Green Tea Tropical from Mighty Leaf Tea
Style: Flavored Green Tea – Region: Blend68 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Sep. 21st, 2022
As customary for Mighty Leaf packaging, this blend comes in a sachet sewn on three sides with cotton threads, which then extend out to the string and the paper tag. Within the sachet, one easily can see the chopped green tea—mostly leaf pieces, but a few stems—and several assorted dried flower pieces that presumab...

Bombay Chai from Mighty Leaf Tea
Style: Chai / Spiced Tea – Region: ?????61 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 2/5
Jan. 30th, 2020
I love chai overall, so they tend to skew high in my ratings unless they either simply suck, or as in this case, are "just" decent while being overpriced. [Though I was served a couple bags of this tea at a Corner Bakery outlet, I based "value" on the online pricing.] My version came in a rectangular sachet sewn on t...

Organic Breakfast from Mighty Leaf Tea
Style: English Breakfast – Region: Blend55 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 2/5
Sep. 2nd, 2017
I've recently started looking for Fair Trade Certified teas, so I decided to try a box of Mighty Leaf tea.
My first impression is that the tea is lower quality than the packaging and price would indicate. The box says that the sachets contain "whole leaf tea," but the tea in the sachets is in quite small pieces, not...
Organic Darjeeling Kalimpong from Mighty Leaf Tea
Style: Darjeeling Second Flush – Region: Darjeeling, India78 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
May. 22nd, 2017
I thought this was an excellent second flush Darjeeling, with a fresher and cooler aroma than average, and surprising strength that allowed the leaf to stretch very far. A tea that I like to savor very slowly, not something for if you're in a hurry.
Thank you to Mighty Leaf for this generous sample!
I love the s...
Organic Karigane from Mighty Leaf Tea
Style: Kukicha – Region: Japan76 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
May. 13th, 2017
Thank you to Mighty Leaf for this sample! Overall I haven't been as impressed with the green teas from Mighty Leaf as the black ones, but I like this one a bit more. This was a very atypical example of a kukicha / twig tea, much more full-flavored than I expected.
I was intrigued by how the leaf smells...it smells...
Organic Sencha from Mighty Leaf Tea
Style: Sencha – Region: Japan58 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 2/5
May. 11th, 2017
Thank you mighty leaf for this sample! This tea had a very pleasant flavor but was nearly aromaless, although what aroma it did have was nice.
Dry leaf initially doesn't smell great, but when I breathe in more deeply, there's a very pleasant smell that suggests sweetness. The leaf looks fairly large and also rathe...
Assam Extra Fancy from Mighty Leaf Tea
Style: Assam – Region: Assam, India89 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
May. 9th, 2017
Thanks again to Mighty Leaf for this sample! Like the other Assam from mighty leaf, I liked this tea from the first sip, but it also grew on me substantially. Another classic Assam, this one of higher grade. It was good the first few times I brewed it, but I found it really shined when I gave it a long steep.
Thi...
Ceylon Kenilworth from Mighty Leaf Tea
Style: Ceylon Black Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon82 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
May. 1st, 2017
Thank you to mighty leaf for the sample! This tea is dark, strong, smoky, and complex. It's like one of those software packages that is really intimidating and hard to learn, but powerful once you get comfortable with it. I found it grew on me and I liked it more each time I drank it.
Wiry leaf smells punch-you-i...
Organic African Nectar from Mighty Leaf Tea
Style: Flavored Rooibos – Region: Blend79 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Apr. 30th, 2017
I drink a fair amount of this, it's probably the Mighty Leaf tea that I drink most often because I tend to visit a cafe that serves their teas in the evening, and it's by far my favorite of their caffeine-free herbal teas.
I sometimes compare it to the African Sunset which is sold by Two Leaves Tea, similarly a flav...
Assam Golden Tip from Mighty Leaf Tea
Style: Assam – Region: Assam, India88 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Apr. 22nd, 2017
I loved this one. My favorite mighty leaf tea yet, and an excellent example of a classic Assam.
Thank you Mighty Leaf for this generous sample! I thought this was a pleasantly strong Assam, exactly what I expect from this style and a good example of such. There is something intangible about this tea that makes it...
Irish Breakfast from Mighty Leaf Tea
Style: Irish Breakfast – Region: Assam, India61 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 2/5
Apr. 18th, 2017
This was a free sample from Mighty Leaf; thanks very much! So far this is the most disappointing tea I've tried from the batch so I wanted to get my review out of the way and move on to the others. I thought this was too thin for an Irish Breakfast, oddly muted; it tasted like something was missing, both in terms of...

Wild Berry Hibiscus from Mighty Leaf Tea
Style: Fruit (Herbal) Tea – Region: Blend67 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Feb. 22nd, 2017
Served at De La Coeur Cafe in Wilmington, DE (I love that place by the way, please do check it out if you're ever there).
I normally don't like hibiscus blends (think Celestial Seasonings' Red Zinger) because they are too sour for me, but I enjoyed this one. I brewed it in a big fat mug and only steeped it around 3...
Organic Green Dragon from Mighty Leaf Tea
Style: Dragon Well (Long Jing) – Region: China67 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 2/5
Jan. 17th, 2017
I was eager to try this because it was the only pure green tea in tea bags sold by Mighty Leaf, other than their hojicha which is roasted and does not taste at all like a green tea.
I wasn't crazy about this tea; if I had to divide all dragon wells into "good dragonwell" vs. "bad dragonwell" this one almost falls be...
Organic African Nectar from Mighty Leaf Tea
Style: Flavored Rooibos – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Nov. 12th, 2016
This is quite close to Murchie's "Cozy Caramel Rooibos" for the tastiest African redbush tea I've had so far. I got this earlier today from a kiosk in the Portland airport, where the clerk dropped two decent-sized sachets of this in a large cup for me. Never even heard of it before...

Organic African Nectar from Mighty Leaf Tea
Style: Flavored Rooibos – Region: Blend57 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 4/5
Nov. 23rd, 2015
Firstly, let me preface this by saying that I HATE Roiboos. But for a roiboos-based blend this one is tolerable (so most people I bet will like it). Smells very sweet - and has a vanilla taste to it that makes it palatable.
I had this at an event and would never purchase a box. Blargh!
White Orchard from Mighty Leaf Tea
Style: Miscellaneous Blend – Region: China67 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 2/5
Oct. 16th, 2015
Overpriced, but quite tasty. I'm enjoying this more than I do many flavored white teas. I can detect the tea without a problem, in contrast to the previous reviewers who felt the fruitiness to be overpowering. It held up to a second steeping well, though dust collected at the bottom of the cup.

Organic Darjeeling Estate from Mighty Leaf Tea
Style: Darjeeling Black Tea – Region: Darjeeling, India83 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Oct. 8th, 2015
This was my favorite Darjeeling from a tea bag yet.
The dry leaf of this tea, in the bag, smells amazing, even though it appears rather finely broken. There are sweet fruity notes, a hint of spice (caraway?) and some other qualities that I find distinctive but hard to describe.
Brews up a cup that is initially s...
Organic Mint Melange from Mighty Leaf Tea
Style: Mint Tea – Region: Morocco80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Oct. 6th, 2015
A very smooth, yet somewhat complex mint that struck me as all or mostly spearmint, although Mighty Leaf doesn't specify exactly what mint is used.
I'm a tough customer when it comes to mint teas; I've grown dozens of different types of mint in my gardens, and spent years carefully blending them. Most commercially ...
Vanilla Bean from Mighty Leaf Tea
Style: Vanilla Black Tea – Region: Blend73 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Aug. 4th, 2015
This tea was surprisingly good and I think was one of the best flavored teas that I've tried yet from Mighty Leaf, definitely my favorite black tea of theirs too. Served in Central Perk Coffee Shop in Newark, DE.
The base tea has a strong warming quality and is rich and aromatic. On the website, I see they list te...
Green Tea Tropical from Mighty Leaf Tea
Style: Flavored Green Tea – Region: Blend77 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
May. 5th, 2015
A few years back my wife was in the hospital for a 12 days stretch, and I was there with her to watch and wait. I didn't have a lot of creature comforts at that time, but I did have some matches of Green Tea Tropical. Without a way to get hot water (I wasn't one to ask for things or venture far from the room at the tim...

Organic African Nectar from Mighty Leaf Tea
Style: Flavored Rooibos – Region: Blend70 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
May. 1st, 2015
This is one of my go-to rooibos blends when I need to take a teabag with me somewhere. I have always enjoyed rooibos on its own, but this blend adds a nice fruity flavor that rounds out the rooibos quite well. This also makes a superb iced tea and a great intro to the world of rooibos.

Chamomile Citrus from Mighty Leaf Tea
Style: Chamomile Blend – Region: Egypt67 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Oct. 18th, 2014
The scent of the dry tea is intense lemon! and orange! and then some faint chamomile in the background. Brewed, the scent mellows out considerably to a more generic citrus, and I can detect the lemongrass and maybe a hint of the mint. The taste is also quite citrusy, a bit tart (but in a good way – maybe that’s the...

Organic Himalayan Peak Darjeeling from Mighty Leaf Tea
Style: Darjeeling Black Tea – Region: Darjeeling, India73 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Oct. 5th, 2014
This was a good Darjeeling. Subtly flavored with no bitterness. I thought this was a high quality tea for being bagged. The price was typical for a cafe, I've heard that boxes of this tea can be pricey.

Coco Chai Rooibos from Mighty Leaf Tea
Style: Flavored Rooibos – Region: Blend60 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
May. 16th, 2014
This tea is ok. Not amazing, but definitely a good choice for a caffeine free chai, if you're into chai, but not into caffeine.
