Passion Full Leaf from Tazo Tea
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Apr. 28th, 2014
This has long been my favorite of the Tazo teas, and with its full leaf form it has managed to improve. The taste is very full and juicy, almost like drinking a hot juice with no sugar added. (Sweetness would only spoil this tea.) The flavor is quite tart, but not acidic. It has a mouthfeel that sort of clings to your ...

Style: Miscellaneous Tea-only Blend – Region: Blend70 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Apr. 2nd, 2014
Sampled at the Starbucks at Woodland Green, West Philadelphia.
I have a sneaking suspicion that this is the same tea as, or at least inspired by, the now-discontinued tea "Tazo Montage", which I never got a chance to review.
Brews up a rich golden-brown cup, about the color of a darker oolong, clearer than a blac...
Passion Full Leaf from Tazo Tea
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: Blend43 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 1/5 Value: 2/5
Apr. 1st, 2014
The original Tazo passion was far too sour for me. I tried this one out of curiosity, and because I wanted to review it. Like all of the new Tazo teas, it has a richer, more complex aroma, in which I'm able to detect the individual whole ingredients more easily.
The orange peel really comes out in the aroma. I al...
Tazo Chai Full Leaf from Tazo Tea
Style: Chai / Spiced Tea – Region: ?????80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Mar. 28th, 2014
Like most of Tazo's teas, I think this improved greatly in the change to the full leaf version. But I don't think it's just the quality of ingredients, I think the blend of spices has changed considerably.
The old, flat tea bag was dominated by clove, and although it wasn't too heavy on the cinnamon, it was also to...
Earl Grey Full Leaf from Tazo Tea
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Mar. 26th, 2014
I've drunk Tazo's Earl Grey in flat tea bags (what they now call "filterbags") a number of times, and only now tried the newer full-leaf version, part of my attempt to sample all of Tazo's full leaf teas before Starbucks switches to serving only Teavana.
The aroma is fresh and light, and oddly pervasive. This is a ...
Zen Full Leaf from Tazo Tea
Style: Flavored Green Tea – Region: Blend70 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Mar. 25th, 2014
Of all of Tazo's teas, I think this one is the most changed from the flat tea bag version to the full leaf version. It's vaguely recognizable but I find, while I hated the old version, this was quite pleasant to drink.
The first cup, which I steeped about 2 minutes (and it was plenty strong) was a rich golden color...
Vanilla Rooibos Parfait Full Leaf from Tazo Tea
Style: Flavored Rooibos – Region: Blend77 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 2/5
Mar. 24th, 2014
I really like this one. It's sweet, smells nice, and has a robust flavor mixture that complements rooibos very well without overpowering it. I only wish the flavor was even more robust or even creamy. I bet this would make a lovely dessert tea if it was more creamy.

Pretty nice blend, although the lemongrass and mint tend to clash (I think).

Mar. 19th, 2014
Overall a very good chai - way I would like chai (I'm Indian) to be. I find other chai brands to be over powered with cinnamon or chicory. Tazo has a better balance in the chai masala.
In Canada, Tazo is more expensive than US, but still worth it.
Let me know what others think is a better chai brand out there.
Darjeeling from Tazo Tea
Style: Darjeeling Black Tea – Region: Darjeeling, India63 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Mar. 15th, 2014
I had the opportunity to sample this at a small cafe that had only two tea bags left in their stock. It obviously was not fresh, as this tea was discontinued quite some time ago, and the copyright on the bag said 2007.
The tea was surprisingly drinkable and still retained quite a lot of flavor and aroma. Flavor wa...
China Green Tips Full Leaf from Tazo Tea

Feb. 25th, 2014
THIS tea. This may be the beginning to solving a mystery.
You see, when I lived in Japan for a year, I would make and enjoy teas just like this. I really love this flavor of green tea. It tastes and especially smells great.
*However*, after almost a year, I realized that certain green teas caused what I'm guessin...

slightly tart, mixed with a pack of sugar. Had it warm but would be good cold too.

This tea was decent. I enjoyed its nice cinnamon flavor and smell. It wasn't too strong because I brewed it for a short time. I prefer my spicey teas to be subtle! I assume the longer suggested brew time would yield a stronger tea.

I tend to favor English Breakfast. Tazo doesn't disappoint me. Nice tea I can count on to 'awake' me just as stated. I steep for 3 mins. I take with cream and a scant of sugar. I brew bags at home, since I can usually buy a whole box for the price Starbucks want to charge me for one cup at the store. So, this is ...

Nov. 13th, 2013
This full-leaf sachet definitely offers an upgrade in experience relative to the old, flat tea bag. The first thing I notice is that there is much more leaf, leading to a very potent cup.
The overall character of the blend is the same, but I thought it was a little more complex: the mint was more herbaceous and sme...
Decaf Chai Filterbag from Tazo Tea
Style: Miscellaneous Blend – Region: ?????73 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Oct. 26th, 2013
This tea is interesting. I noticed that it had rooibos in it, and I thought it might be weird because I don't like rooibos very much, but it's actually pretty good. It has a smooth flavor. The spices are not overpowering, which is refreshing. I added cream and sugar.

A pleasant and drinkable, but somewhat uninteresting spiced tea or masala chai in a tea bag.
Brews a rich reddish brown color. Bold but clean flavor...moderately bitter and not very astringent.
I definitely notice clove as the dominant aroma. There's not much cinnamon, and I like that, as many commercial chai b...
Passion Filterbag from Tazo Tea
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: Blend57 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 3/5
Aug. 28th, 2013
People just love this one - but for some reason, I don't. Too floral and ascerbic and weirdly tart for me. But my 9 year old digs it iced - and Starbucks serves it in vast quantities.
I like Tazo's Green and the old-formula "Om" a bit better.

This is my usual choice on work days mornings. I go to Starbucks, quick and easy. It has good flavor and will help open your eyes on an early morning.
Full leaf, so it has decent taste. Convenient.
Awake English Breakfast Full Leaf from Tazo Tea

May. 29th, 2013
Of all the teas I've sampled from Tazo in both the old tea bags, and the new full leaf sachets, this is the one that I think improved the least.
I thought the old tea was already pretty complex, above average for a tea bag, but I think this one is below average for a whole leaf sachet.
Aroma is mostly malty, typi...
Om from Tazo Tea
Style: Green and Black Tea Blend – Region: Himalayas60 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
May. 29th, 2013
This was the old-style Tazo "Om" that you could get in Starbucks before Tazo revamped it's brand into 2 lines with different package designs. Om is supposed to be a green and black blend and thus it seems to be neither when you steep it. Tasted very good though - so what the heck! Not sure if you can get this formul...

A decent bagged tea available everywhere (and I mean EVERYWHERE) that Starbucks is served - offices, Barnes & Noble, airports, even the local library - I can get a quick cup of this in a pinch. Vegetal and green - a bit "dry" tasting - so I add sweetener sometimes. (For shame, I know!) I love green teas but this is j...

Tazo is carried in Starbucks and is very available and moderately priced. Zen has a green tea base with notes of mint and cintrus. Very good over ice. A solid pick for every-day green tea. I actually prefer this to the China Green Tips (the plain green Tazo that Starbucks carries). Both are good in a pinc (airport,...

Before Tazo switched to what they call whole leaf sachets, this was one of my favorite of their blends. It remains so, and I definitely think it is improved, although not as much as some of them.
Like the original tea bag, I find this has just the right amount of chamomile for me--enough that I notice it but not en...
