Guangzhou Milk Oolong (Quangzhou Milk Oolong) from DAVIDsTEA
Style: Flavored Oolong – Region: China80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Mar. 25th, 2013
I should say I like this tea, but I do have a gripe about labeling. Milk oolongs aren't, in and of themselves, flavored teas. As I understand it, the name is applied to a particular oolong variety that has a milk-y flavor and aroma. However, some companies add flavor to their milk oolongs further to increase the milkyn...

Earl Grey Tea from Frontier

This tea is good. It started out tasting weak, but as I got further down in the cup it started tasting pretty good. I added cream and sugar.

Organic Masala Chai Black Tea from Wegmans
Style: Chai / Spiced Tea – Region: India77 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Mar. 21st, 2013
I thought that this tea had a really nice aroma to its dried leaf, which had strong spicy tones. The brew wasn't as fragrant, but I still enjoyed its taste. This tea wasn't anything spectacular, but it wasn't all bad. I thought it could have had a stronger flavor, which the dried leaf suggested. The price seemed reas...

Earl Grey Tea from Frontier
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: Blend57 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Mar. 17th, 2013
An Earl Grey with a classic flavor profile, but on the weak side. I see on Frontier's new website that this tea uses the Irish Breakfast Tea as a base, probably a good choice because a strong base tea is needed to hold its own against the bergamot flavoring.
Dry leaf is finely broken, and has a classic Earl Grey fl...
Masala Chai Black Tea from Arbor Teas

Mar. 13th, 2013
The smell of this tea was amazing! I loved the complex mixture of spices in the dried leaf, so much so that I let a nearby friend smell it as well - she agreed! I was a little bit disappointed that the tea wasn't flavored as strong as the dried leaf suggested, but overall I was happy with my cup and would drink it ag...

Genmaimatcha Green Tea from Wegmans
Style: Genmaicha – Region: Japan60 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Mar. 13th, 2013
A pleasant, perfectly drinkable tea that is dirt cheap. Although I didn't think it was great, it had few objectionable qualities and I actually think it is a pretty good buy. It seems to have much more toasted rice than tea leaf, and has a bitterness and sourness that I normally don't encounter in either genmaicha or...

I've had this tea both on it's own and with the addition of milk an honey, and have liked it both ways. It smells good but not amazing, and tastes better than it smells. I like the fact that the tea can be brewed strongly without tasting bitter. It's a really good price for the quality of the tea.

White Ayurvedic Chai Tea from Teavana
Style: Chai / Spiced Tea – Region: Blend73 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 2/5
Mar. 11th, 2013
I bought this tea while it was on sale. It smells like heaven. It can get a tad bitter if brewed too strongly, but has a delicious flavor overall. That being said, at 10 dollars for two ounces of tea, it is a tad above my price range for normal tea drinking.

This tea is pretty good. It has an interesting flavor. It's strong enough and not too bitter. I added cream and sugar.

Earl Grey from Dilmah
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: Blend67 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Mar. 9th, 2013
To be honest, I'm not a huge Earl Grey drinker, but rather enjoy the odd cup during the hotter months. Dilmah's take on this famous tea is very good. The black Ceylon base is perfect, using its characteristic refreshing notes to mingle with the citrus, bergamot flavouring. Lovely aroma and a nice, clean refreshing tast...

Jasmine Dragon Phoenix Pearls Green Tea from Teavana
Style: Jasmine Pearls – Region: ?????67 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 2/5
Mar. 9th, 2013
This struck me as a solid-quality Jasmine tea, but nothing extraordinary.
Unlike many of Teavana's offerings, it's on the strong side.
Flavor is smooth, but there is a bitter undertone. To me, this tea felt fairly strongly caffeinated. Aroma is perfumey, more than I like it to be. The base tea is very mild and...
Green Tea Tulsi Tea from Organic India
Style: Flavored Green Tea – Region: ?????40 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 2/5
Mar. 8th, 2013
For some reason, I did not expect to like this one, I think in large part because I've had pretty bad experiences with finely-broken green tea in tea bags, and I also don't see Tulsi's characteristic flavor and aroma blending as well with green teas as I think it does with black tea.
Although I still wasn't crazy ab...
Earl Grey from Ahmad Tea

Mar. 8th, 2013
I like this tea. It has a good amount of flavor and it blends well with the tea. The aroma is really nice. It tastes a little bit weak, though. I had to steep it for 6 1/2 minutes to get it strong enough. I added cream and sugar.

Tropical Goji Green from Two Leaves and a Bud
Style: Fruit Green Tea – Region: Blend63 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Mar. 8th, 2013
*disclaimer* This is a rating from someone who doesn't usually like flavored teas - if I usually drink flavored teas, I like the flavor to be minimal!
Because of my preference for subtlety, I really liked this tea. The flavor was mild and the texture smooth, which made a good brew in my book! The only complaint I ...
Organic Earl Grey from Wegmans
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: Blend63 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Mar. 8th, 2013
This Earl Grey has a classic British character.
The dry leaf is very aromatic, with a strong, fresh smell.
Upon brewing, steeping for 6 minutes, this produces a rich cup with moderate strength of flavor and a moderate body. The Bergamot is bold but not overpowering, and the base tea has somewhat of a warming qua...
Organic Masala Chai Black Tea from Wegmans
Style: Chai / Spiced Tea – Region: India70 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Mar. 1st, 2013
A good masala chai blend, but not among the best I've tried.
This tea looks to contain a nice blend of dry spices. I see a lot of cardamom pods, which is a good sign.
I thought the base tea was a little on the weak side. In spite of being broken into small pieces, it didn't seem to impart much strength to the c...
Superfine Jasmine Downy Dragon Pearls Green Tea from TeaVivre
Style: Jasmine Pearls – Region: Fuding, Fujian, China80 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Feb. 26th, 2013
This is meant to be a 'high-end' jasmine pearl tea, which, to be honest, is not something that I had thought to look into until I got a free sample of it. To me, jasmine teas are lovely, but the jasmine always overpowers the tea, making them all taste roughly similar.
I found this tea to be genuinely a cut above oth...
Vanilla Bean Black Tea from Arbor Teas
Style: Vanilla Black Tea – Region: Blend60 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Feb. 26th, 2013
I can see how some people would like this tea if they are into vanilla. It had a strong vanilla aroma that smelled a little too sweet for me, reminiscent of the vanilla extract I use when baking. With the smell being so strong, surprisingly, it had barely a hint of vanilla in its flavor. I only tasted vanilla toward...

Cinnamon Black Tea from Arbor Teas

Feb. 23rd, 2013
Cinnamon. Does anything smell so good as a freshly made cinnamon roll? No, of course not. Surely the combination of cinnamon with black tea would go equally well, right? Alas, the aroma of the dry leaves smells like, well, a stick of cinnamon. The leaves look fairly generic too -- a typical black tea blend. The a...

Jasmine Petal from Two Leaves and a Bud

Feb. 23rd, 2013
This has to be one of my favorite teas! Its light and exquisite floral smell often has me brewing two cups, which is rare! Its flavor is smooth and subtle adding a nice mellow compliment to the aroma. I look forward to relaxing to many more cups of Jasmine Petal in the future :)

Vanilla Caramel Black Tea from Bigelow Tea

Feb. 19th, 2013
I like the aroma of this tea, but it reminds me a little bit of those buttered-popcorn-flavored jelly beans. I can't brew it strong enough. I kind of like the flavor, but it also seems kind of bland. I added cream and sugar.

Feb. 17th, 2013
The dry leaves have a distinct aroma similar to vanilla extract, as would be expected but also an underlying chocolate aroma that sneaks in later. The teas leaves are small and have a very dark brown color.
After brewing, I couldn't really detect the vanilla aroma in the leaves. Instead, they gave off an earthy sc...
Jasmine Tea Bags from Rishi Tea
Style: Jasmine Tea – Region: Hubei, China80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Feb. 17th, 2013
This struck me as one of the better jasmine teas I've had in a tea bag or sachet, if not the best. I'd compare it against Two Leaves and a Bud's Jasmine Petal, or Novus Tea's Jasmine Tea. I prefer it to both; it seemed more similar to Novus Tea's offering.
Slightly perfumey. Very full-bodied; somewhat astringent ...
Matcha Infused Genmaicha from Aiya
Style: Genmaicha – Region: Japan73 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 2/5
Feb. 13th, 2013
Straight out of the bag, this tea had a strong matcha smell, very grassy in a fresh and invigorating way.
I didn't have a lot of tea to play with - I had only a small sample, and thanks to a spill I had an even smaller sample than usual - so I brewed it as close to the recommended instructions as possible - 194 F f...
Earl Green (Bergamot Oolong) from Rishi Tea
Style: Earl Grey Green Tea – Region: Blend67 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 2/5
Feb. 12th, 2013
I find it interesting that this tea is sometimes presented as green and other times presented as oolong. The base is pouchong or bao zhong, and it is flavored with bergamot as Earl Grey tea is...it is NOT the same as Yongchun Fo Shou, the other tea called Bergamot Oolong, a tea I like very much.
Edgy, lemony, and s...
