Ode To Joy from Murchie's Tea & Coffee Ltd
Style: Miscellaneous Blend – Region: Blend82 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Dec. 1st, 2021
Here's the third offering reviewed here, and the second-best to me, from a 4-pack sample of the various seasonal holiday teas Murchie's produces. As with the others, they are flavored loose blends, in this case composed of black tea, jasmine green, calendula flowers, elder flowers, and unspecified "natural and artifi...

Evergreen from Murchie's Tea & Coffee Ltd
Style: Miscellaneous Blend – Region: Blend78 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Nov. 21st, 2021
Evergreen is a unique tea, to say the least. That usually means it's going to be a major turn-off, a surprising crowd-pleaser, or just weird. How about, "pleasantly weird"?
Like Shania's boyfriends in her pop-country song, the first couple cups had me thinking, "That don't impress me much!" Unlike them with her, ...
Earl Grey Lavender from Revolution Tea
Style: Miscellaneous Blend – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Nov. 27th, 2019
Here's the first tea I've tried from a Revolution variety pack, and it was a pleasant surprise! The ingredients list looked promising, with a blend of Ceylon, Darjeeling and "Foromosa" (presumably Formosa, misspelled) oolong, French lavender flowers, and bergamot oil.
It was impossible not to compare this to anothe...
Sweetheart from Murchie's Tea & Coffee Ltd
Style: Miscellaneous Blend – Region: Blend84 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 9th, 2018
Fans of unabashedly fruity teas, this one's for you. Get some today. "Sweetheart" is well worth giving love, though in a somewhat unexpected way.
While on their website replenishing stocks of other Murchie's teas, I saw this new loose blend, checked the ingredients (including the pieces of coconut visible in the ph...
Turmeric Amber Sun from Numi Organic Tea
Style: Miscellaneous Blend – Region: Blend35 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 2/5
Oct. 28th, 2017
In the roller-coaster experience that is the Numi variety pack, I've hit a deep dip again. At least, unlike some literal roller-coaster riders, I didn't retch.
For the most part, the teas I've tried so far containing turmeric have been underwhelming, at best. This one strikes me as a randomly conceived herbal vec...
Mate Lemon Green Tea - Rainforest Green™ from Numi Organic Tea
Style: Miscellaneous Blend – Region: ?????54 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Oct. 7th, 2017
This tea has multiple-personality disorder. At times, it tasted like a smooth, non-sour, lemony yerba mate/green tea blend in rather delicious synchronization, a whole noticeably better than the sum of parts. Neither mate nor lemon are favorites of mine, yet the balance of them somehow worked in those sips. I almost...

Organic Red Leaf Mint from Seattle's Finest Teas
Style: Miscellaneous Blend – Region: Blend90 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Dec. 13th, 2016
Whoa, where to start with this sublime face-slapper. Perhaps the best one-word characterization of both the smell and aroma, in a good way, is "explosive".
Because there are so many ingredients, all natural and organic, more discriminating palates than mine probably can conjure up all manner of nuances, notes, un...
Morning Thunder® from Celestial Seasonings
Style: Yerba Maté Black Tea – Region: ?????20 / 100 Aroma: 1/10 Flavor: 1/5 Value: 2/5
Jun. 30th, 2016
Personal preferences and tastes drive all these ratings, but none more than here. Man, was this tea ever a revolting turn-off. The smell raised red flags, and the taste screamed, "never again!"
See, I like teas with strong flavors--as long as I like the flavor itself. This tea uses a decidedly, intensely smoky ve...
Holiday Tea - Candy Cane Lane® from Celestial Seasonings
Style: Miscellaneous Blend – Region: ?????93 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 11th, 2016
I agree with the sentiments below that this tea doesn't quite match its absolutely sublime scent, but also, to me very few teas do.
Regardless, this is one of my top 2 or 3 favorite herbals (another one by CS, Tension Tamer, is up there as well). This tea is very smooth, minty and creamy, natively sweet, and as a...
