Earl Grey from Twinings
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: ?????40 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Nov. 22nd, 2020
Cup at home, made from a teabag. Pours hazy dark brown (against white china) with sediment. Intense aroma of malt, bergamot oil, citrus and, well, horse manure, if you ask me, with some leafy notes of black tea. Bitter flavour of black tea, with some malty notes (Assam?) and citric touches and hints of bergamot oil. As...

Style: Black Tea – Region: ?????82 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Nov. 15th, 2020
A delicious, fragrant and strong-brewing decaf sachet. I take it plain but could easily add milk and/or sugar or sweetener if desired. So comforting. Not too expensive - nice tin and sachets.

Style: Green Tea – Region: ?????70 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Oct. 13th, 2020
A green tea from Korea that has some lightly smoky, earthy bite to it. It is robust but does not cross the line into nastiness, and sells for a reasonable price. I would gladly pick this up again.
Read Full ReviewWild Berries from Wissotzky
Style: Fruit (Herbal) Tea – Region: ?????85 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Sep. 13th, 2020
Ingredients: hibiscus, rosehip, blackberry, raspberry, salka, lemon, black currant, raspberry and wildberries flavors.
Overall: If you like strong tart or sour flavors this is a good choice. If you prefer something more delicate then probably avoid because it's very easy to oversteep.
Aroma: Dry tea has a strong,...
Pu Erh Spice from Adagio Teas
Style: Flavored Pu-erh – Region: ?????83 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Sep. 12th, 2020
I enjoy this tea. It has a nice level of spiciness to it. I am not big on anise, but I think it works here. Ginger is definitely the most dominant spice, but it isn't overwhelming.

Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: ?????70 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Sep. 6th, 2020
Half-litre pot at home, made from a mixture of black tea leaves and ground and caramelised hazelnuts, lemongrass, liquorice root, and dried strawberries and black currants. Pours nearly clear copper brown (against white china) with no sediment. Intense aroma of lemongrass, fudge and berries, with touches of black tea l...
Read Full ReviewMint Magic Herbal Tea from Celestial Seasonings
Style: Mint Tea – Region: ?????59 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Aug. 23rd, 2020
This is the first tea review I can blame or credit directly to the ongoing coronavirus. We were having Sprouts groceries plucked from within and brought curbside—an activity not undertaken before this pandemic—and the Instacart shopper either mistakenly got "Mint Magic" instead of the peppermint tea I ordere...
Read Full ReviewLicorice Spice Herbal Tea from Stash Tea
Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: ?????75 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Aug. 14th, 2020
I'm not a fan of licorice in general, but this wasn't actually bad. If I had to drink a licorice-based tea, this wouldn't a bad choice -- especially considering how inexpensive it is.
Read Full ReviewLinden Flower (Tila) from Carmencita
Style: Linden Tea – Region: ?????66 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Aug. 9th, 2020
I first had some of this drink when living in Miami almost 30 years ago, at a Salvadoran restaurant, without having tried linden tea of any sort before. I recalled enjoying it with pupusas, so another time I was there, shortly before joining RateTea, I saw a packet of teabags at Publix and brought it back, and (though...
Read Full ReviewEnglish Breakfast Black Tea from Bigelow Tea
Style: English Breakfast – Region: ?????73 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Aug. 8th, 2020
Not bad, considering this is a teabag. It tastes like a basic but not bitter black tea, and I do notice some raisin-like notes as well. It’d be a good at-work tea.

Style: Fruit (Herbal) Tea – Region: ?????80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jul. 24th, 2020
Half-litre pot at home, made from an enchanting variety of dried (and, in part, caramelised) fruits: banana, pineapple, mango, peach, apricot, cranberry, and God knows what else (there is no description of the blend on the tea company's website yet). Pours clear light straw (against white china) with no sediment. Inten...
Read Full ReviewLoose Leaf Breakfast Blend Black Tea from Benner Tea Co
Style: Black Tea – Region: ?????72 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jul. 16th, 2020
I was really excited to see loose-leaf tea for sale in ALDI, and I eagerly bought this. I can't remember how much it cost but I think it was around $5. I had written some time back about how frustrated I was at how bad the tea bag teas from Benner Tea Co, the ALDI generic brand, were.
ALDI consistently has high-qual...
Classic Chai from Mountain Rose Herbs
Style: Chai / Spiced Tea – Region: ?????30 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 1/5 Value: 5/5
Jul. 4th, 2020
This was a pretty weak chai.

Jun. 22nd, 2020
Half-litre pot at home, made from a mixture of yellow tea leaves and dried goji berries and small pieces of dried mango. Pours clear olive green with no sediment. Clear aroma of mango and berries, with touches of yellow tea. Sweetish flavour of mango, with dryish notes of goji berries and bitterish touches of yellow te...

Style: Fruit (Herbal) Tea – Region: ?????30 / 100 Aroma: 3/10 Flavor: 1/5 Value: 3/5
Jun. 10th, 2020
My, oh my. This tea got a grape flavor. This for sure ain't got some blueberries in it, I'll tell ya'. It's grape. "True Grape" would better suit this tea. It's grape... Why'd it have to be grape... Anywho. I would recommend this tea only to my enemies. If you mistakenly bought it this week, throw it in the trash can w...
Read Full ReviewSweet Rose Tulsi Tea from Organic India
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: ?????70 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jun. 9th, 2020
this tea is my favorite rose tea. it is super sweet so it is not to be drunk too often, but it is amazing when the time comes. it's perfect for after meals.
Read Full ReviewSleepytime Throat Tamer™ Wellness Tea from Celestial Seasonings
Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: ?????79 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
May. 16th, 2020
Strangely, I found this much more aromatic, flavorful and overall pleasant to drink than the seemingly similar "just" Sleepytime. That's probably because it has more stuff that is flavorful and aromatic on the ingredients list.
The common components between the two blends are chamomile, spearmint and lemongrass, ...
Shin-cha Select Gold (Hachijyu-Hachiya) (2020) from Maeda-en
Style: Shincha – Region: ?????100 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
May. 12th, 2020
This is, easily, the most striking tea that I've ever had in my life -- and I've had hundreds.
First of all, the scent was lightly fruity at the same time that it exhibited notes similar to the umami gyokuro green tea. The color was the most rich green I'd ever seen. I think the description had said that it leans to...
Soba-cha Buckwheat Tea from Maeda-en
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: ?????70 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 5/5
May. 11th, 2020
I used to love roasted barley tea, but I've since become gluten-free, and barley contains gluten, so I can no longer drink it. I decided to tack this onto an order from Maeda-en because I was hoping that it would be a good substitute.
Now, to give you some perspective on where my review is coming from, I think buckw...
Alsblandingen (Nr. 6400) from Carstensens Tehandel
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: ?????65 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
May. 9th, 2020
Cup at home, made from leaves of black tea mixed with tiny pieces of orange peel, cornflower and what looks like some other fruit - small white caramelised pieces. Pours hazy copper brown (against white china), with sediment (I used a sieve, not a filter). Clear aroma of fruit and black tea, with touches of caramel and...

Half-litre pot at home, made from fine rooibos leaves and tiny pieces of dried mango and sunflower blossom. Pours nearly clear copper brown (against white china) with no sediment. Intense aroma of rooibos leaves, with touches of sunflower and faint hints of mango. Bitterish flavour of rooibos, with notes of sunflower a...

May. 9th, 2020
Half-litre pot a home, made from a mixture of dried pieces of mango, peach, strawberries, raspberries, orange (some pieces as large as a quarter of a slice) and probably some other fruit, too (this is a new tea, and a description is not available on the tea company's website yet), but no tea leaves. Pours clear peach y...

Apr. 19th, 2020
This tea is fine. I am hard to impress with green teas. I drank it most day for a while and have almost used all 50 teabags, and I had a fairly enjoyable experience each time. I am just not blown away.

This is my go-to, basic red tea. It is very good but not excellent.
