G'day Mate from SerendipiTea
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: ?????75 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jun. 5th, 2022
This is a pretty straightforward blend of organic (& kosher) yerba mate, peppermint, and lemon myrtle. The tea is named after the famous Australian way of saying hello, but I don't know what connection exists between this tea and that Pacific nation. It is probably just a reference to the yerba mate. The lemony, herb...

Style: Chai / Spiced Tea – Region: India90 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
May. 13th, 2022
Like a lot of SerendipiTea's products, this is both organic and kosher. The recipe is straightforward: black tea, ginger, cinnamon, anise, cloves, and cinnamon. Prepared the traditional way (which I learned how to do during a visit to India), this makes a well-balanced, flavorful, and pleasantly sweet and spicy chai. ...

Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: India70 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
May. 12th, 2022
This is an Indian black tea flavored with organic coconut, organic marigold/calendula, and coconut and mango flavoring - so it is very tropical in character. It was quite nice with milk and sugar, or with just sugar, sort of dessert like. I bet it would be good on ice as well.

Style: Herbal Tea – Region: ?????80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
May. 11th, 2022
This is a straightforward blend of two organic herbs - lemon myrtle and mint. Overall the results are quite nice, even if the myrtle bosses around the mint (which I think is spearmint rather than peppermint - how many mints are there to choose from anyway?) I have this with a little sugar, and have not yet tried it o...

Style: Rooibos Chai / Spiced Rooibos – Region: ?????80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
May. 7th, 2022
This mostly organic tisane is a mix of rooibos, cocoa, and coconut, along with a little vanilla cream flavoring. The aroma is mostly vanilla cream, with a little fresh grain. The flavor is a very nice blend of cocoa, coconut, and vanilla along with mellow rooibos. I take it with plant milk and sugar. Another very nic...

Style: Flavored Green Tea – Region: China80 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
May. 6th, 2022
An almost all-organic green tea-tisane blend, with Chinese green tea, apple, hibiscus, rosehip, strawberry, and strawberry flavoring. It has a very pleasant aroma and is offered at a good price. I like SerendipiTea's collection of flavored teas. In this, the apple and strawberry come through clearly, and the hibiscus...

Style: Chamomile Blend – Region: Blend75 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
May. 30th, 2020
Here is a nice organic tisane, made predominantly with chamomile and bolstered with some fruits, rose hips, and hibiscus. So it tastes mostly of chamomile, but with a steely, acidic undertone. The aroma is fairly strong and floral. The price is a little high, but I guess that is due to the organic ingredients. This ...

Feb. 19th, 2020
This is an organic fruit and spice tisane that is made with apricot, apple, raspberry, orange peel, spearmint, hibiscus, turmeric, black pepper, and rosehips, plus some (organic) apple, raspberry, and orange flavoring. So quite a blend! It is not a typical tart and fruity hibiscus plus fruit flavor mix. The apricot ...

Style: Herbal Tea – Region: ?????75 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 17th, 2020
This is an interesting blend of spices that is designed to be infused with milk. I make mine with non-dairy milk, and that may have affected the flavor some. The result is a very hot and spicy tea. Black pepper and chili pepper are the 2 main ingredients, bolstered by some ginger, coconut, cinnamon, and turmeric. I...

Style: Herbal Tea – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 14th, 2020
This is a simple but charming tisane, made entirely of organic ginger, lemongrass, and orange peel. It is naturally very sweet, and even a teaspoon of honey or sugar makes it taste very sugary. The lemongrass dominates, with the orange and ginger playing supporting roles. I have to take a couple of points off for th...

Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: Blend85 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Jan. 20th, 2019
Another in Serendipitea's line-up of flavorful fruit tisanes. This one is more expensive than the other 2 I tried, and I'm not sure why, since it follows the same pattern of ingredients (apple, hibiscus, rose hips, fruit, and natural flavor.) This has some orange peel and licorice root, which could account for the co...

Jan. 20th, 2019
A fine fruit tisane - organic and kosher, with a strong taste of raspberry that does not taste entirely natural (some natural flavoring is added.)

Jan. 20th, 2019
Very fruity and flavorful. Made from dried apple, hibiscus, rose hips, strawberry and natural strawberry flavoring. Thanks to my brother and his wife - this is the tea that turned me on to Serendipitea's flavorful, reasonably priced tisanes.

Style: Jasmine Tea – Region: ?????63 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Aug. 28th, 2014
The aroma of this tea is quite unique, a blend of heady jasmine and earthy pu-erh. It is like a blend of blooming flowers and a garden after rain, it has that mineral and wet earth aroma. This tea smells like laying on one's back in a summer garden, a very interesting concept.
The taste if this tea is certainly inte...
Cocoa Power from SerendipiTea
Style: Miscellaneous Blend – Region: Blend77 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Aug. 18th, 2014
The aroma is a great blend of earthy pu-erh, woody sweet rooibos, vanilla sweetness, and loads of chocolate. It is a blend of sweet chocolate candy and rich cocoa powder, mixing the sweet and bittersweet aspects of chocolate. I am glad that it is sweet, but not cloyingly so.
This tea is a cup of cocoa decadence, tha...
Fellini's Folly from SerendipiTea
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: Blend77 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Aug. 13th, 2014
The aroma is quite strong, a potent chill of mint, sweet woodiness, a touch of licorice, a touch of anise, and a finish of raisins. It manages to be cooling and warming at the same time, an interesting contradiction.
Tasting this tea is quite interesting! It starts off with a cooling sensation from the mint that coo...
Really Goethe from SerendipiTea
Style: Flavored Green Tea – Region: Blend77 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Aug. 5th, 2014
The aroma is very floral and refreshing, with notes of heady roses and jasmine and a strong citrus note from the lemon myrtle. There are hints of honey sweetness and fresh vegetation as well.
Tasting the tea, it is quite delicate and refreshing, it blends the taste of fresh herbs and vegetation, floral notes and a b...
Chocolate A-Peel from SerendipiTea
Style: Miscellaneous Blend – Region: Blend83 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Aug. 1st, 2014
The aroma of this particular dessert tea is pretty rich, with strong notes of woody rooibos, creamy cocoa with almost a chocolate liqueur tinge to it, a bit of caramel, a bit of apple, and lastly a potent zing of oranges. It is very sweet and rich, but not too sweet, very much so the difference between a yummy slice of...

Style: Amber Oolong – Region: Taiwan / Formosa83 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jul. 30th, 2014
The aroma of the little curled leaves is toasty and tasty! It is a blend of toasted sesame stems and tobacco with a touch of freshly broken green stems and a finish of coal. The aroma is more savory than sweet, reminding me of autumn fires at the end of a day.
This is a smooth tea in mouthfeel but slightly sharp in...
The Big Sleep from SerendipiTea
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: Blend83 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Jul. 25th, 2014
The aroma of the dry leaves is pretty interesting, a blend of herbaceous and spice notes with a touch of sweet vanilla, nutty coconut, woody honeybush, and a hint of fruity tartness at the finish. It is quite unlike any blend I have sniffed before, I especially like how well the anise and coconut compliment each other...

Oct. 18th, 2012
SerendipiTea’s Rose Alongi is a blend of organic Chinese green tea and rose petals. The tea leaves on their own smell grassy. After it’s brewed, the tea smells like fresh roses with a definite (and pleasant) undercurrent of green tea.
This is a smooth and slightly sweet tea. It’s light-bodied and leaves a wond...
City Harvest Green from SerendipiTea
Style: Miscellaneous Blend – Region: Blend73 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Apr. 24th, 2012
I found this one interesting as it is a Jasmine-scented tea that also contains other ingredients and flavorings, but also because it contains two different base teas.
I tend not to like blends like this, but I found this one to be relatively well-executed. The overall character is mainly of Jasmine: the Jasmine is ...
Strictly Strawberry from SerendipiTea
Style: Fruit (Herbal) Tea – Region: Blend63 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Dec. 1st, 2011
Intensely fruity, very strong strawberry aroma. Tangy but not overwhelmingly so. This blend does contain hibiscus, presumably to make it sour and impart a red color, and I find some of these fruit blends overdo it on the hibiscus, but the amount in this one is good.
This is not my favorite style of herbal tea, but...
Bucaneer from SerendipiTea
Style: Miscellaneous Blend – Region: Blend53 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Nov. 14th, 2011
I tend not to like blends of herbs and tea including coconut, as coconut is generally not a smell or flavor I associate with tea drinking.
I found the different aromas in this blend to blend very well, however. It was creamy and sweet, yet somewhat balanced.
This is certainly not the sort of thing I would buy on...
Moulin Rouge Chai from SerendipiTea

Sep. 18th, 2011
This tea is awesome. It has a wonderful smoky flavor that blends perfectly with the vanilla and dominant clove flavor. It's the best chai I've tasted yet. I added cream and sugar.
