Constant Comment® from Bigelow Tea
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: ?????70 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jan. 24th, 2019
"This tea. This tea is good... good for me." ...a tune my grandfather used to sing when he'd take his first sip of this tea... Every time I would serve it to him as a kid, he would sing it. It brought joy to my young ears. Oh my, this brings many a tear to my eye. I would ALWAYS comment in response, "Grandpa, shut up! ...

This tea is good! I was a little over-hyped for it... It's one of the best lemon flavor tea's I've had, but I have never had a great one, personally. As with most fruit flavored tea's I've tried: MORE TEA FLAVOR, LESS FRUIT FLAVOR (please).

I like this as a very neutral delicious tasting Earl grey. The bergamot is much more mild than other teas which makes it perfect to go with various desserts.

Jan. 16th, 2019
One of my favorite Earl grey teas for use in Royal milk tea. The bergamot flavoring is very strong making it overwhelming to drink straight, but with milk and honey it’s like having dessert in a glass.

Jan. 11th, 2019
The dry tea smells very strongly of bergamot and very much like Bigelow's regular Earl Grey.
The taste is much different than the regular Bigelow. Much more tea shines through the citrus. I suspect that the base tea is the Steep English Breakfast, which is a flavorful Sri Lankan/Ceylon tea with a mellow cocoa bitter...
Staatsburgh Blend from Harney and Sons
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: ?????80 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Dec. 16th, 2018
I found this on sale at the Mills Mansion / Staatsburgh State Historic Site in Rhinebeck, NY, which is the only place you can buy it. It appears to have an inexpensive Chinese black tea base, which is flavored with apricot, red cornflowers, hazelnut, nutmeg, and something called "cinnamon spice." This is floral and s...

Style: Black Tea with Mint – Region: ?????45 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 2/5
Dec. 12th, 2018
Both the dry tea bag and brewing tea smell like straight-up spearmint oil.
Bigelow's base tea is too mild to stand up to the spearmint and I can neither taste nor smell any tea at all. Aside from the color, this is indistinguishable from plain spearmint. The spearmint is good, but I expect to taste tea in my tea.

Orange Spice from Chado High Tea

Dec. 7th, 2018
Preparing this tea brought back a fond childhood memory from about age 8. We were poor, but my mom had bought a box of "orange pekoe" tea as a rare indulgence, and I was excited to try some, thinking it literally was orange-flavored of whatever "pekoe" tea was. Imagine my disappointment, then, when it had no flavor a...

Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: ?????60 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Nov. 7th, 2018
This is a surprisingly complex tea. Good Earth bills it as a "zesty and fruity marmalade flavor" but I'm not sure I entirely agree. It does taste like marmalade, but it's not what I would call "zesty". Initially, it's predominantly citrus and could be considered zesty, but it quickly mellows to a more balanced, smooth ...

Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: ?????65 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Nov. 7th, 2018
I've said before that ginger tea can be a bit overpowering at times. In this case, it's one of the best blended ginger teas I've found to date. The ginger is there, but not overpowering. The apricot is full-flavored but not overly fruity. All in all, it's a very well-balanced tea that is a pleasure to drink.

I'm a big fan of berry... anything, so I was enthusiastic about a chance to try a few of the berry teas from Solstice, particularly after experiencing some of their other black teas. Blackberry was a good choice for them, and this tea shines in its aroma. It is a prominent blackberry aroma, and quite pleasant.
On th...
Vanilla Black Tea from Solstice Tea Traders
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: ?????60 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Oct. 18th, 2018
Straight vanilla black teas are a bit hard to come by. The majority of the time, the vanilla is blended with some other flavor and, when it isn't, it usually comes across tasting more like a cheap vanilla extract than true vanilla. Thankfully, this isn't the case for Solstice Tea's attempt.
The aroma isn't overwhelm...
Gold Rush Passion Peach Black Tea from Solstice Tea Traders
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: ?????55 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Oct. 16th, 2018
After reading a plethora of good reviews, I decided to order a few samples from Solstice Tea Traders. Gold Rush was my first test subject. Others have indicated, and I would agree, that this tea is best served hot. When it cools, it loses something both in flavor and aroma.
The aroma is subtle to begin with. It's a ...
Earl Grey Decaffeinated from Twinings
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: ?????55 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Oct. 16th, 2018
A weakly-flavored, not very aromatic tea experience. If you're looking for a very mild, decaffeinated tea that's easy on the stomach, this is a good choice, but if you were hoping for intense flavors, maybe try something else.

Oct. 6th, 2018
This tea does pull off the black forest cake aroma fairly well, but the flavor is one of a kind. It's not overwhelmingly chocolate, the initial flavor takes more from cherry, but the aftertaste is just like a warm slice of black forest cake. I'm not a big fan of chocolate teas, but this one was well worth trying!

I've never really understood the pumpkin spice craze. These days, almost everything comes in pumpkin spice, so I guess it's no surprise that tea does too. With the limited exposure I've had to pumpkin spice "things", I wasn't sure what to expect. I can definitely smell pumpkin (and spice), so the aroma's there. The fla...

I think I keep expecting too much out of orange teas from Stash. I keep hoping that they'll have a distinct orange flavor, but none quite measure up to what I want. This tea has a definitively orange aroma, but the flavor is very subtle. It's there, but still feels more like a basic black tea than an orange tea to me. ...

I like decaf Constant Comment, but hadn't gotten around to trying the original version. It turns out, it's not much different. I can taste a little of the maltiness in the finish, but that's about it. I already know that decaf black teas have little tea flavor, but I was hoping there would be more in this one. A bit of...

About 15 years ago, out by L.A., I saw a dude outside a smoothie shop dressed in yellow hat, yellow shoes and yellow tights, wearing a lemon costume. Had he asked me for a lift, I could have handed him a bag of this tea and satisfied the request.
Otherwise, the tea is not too useful. It reminded me a lot of flavor...
Lemon Twist from Twinings

Jul. 2nd, 2018
It's good, but it's just a very simple lemon flavor. The black tea flavor is too weak. Tastes a little too artificial. Twinings has better lemon/citrus flavored tea's, for sure.

Raspberry Royale® Black Tea from Bigelow Tea

Jun. 9th, 2018
I like this tea. The flavor is quite complex and I'm not sure which flavors are the tea itself and which are "other natural flavors." The malt sweetness of the tea is foremost and the raspberry flavor is unmistakable, but subtle. The tea tastes alternately of Ceylon and Assam, coupling the malt with an almost roasted f...

Christmas in a cup. I look forward to this tea every holiday season! Even though there are no rules to drinking it all year long. I love the creamy vanilla taste added to a simple black tea. After brewing, I will add a splash of vanilla creamer or milk to the top. Perfect holiday tea.

Just spent a week drinking this tea. We were on a week long backpacking trip and since She Who Must Be Obeyed likes Earl Grey I packed this. Drank it every morning. It was hot, caffeinated and quite enjoyable, actually. Smoother and much more bergamot flavor than the bag of Bigelow's Earl Grey that had somehow hitched ...
