A mild, pleasant Earl. Clearly good quality tea and bergamot. Clearly too much packaging.

This the first Black Currant that I've had lately that hasn't smelled horrid. In fact, it is very nice and fruity, actually smelling and tasting like black currants. I wish more companies knew how to do theirs as well. I must give them low marks for their packaging, with is too much and probably why it is so expensi...

Masala Chai from Rishi Tea

Nov. 2nd, 2010

this is definitely my favorite chai blend.
i've tried several others (searching for a cheaper alternative), including a couple from an indian vendor, and they all fell short of rishi's.

as alex wrote in his review, it is a strong blend with plenty of spice (many other blends fail here). and unlike a lot of other b...

Nov. 1st, 2010

This became my favorite pre-blended chai upon the first sip. It's one of the few that I think is on par with the chai I make on my own--possibly because the blend of spices is very close to what I would use myself. I did not sweeten it or use milk; I imagine I'd like it with milk, but I think it's plenty smooth as is...

Oct. 30th, 2010

Very rich, smooth, deep, dark and delicious. Don't worry about the pu-erh, it just provides a good grounding note for the other teas and the chocolate. Many people are afraid of pu-erh and this gussied up version might be a good beginning. I would call this a treat for breakfast, as I would prefer a plainer tea, but...

A really fresh-tasting, strong, well-flavored blend. Not a lot of nuance, but hey, it's morning. One of their better ones.

One of the best of the Kusmi teas. Light and fragrant, well-balanced, really pleasant. It lacks the heaviness that many of their teas have, which is good in the evening. Perhaps with some cinammon toast to end the day.

The essence of Russian tea. It has an incense like quality that speaks of mystery. It is somewhat heavy, but light at the same time. It just takes you to a samovar on the sideboard and glasses of tea in the afternoon.

When will blenders cut back on the clove in Christmas blends? There's always too much and it ruins what surely has the possibility of being a very nice tea, as Jeff has said

This has a bit of malt, a bit of astringency, maybe the barest hint of floral. It is a good tea for plain tea drinkers, but can take milk and sugar as well. The Brits are particularly good at blending teas that are always good if not full of nuance or "differentness". Most of the teas of this style I save for mornin...

Who whee, this is most definitely a breakfast tea. It is about as straigtforward an English style tea as you can get. No nuances, just good black tea, the kind you find in every English pot. I would only brew it for 3.5 - 4 minutes as it does tend to get a bit tannic. Just made for cream and sugar, if you like swee...

Oh yeah, those buffalo just shake the earth. Definately not for the delicate crowd. This stuff is trong and tasty and wakes you right up. Good for those days when you have brain fog. I brew it for 3-5 minutes. I usually prefer loose leaf, but I gotta admit that there are days....

Supposedly Princess Diana's favorite. This is a very feminine tea that you can't quite pin down. Is it floral, is it fruity, yes, it's really both. It smells divine and tastes really really good. It's not one I spend much time analysing, I just enjoy it. It is perfect for a ladies tea party and it is wonderful ice...

One of my all time favorites from when I first began to appreciate tea. Supposedly the Queen has this at her annual garden party, which I have been unable to attend. It really is just what it says, a blend of Earl Grey and Jasmine that works very, very well and is perfect for grand affairs, as it is smooth and delicat...

I brew this for 3.5 minutes with boiling water. It gives off an aroma of woodsiness with overtones of wheat and asparagus. This carries right on over into the taste of the brew, which is malty and woodsy with floral overtones. What a great way to wake up!

I pretty much agree with Alex, but I wasn't that taken with it. I think I like my Earl as is, with the exception of S&V's Victorian Earl Grey. Surprisingly, I think this company's Earl Grey in bags is better

Sadly, this was a dud from first to last. It smelled of chemicals and the taste of peaches and ginger were almost non-existent. They came out better with the addition of sugar, but on the whole, simply not worth it, as the base tea also was not very nice. It may just have been a bad batch.

Some teas are elusive and this is certainly one. I cannot pin down what it tastes like, but it is delicious. The aroma is easy - woody, leathery, tobacco, all dark and sweet. The tea is lighter somehow, but with a good body that is smooth as can be. A drawing room blacksmith who still has the tang of the smithy abou...

This is a really satisfying winter tea. I brew it for about 4 minutes with boiling water. At first you taste the mild chocolate and good tea base and wonder where the chilis is, but then your moth warms, as does your tum and you think, aah, that's really nice. The tea is a good base and the rest just adds to the fee...

This is definitely not a tea for everyone. I am surprised that I like it, as I am not too fond of most flavored teas. However, this smells like lilacs and I suppose, tastes like them. It is very flowery, but not at all perfumey or overly sweet or cloying. It is very well done and would be an interesting "second" te...

I liked the aroma of this tea better than the taste. It didn't have much of the 'tropical' taste to it, but it was pretty good. I had it hot but it does seem like it would be really good cold.

Oh bliss, oh joy, this smells just like the shrub Philadelphius or Mock Orange. It is delicate but so lovely. Don;t brew too long, 2 minutes is plenty, or it's nasty bitter and don't buy more than you'll use up quickly as the rose tends to disappear, but it is worth it while it lasts
