Masala Chai from FashionistaTea
Style: Chai / Spiced Tea – Region: Blend70 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Oct. 30th, 2014
The aroma from my little pile of CTC leaves and spices is sweet, spicy, and malty! There is a strong ginger note, a moderately strong note of cardamon, and lastly a mellow note of malt and a finish of cinnamon.
This is a very mellow Chai, taken traditionally with milk (ok I use Half & Half since I love creaminess) ...
Organic Green Pomegranate from FashionistaTea
Style: Fruit Green Tea – Region: ?????77 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Oct. 17th, 2014
The aroma of the dry leaves (and fruity bits) is quite delicious, it has that tart sweet smell of fresh raspberries and pomegranates with a slight hint of rose hips and a gentle finishing note of slightly grassy green. It has a very fresh scent, reminding me of late spring.
Oooh, the taste is so mellow, which is qui...
Organic Fashionista Blend from FashionistaTea
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Oct. 2nd, 2014
The aroma is creamy sweet and floral, with notes of vanilla and cocoa, with roses, lavender, and a hint of oranges and malt. It is super rich and sweet, bordering on decadent.
It starts out with vanilla and roses, then moves to lavender and chocolate, with a finish of brisk oak wood and oranges. None of the notes c...
Basic Black from FashionistaTea
Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend67 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5

I thought this tea was pretty good. It didn't wow me, and I didn't pick up many nuances in aroma or flavor, but I didn't hate it. It seemed to match the name pretty well: Basic Black.
I have enough left for one cup, so I think I'll try it again with a little sugar and almond milk, just to see if the character c...
Basic Black from FashionistaTea
Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend73 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Dec. 15th, 2013
This tea brews really quickly. The first time I tried it I brewed it too long - 4-5 minutes. I tried 3 minutes and it turned out well. I like it. It's interesting. Kind of fruity, but not too much. It has a rich, crisp flavor. It's a little more bitter than I would ideally like. I added cream and sugar.

Dec. 2nd, 2013
This was a unique tea, somewhat subtle and subdued, and a bit of an acquired taste. I found that it had great complexity and grew on me. According to FashionistaTea, it's a blend of Nilgiri and Yunnan, and the Yunnan character is definitely evident--I don't know as much about Nilgiri teas to identify any flavor chara...
