Earl Greyer from Republic of Tea
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: ?????80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Jan. 20th, 2014
I just recently tried this tea at a coffee shop/cafe at a local mall. I thought the tea pouch looked rather tiny, so I had my doubts as to the strength when I filled my 16 oz. cup full of hot water. I was pleasantly surprised with the flavor after a five minute brew... it tasted wonderful! I would have to say that it...

Breakfast Blend (Morning Rise) from Numi Organic Tea
Style: Black Tea – Region: Blend27 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 1/5 Value: 1/5
Jan. 13th, 2014
Because I love both Numi teas and Breakfast Blends, I had high hopes for this one, but it turned out to be a big disappointment. Glad I didn't purchase a whole box of this, and opted for a sampler instead.
Not enough maltiness or depth. Edgy astringent notes were able to be rounded off with milk and a hint of hone...
Honeybush (Bushmen's Brew) from Numi Organic Tea
Style: Honeybush – Region: South Africa93 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Jan. 13th, 2014
I tried this one evening since it is a caffeine-free Numi option. It is not a true tea, but a tisane of a shrub variety related to rooibos. Now I really love rooibos, but this, to me, was even better, and I am definitely going to buy more, I liked it that much!
Here is a robust, comforting, and revitalizing liquor ...
Cardamon Pu-Erh from Numi Organic Tea
Style: Flavored Pu-erh – Region: Blend73 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jan. 13th, 2014
This was the first Pu-erh style tea I ever tried, and I selected it because I love the seductive, alluring, sweet smell of cardamom spice. Now, I had read about Pu-erhs and how they are strange and "earthy," but I didn't really know what that meant.
The moment I opened the box, the outstandingly powerful aromas im...
Chocolate Puerh - Black Tea Blend from Numi Organic Tea
Style: Flavored Pu-erh – Region: ?????83 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jan. 13th, 2014
Of the three pu-erhs we've tried by Numi (Chocolate, Cardamom, and Emperor's), this one was our favorite. Pu-erhs are earthy, reminiscent of a barnyard even, but this one has an appealing and definite festive aroma. Brings to mind eating warm gingerbread cookies in front of a toasty fire, or a busy bakery at Christmas ...

Aged Earl Grey™ - Bergamot Black from Numi Organic Tea
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: Assam, India100 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Jan. 13th, 2014
Numi Aged Earl Grey Assam- Now we're talkin' tea! Hands down, this is my all around absolute favorite tea. The moment you open a packet, the powerful, heady aroma of bergamot saturates the senses. It is noticeably fresh, not highly perfumed like most other offerings, for they use real Bergamot, not "natural flavorin...

Flowering Jasmine Teas (Fairy Lily) from Primula Tea
Style: Jasmine Tea – Region: China77 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jan. 12th, 2014
I have only one other Green Tea with Jasmine to compare this to, and that one is a teabag presentation by Numi. As far as flavor goes, Primula's Fairy Lily has a very different character. While Numi smacks you in the face with outstandingly fresh jasmine perfumes, this one has a soft, gentle, floral, potpourri fragra...
