Maui Mango from Tiesta Tea
Style: Fruit (Herbal) Tea – Region: Blend63 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 2/5
Mar. 12th, 2023
With this, I will have reviewed a tea named Mango Maui (Hawaiian Islands Tea Company) and Maui Mango (Tiesta). They're radically different, however. The former is a very good, flavored black tea, while this one is mostly dried fruit by volume (pineapple, orange slices, mango, and strawberry) with flowers sprinkled in...

Nutty Almond Cream from Tiesta Tea
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: Blend40 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 2/5
Feb. 9th, 2021
I usually like strong teas and this one has a very subtle flavor with no substantial base to it. When I first tasted it I liked the creamy flavor, but after a while I've gotten tired of it. It has a bright red hue that turns pale pink when I add cream or milk. Probably because of the beets. I can barely taste the almo...

Cocoa Mint Chill (Formerly Peppermint Cocoa) from Tiesta Tea
Style: Flavored Rooibos – Region: Blend76 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Dec. 25th, 2020
Prep: 3tsp, 16oz, 200F, 5min
Aroma: Peppermint bomb. Can’t really pick up anything but a ton of peppermint. For the season, that’s A-ok in my book. 8/10
Flavor: Still a ton of peppermint but the chocolate notes fill in nicely. I don’t usually find much flavor from Rooibos and this is no exception. 7/10

Dec. 25th, 2020
Prep: 200F, 5min, 3tsp, 16oz
Aroma: Primarily malty black tea notes but not overly pungent. There is a touch of cocoa and coffee as well. 7/10
Flavor: This is a really nice blend for someone who loves coffee but would like to try tea. There is a very light coffee overtone, a touch of chocolate, not too sweet. ...
Nutty Almond Cream from Tiesta Tea
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: Blend75 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 5/5
Dec. 11th, 2020
After reviewing David’s tea forever nuts the other day, this seems like a worthy competitor.
Appearance: A nice pale reddish color with oil spots at the top of the liquid.
Aroma: The aroma in the tin was truly exceptional. Smelled like a almond cookie. In the cup, there is still a cinnamon oatmeal cookie vibe...
Chai Love from Tiesta Tea
Style: Chai / Spiced Tea – Region: Blend70 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Dec. 11th, 2020
Appearance: Fairly saturated reddish brown. Looks pretty much the part of chai.
Aroma: Here is my conundrum. The tea smells so spicy and aromatic in the tin but the liquid is more of a black tea, malty presence with some mild cardamom.
Taste: This is a solid chai tea. It has really good malty notes but I’d l...
Blueberry Wild Child from Tiesta Tea
Style: Fruit (Herbal) Tea – Region: Blend86 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Dec. 10th, 2020
This is the best bargain that I’ve found in tea. 5.5 ounces for 10 dollars with shipping.
Appearance: This is deep red. If you didn’t know it was hibiscus before you bought it, you do now!
Aroma: I didn’t even think that I liked blueberries much in life. This smells like a fruit smoothie.
Flavor: very...
Fireberry from Tiesta Tea
Style: Fruit (Herbal) Tea – Region: Blend75 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Dec. 9th, 2020
Prep: 1.5 tsp per 8 ounces, hot.
Appearance: deep ruby
Aroma: it’s all cranberry and hibiscus. Aroma leads to the tart side.
Flavor: lightly tart cranberry but a fairly floral overall profile. Body is medium plus and may benefit from a little sweetener.
Value: 10 bucks for 5 ounces feels like a nice value to me...
Chai Love from Tiesta Tea
Style: Chai / Spiced Tea – Region: Blend74 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Jun. 13th, 2019
I love chai, so I tried Chai Love. It was one of the least chai-like of chais I've had, but yet, still strangely satisfying and tasty. It also had perhaps the greatest aromatic discrepancy I've encountered between dry-leaf, in-cup and wet-leaf scents.
The dry leaf is the most truly chai-like sensation (smell or t...

I love this fruity blend from Tiesta. It’s flavorful and easy to drink without any added sweetness. Wonderful both hot and iced. It’s a favorite.

Fruity Pebbles from Tiesta Tea
Style: Fruit Green Tea – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Dec. 20th, 2014
This is a very nice fruity green tea; very smooth, not bitter or artificial tasting. The leaves were good for 3 steeps, with decreasing fruitiness but still a nice green tea flavour.

I’m kind of glad I caved to Tiesta’s 50% off Black Friday sale, because now I have a bunch of fruity tisanes to drink in the evening when I want something caffeine-free. (You should have been here when I opened the bubble envelope and it was like a crazy blast of fruity scents! Even with all the teas sealed in ...
Nutty Almond Cream from Tiesta Tea
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Oct. 17th, 2014
Mmmm, the smell of this dry tea is amazing, kind of like a really cinnamony oatmeal cookie. With almonds. Brewed, more of the apple comes out, and it starts to smell like apple pie in a cup. If you add milk and sugar, it actually tastes like apple pie in a cup. :) Without, it's just a really lovely apple and cinnamon ...

Citrus Sunburst from Tiesta Tea
Style: Fruit (Herbal) Tea – Region: Blend67 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jul. 31st, 2014
This tea is full of dried fruit chunks, and the smell of the dry tea is very bright and intensely fruity. Once steeped, the tea is a gorgeous red colour (I presume from the hibiscus), and the smell is citrusy. With tasting, the hibiscus flavour really comes out, balanced with the citrus/fruit flavours. The whole thing ...

May. 19th, 2014
Thanks to Alex for this sample!
I made this as a dessert tea tonight and was really impressed by the flavor. Unsweetened, this was very good. The scent is also excellent and I felt like I was in a bakery when brewing this tea.
I added a little rock sugar, maybe a tsp or so, and then the flavors really came ali...
Nutty Almond Cream from Tiesta Tea
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: Blend87 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Dec. 27th, 2012
I happened to come across this tea while shopping for a friend who is a tea fanatic. I, personally, have never been much of a fan of tea but after nosing around the tin I figured what the heck and gave it a shot.
I love this tea. It's delicious and nutty and really, really smooth. I don't even have to sweeten it to...
Nutty Almond Cream from Tiesta Tea
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: Blend53 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Feb. 2nd, 2012
Completely unlike any other herbal tea I've tried. Not my type of blend, but very high-quality for what it is, and I can imagine others might love it.
Brews a bright red, semi-opaque cup with oil droplets on top. Aroma suggestive of a jam-filled pastry: nutty, bready, suggestive of sweetness and cooked apples. Fl...
Creme au Chocolat from Tiesta Tea
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Nov. 28th, 2011
This tea is so good! It tastes smooth and sweet. The flavor of the tea is a little weak, though. I added cream and sugar.

Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend37 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 1/5
Nov. 1st, 2011
Aroma of the dry leaf suggests a syrupy-sweet chocolate...it makes me wonder if the chocolate chips used also contain liberal amounts of vanilla or some other flavoring. There even seems to be a hint of candied cherry in the aroma. I can't smell the base tea. Not much true chocolate / cocoa in the aroma.
Upon bre...
