Hibiscus Coconut from Republic of Tea
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: Blend90 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 21st, 2015
Love it! Though I wish the hibiscus was stronger, it blends perfectly with the coconut. People who normally find hibiscus too tart may really like this one. Just the right level of sweetness. The aroma is particularly wonderful. I'd happily get this one again.

Caramel Vanilla Cuppa Cake from Republic of Tea
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 20th, 2015
A sweet, tasty tea. Excellent dessert tea for when you're in the mood for it. Well balanced flavors with no bitterness. As usual, though, the second cup was weaker.
It comes in packs of 50, so if you like this one it's very affordable.
Hibiscus Key Lime from Republic of Tea
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: Blend50 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 3/5
Feb. 18th, 2015
Not bad, but disappointing. The hibiscus isn't strong enough and something about the key lime flavor tastes fake. The flavors just aren't playing off each other the way they should be. It isn't so much offensive as simply meh.

get clean - No. 7 from Republic of Tea
Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: Blend67 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Feb. 17th, 2015
First off, I should say I generally make it a point to avoid wellness/medicinal teas because I don't like to encourage a lack of rigor in medical/health claims. And frankly, an herb that "stimulates the liver" sounds terrifying. My liver works just fine without prodding. I tried this one because it came as a free sampl...

Chamomile Lemon from Republic of Tea
Style: Chamomile Blend – Region: Blend70 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Feb. 16th, 2015
Probably my second favorite chamomile blend (behind Numi's chamomile lemon), and so pretty impressive. The chamomile is there but not better and blends well with the other flavors. There is a hint of both lemon and of herbaceousness. Big chamomile fans would likely enjoy this more than I do, but the quality is good and...

Cranberry Blood Orange from Republic of Tea
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Blend83 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 16th, 2015
Surprisingly good! I liked the orange better than I expected. It finishes a little astringent, but otherwise is quite good. Smells good too, if you're in the mood for something moderately citrusy.

Strawberry Vanilla Little Citizens' Herb Tea from Republic of Tea
Style: Flavored Rooibos – Region: Blend90 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 15th, 2015
Ooh, another well done herbal tea. Rooibos proves again to be an excellent base for flavors. Strawberry, rooibos, and vanilla--simple, but wonderfully balanced. The level of sweetness is perfect and there's a touch of creaminess. It's a bit like a not-overly-sweet strawberry cream hard candy that I could absent-minded...

Raspberry Rose Hibiscus from Republic of Tea
Style: Fruit (Herbal) Tea – Region: Blend90 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 14th, 2015
Mmmmm. Though not quite perfect, the ingredients are the stuff of perfection. I love this one and want it in a loose leaf version--which they sadly don't offer.
The most distinct scent and flavor is of raspberry, though the hibiscus adds a satisfying mouthfeel and its own tartness and the rose adds a hint of floral ...
Pineapple Kona Pop Herbal Tea from Teavana
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Feb. 14th, 2015
Candied pineapple with assorted fruits and flowers. Nice! A balanced mixture of tartness and sweetness for those who love robust fruity flavors. There is no need for additional sweetening.
The pineapple, the strongest taste by far, tastes natural rather than fake. The rest of the flavors are the support team, and th...
Pumpkin Spice Black Tea from Republic of Tea
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend83 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 13th, 2015
Very nice tea, so long as you drink it rather quickly! The tea loses flavor as it loses heat. But the first sips I had smelled and tasted wonderful--somewhere between the spices used for pumpkin pie (without pumpkin flavoring) and those used in apple cinnamon oatmeal (without an apple or very oatmeal-ish flavor). So, b...

Acai Green Tea from Republic of Tea
Style: Fruit Green Tea – Region: Blend77 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Feb. 12th, 2015
Definitely a fruity, juicy tea in a delightful way. I'd like it more if the flavor was either more complex or more robust, but it's pretty solid. The acai is distinct and good. I don't really taste a lot of the green tea flavor, but it does seem to provide substance.
This got a rating of being an outstanding value b...
Mango Ceylon from Republic of Tea
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Feb. 11th, 2015
Surprisingly good! Though the flavor is better than the aroma (which is a bit weak), this is among the best blends between fruit and black tea that I've tried. Very smooth, neither bitter nor overly sweet. There's the hint of raisin-like flavor, but it's also properly balanced and not dominant. This cup also provides a...

Blackberry Sage from Republic of Tea
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend77 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 7th, 2015
I like this one. It's got a balanced fruity versus tea-ish flavor, isn't bitter, and satisfies a craving for slight astringency/tartness. When I think about it I do notice the sage there, but it wouldn't have jumped out to me otherwise. It simply contributes to an undertone of herbaceousness.
I'd like it even more i...
Apricot Decaf Fair Trade Certified from Republic of Tea
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Blend73 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 6th, 2015
Very solid tea. This is another one that reminds me of oatmeal with fruit bits in it. The tea is well balanced, not bitter, and slightly creamy. The apricot works great too. Quite pleasant, especially if you're needing something caffeine free. Not a top flavor for me, but one I could see myself occasionally craving. Th...

Hibiscus Pineapple Lychee from Republic of Tea
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: Blend90 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 5th, 2015
Amazing taste in the first cup! Perfectly balanced between sweetness and tartness, at a lovely level for frequent sipping. Exactly my kind of flavored tea. My only complaint is that the second cup has weaker flavor. That seems to be a trend for certain brands, unfortunately including tea bags from Republic of Tea. I'm ...

Sleepytime Herbal Tea from Celestial Seasonings
Style: Chamomile Blend – Region: Blend57 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 2nd, 2015
As someone who greatly prefers peppermint over spearmint, this tea was notably less offensive than I expected. In fact, it isn't even bad. If toning down spearmint gum and putting it in drink form sounds good to you, you'll enjoy this one. It isn't a favorite of mine, but that's due to personal taste rather than qualit...

Hibiscus Blueberry from Republic of Tea
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: Blend83 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Jan. 31st, 2015
Sweet, tart, very fruity, and reasonably inexpensive when buying a container. The flavor of this tea is very well balanced and quite good for a tea bag. I'd prefer an even more intense flavor, and so might use two bags at once. If you crave a flavor that's tart without being intensely sour, this one could easily fit th...

Chamomile Herbal Tea from Celestial Seasonings
Style: Pure Chamomile Tea – Region: Blend63 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Jan. 30th, 2015
As somebody who dislikes plain chamomile in general--I was surprised that it wasn't bad! Not delicious, but not bitter or otherwise unpleasant. Totally acceptable as a cheap bag of chamomile.

Falling Up from Positiffitea
Style: Flavored Rooibos – Region: Blend77 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Jan. 11th, 2015
Better than I expected! I have a sore throat as i drink this and it's satisfying my craving fine a drink that tastes healthful in a citrus-spice siry of way. The rooibos adds body rather than flavor. Cinnamon and orange are tge tastes present. They are prevailing without being overly intense. I'd definitely recommend t...

S'mores Oolong Tea (Smores) from Teavana
Style: Miscellaneous Blend – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Dec. 30th, 2014
I tried this when it was 50% off, and so the price wasn't bad.
I wouldn't call this precisely a s'more, but it is very pleasantly close. The sweetness was present, but not overwhelming, which is great. If you sort of meditate on graham crackers, you can taste them. All in all, a balanced and well done mixture of swe...
Gentle Organic Lemon Ginger Green Tea from Village Tea Company
Style: Flavored Green Tea – Region: Blend87 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Dec. 17th, 2014
Easily one of the best ginger blends I've ever had. Smooth, soothing, invigorating, and bright--without being overpowering. An excellent choice for someone new to ginger teas who might find the straight stuff a bit too intense. The lemon blends well and the green tea gives it body. It doesn't go bitter easily, and mult...

Decaf Earl Grey from Numi Organic Tea
Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend43 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 3/5
Dec. 14th, 2014
Not bitter or otherwise bad, but not really for me. A pretty subdued Earl Grey with a light bergamot and a fairly nondescript black tea base. Preferred mine with a bit of milk. Would drink if it was the only thing available, but much better exists.

Breakfast Blend (Morning Rise) from Numi Organic Tea
Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend63 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Dec. 3rd, 2014
I haven't tried a lot of breakfast blends and black tea isn't my favorite, so I was surprised by how much I enjoyed this one. It has a raisin-like flavor that is satisfying without being overwhelming. I drank my cup with milk and felt that it needed this. I suspect that milk and a bit of lemon juice would help it even ...

Chamomile Lemon (Sweet Meadows) from Numi Organic Tea
Style: Chamomile Blend – Region: Blend97 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Nov. 30th, 2014
FINALLY, a chamomile tea I actually enjoy! Very smooth, almost creamy in flavor, balanced perfectly with the lightly citrusy lemon myrtle. This is the first time I've actually felt calmed and soothed by chamomile, rather than annoyed by it. There's no bitter aftertaste either, even after I accidentally brewed it longer...

Rooibos Chai (Formerly Ruby Chai) from Numi Organic Tea
Style: Rooibos Chai / Spiced Rooibos – Region: Blend85 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Nov. 24th, 2014
A nice chai! I enjoyed the spices and thought they blended well with the rooibos. I didn't try it with milk, but I suspect it would be great with the creaminess that would impart. I particularly notice the cardamom and the cinnamon, though neither is overwhelming. I think this tea could be particularly lovely if they h...
