Lemon & Lime Twist from Ahmad Tea
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Blend90 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Feb. 21st, 2014
I think this is by far the best lemon tea I've had in a bag! I really can't wait to get more.
Because it's atypical of me to like any type of flavored tea, especially lemon, I feel that my liking this tea *a lot* is substantial.
I brewed it on the light side for 3 minutes, and was elated with the results: a f...
Strawberry Sensation Black Tea from Ahmad Tea
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Blend50 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Feb. 21st, 2014
Aroma is, well, very strawberry-ey. Smells initially like strawberry and little else, a little like strawberry jam or strawberry shortcake...not so much like fresh strawberries.
The base tea is not as evident, aroma-wise, but it shines through in the flavor: bold, with a bit of bite. Brews a rich brown color, but ...
Cherry Black Tea from Impra Tea
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon57 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 19th, 2014
Another tea bag purchased from Bell's Market in NE Philly. I was expecting to like this flavored tea a lot less than the blackcurrant, because I tend to like blackcurrant as a flavoring with tea much more than cherry.
This has an artificial-smelling cherry scent. It smells more like cherry syrup or an artificially...
Blackcurrant Black Tea from Impra Tea
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon47 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Feb. 18th, 2014
I'm a huge fan of Twinings blackcurrant-flavored black tea, and it's the only example of such a tea that I've ever tried, so I was curious to try this one. Unfortunately, I don't like it as much.
The fruit flavoring is much stronger in this tea...it's so strong that walking out of the room, and coming back, I can s...
Lemon & Lime Twist from Ahmad Tea
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Blend53 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Feb. 15th, 2014
An interesting change of pace; not my favorite.
Much more lime than lemon in the aroma; this is no standard lemon black tea. The base tea is bold, strong, and malty. The overall effect is a very edgy cup, completely unlike how adding lemon usually takes the edge off a strong black tea.
Nice, and interesting, bu...
Peach & Passion Fruit from Ahmad Tea
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Blend77 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Feb. 13th, 2014
It's a select group of fruit-flavored teas that I like, and it's even less frequent that there's an inexpensive one in a tea bag that is among my favorites--but this is one of these teas.
Aroma is fruity but pungent and deep; the fruitiness is not transient or fleeting, but rather is persistent, and accompanied by d...
Pomegranate Black Tea from Bigelow Tea
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Blend53 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Feb. 12th, 2014
Thank you to my friend Liz for sharing this one with me. Take my review in the context that I tend not to like fruit-flavored tea bags, so although my rating number is not great, this is actually a pretty positive review: I'm comparing it against all my favorite loose-leaf artisan teas.
Tea bag smells intensely fru...
Mango Maui Black Tea from Hawaiian Islands Tea Company
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Blend53 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 3/5
Jan. 28th, 2014
Smells great - a strong fruity Mango/Tropical scent but doesn't taste nearly as good as it sounds/smells. In fact - if yuou sweeten it it is cloying and "fakey-mango".
I got this for free from my mother-in-law who visited Hawaii. I don;t think I'd go out of my way to seek this brand out, nor purchase it.
Too bad...
Blood Orange from Eastern Shore Tea
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: ?????80 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Jan. 16th, 2014
20, staple free, tea bags are in individually wrapped, foil, easy-tear, bags, that are inside a bag with a red, ribbon closure and an illustration of sliced blood oranges. The packaging was charming, and the idea of trying a blood oranges in black tea exciting.
The caffeine in this cup feels powerful for an 8 oz. It...
Cranberry Pear from DAVIDsTEA
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Blend63 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Jan. 12th, 2014
This is my first DavidsTea. I received in a tea swap called The 12 Days of Christmas. We had a tea for each day, this was Day#1. The tea itself was fragrant and pleasant to look at. Taste was nice, I only detected the taste of the black tea and pear as well as the artificial flavoring they add and wondered if this ...

Kenyan Black Tea with Lemon (Teabags) from Ajiri Tea
Style: Lemon Black Tea – Region: Blend93 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Jan. 9th, 2014
I thought this to be a very original blend, top-notch.
Very intense lemon fragrance, holding its own against the base tea. Like most lemon myrtle, there's a deep woody or resinous undertone, making a very complex aroma, combined with the malty but fresh aroma of the Kenyan black tea. The lemon myrtle really holds ...
Lemon Twist from Twinings
Style: Lemon Black Tea – Region: ?????40 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 2/5
Jan. 2nd, 2014
Thanks to E. Alex Gerster for this sample. It was not my cup of tea but was interesting to try!
This tea smells lemony, but not intensely so. The lemon is a bit artificial smelling, more suggestive of lemon lifesavers or other lemon candy than natural lemon-scented herbs or actual lemon fruit. There is a hint of ...
Lemon Twist from Twinings
Style: Lemon Black Tea – Region: ?????70 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 5/5
Dec. 21st, 2013
When I was a teenager, black tea with a slice of lemon was what you were served in most restaurants around Miami when you asked for a cup of tea. Nothing fancy, usually not anything very memorable, and usually some off name brand that the restaurant bought at a deep discount. It was more of something just to accompany ...

Pineapple Waikiki Black Tea from Hawaiian Islands Tea Company
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Blend57 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 3/5
Dec. 3rd, 2013
Smells great - but had an unpleasant bitter aftertaste - even moreso than other mid-grade bagged black teas that i have tried. Meanwhile, the pineapple scent was delightful - too bad ot does not taste as good as it smells. Steeps quickly and brews-up dark!

Lemon Lift Black Tea from Bigelow Tea

Sep. 4th, 2013
very good lemon zest smell, taste falls a bit flat though...the lemon-y-ness definitely becomes more mild and I wish it didn't quite so much...however, this seems like a good tea for when you're sick!

Peach Cool Brew Iced Tea from Celestial Seasonings

Aug. 19th, 2013
Had the K-cup version of this tea (sweet peach black tea) but drank it hot...strong but good...quite peachy....and quite bitter but not too bad.... a little sugar should make it even better! Already a bit sweet though too.

Lady Grey from Twinings
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Blend53 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 1/5 Value: 4/5
Aug. 19th, 2013
I have no complaints about the aroma, it smells like a mix of oranges and lemons, which is pleasant, especially first thing in the morning when you need an extra zing.
Sadly the flavor left a lot to be desired, it tasted too artificial. Like drinking a particularly weak tea that accidentally had some perfume dumped...
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...

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.
Blueberry from Adagio Teas
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon80 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
May. 30th, 2013
I am extremely picky when it comes to blueberry flavored tea, I want it to taste like ripe, sweet, blueberries and not tart unpleasant fruit. So many teas make the tart mistake but not this one! The aroma when opening the package is blueberries all the way, an added plus when you actually see blueberries in the leaves....

Black Currant from Tea Forte
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Blend73 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 2/5
May. 13th, 2013
Super expensive (as all the cutesy-packaged Tea Forte teas are!) but so deliciously fruity and easy to drink. (You can get 2 cups easily out of a bag - so keep that in mind. Needs no sweetener. Very good for first-time tea drinkers and the adorable packaging (and high price) make it a suitable hostess gift. Fun. (S...

Not a fan of Bieglow Teas - but my old company had them and Lemon Lift was better (to me) than the dreaded "Constant Comment" - an orange/spice. Just OK. Not a fan. I actually like the I love Lemon herbal tea (which is a tisane and contains no tea at all) a bit better when I have a cold. This is a step about Lipton...
