Rooibos from The Tea Lab
Style: Rooibos – Region: South Africa67 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 4/5
Jun. 11th, 2015
The Tea Lab's rooibos is quite good. The dried leaves are wonderfully uniform in shape and color, and are a deep red. The aroma is not as strong as some, but still very sweet and earthy. The taste is exquisitely smooth without a bit of bitterness and focuses not as much on the vanilla undertones often found in rooibos ...

Style: Flavored Rooibos – Region: ?????77 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5

This is an excellent flavored rooibos. The name describes the emotions felt when drinking the tea quite well. The rooibos is blended with some citrus, but not very strong. Definitely a hint of orange, but not overwhelmingly so. Overall a very smooth and happy cup of tea that is perfect for a chilly night!

Style: Herbal Tea – Region: ?????87 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5

I have always been a fan of mint, but regular peppermint can sometimes be a bit strong. Spearmint, on the other hand, has a very smooth and even flavor.
This spearmint from The Tea Lab is great. The value is outstanding, currently being only 2.50 an ounce, and the quality seems to be just as good as anywhere else. I...
Darjeeling Makaibari from The Tea Lab
Style: Darjeeling Black Tea – Region: Darjeeling, India73 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Aug. 7th, 2014
My first Darjeeling, and quite good! I can't detect much (if any) of the bitterness I associate with black teas. It tastes like a *good quality* version of the tea used for sweet iced tea (and unsweetened tea) in the southern U.S. If I wanted to serve tea at a summer social gathering, I could imagine brewing up a stron...

Style: Oolong Tea – Region: Nilgiri, India67 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jul. 7th, 2014
Purchased from The Tea Lab in Lakewood, Ohio, for the reasonable price of $5 an ounce.
This is one of those rare teas that I was super enthusiastic to try. Oolongs were historically not produced in India, and it's even rarer to find one produced anywhere outside of Darjeeling. This is the first Indian-grown oolong...
Ceylon Ruhuna from The Tea Lab
Style: Ceylon Black Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon94 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Jul. 5th, 2014
A complex, versatile black tea of excellent quality that can be brewed to suit different tastes.
The dry leaf of this tea is very tightly rolled, almost like a gunpowder tea. In spite of this though, it's intensely aromatic, with a very pleasing aroma, fresh, fruity, light smelling, with tones of wintergreen and a ...
Darjeeling Makaibari from The Tea Lab
Style: Darjeeling Black Tea – Region: Darjeeling, India83 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Jul. 4th, 2014
A classic Darjeeling, a typical but great-quality example of this region's tea. Rich-colored but light-bodied and mild for a black tea, with a aroma that somehow manages to be both strong and delicate.
Initially sampled at the Tea Lab storefront in Lakewood, Ohio. I then purchased some (for a very reasonable price...
