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 ...

Nutty Almond Cream from Tiesta Tea
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: Blend83 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
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...
