Blueberry Kona Pop from Teavana
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: Blend70 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 2/5
Jun. 24th, 2013
Smelled awesome and tasted good over ice - and I hate Roiboos - but this is blended like an herbal tisane. Fruity and herby.
This is a blend of Pineapple Pop and Blueberry Bliss so there is a WHOLE lot going on here.
English Breakfast (Teabags) from Ahmad Tea
Style: English Breakfast – Region: Blend53 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Jun. 21st, 2013
Everything about this tea is fair, I was not overwhelmed by the aroma or the taste. Sadly it was all bland. The aroma was malty and there was a slightly malty taste. I added a bunch of cream and it brought out some of the richer maltiness of the tea.
Organic Tumeric Ginger from Republic of Tea
Style: Flavored Green Tea – Region: Blend67 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Jun. 18th, 2013
This is a very complex and unusual tea, luckily not in a bad way. Introduced to me as having 'an acquired taste' I can certainly agree.
The aroma is a great mix of spicy ginger and earthy turmeric that just floods your olfactory glands with a punch of spice. It is intense!
The flavor of this bright yellow tea is...
Blueberry Green Tea from Wegmans
Style: Miscellaneous Blend – Region: Blend97 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Jun. 16th, 2013
My perpetual quest for the perfect Blueberry tea might have finally ended. The first thing I noticed about this tea when I opened the large tin at Wegmans were the beautiful leaves. Whole leaves and buds mixed with large dried blueberries and pretty cornflower petals. I am not sure what kind of teas were used in this b...

Spiced Pear from Davidsons Tea
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend63 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Jun. 14th, 2013
I sampled this tea courtesy of the Church of the Holy City in Wilmington, Delaware.
It was interesting, and very different from anything else of the sort. Just a basic paper tea bag, but it was fresh, full-bodied, flavorful, and aromatic.
The clove is enough to impart a richness, but not enough to give that shar...
Cardamon Tea (Cardamom Tea, Loose) from Ahmad Tea
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend83 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Jun. 13th, 2013
This tea is fantastic, absolutely fantastic! I might be more than a little partial since Cardamon is possibly my favorite spice to add to tea with sharp competition with Star Anise.
The aroma is a very pleasing blend of the spice and smooth base tea, neither overpower the other.
The same can be said about the ta...
Grand Earl Grey from Octavia Tea
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: Blend73 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Jun. 12th, 2013
Served in Velvet Sky Bakery in Jenkintown.
This was a very strong, robust Earl Grey that had an intense, classic Earl Grey aroma, combining a powerful, malty base tea with a bold bergamot presence.
Octavia Tea informs me that the base tea used is a Yunnan tea...it definitely seems to have the strength and charact...
English Breakfast (Teabags) from Ahmad Tea
Style: English Breakfast – Region: Blend67 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jun. 12th, 2013
I thought this tea was okay. Nothing too crazy.
It was a bitter hot and less so as it cooled off, so I'd be more inclined to make iced tea out of it. There wasn't much of a smell, which I feel is pretty typical for most English Breakfasts I've had anyway.
I'll stick with other brands by Ahmad -- some of their lo...
African Sunset from Two Leaves and a Bud
Style: Flavored Rooibos – Region: Blend60 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Jun. 9th, 2013
I often find Rooibus hard to describe, especially to people who have never had it before. The aroma is like being in a deciduous forest in autumn, sweet, woodsy, and leafy. There is also the slightly zingy taste of the Lemongrass that adds both a citrus and a green taste to the tea, but it seems more of an after thoug...

Organic Decaf English Breakfast from Paisley Label Tea (Paisley Tea Co)
Style: English Breakfast – Region: Blend30 / 100 Aroma: 3/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 1/5
Jun. 7th, 2013
Like Paisley's other offerings, this is finely-broken tea in a flat paper tea bag.
In contrast to Paisley's other teas, which I found overwhelmingly strong, this one was weaker than typical for black tea. I steeped it a bit longer than normal, and both the color and flavor were on the mellow side.
The aroma is i...
Green Tea with Citrus from Lipton Tea
Style: Green Tea with Lemon – Region: Blend53 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Jun. 7th, 2013
There are many, many bagged green teas that are far better than this one - but for Lipton - this is not bad. A bit lemon-pledgey in it's scent - tastes ok. Not bad and not great. Just OK.

English Afternoon from Ahmad Tea
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: Blend60 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Jun. 6th, 2013
This tea wasn't terribly outstanding, but I did think it was really good. I'm still impressed with how reasonably priced Ahmad teas are, considering their quality!
The flavor was strong and bitter, the dried leaf smelled lightly of bergamot. It only became bitter as it sat.
I'd be interested in trying this out ...
Whittard Original from Whittard of Chelsea
Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend83 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Jun. 3rd, 2013
Sometimes you get really lucky and find a treasure where least expecting it, in this case I found this tea at a discount style close-out grocery store. Described by the box as a strong traditional black leaf blend, the tea certainly looks and smells strong. The aroma is rich and slightly nutty with a hint of malt from ...

Earl Grey Creme from Spice and Tea Exchange
Style: Earl Grey Cream – Region: Blend63 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 2/5
Jun. 2nd, 2013
This tea is very interesting because although it's called "Earl Grey Creme", it has much more of a floral taste. The blue cornflowers definitely have a big impact on the flavor of the tea. I can only assume that the name comes from aroma of the tea which smells very sweet and creamy. Although the tea was delicious, I f...

Luzianne Tea from Luzianne
Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend47 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 3/5
Jun. 1st, 2013
Yes, they still make Luzianne - the classic black tea used in countless pitchers of Southern Style sweet tea. I can even find it (bottom shelf) of my local supermarket in the Philadelphia area.
Very black - neutral scent and a flat, single note taste. Not complex - totally drinkable but bby no means a favorite.

Vanilla Almond from Republic of Tea
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend77 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
May. 30th, 2013
I have had both the bags and the loose leaf of this delightful tea, I prefer the loose but the bags are wonderful as well. The aroma is a great blend of vanilla and almond that does not overpower the tea smell. The flavor comes in layers, first the almond, then the vanilla, and lastly the smooth black tea. Rich without...

Minecraft Creeper Tea (Signature Blend) from Adagio Teas
Style: Green Tea – Region: Blend77 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
May. 30th, 2013
This a great tea for people who love Green tea with interesting layers. At first the aroma is one of flowers and slight smokiness (ok, not terribly evocative of Creepers, but really, what does one even smell like! Maybe it does smell like flowers) The taste reminds me overall of spring time. The flavors seem to have di...

Awake English Breakfast Full Leaf from Tazo Tea
Style: English Breakfast – Region: Blend60 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
May. 29th, 2013
Of all the teas I've sampled from Tazo in both the old tea bags, and the new full leaf sachets, this is the one that I think improved the least.
I thought the old tea was already pretty complex, above average for a tea bag, but I think this one is below average for a whole leaf sachet.
Aroma is mostly malty, typi...
Honey Green Tea from Lipton Tea
Style: Flavored Green Tea – Region: Blend23 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 1/5 Value: 1/5
May. 29th, 2013
Sorry, Lipton - but this fakey-honeyish pseudo green bagged tea is not good. Yikes. I had this (free) at a hospitality station where there were a few kinds of teas to choose from (all Lipton) and this seemed OK at the time. Bad call.
I tried it hot and doctored it up with a touch of splenda - but I would never ...
Naturally Decaffeinated Tea from Red Rose Tea
Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend47 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 3/5
May. 29th, 2013
Not a big fan of Red Rose - and only tried the decaf kind once - years back. The regular black tea by Red Rose makes a passable Southern-Style sweet tea - and it's very inexpensive.
I would proabably use this for decaf sweet-tea when you want a black, generic tasting grocery store tea. It's drinkable but not a fa...
Vanilla Creme Black Tea from Stash Tea
Style: Vanilla Black Tea – Region: Blend67 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
May. 29th, 2013
This was a strange combination of vanilla, bitter black tea (bitter in a good way, I think.) and almost a nutty or almondish taste. I got a sample bag of this from a friend and it does take only 2-3 minutes to steep and comes out rather dark. I did not add sweetener. Not bad. Maybe as a dessert tea - or on Christm...

Orange Jasmine Black Tea from Mighty Leaf Tea
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend60 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 2/5
May. 26th, 2013
This was a balanced tea that I found tasted much better once it had cooled to room temperature. I drank it hot, but I think it may actually make a much better iced tea than hot tea. If it weren't for the steep price tag, I'd recommend this one.
Flavor is very clean and crisp: there's a pleasant bitterness, and the...
Calm Chamomile Full Leaf from Tazo Tea
Style: Chamomile Blend – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
May. 22nd, 2013
Before Tazo switched to what they call whole leaf sachets, this was one of my favorite of their blends. It remains so, and I definitely think it is improved, although not as much as some of them.
Like the original tea bag, I find this has just the right amount of chamomile for me--enough that I notice it but not en...
Blackberry Sage Decaf from Republic of Tea
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend70 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
May. 21st, 2013
For a decaf version this is great! Very sagey - a bit moreso than the standard version with fruity berry notes. A great tea hot or over ice.

Yorkshire Tea Traditional from Yorkshire Tea
Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend77 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
May. 20th, 2013
Bold flavor but not harsh. I like tea without sugar or milk.
