Enlightened Mind from ShanTea
Style: Miscellaneous Blend – Region: Blend47 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 2/5
Sep. 16th, 2011
This one blended very well...I'm used to drinking green kukicha, but this has the roasted kukicha which I think blends well with the Yerba Mate. I can't notice the sencha as much, and I don't know what the Gingko would be like. I will say, the aroma is somewhat earthy, like a root or rhizome. There's a significant w...

Style: Green Tea with Mint – Region: Blend73 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Sep. 16th, 2011
This is a nice blend. Unlike other mint green teas, the mint doesn't overpower the tea, but it still dominates the flavor. I like the quality of the green tea. I added cream and sugar.

Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: Blend70 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Sep. 15th, 2011
Bold, slightly prickly ginger presence, peppermint and cinnamon also noticeable in the aroma. Aroma is dominated by the ginger, peppermint, and cinnamon. Flavor is sweet. Very full-bodied. This tea tastes very good.
I find this is a rather centering tea, making one slightly more alert but also slightly more mell...
Typhoo Tea from Typhoo
Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend87 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Sep. 15th, 2011
This has been my favorite brand of tea over 30 years. I first drank Typhoo Tea in my student days in England. I have tried other British and Irish teas, but have always come back to Typhoo.
This is a strong breakfast tea, but with more flavor and strength than teas called 'English Breakfast' in the US. It is not a...
Gingerbread Tea from Adagio Teas
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend77 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Sep. 15th, 2011
This tea is really good. It tastes a lot like chai, which I like. Nice amount of ginger, but I can't really taste the bread. I added cream and sugar.

Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend67 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Sep. 14th, 2011
This tea has a nice aroma, but the flavor is a little weak. The cinnamon doesn't blend very well with the apple flavor. It's a little too fruity for my taste, but I don't usually like fruit flavored teas. I like the caramel flavor, though. I added cream and sugar.

Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend87 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Sep. 13th, 2011
This tea is really good! It has this malty flavor that I love. It's strong and not too bitter. I think it would appeal to people who usually prefer coffee, but want to try something different. I added cream and sugar.
Read Full ReviewEnglish Breakfast from Revolution Tea
Style: English Breakfast – Region: Blend60 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 2/5
Sep. 13th, 2011
Moderate strength, relatively full-bodied, but considerably less bitter than typical for an English breakfast.
I think I prefer the green and white teas from Revolution tea, but this one was not bad.
Pricey though, for the quality. Revolution's other teas, in my opinion, deliver something more unique whereas thi...
Chestnut Tea from Adagio Teas
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend53 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Sep. 12th, 2011
I love chestnuts, and I could imagine them going well with black tea, so I was eager to try this one.
The aroma is very strong, a sort of caramelly, nutty quality. Although it's very nutty, it doesn't taste at all like chestnuts to me. It taste more like pecans than anything else...a buttery sort of pecan flavor, ...
Pumpkin Spice Tea from Adagio Teas
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend70 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Sep. 12th, 2011
Mmm, this tea is good. It tastes a bit weak, though, and I don't want it to get too bitter. But I like the blend of spices. It's a little like chai, and I'm a big chai fan, but I like that this tea has much less cinnamon flavor. I can barely taste the pumpkin. I added cream and sugar.

Style: Green Tea with Mint – Region: Blend73 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Sep. 12th, 2011
I really prefer blends of green tea with spearmint to those containing peppermint, but given that this is a peppermint blend, I think it is quite outstanding.
The peppermint has a candy-like quality, clean, clear, and suggesting sweetness. The base tea is smooth, slightly sweet, and believe it or not, blends seamle...
Peppermint Guayusa from Runa
Style: Flavored Guayusa – Region: Blend43 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 2/5
Sep. 12th, 2011
This tastes a lot like plain peppermint. I'm not sure how I feel about it. It's all right. I'm not a big fan of herbal teas in general. I'm drinking it with cream and sugar.

Style: Flavored Guayusa – Region: Blend63 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Sep. 11th, 2011
This is pretty good for an herbal tea. I don't usually like herbal teas. It smells mostly like cinnamon. It funny that it's called Guayusa Spice, and the only spice it has is cinnamon. The flavor is pretty good, though. I added cream and sugar.
Read Full ReviewIrish Breakfast Tea Bags from Taylors of Harrogate
Style: Irish Breakfast – Region: Blend67 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Sep. 8th, 2011
This is the dark, bitter brother to Taylor's Scottish breakfast tea. Blended to be drunk with milk, it is a real eye opener if you try it alone. Hearty rather than robust, it makes a pretty decent cup with some malty flavor and only a tiny bit of brightness.
I bought 20 bags for about $3 at a local import store, wh...
Scottish Breakfast Tea Bags from Taylors of Harrogate
Style: Scottish Breakfast – Region: Blend70 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Sep. 8th, 2011
Although I don't typically drink my tea with milk or sweetener, Scottish Breakfast Teas are blended with this in mind so I tried mine both plain and with the milk and sweetener. When drinking plain, the tea is so robust, dark and malty that the flavors were completely overpowering, but with a touch of milk and agave th...

Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend67 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 5/5
Aug. 25th, 2011
My go-to tea bag when I don't want to bother with loose. I think it is the best of the teabag teas. It is consistent and always good. It is a basic breakfast blend and as such, does well. You cannot compare it with loose leaf tea, only with other bags.
Read Full ReviewSapphire Earl Grey Tea from Novus Tea
Style: Blue Flower Earl Grey – Region: Blend67 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Aug. 22nd, 2011
This was a good, solid Earl Grey, but it failed to wow me the way some of the other Novus teas did.
Aroma is strongly fruity but also somewhat deep and malty. Fruity aroma strongly suggests concord grapes. Good balance of base tea and bergamot flavoring. Less citrusy than some Earl Greys. Very astringent, and ve...
African Autumn (Loose) from Harney and Sons
Style: Fruit Rooibos – Region: Blend57 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Aug. 21st, 2011
The fruit flavoring in this blend really dominates; aroma is mostly of orange. I can't quite discern the cranberry as much...I don't know if there's any spice but there's certainly a suggestion of spice in the aroma. Aroma is not quite as complex as I'd like.
Flavor is slightly sour, more sour than straight rooibo...
White Tea - Vanilla - Decaffeinated from Good Earth Teas
Style: Flavored White Tea – Region: Blend40 / 100 Aroma: 3/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 2/5
Aug. 17th, 2011
This tea tastes very different from the way it smelled while I was brewing it. It smelled predominantly like lemongrass (the 2nd ingredient) and I thought it was going to be horrible, but it actually tastes all right. It reminds me of that sugar cookie tea. The flavors are strong, and I can barely taste the white tea a...
Read Full ReviewCitron from Tazo Tea
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Blend43 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 2/5
Aug. 16th, 2011
This blend, which has since been discontinued, is an odd one. I can see why it was discontinued, but I'm glad that I was able to try it when it was available.
Tazo adds citric acid, "natural flavors", and orange peel to black tea to create this blend. Unlike Tazo passion, another blend with added citric acid, whic...
ML Verbena Mint Organic from Mighty Leaf Tea
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: Blend63 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 2/5
Aug. 10th, 2011
This was a surprisingly good herbal blend. I tend to prefer blends of spearmint and lemon verbena, and I was a little worried because this one uses peppermint: peppermint can easily overpower other aromas. Fortunately, this one is balanced just right and the mint does not overpower the verbena at all.
Pleasingly l...
Bedtime from Yogi Tea
Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 5/5
Aug. 10th, 2011
has a very noticeable calming effect, whether you are about to go to sleep or not. but i find it is exactly what i need on those nights when i can't quiet my brain long enough to drift off. it always makes me feel soothed and serene.

Aug. 10th, 2011
immediately impressed. much more than i expected. the licorice taste is strong but by no means overpowering- the other flavors are subtle but excellently balanced. it's surprisingly delicate, too.

Aug. 3rd, 2011
Ugh. This one was sweetened, and I didn't expect it. Annoyingly, I can't find any info online about it being sweetened or what it is sweetened with. To me, this tastes extremely sweet, but I'm used to only drinking unsweetened tea. And from reading the commercial description, there's no way to know that it's sweete...
Read Full ReviewLuzianne Tea from Luzianne
Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend60 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Aug. 2nd, 2011
If you want a very basic tea, Luzianne delivers. I like it for a general black tea, or for making iced tea using hot tea bags. It provides consistent flavor that is as black tea should be, with nothing fancy.
You can find it on sale from time to time, but it's not too expensive normally. It is comparable to Lipto...
