Delicate taste and flavor, easy to drink at any time and any occasion, and great for serving guests. An excellent tea all around.

Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: ?????37 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 1/5
Sep. 15th, 2014
Free in my office circa 2014. This "decaf" black tea with a hefty dose of citric acid (lemon juice?? I think not.) is available and drinkable but I would not go out of my way for it. We also have Bigelow's "Classic" green tea in the office. It's a step above Lipton-kick-your-ass black, but that's about it. No big w...

I haven't tried a lot of decaffeinated black teas, but I'm starting to think I may prefer them. I haven't tried the regular version of this tea yet, but I appreciate that it doesn't have the bitterness I commonly associate with some black teas. It tastes fruity and fresh, and smells wonderful too.
Though it's made o...

Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Blend57 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Aug. 31st, 2014
A sealed tea bag, served at a Unitarian Church in North Philly. This is the first tea I've tried from Eastern Shore tea, and, for a humble tea bag of flavored tea, I was impressed.
The base tea is strong and has a distinct character of its own, and the fruit flavoring is very subtle. I don't notice much blueberry,...
Lemon & Lime Twist from Ahmad Tea
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Blend50 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 3/5
Jul. 28th, 2014
With the first brewing I could detect a lime scent, but it was fairly subdued. The citrus flavors are even more muted when drinking. They did seem to smooth out the black tea for me, but not enough. I would have appreciated a brighter tasting cup.
There's a hint of bitterness at the end, though it wasn't intense. Th...
Strawberry Sensation Black Tea from Ahmad Tea
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Blend50 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 3/5
Jul. 25th, 2014
Not my tea, unfortunately--too strong with the black tea flavor for me. The little bit of strawberry flavor made the bitterness a little more palatable, so I certainly enjoyed this more than I would a simple black tea. The aroma was better, with the same two elements but with the fruit coming through a bit more strongl...

Smells like peaches and cream oatmeal!! mmm! Best smelling tea ever! Unfortunately all that richness and flavor in the smell turns into a slightly bitter black tea that actually has only mild fruit flavor. The black tea itself is bold though.

Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Yunnan, China70 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Jul. 6th, 2014
Definitely one of the best black teas I've tried. It isn't bitter (even though I accidentally brewed it for almost 9 minutes), and the blueberry flavor goes with it very well. The fruitiness is present, but not overwhelming and the flavor seems natural. As usual, I didn't add any sugar, milk, or lemon juice.
If you ...
Apple Refresh from Ahmad Tea
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Blend67 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Jul. 6th, 2014
very good smell and taste....the strength is just about right too...steeped 4 minutes but didn't boil as directed. Perhaps a bit longer steep next time. The amount of flavoring seems spot on....not overpoweringly artificial or an underpowered hint.

Style: Lemon Black Tea – Region: ?????53 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Jun. 10th, 2014
Aroma and flavor are basically of lemon, but is kind of a neutral thing. It's not tart or sour and it never comes bitter; actually, it's kind of sweet. There are some floral notes too.
At least it's a cheap tea, I would say it's of a fair value.

great smell, very strong strawberry and black tea...taste is strong black tea with lighter amount of strawberry, but good! Strawberry doesn't taste fake...bold cup!

alex is right on the artificial lifesavers smell...taste is similarly artificial...no real substance to this tea...

May. 30th, 2014
The perfect soothing tea for relaxation and a good alternative to classic chamomile tea. The scent instantly calms my most anxious moments. In terms of flavor, the herbal lavender mellows out the tang of the lemongrass. You need to use an extremely fine, industrial-grade strainer since the tiny lemongrass slivers tend ...

May. 24th, 2014
This was my first month of Handmade Tea. I could barely smell and taste the lemon, but I still like this tea. I added a little sugar and I liked the result. I thought this tea had a lovely mild flavor. I’m going to try this as a cold brew later. I may add a little extra lemon and see how that goes.
Four Red Fruits from Kusmi Tea
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Blend47 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 2/5
May. 6th, 2014
Smells nice! But there's not much in the flavor department.
I hope this isn't going to be the trend with Kusmi teas. I'm glad I bought the smaller sampler sizes and I hope I'm going to find at least a few that are winners for me!
Black Mango from The Tao of Tea
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Blend63 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
May. 5th, 2014
This flavored tea has a nice aroma, but I'm missing the mango when I taste it.
The tea was brewed for 5 minutes. It really just tastes like a plain black tea. It's not bad, but if I wanted a plain black tea, that's what I would have purchased.
Edit (050814): I am drinking this again, but with a little suga...
Raspberry from Adagio Teas

I'm bummed about this one. I'm glad I bought a small sample size to try. The un brewed and brewed aromas are excellent, but the flavor is lacking.
This was brewed as directed. I used boiling water in the French press for 3 min. That seemed too short for a black tea, so I sampled and it was weak. Let it go to 4.5 mi...
Cherry from Adagio Teas

Apr. 30th, 2014
This could be a new fave! The unbrewed tea aroma is amazeballs. Stepped for 5 min with boiling water, there was no bitterness here.
The cherry flavor is pleasantly noticeable, without being overpowering. The base black tea they use seems like the perfect showcase for the cherry flavor. I wish I had some of this...
Pom Tango from DAVIDsTEA

Apr. 29th, 2014
Good aroma, good flavor. This was brewed for 5 minutes and served hot without milk or sugar. It tastes more strongly of mango than pomegranate.
I liked it, but it didn't wow me. This would probably be great as an iced tea and I'll update if I try it that way.
Lady Grey from Twinings

This is one of the more memorable teas I've tried. Strong (but not overwhelming) flavour, very pleasant aroma. I found a tiny touch of milk was nice with it.

Lady Grey is my favorite breakfast tea! It has a soft, floral and citrus fragrance and tastes lighter and smoother than Earl Grey. Add cream and sugar and this tea becomes a delicate and refreshing alternative to coffee or English Breakfast tea.

Of all four of Ahmad's fruit-flavored black teas, this is the one I liked the least. It has a fairly artificial apple flavoring...it does not smell at all like an actual apple, but rather, like the "green apple" candy flavor, familiar to me from my childhood.
I don't know if Ahmad uses a different base tea for thei...
Mango Ceylon from Republic of Tea

I like the convenience of RoT's round brown tea bags - and Mango Ceylon is a fruity, good-tasting choice - but I much prefer the ginger peach. Makes a good iced tea.

Meh. Again, I was underwhelmed by this tea from Twinings. Like their Earl Grey tea, I certainly appreciated the use of citrus to balance out the black tea. However, I found the overall effect unimpressive. I really need to try a high quality Earl Grey or Lady Grey tea to give these styles a fair shot. I'm glad I have a...
