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...

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...
Read Full ReviewSweet Orange Black Tea from Upton Tea Imports
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...

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...

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 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.

Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: ?????40 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 1/5 Value: 2/5
Jan. 6th, 2025
I am pretty disappointed in this one, as I have had other flavored teas from Shanti that were very impressive. This is very bland, and lacks both spice and tea flavor. I made a few cups, and tried longer steeps, but to no avail. The list of ingredients is promising, but the tea itself is a dud.

Peppermint Bark from Great Value
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend59 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Jan. 1st, 2025
Peppermint Bark doesn't have much bite, but it's still fairly tasty. Overall, the tea fulfills its mission to replicate the flavor of the candy, with a creamy, smooth, almost savory taste, and a reasonably good balance between the mint and chocolate. That's because cocoa shells and carob are used to flavor the tea, i...

Blue of London from Palais des Thés

Dec. 24th, 2024
I’m not a huge Earl Grey person, but I think this one is done well! The flavor is strong and pleasant. I brewed it as directed (200°F, steeped for four minutes). I covered it while brewing with a silicone mug cap. It drank two good-size mugs of this tea and enjoyed both. People into bagged Earl Grey should like this...

Butterscotch Blondie from Tazo Tea

Dec. 23rd, 2024
Lovely tea! It smells and tastes quite good for a bagged tea. I enjoy its level of sweetness, which does taste like butterscotch. Solid quick tea.

Cocoa Berry Black Tea Blend from Trader Joe's
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend76 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Dec. 21st, 2024
The RateTea page for Trader Joe's states, "Many of Trader Joe's teas are experimental and are only available for short runs before being discontinued." Such appears to be the case for this interesting blend, which is specifically advertised on the website as "Limited time only!" as of Dec. 2024. Maybe that's because ...

Modern Earl Grey from Teavana
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: ?????79 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Nov. 1st, 2024
After a phase of pyramidal sachets in covered plastic cups a few years ago, Teavana seems to have been reconstituted yet again—this time as a line of individually wrapped bagged teas on the target-audience level of Tazo or Stash, but costlier. At a conference, I saw several new Teavana offerings, and took samples ho...

Earl Grey from Benner Tea Co
Style: Earl Grey Tea – Region: Blend72 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Aug. 30th, 2024
Benner Earl Grey (from ALDI food stores) came across much the opposite to me, on first try, as to the other reviewer: weak on bergamot and OK on tea. In fact, when opening the paper wrapper for each bag and taking a good sniff, I hardly could detect the bergamot, but the tea was obvious in the dry aroma. The bergamo...

Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: ?????80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Aug. 3rd, 2024
I tried this both hot and iced, and while it is fine hot, it is meant to be served in the summer on ice (with sugar or honey of course, and a squeeze of lemon is good to have as well). It is mostly organic, with only the "natural essences" being not organic. The aroma is floral and fruity, and the flavor emphasizes t...

May. 28th, 2024
I was very pleasantly surprised by this. I just finished disrespecting another fruit flavored tea from Upton, so I was not expecting much, but this is, as advertised, very fruity and tropical. It is made with sunflower, papaya, maracuja, and pineapple (both natural bits and in the form of flavoring). The aroma is qu...

May. 23rd, 2024
With a name like mango indica, I don't know if I am supposed to smoke this or drink it (lol). The aroma is nice, strong, and fruity, so I give them credit for that. But the flavor is dominated by - surprise, surprise - Lifesavers candy-type artificial fruit flavor. When will I learn? It is time for me to stop purcha...

Colombian Cacao Kisses Black Tea from Simpson & Vail
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Colombia68 / 100 Aroma: 2/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
May. 23rd, 2024
Disclaimer: I am trying this tea that has been in my cupboard for many years, possibly up to 10, so this rating may not be a completely accurate representation of what this tea would be like fresh. Black tea often mellows with age and loses aroma, and I would say this tea is certainly mellow but yet I still like it. It...

Special Blend from Ahmad Tea

May. 3rd, 2024
Found this at an Armenian market, $14 for 500 grams. The leaf is very dark. The brewed tea is a dark amber color. It has a slight bitterness, but to me tastes as most regular Earl Grey teas.

Parlour Room Blend from Murchie's Tea & Coffee Ltd
Style: Flavored Black Tea – Region: Blend59 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
Mar. 13th, 2024
This is one of those uncommon tea blends that smells and tastes exactly as advertised—no hidden "flavours" (as it's spelled where sold), no surprises, no Trojan horses. That's a good thing, if you like a smoky rose tea with some fruity elements. Murchie's describes this as, "Evoking the atmosphere of a Victorian si...
