Apr. 24th, 2012
I just had this tea with my lunch and was surprised to see all of the negative ratings about it. Like the description I found that it has a light taste and to me it was crisp and refreshing. It had a different flavor than most green teas I've tried and I feel like tangy was a good way to describe it, but I didn't encou...

Bailin Gongfu Black Tea from TeaVivre
Style: Black Tea – Region: Fujian, China77 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Apr. 23rd, 2012
I'm always complaining about black teas have a strong bitter taste so I really liked that this tea was smooth and mild. I never understood how a tea could be "bready" but this tea really does smell like bread! I really enjoyed drinking it and would recommend it to anyone who thinks Black Tea is too strong.

Prince of Wales from Twinings
Style: Black Tea – Region: China70 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Apr. 20th, 2012
I always enjoy a cup of black tea with no sweetener or cream, but I often find that it leaves a bitter taste in my mouth. I didn't have that problem with this tea, although it was strong. I definitely would like to add this tea to my stand-by tea list, along with Earl Grey. My only dislike is that I've heard Twining...

Red Zinger Herbal Tea from Celestial Seasonings
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: ?????30 / 100 Aroma: 3/10 Flavor: 1/5 Value: 2/5
Apr. 18th, 2012
This is not one of my favorite teas. It brewed a dark purple and had a sickly sweet candy smell. I found its flavor was much too sour and reminded me of hard sugar candy. I didn't finish my cup because I found it too overpowering.

I really enjoyed the floral scent of this tea and its taste. Its flavor was rich, smooth, and full, with an imperceptible aftertaste. It brewed a dark-amber color. This is one of the better teas I've tried from Two Leaves and Bud and I will definitely be drinking it again!

Greener Green Tea Yerba Mate from Guayaki
Style: Miscellaneous Blend – Region: Blend70 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Apr. 10th, 2012
This is the first type of Yerba Mate I've tried and I'll definitely be having it again. It had a strong grassy scent and looked like green tea, but I felt like the flavor reminded me of a favorite black without a strong aftertaste. Aside from taste and scent, I also like that this tea is organic and fair-trade.

Apr. 10th, 2012
Usually I don't like flavored tea, so I was surprised to find that I liked this one. The fruity taste wasn't as overbearing as most flavored teas that I've had and disliked, like Tazo Passion. While I won't be drinking this again based on personal preference, I'd recommend it to someone who wants to experiments with ...

Singbulli Darjeeling DJ41 from Harney and Sons
Style: Darjeeling First Flush – Region: Darjeeling, India70 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Apr. 1st, 2012
While I believe this tea to be slightly overpriced, I was impressed by how strong the tea was based off of the amount of leaf used. For the amount spent on a small box it's possible to brew a good amount of tea, so you get more for you dollar.

Dragon Well Green Tea from Novus Tea

Apr. 1st, 2012
I've never had Dragon Well Tea so I wasn't sure what to expect, but I ended up enjoying it. This tea was more herby or grassy than what I'm used to, but it wasn't overbearing. I thought it was pretty smooth and it didn't leave any strange aftertastes - although it's not my favorite I would drink this tea again!

Darjeeling from Two Leaves and a Bud
Style: Darjeeling Black Tea – Region: Darjeeling, India60 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Mar. 17th, 2012
I initially liked the flavor of this tea, but the longer I sipped it the less I found it appealing. After brewing it for about 3 minutes I found that it had a sweet taste and was light when I began drinking it. As time passed and I continued drinking it, the flavor became more and more bitter and left a heavy taste ...

Passion Filterbag from Tazo Tea
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: Blend30 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 1/5 Value: 1/5
Feb. 15th, 2012
Since I usually drink straight black tea I wanted to be a little adventurous and tried Passion, but was not satisfied.
The rich red color of this tea intrigued me, but its fruity flavor was far too strong. Barely steeped for a minute, my cup was already overwhelming.

Jan. 29th, 2012
I wasn't sure what to expect as this was the first white tea that I've sampled, but I was definitely satisfied!
The first time that it was brewed it had a mild taste and a strong scent. After being brewed a second time, with the same leaves, the tea had a stronger taste but was less aromatic. I enjoyed this becaus...
