Chamomile (Sachet) from Harney and Sons
Style: Pure Chamomile Tea – Region: Egypt30 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 1/5 Value: 2/5
Jan. 3rd, 2021
The only other reviews so far give it 90 and a 100 points, so it looks like this is a contrasting view. I found it to be both a little bitter and bland, without much floral flavor or aroma. I got a sachet of this as a freebie with another order, so they may have been giving away some out-of-date product.

The aroma is very floral but it does not smell artificial like perfume or soap. It also smells somewhat musty but I actually really like that! The taste is amazing, it’s extremely smooth, there is no astringency or bitterness at all! This tea is very full bodied and thick and relaxing to drink. It tastes very floral ...

This is an excellent chamomile tea that is full of flavor and quite relaxing. The only thing I can knock it for right off the bat is that, from what I've read, the loose tea is significantly better. I'll be testing that out shortly!

Served in Brewed Awakenings coffee shop in Newark, DE.
This chamomile in a humble, flat teabag impressed me with its clean, crisp flavor and bright, fresh aroma. More floral than most chamomile, also fruity, suggesting apple. There is a noticeable absence of the typical bitter aftertaste as well, although the finish...
Classic Mint (Egyptian Mint Herb Tea) from Novus Tea
Style: Peppermint Tea – Region: Egypt50 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 2/5
Apr. 2nd, 2017
I agree 100% with Alex. I had this at a restaurant - and it is a mid-to-strong peppermint without being too strong/sharp. Not a candy-cane tea - might even have spearmint in there too? Can't tell.
Nope. Just checked the Bigelow website - it's 100% peppermint, which, indded, you can grow yourself. Cheaply.
Chamomile Egyptian Golden Sun Presented by Wolfgang Puck from Numi Organic Tea

Jan. 1st, 2017
I obtained this product, with what may be the longest name I've seen for a tea, from a hotel room. For now it appears to be available just as a food-service product. As chamomile teas go, this is decidedly above average--smooth, sweet, rich in flavor, deep-golden in color, and a nice concoction to close the day. No ...

Wow, well, either chamomile is growing on me, or I've finally learned how to brew it. This one has a very strong (but not bitter) flavor. I heated up the water for one minute in a microwave before adding the sachet, and (based on the reviews below) kept the steep time shorter than normal. Once it looked sufficiently go...

Although the only loose leaf versions of Chamomile I've tried, this variety seems to be very good. The flowers are all whole and very few are crushed. The steeped tea has a wonderful fruity aroma and a very smooth taste. It reminds me of honey. Very good, especially at night!

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...

slightly musty fennel seed smell...touch of black licorice...taste is licorice off the bat but smooths out fast...very mild flavor even with long end of the steeping time...super cheap price...decent but nothing special

So far my experience of trying chamomile teas over the years has not been overly positive. While great mixed into some of my favorite blends, my description of it on its own was largely "dishwatery".
After trying a sachet of Harney and Sons Chamomile tisane with my last order, I absolutely LOVED it. It's a bit pric...
Chamomile from Two Leaves and a Bud
Style: Pure Chamomile Tea – Region: Egypt30 / 100 Aroma: 2/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 1/5
Jan. 28th, 2013
First off, let me just say that I really do like most of the teas that I've tried from Two Leaves and a Bud. In fact, their Jasmine Petal Tea and African Sunset are two of my favorite bagged teas!
Second off, there is this tea.... this tea was blech. Just plain blech. My apologies to anyone who enjoyed it, but ...
Classic Mint (Egyptian Mint Herb Tea) from Novus Tea
Style: Peppermint Tea – Region: Egypt50 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 2/5
Mar. 2nd, 2012
Very fresh, crisp peppermint aroma. Clean but without being flat. Little of the complex herbaceous aroma that I like though, in peppermint. Strong but without being candy-like.
I tried this mainly to try it, peppermint grows out of control in this climate and I'm never short of it...so I wouldn't buy this (or any...
Chamomile Citrus from Mighty Leaf Tea
Style: Chamomile Blend – Region: Egypt47 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 3/5
Dec. 21st, 2011
I did not care for the flavor of this tea. Although it contains orange flavors from flowers and orange peel, I tasted none, just a bad lemon flavor that doesn't even resemble real lemon juice.
The tea does work well for calming frayed nerves, but for me, is not a palate pleaser. I like the silk bags and unbleached...
Chamomile from Adagio Teas

This is a classic chamomile, moderately fruity, but not the fruitiest I've tried. I steeped it for a very long time, but it did not become unpleasantly bitter, which is good. The differences between different batches of chamomile I've had are subtle, but I think this is among the better ones.
Sweeter and smoother ...

Yummy; fresh tasting. I was happily distracted by the fact that there are whole flowers in the teabag.

It was good, but not much different from other chamomile teas I've had.

Delightful, full flavor without being overwhelmingly strong. My favorite chamomile tea thus far!

Less fruity and a little more grass or straw in the aroma when compared to other chamomile teas. A tiny bit of sourness in the aftertaste, but otherwise clean and fresh tasting. Definitely one of the better chamomile teas I've tried. Full-bodied and rich.
A bit on the expensive side, but not too unreasonable give...

Yum. I've gotten into the habit of having chamomile tea late at night to relax, and love the flavor, the aroma, everything!
