Ciao Amaretto Tea from Mlesna Tea
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon42 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 1/5
Feb. 1st, 2026
Two things may factor into this rating, for full disclosure:
1. Not being a drinker of alcoholic beverages, I didn't know what "amaretto" was supposed to taste like, so I can't say how faithfully the tea replicates the flavor of the liqueur.
2. The tea comes from a light-colored, wooden gift box that's co-branded w...
English Earl Grey Black Tea from TeaVivre
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon85 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Jan. 22nd, 2026
Teavivre took a nice Ceylon black tea, added some bergamot oil, and then put it up for sale at a reasonable price. This is on the light and mellow side, with a good amount of bergamot flavor. Fruity and bright. I would say this as good a reasonably priced EG as can be found anywhere.

Vanilla Caramel Black Tea from Benner Tea Co
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend68 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jan. 19th, 2026
Vanilla Caramel Black Tea comes in holiday packs and advent calendars at ALDI, and is a decent drink for the price, as long as one oversteeps it according to conventional measures.
Upon ripping open the wrapper and sniffing within, the dry aroma was nearly nonexistent, with a faint hint of vanilla tea. This tempe...
Earl Grey Lavender from Benner Tea Co
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend67 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Dec. 29th, 2025
Interesting tea, a step up from their standard Earl Grey flavor-wise, but hardly any aroma in-cup and almost none in the dry bag. The net effect rendered a slightly lower rating, though if given a rigidly binary choice between the two, I'd take this.
Revolution's version of this, with the same name, is still my fa...
Island Coconut Tea from Mlesna Tea
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Sri Lanka / Ceylon63 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Dec. 26th, 2025
I got this tea in a gift box, made of lightweight wood, stamped with both Mlesna's and Metropolitan's branding, and containing a brick of 25 small teabags (about half the volume of Celestial, Murchie's or other similarly square to rectangular ones) wrapped in a single foil-colored plastic wrapper. Even after looking a...

Mango Ceylon from Republic of Tea
Style: Fruit Black Tea – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Dec. 23rd, 2025
As with most teas from RoT, they come in disc-shaped pouches with tea-holding compartments about 3/4 inch in radius from center. That ain't much space for tea, and doesn't allow a lot of room for inflation of the wet tea either. They come stacked like Pringles chips in a steel can that has a paper label pasted on. C...

Cinnamon Pear Green Tea from Benner Tea Co
Style: Flavored Green Tea – Region: Blend76 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Dec. 19th, 2025
If two words could describe this product, they are "unexpected complexity." As with the other recent Benner ratings, this one came from a 2025 holiday gift pack that apparently has a limited run, though some of these teas have appeared before and may again.
The dry-bag aroma was weak and mostly fruity (pear), but...
Hibiscus Honey Lemon from Hawaiian Islands Tea Company
Style: Flavored Green Tea – Region: Blend41 / 100 Aroma: 2/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Dec. 18th, 2025
A heaping helping of dread overcame me when I first ripped open the paper/foil wrapper and caught the whiff of...fruit-scented ammonia cleaner. OK, it didn't quite smell that intense directly; it was more like someone using fruit-scented ammonia to clean the hallway floor while you're in the classroom. Decidedly unfa...

Mandarin Ginger Green Tea from Benner Tea Co
Style: Flavored Green Tea – Region: Blend75 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Dec. 14th, 2025
Mandarin Ginger Green Tea is another product from this year's (2025) ribbon-wrapped holiday multipack, and may or may not return in the future. I hope it does. It's fairly good, especially at the price point of 12¢/bag. Note that this is not the same as Benner's Ginger Green Tea that is advertised on their website....

Chocolate Chai Black Tea from Benner Tea Co

Dec. 5th, 2025
This is my first from 6-tea holiday variety box purchased at ALDI. Based on the website "ALDI Reviewer," some of the teas have made seasonal appearances before, such as in Advent calendars containing teas and snacks. In case this is seen in time for 2025, they're brought back in future years, or you receive these tea...

Southern Blends: Watermelon and Honey Flavored Green Tea from Luzianne
Style: Flavored Green Tea – Region: Blend46 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 3/5
Oct. 12th, 2025
For a tea that seemed promising or at least interesting when spotted on a discount/clearance rack, I soon realized why it may have been cleared from inventory. First, the title of this tea is a little deceiving, because one of the two stated flavors doesn't even appear on the ingredients label, but instead, presumably...

Vanilla Chai Black Tea from Great Value
Style: Chai / Spiced Tea – Region: Blend56 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 4/5
Sep. 27th, 2025
I got some of this tea at a vacation cottage in Hawaii (yes, more Hawaiian teas coming soon..but this first!). I was not impressed at all. The tea smelled pretty nice in dry form, with a lot of vanilla and a little chai, but tasted extremely weak, so that I had to use two bags per cup to get much flavor. Even then, ...

Salted Caramel from Tea & Absinthe
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: ?????95 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Sep. 23rd, 2025
Excellent tea! I like this one a lot. Its flavor is pleasantly strong without feeling fake or overwhelming. It did not brew up bitter at all. I put the loose leaf into a basket in a Keurig-like device, as that’s what I currently use for brewing at work. I got two very nice steeps out of the sample size, so that helps...

Solid tea! The aroma is nice, the tea is tasty, and I enjoy the Alice in Wonderland theme. :-)

Style: Flavored White Tea – Region: ?????80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jul. 31st, 2025
Champs de lavande means fields of lavender in French. On the product page, Upton brags about how Yahoo Life named this their best tea of the year for 1925. And it is a good one, different from the usual, that is for sure. I tasted a lot more vanilla than lavender, and the floral, spicy notes combine well with the tanni...

Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: ?????70 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Jul. 6th, 2025
This is a pleasant, orange flavored tea. It is made in Germany, like a lot of Upton's flavored and herbal teas are, but I don't know what the base tea is or where it is from. Despite the name, it is not very sweet, and the orange flavoring is fairly low key. It contains some orange peel, and it does smell quite a bi...

Style: Jasmine Tea – Region: China75 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Jul. 2nd, 2025
This is a lightly smoky, jasmine flavored, dark green tea. The floral flavor is noticeable, but not very strong. It is well-balanced and not bitter, with a hint of ginger flavor. This is a good choice if you want a reasonably priced jasmine tea that is not overly floral.

Marrakesh Mint Tea from Mighty Leaf Tea
Style: Green Tea with Mint – Region: China42 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 1/5
Jun. 9th, 2025
NOTE: This tea has changed ingredients (and not for the better) since last update on RateTea in 2017. It used to be, "China Gunpowder green tea blended with refreshing Moroccan peppermint," per website of that era. Now it is, "Chinese green tea blended with sweet, bright spearmint," based on the labeling of packagi...

Earl Grey Decaf from Mighty Leaf Tea
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: Blend71 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 2/5
May. 12th, 2025
Here's another Mighty Leaf blend I got included in a hotel stay, but I'm basing the (way overpriced) value rating on the online cost, over 50¢/bag in 100-ct bulk box! Even for a really good decaf tea, that's probably too steep to steep for most folks, unless one is so desperate for a very good decaf EG that such a la...

Steep Organic Green Tea & Pomegranate from Bigelow Tea
Style: Fruit Green Tea – Region: ?????42 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 2/5
May. 8th, 2025
Somehow, with the "organic" promotional pump and the higher cost, I expected this tea to improve upon the non-organic Bigelow version that doesn't have the "Steep" name attached. Instead, I rated it 20 points lower, with the "value" as overpriced. It costs more than the "normal" pomegranate-flavored green tea from Bi...

Napoléon Tea from TWG Tea
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend91 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Mar. 27th, 2025
Napoléon Tea conquered me, quickly. Of all the samplers I sniffed in TWG's Bangkok store, this was one of the strongest, and certainly the most attractive to me in terms of choosing a priority for which ones to buy. The dry and in-cup aromas weren't quite as intense as the sampler, but still quite mouth-watering.

Golden Earl Grey from TWG Tea
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: Blend78 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Mar. 3rd, 2025
This tea came from a TWG shop in Bangkok, weighed and bagged onsite out of the top 1/4 of a wholesale bucket. As such, it smelled and tasted (and should be!) really fresh, and is excellent in quality on both counts. The dry aroma is quite fruity, more in a berry-like way than citrus, but with the bergamot orange stil...

Style: Flavored Green Tea – Region: Darjeeling, India60 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Feb. 20th, 2025
This is a fairly light, snappy Darjeeling green plus some peppermint, and a dash of lemon (which the company website calls "lemon pieces and natural lemon essence.") Overall, it is pleasant enough. It is advertised as "perfect for hot summer days" and they recommend cold brewing it, so I will have to try it on ice at...

Style: Flavored Green Tea – Region: ?????55 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 3/5
Jan. 10th, 2025
Green tea with "cinnamon, berries, herbs, and flowers." That sounds good, but overall it is bland and light, without much flavor of either tea or adjuncts. The aroma is nice enough, and it is reasonably priced, but this is another disappointing tea in my last batch from Shanti. It could be that they are using up ingred...

Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: ?????65 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 2/5
Jan. 8th, 2025
This has a strong, pipe tobacco-like aroma. The flavor is mild black tea - not the "strong black tea" the label mentions - plus a dash of maple. It makes a pleasant cup, with milk and sugar.
