flavor sinks to the...

Feb. 25th, 2010
Fantastic plain ol black tea. Never bitter even when you brew it strong, does exactly what you want it to.

China Jasmine Green Tea from Foojoy

Feb. 25th, 2010
OK, it's been a long time since I've had this tea but I remember it being really disappointing and bitter. Foojoy strikes me as the cheapo brand of chinese teas.. hit or miss.

Feb. 25th, 2010
This is a sort of horrible tasting tea- pungent, minty and bitter is right. But it definitely makes me feel better after I drink it.

Run of the mill green tea. Good but forgettable... the echinacea is a good bonus.

Green Tea Super Antioxidant from Yogi Tea
Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: Blend43 / 100 Aroma: 3/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 25th, 2010
There is just something about this tea I don't like! Overly citrus flavor and not satisfying enough. Only feels worth it if you keep telling yourself it's good for you while drinking it.

Echinacea Immune Support from Yogi Tea
Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: Blend47 / 100 Aroma: 3/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 25th, 2010
It's fine- not a bad purchase... simply not as smooth or enjoyable as its Traditional Medicinals counterpart.

Cache-Cache from Lupicia
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend53 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 3/5
Feb. 25th, 2010
So I'm already biased because I went into this tea knowing I wouldn't be a fan... plus I'm kind of reviewing this weeks after I had it so my memory is a bit foggy. But it just didn't stand out to me... it is an interesting tea that seems to taste different with every sip- but the flavors are mostly citrus and fruit whi...

Emperor's Puerh - Black Tea from Numi Organic Tea
Style: Pu-erh Tea – Region: Yunnan, China60 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Feb. 25th, 2010
I actually kind of like this tea. I agree that it smells weird when you first brew it (if that's meant to be 'malty'...) however it tastes pretty smooth and is overall a satisfying puerh for a box brand you can get in any supermarket.

Season's Pick Organic White Fannings from Upton Tea Imports
Style: White Tea – Region: China57 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 25th, 2010
I find Upton's description of this tea to be very accurate, and I like their brewing instructions.
On the dark end for a white tea, but lighter than some shou mei's. Surprisingly aromatic for fannings! The aroma is bold and earthy, slightly crisp and fresh, and, as Upton describes, there are some nutty tones in th...
Season's Pick Formosa Fannings from Upton Tea Imports
Style: Oolong Tea – Region: Taiwan / Formosa50 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 2/5
Feb. 22nd, 2010
The leaf of this tea is significantly coarser than many grades I have also seen called fannings.
The brewed tea is deep reddish brown. The aroma isn't terribly strong, and is mostly earthy with some nutty tones. Little bitterness, but also, little complexity.
I find that this tea is too mellow for my tastes if ...
Orchard Berry (Pomi-berry) from Two Leaves and a Bud

Not too sweet and definitely not bitter. Good balance without anything added. Still refreshing when cool.

This tea has the most wonderful smell, but the taste is weak, even after a long time steeping. Still, it's a nice relaxing tea.

Lichee Black Tea from Foojoy
Style: Lychee Black Tea – Region: China60 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 5/5
Feb. 20th, 2010
Pleasantly fruity, yet with a black tea that has some presence. The aroma suggests sweetness but this tea can get quite bitter. Not the most complex tea but it is well-balanced and enjoyable.
As with Foojoy's other teas, this one is unparalleled among teabag teas of this price. I recommend a brief (1-2 min.) infu...
Organic Pai Mu Tan from Upton Tea Imports
Style: White Peony Tea – Region: China50 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 1/5 Value: 2/5
Feb. 16th, 2010
This particular pai mu tan smells more like an actual peony than any others I've tried.. The aroma is actually fairly powerful, although when you sip the cup it is a bit bland...this tea doesn't have much flavor. There is a very mild, unpleasant sourness to this tea too. Smooth, but I don't notice any sweetness at a...
