Berry Rooibos from Epi Tea
Style: Fruit Rooibos – Region: ?????60 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 2/5
Jan. 3rd, 2013
A pleasant, creamy and smooth berry-flavored herbal blend.
I thought this was a very balanced blend, but it was on the weak side. I think Epi Tea could get away with using about twice as much leaf.
Thankfully, this wasn't too sour. A lot of berry blends that go heavy on the hibiscus taste too sour to me. This ...
Irish Breakfast from Epi Tea
Style: Irish Breakfast – Region: Blend67 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 2/5
Aug. 17th, 2012
Tea bag has little aroma, but upon brewing the aroma really emerges...rich, malty, and complex.
Brews a very dark cup, very full-bodied and thick. Although this is among the most full-bodied teas I've sampled in quite a long time, and the aroma is powerful, the flavor is surprisingly weak, especially for this style...
Lavender Earl Grey from Epi Tea
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend67 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 2/5

Blood Orange Rooibos from Epi Tea
Style: Fruit Rooibos – Region: Blend60 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 2/5
Aug. 2nd, 2012
Blood Oranges are one of my two favorite fruits, and I was looking forward to this rooibos. Unfortunately, I don't really notice the distinction between this and a regular orange-flavored rooibos; the blood orange may be more a reference to the deep, blood-like color of the rooibos than to the flavoring.
Brewed as ...
Serene Chai from Epi Tea
Style: Chai / Spiced Tea – Region: Blend67 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 2/5
Jul. 25th, 2012
I had the opportunity to sample this tea before Epi Tea launched. Thank you, Kyle Ryan, for the samples!
This is a chai blend containing large pieces of broken-leaf orthodox tea, whole spices, and flavorings. Thankfully, the flavorings are subtle and are not overwhelming.
The instructions recommend me to brew t...
