Chocolate Peppermint from Tea Horse
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend83 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Aug. 6th, 2013
I'm impressed with this tea. It has a rich flavor. I can really taste the chocolate, and it has a strong black tea that I really like, and it really supports the flavor well. It's a nice blend of flavors. I added cream and sugar.

Lady Grey from Twinings
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Blend47 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 3/5
Aug. 6th, 2013
I was unimpressed with this variation on the classic Earl Grey. Of course, this blend lacks the bergamot which makes Earl Grey so distinctive, I think in an attempt to soften the flavor. Unfortunately, for me it softens the flavor too much.
To me this tea tastes weak and thin. While the overall blend of citrus is...
Earl Grey from Bigelow Tea
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: Blend40 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 2/5
Aug. 6th, 2013
I appreciate Bigelow's attempt at making a nice, strong Earl Grey. Unfortunately, something about the flavor does not agree with my palate. I find it to be very easily overbrewed, and often finicky. Nearly every cup I have tried has an unpleasant, bitter aftertaste.
I'll probably continue to try this one, in ho...
Chai (formerly Indian Spiced Chai) from Twinings
Style: Chai / Spiced Tea – Region: ?????57 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Aug. 6th, 2013
This is a decent chai, pretty standard fare as far as bagged chai teas go. Like most Twinings teas, it is not as strong as I would like. However, it's easy to find and there is nothing particularly fantastic or horrible about the flavor.
Nothing to write home about, but a reliable and easily obtainable chai tea.
Ginger Peach from Republic of Tea
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: ?????83 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Aug. 6th, 2013
This is my favorite loose-leaf tea. Right out of the package, the scent is wonderful, a sign of good things to come.
I have not found a peach blend that so perfectly balances the peach flavor with that of the black tea. It's a nice, strong brew, with a definite peachy tinge. The scent is equally pleasant, smellin...
Earl Grey from Twinings
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: ?????57 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Aug. 6th, 2013
This was the first Earl Grey I ever had, and so I cannot help but compare every Earl Grey since with this one. Probably a bad habit, as this is not an exemplary blend.
The overall flavor is pleasant, mild, and unobtrusive. The scent leaves something to be desired, as does the strength. As Earl Greys go, this one ...
Premium Black Tea - Pure Mint from Twinings
Style: Black Tea with Mint – Region: Blend67 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Aug. 6th, 2013
This is my go-to Twinings tea. Why? I enjoy the strong, minty scent, and in the winter it is most comforting.
That said, the actual flavor leaves something to be desired. It does taste mostly of mint, with only the barest hint of black tea underneath. Now, the minty taste is the reason I like it, but I fully und...
Constant Comment Decaffeinated from Bigelow Tea
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend67 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Aug. 6th, 2013
As this was the first tea I ever tasted, it is only fitting that it should be my first review.
The orange comes through strongly in the aroma, though less so in taste. The flavor is more mild, the tea muted under various spices and a hint of orange. It is not a very strong tea, but it is a reliable and pleasant br...
French Vanilla Chai from Twinings
Style: Vanilla Chai – Region: ?????73 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Aug. 5th, 2013
This tea doesn't smell much like chai, it smells like a combination of orange peel and caramel. I actually really like the flavor, though. I had to brew it for 7 minutes to make it strong enough. The flavors blend together pretty well. I added cream and sugar.

Green Tea with Mint from Bigelow Tea
Style: Green Tea with Mint – Region: ?????57 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Jul. 25th, 2013
This type of tea is always a little bland for my taste. This tea has a nice balance of flavor. I added cream and sugar.

Chocolate Chai from Octavia Tea
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend63 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 2/5
Jul. 24th, 2013
Served in Velvet Sky, Jenkintown.
This blend smells very chocolatey, but upon sipping it the dominant aroma is cinnamon. I wasn't crazy about the Spiced Chai Mate from Octavia for the same reason: too much cinnamon, and I feel the same way about this blend: it would otherwise be very good, but has too much cinnamon...
Decaf Vanilla Nut Creme Black Tea from Stash Tea
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend53 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 3/5
Jul. 23rd, 2013
Not a fave - the sweet vanilla and almost-coffee like nutty notes just don;t seem like "real tea" to me. This one you have to drink hot - it's not a good flavor for iced - not refreshing but it is comforting in a sweet-artificial-vallinin sort of a way. Tea trying to be a coffee? Doesn't work for me.

Pomegranate Green Tea from Republic of Tea
Style: Fruit Green Tea – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jul. 18th, 2013
I really enjoyed this over ice at a local coffee place. It was a very hot July day and I needed some iced tea. Not alot of sweetening required as there is a natural fruity-sweetness to the pomegranate. Lovely.

Todays Special Organic Ooo-long Tea With Plum (Oolong) from Blue Q
Style: Flavored Oolong – Region: ?????73 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Jul. 16th, 2013
I thought this tea was a steal and really good for being from novelty company! I've found their boxes for $1.50 -- not bad if you ask me.
The tea smelled like plum, and had a nice taste, albeit bitter, but nice. It was strong for an oolong and I thought it tasted more like a black.
If you are looking for a subtl...
Lavender Sencha Green Tea from Wegmans
Style: Flavored Green Tea – Region: Japan73 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jul. 8th, 2013
The aroma of lavender overpowers the aroma of the sencha with the fresh leaves, it is sad but I love the smell of lavender and am a sucker for anything lavender flavored.
The brewed tea has more of the bright green aroma of the sencha which blends well with the lavender. The color is also a really lovely light gree...
French Breakfast from Octavia Tea
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend57 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 2/5
Jul. 3rd, 2013
Served at Velvet Sky Bakery in Jenkintown.
This is called French Breakfast but it conjures up more of a Russian image to me, especially the combination of rose with other flavorings, against the background of a strong black tea.
I was expecting this to be stronger than some of Octavia's other teas, which tend to ...
Passionfruit from Adagio Teas
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon70 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Jul. 3rd, 2013
Now I am thoroughly confused, as I thought this was a Shanti tea - but was informed that the Shanti Pasionfruit Black has been d/c'ed. Meanwhile...
I usually don't care for passionfruit - but I had a Delicious Iced Passionfruit Black tea - and man, was it good. Granted, it was the middle or summer - so this was a ...
Passionfruit Black from Shanti Tea
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: India70 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Jul. 3rd, 2013
I usually don't care for passionfruit - but I had a Shanti Iced Passionfruit Black tea - and man, was it good. Granted, it was the middle or summer - so this was a fruity, refreshing sip.
I don't think this tea is discontinued - as I just had it.
Emperor's Genmaicha from Octavia Tea
Style: Genmaicha – Region: Japan80 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 2/5
Jun. 26th, 2013
Most genmaicha is more or less similar and I often find it hard to judge them. This was not true of this tea--it was completely different, and quickly became my favorite example of this style of tea.
Without a doubt the most aromatic genmaicha that I've ever tried. The base tea has a stronger presence, and more di...
Organic Jasmine Pearls Green Tea from Wegmans
Style: Jasmine Pearls – Region: China40 / 100 Aroma: 3/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 2/5
Jun. 24th, 2013
Like the other Wegmans jasmine teas, I found the dry leaf to have a cloying, bubble gum like sweetness.
Unfortunately, I found this aroma persisted into the brewed cup more than I'd like. Something about it screams artificial. I don't know if this tea is naturally scented but it's one of the less natural Jasmine v...
Chai Masala Tulsi Tea from Organic India
Style: Chai / Spiced Tea – Region: ?????80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Jun. 21st, 2013
The aroma on this Chai is delightful! A mix of earthiness, peppery, cloves, and something I am not familiar with which I am assuming it is the Tulsi.
The taste is also quite good, the masala blend is well balanced and the base tea is very mild. I really like the herby taste of the tea and think it blends well with ...
Green Tea Tulsi Tea from Organic India
Style: Flavored Green Tea – Region: ?????63 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Jun. 21st, 2013
This tea wasn't exactly what I was expecting when I tried it for lunch the other day. I was surprised by its strong spicy smell, and from the strength of the smell, how weak the tea was.
Compared to other Tulsi teas I've had, this one was more aromatic. The flavor itself reminded me of a regular green tea, mild wi...
Mtn High Chai from Two Leaves and a Bud
Style: Chai / Spiced Tea – Region: Assam, India60 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Jun. 20th, 2013
The aroma of this tea is delightful! The smell is sweet and spicy, very rich with lots of clove.
Sadly the aroma and the taste did not match, I found the tea underwhelming. Still a nice clove taste but really that is it. I am sadly disappointed.
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...
Organic Jasmine Silver Needle Tea from Wegmans
Style: Jasmine Silver Needle – Region: China80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jun. 16th, 2013
I was really impressed with the scent and flavor of this tea, this is probably one of the best jasmine teas I've had. Good job, Wegmans!
