Mint Herbal Tea from Rituals

Style: Peppermint Tea – Region: ?????

76 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Nov. 29th, 2024

Peppermint tea is going to get a good rating from me in general, since I like the flavor so much, unless the leaves are stale and/or weak. This is neither—flavorful and smooth, with a nice dry- and wet-bag aroma, as well as smell and taste in-cup. A restaurant serving this tea, especially in a small cup to maximize...

Chamomile Herbal Tea from Rituals

Style: Pure Chamomile Tea – Region: ?????

73 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5

Another in an assortment of Rituals teas I got from a couple of motels this spring, their chamomile offering made a very nice impression too. With only a very few exceptions, most chamomile teas in my experience differ very little, and when they do, tend to drop off markedly because of lack of freshness. Food-service...

Darjeeling Black Tea from Rituals

Style: Darjeeling Black Tea – Region: Darjeeling, India

Here's another new Rituals tea for me (and this website), also first sampled at the Days Inn in Hays, KS. As usual, and even though Hays water isn't bad, I also hauled a bag home to try on my well water for fair comparison with other ratings.

Upon ripping open the foil-lined package, the smell that greeted my nos...

Orange Flavored Jasmine Green Tea from Rituals

Style: Flavored Green Tea – Region: Blend

73 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Jun. 6th, 2024

This peculiar combination came from a Days Inn in Hays, KS, and tasted really nice on their water, so I brought a bag home to try as well. Rituals Teas in general seem to perform above most food-service offerings, and this was no exception.

The type made me curious, because I've never seen orange and jasmine paired...

Oriental Green Tea from Rituals

Style: Flavored Green Tea – Region: ?????

66 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Mar. 11th, 2023

As with the remainder of this brand of US Foods teas, it's a food-service product not sold directly to the public, but still available in some hotels and motels. I got this at a Wingate by Wyndham motel in Frisco, TX, drinking some there and saving a couple others to try later.

The bag came in a sealed foil-paper...

English Breakfast Black Tea from Rituals

Style: English Breakfast – Region: ?????

63 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Oct. 17th, 2022

Not great, but decent and tolerable: that's how I'll characterize this blend. In my relatively limited experience, many food-service black teas (including English Breakfasts) taste rather flat, hollow, sometimes excessively bitter, or often weak, as if they've either been allowed to sit out in the open for 20 years, ...

Orange Pekoe & Pekoe Cut Black Tea from Rituals

Style: Black Tea – Region: ?????

Aug. 25th, 2017

One of the minor mysterious adventures of getting last-minute, dirt-cheap, cut-rate, online deals on resort hotels (as I did one stormy evening in Sedona, AZ) is to sample new teas otherwise not often consumed. Sedona has decent water, but I also brought a bag home to try (apples-to-apples comparison).

For a food...
