Green Tea with Mint from Bigelow Tea
Style: Green Tea with Mint – Region: ?????40 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 2/5
Mar. 19th, 2019
The green tea smells stronger than it tastes. There's nothing offensive about it, but neither is it satisfying. I rather suspect that Bigelow's green teas are blended for those that drink green tea for purported health benefits rather than the flavor. It's mild and not bitter, but it lacks any brightness or vegetal com...

Sweet Dreams Herbal Tea from Bigelow Tea
Style: Chamomile Blend – Region: ?????53 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Mar. 14th, 2019
I've had a few knockoffs of this lately, so I figured I'd review the real thing. Sweet Dreams is basically chamomile tea for people that don't like chamomile. When dry, the dominant aroma is spearmint. After steeping, it's a subdued mintiness with a bit of cinnamon and citrus.
The flavor complements the aroma and se...
Organic Green Tea with Pomegranate & Acai from Bigelow Tea
Style: Fruit Green Tea – Region: Blend75 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Mar. 4th, 2019
Super-fruity wit a hint of acid - very nice over ice and OK hot, too. (Add sweetener if you wish but I don;t think it needs it - so go easy on the honey/sugar).
A nice change of pace it winter for hot or summer for iced fruity-green bagged tea. Inexpensive and convenient.
Steep Pure Green Tea from Bigelow Tea
Style: Green Tea – Region: ?????67 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Mar. 4th, 2019
A very good value for a bagged green (organic). Branding is "snazzier" than the traditional bagged bigelow teas. We have "Steep" in out office and it is a nice upgrade from el-cheapo Lipton.

French Vanilla Decaffeinated Black Tea from Bigelow Tea
Style: Vanilla Black Tea – Region: ?????61 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Feb. 19th, 2019
I don't see a point in proactively obtaining this tea, especially for money. Here's another offering I got at no cost (the best way), thanks to its being available in a tea box at a meeting, at a Holiday Inn Express. I'll rate "value" based on the prices I usually see for Bigelow teas in-store.
The best part of ...
Organic Pure Green Tea (Premium Green Tea Organic) from Bigelow Tea
Style: Green Tea – Region: ?????61 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 1st, 2019
This tea somewhat flummoxed me from before I poured the first drop down my esophagus, to the last aftertaste. For starters, what is it? There's no "Premium Green Tea" available on Bigelow's main website, just something called "Green Tea (Certified Organic)". Then on RateTea, there already was an "Organic Pure Green ...

Constant Comment® from Bigelow Tea
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: ?????70 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jan. 24th, 2019
"This tea. This tea is good... good for me." ...a tune my grandfather used to sing when he'd take his first sip of this tea... Every time I would serve it to him as a kid, he would sing it. It brought joy to my young ears. Oh my, this brings many a tear to my eye. I would ALWAYS comment in response, "Grandpa, shut up! ...

It's okay! I just wish... I just wish it wasn't a Chamomile tea! Ya see, I don't like Chamomile! It's just not for me!

Lemon Lift Black Tea from Bigelow Tea
Style: Lemon Black Tea – Region: ?????65 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jan. 24th, 2019
This tea is good! I was a little over-hyped for it... It's one of the best lemon flavor tea's I've had, but I have never had a great one, personally. As with most fruit flavored tea's I've tried: MORE TEA FLAVOR, LESS FRUIT FLAVOR (please).

Vanilla Chai Black Tea from Bigelow Tea

Jan. 24th, 2019
My favorite le Bigelow! Is quite FINE! I drink this stuff to get a good taste, what can I say... I love le Bigelow.... To get further into description: The flavors are well balanced. Good balance between Chai & Vanilla flavors, and it has a quality Chai flavor, let me tell you... I recommend this. To one, and to all.

Mint Medley® Herbal Tea from Bigelow Tea
Style: Mint Tea – Region: ?????59 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Jan. 24th, 2019
I've been more impressed with most other mint teas I've chugged so far, including a couple of store brands. Still, Mint Medley is mediocre, not bad. Like most live-performance musical medleys, the sum is worse in quality than the individual parts.
The dry-bag and in-cup aromas were hardly there, while the wet bag...
Earl Grey from Bigelow Tea
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: Blend55 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 4/5
Jan. 16th, 2019
This was one of the few Earl grey brands I’ve tried that managed to disappoint me. Not much to say about the flavor or scent.

Steep Earl Grey Black Tea from Bigelow Tea
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: ?????80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Jan. 11th, 2019
The dry tea smells very strongly of bergamot and very much like Bigelow's regular Earl Grey.
The taste is much different than the regular Bigelow. Much more tea shines through the citrus. I suspect that the base tea is the Steep English Breakfast, which is a flavorful Sri Lankan/Ceylon tea with a mellow cocoa bitter...
Cranberry Apple Herbal Tea from Bigelow Tea
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: Blend62 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Jan. 10th, 2019
The smell of the dry tea bag is, per the name, cranberry and apple. The flavor of the tea is quite different, though, being predominantly hibiscus and rose hips. After the initial tart rush, the apple comes out. It tastes quite nice, like the apple peel flavor of freeze-dried apple chips. If I try, I can taste a little...

Steep Chamomile Citrus Herbal Tea from Bigelow Tea
Style: Chamomile Blend – Region: Blend43 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 2/5
Jan. 10th, 2019
The dry tea smells like lemons and the first ingredient is lemongrass, so I was expecting a much more lemony flavor than I'm getting. The flavor is mostly chamomile with a sort of far-off whiff of lemon peel. I'm curious about the lemongrass because the flavor's normally more pronounced when it's an ingredient. It's al...

Darjeeling Black Tea from Bigelow Tea
Style: Darjeeling Black Tea – Region: Darjeeling, India68 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jan. 10th, 2019
The dry tea has the same basic smell of other blended Darjeelings. It's smells of dry leaves in autumn, a bit oaky and of raw pecans.
I tend to find Darjeeling teas to be somewhat more delicate than I'd prefer. This one is no exception, but I also wouldn't call it weak. It's lightly astringent with a very mild bitte...
Steep English Breakfast Fair Trade Certified Black Tea from Bigelow Tea
Style: English Breakfast – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon90 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Jan. 10th, 2019
Without beating around the bush, this is a really good Sri Lankan/Ceylon tea. This seems to be one of the few brands of bagged tea that selected Sri Lankan tea for its flavors rather than for simply being "mild". This tea is remarkably similar in flavor to Ahmad and Alwazah branded Ceylon teas that are available from M...

Steep Oolong & Jasmine Green Tea from Bigelow Tea
Style: Flavored Tea – Region: ?????77 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jan. 10th, 2019
This is really interesting tea and not at all what I was expecting. The dry bag of chopped, dark tea smells like an oolong with a medium oxidation and roast. I couldn't smell any jasmine until after I added water, and even then it's faint.
I really like the way this tea smells. There's a heavy note of toasted flour,...
Peppermint Herbal Tea from Bigelow Tea
Style: Peppermint Tea – Region: ?????75 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Jan. 9th, 2019
A really clean-tasting peppermint with a nice menthol finish. Slightly herbal, but no straw or hay flavors that lesser peppermint teas sometimes have.
Steep Pure Green Tea from Bigelow Tea
Style: Green Tea – Region: ?????50 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Jan. 9th, 2019
The flavor of this tea is quite mild, but pleasant. There's a nice bitterness on the sides of the tongue and just enough astringency to feel a bit "fuzzy". There's a hint of cabbage or broccoli flavor with a hint of spiciness. This tea's a bit sweeter than other green teas.
I'm tasting this tea alongside several oth...
Green Tea - Classic from Bigelow Tea
Style: Green Tea – Region: ?????30 / 100 Aroma: 3/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 2/5
Jan. 9th, 2019
I occasionally drink the decaffeinated version of this tea because it still tastes a bit like green tea. It turns out that that's exactly how the caffeinated version tastes—a bit like green tea. There's some vegetal freshness and a little grassy bitterness on the back of the tongue, but that's pretty much it. If you ...

Earl Grey Green Tea from Bigelow Tea
Style: Earl Grey Green Tea – Region: ?????30 / 100 Aroma: 3/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 2/5
Jan. 8th, 2019
After trying the green tea version of Constant Comment and liking it, I'm really disappointed in the green Earl Grey. The bergamot flavoring is much lighter than in Bigelow's black tea Earl Grey, presumably to let the flavor of the green tea through, such as it is. The very light flavor of the base tea coupled with les...

Constant Comment Green Tea from Bigelow Tea
Style: Flavored Green Tea – Region: ?????60 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Jan. 8th, 2019
As with the black tea version of Constant Comment, the dominant flavors are clove and orange peel. I'm tasting them both side-by-side at the moment and since Bigelow's green and black teas are both mild, the differences are subtle. The flavor of the green tea has a nice brightness and a faint hint of the grassy bittern...

Steep Lemon Ginger Herbal Tea from Bigelow Tea
Style: Herbal Tea – Region: ?????58 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Jan. 2nd, 2019
Even before steeping, the teabag smells pungently of ginger.
The flavor is intense. Spicy ginger and lemongrass are the initial punch and the finish is lime. Some of the spice might be from the cinnamon, but I don't otherwise taste any of the other ingredients.
Drinking this offers a similar flavor to licking fre...
Mint Medley® Herbal Tea from Bigelow Tea
Style: Mint Tea – Region: ?????55 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Dec. 12th, 2018
Both the dry and brewed tea smell almost like Wrigley's Doublemint gum with the balance a little more toward peppermint.
The taste is not what I was expecting. The tea is definitely minty, but as the ingredients include rose hips, lemon peel and hibiscus, I was expecting some fruitiness. Of the extra ingredients, I ...
