Teepee Dreams from Native American Tea Company
Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: Blend61 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 2/5
Feb. 21st, 2024
Here's another box of this brand that I got overpriced at a Black Hills souvenir store. Like the others, the bags are both small and underfilled, docking the "value" category, despite this being a decent-tasting blend.
The dry-bag aroma came across as a disjointed melange of a lot of stuff, much akin to the "unde...
DeTox from Yogi Tea
Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: Blend44 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 2/5
Apr. 25th, 2023
To think, I was on a run of decent to good scores for teas from this brand...no more. DeTox has no real personality because it seems to be an "everything but the kitchen sink" concoction. The dry-bag aroma is interesting: peppery, grassy, a little minty or fruity, depending on the way the vapors waft across the pass...

Mango Ginger from Yogi Tea
Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: Blend79 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
Mar. 30th, 2022
I liked this more than most Yogi blends I've tried, probably because it has tropical fruit flavors I enjoy greatly (mango and passion fruit), a spicy kick, and "only" nine ingredients. [For the uninitiated, that's extreme simplicity for Yogi Tea.] Those ingredients are (organic): ginger, cinnamon, rooibos, mango flav...

Kava Stress Relief® from Yogi Tea
Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: Blend78 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Mar. 19th, 2022
Some Yogi teas have bazillions of ingredients, while smelling and/or tasting like disjointed mishmashes of unrelated flavors, and/or spice-infused clippings from a lawn-mower bag. Good news: not this one! Kava Stress Relief seems to have some coherent and pleasant character to it. Regardless of the veracity of its a...

Green Tea Super Antioxidant from Yogi Tea
Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: Blend44 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 2/5
Oct. 25th, 2021
A co-worker who drinks a lot of medicinal herbal teas left me this and regurgitated not the tea itself, but the claim that it "helps reduce free radicals". My response: "How? By imprisoning the radicals?" Smart-aleck retorts aside, I'm wary of teas that make a bunch of health claims that aren't solidly backed medical...

Organic Lemon Echinacea Throat Coat® from Traditional Medicinals
Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: Blend72 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Sep. 18th, 2021
As medicinal herbals go, this one was OK—not as OK as Oklahoma pronounced itself on 1970s license plates, but OK nonetheless. The dry bag gave off a pronounced licorice aroma, which doesn't bother me, since I'm cool with licorice. But some folks hate licorice, and I predict they won't take a shine to the smell or t...

Lemon, Ginger & Manuka Honey from Pukka
Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: Blend78 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Aug. 31st, 2021
Cup at home, made from a teabag containing a mixture of ginger root, liquorice root, elderflower, sweet fennel seed, lemon verbana leaf, tumeric root, lemon essential oil flavour, lemon whole, lemon myrtle leaf, all sprinkled with manuka honey flavour. Pours somewhat hazy straw with no sediment. Clear aroma of liquoric...

Organic Herbal Supplement: Detox Cleansing Blend from Trader Joe's
Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: Blend87 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Jul. 18th, 2021
With similar coloration of the outer box, as well as ingredients, I suspect this is the Trader Joe's imitation of Yogi's "DeTox" product. However, I can't compare the two directly, since I haven't (yet) tried the Yogi version. Still, this is the best wellness/medicinal tea I've had to date, one of the best herbal te...

Valerian Nights from DAVIDsTEA
Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: Blend72 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Dec. 26th, 2020
Prep: 200F, 1 sachet, 12oz, 5min
Aroma: There is a lot going on here. I’ll just say the coconut is most prevalent but many other notes are in the background. 7/10
Flavor: There is a good bit of coconut and apple here. I’m not well versed in some of the other items included but I’m generally impressed. 7/1...
Herbal Remedy Organic from TeaGschwendner
Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: Blend70 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Dec. 25th, 2020
Half-litre pot at home (as Erkältungszeit), made from a sample included in the tea company's Advent Tea Calendar (2020) and consisting of leaves of Moldavian balm, ribgrass, thyme, and sage, as well as the blossom of elderflower and mallow - all of them organic. Pours clear olive greenish amber (against white china) w...

Licorice Spice Herbal Tea from Stash Tea
Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: ?????75 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Aug. 14th, 2020
I'm not a fan of licorice in general, but this wasn't actually bad. If I had to drink a licorice-based tea, this wouldn't a bad choice -- especially considering how inexpensive it is.

Sleepytime Throat Tamer™ Wellness Tea from Celestial Seasonings
Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: ?????79 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 4/5
May. 16th, 2020
Strangely, I found this much more aromatic, flavorful and overall pleasant to drink than the seemingly similar "just" Sleepytime. That's probably because it has more stuff that is flavorful and aromatic on the ingredients list.
The common components between the two blends are chamomile, spearmint and lemongrass, ...
Pitta (No. 1298) from TeaGschwendner
Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: Blend66 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 4/5
May. 9th, 2020
Half-litre pot at home, made from a mixture of lemongrass, dried mint and raspberry leaves, cardamom, rose and mallow blossom, and tiny pieces of liquorice root - a purely herbal Ayurvedic wellness concoction with not a touch of tea leaves in it. Pours nearly clear olive green (against white china) with no sediment. Cl...

Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: Blend84 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Apr. 19th, 2020
I really enjoy this tea. I do find it helps me to relax. I love the mix of lavender, rose, and rooibos.

Lemon Ginger from Yogi Tea
Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: Blend65 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 4/5
Apr. 5th, 2020
Steeped with just boiling water for 5 minutes. Served in enamel tin mug.
Notes of ginger and lemongrass on the nose. I'm not getting much lemon to be honest, perhaps this is just my palate. In retrospect with this comment, it may be better off with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice as one might add to a good black tea....
Sov Godt (Nr. 260) from Carstensens Tehandel
Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: ?????70 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Mar. 1st, 2020
Half-litre pot at home. Pours nearly clear fudge brown with no sediment. Complex aroma of valeriana, aniseed, peppermint and fennel. Herbal flavour of mint and valeriana, with notes of aniseed and fennel and touches of cummin and rosemary. Clean palate, with notes of mint and aniseed. It is a purifying and tranquilisin...

Green Tea Kombucha from Yogi Tea
Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: Blend10 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 1/5
Jan. 19th, 2020
It didn't taste like green tea. It didn't taste like kombucha. It didn't affect me like kombucha, which typically leaves me with a positive feeling. It actually gave me a headache, despite the fact that I've had all the ingredients in this tea separately and never had a negative reaction to any of them. The flavor wasn...

Yogi Soothing Caramel Bedtime from Yogi Tea
Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: Blend57 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
Oct. 20th, 2019
Here Yogi offers a caramel-flavored blend that has a few ingredients not listed in the more-established "Bedtime" offering, and vice versa. Perhaps they are different enough that this version deserves its own independent title. For reasons elucidated below, I propose "Sweet Desert Dust Storm". Would the marketing ...

Organic Gas Relief® from Traditional Medicinals
Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: ?????63 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Sep. 5th, 2019
Friends and family will testify to my potent propensity for production of organic gas, from which they desperately desire relief. This tea, "Organic Gas Relief", therefore came not only recommended, but insistently so. It's touching that so many people care so much.
According to the box, precisely 300 mg each of f...
Lemon Ginger Herbal Plus Probiotics from Bigelow Tea
Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: Blend68 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Jul. 23rd, 2019
Caveat: While tolerant of them in some combinations and contexts, I'm not a big fan of either lemon or ginger. Please take this rating in the context of assessing the nominal mix of two flavors that, while not repulsive to me, aren't particular favorites either.
When I do have ginger, I look for it to give a good...
Throat Coat® from Traditional Medicinals
Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: Blend90 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
May. 28th, 2019
My family has been drinking Throat Coat for at least 15+ years. It's the first thing we reach for when we have colds. It is very soothing on the throat, helps open breathing passages, and temporarily reduces coughing. Highly recommend a 5 min covered steep time, a squeeze of lemon, and honey to taste. On it's own it t...

Sleepytime Extra from Celestial Seasonings
Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: ?????70 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Apr. 17th, 2019
The only difference I've detected between this product and regular Sleepytime is the addition of valerian root to the ingredients list, and a caution on the side of the box about not driving or operating machinery after using, as if this is some herbal-tea version of Ambien or Sominex. Of course, it's not. I'm writin...

Plum Fruit Blend from SerendipiTea

Jan. 20th, 2019
Another in Serendipitea's line-up of flavorful fruit tisanes. This one is more expensive than the other 2 I tried, and I'm not sure why, since it follows the same pattern of ingredients (apple, hibiscus, rose hips, fruit, and natural flavor.) This has some orange peel and licorice root, which could account for the co...

Blood Pressure from Triple Leaf Tea
Style: Wellness Tea / Medicinal Tea – Region: China37 / 100 Aroma: 2/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 2/5
Jan. 1st, 2019
Seeing the questionable claims made by some wellness-tea makers, including this one on its site, raises my blood pressure. That rather opposes the stated intent of this tea! Fortunately that effect is temporary. It's wise to heed the last part of RateTea's description of Triple Leaf: "Some of this company's product...

Green Tea Triple Echinacea from Yogi Tea

Dec. 20th, 2018
Yet another culled from my sister-in-law's large and diverse organic/natural-tea collection, which has included a lot of Yogi teas, this is one of the better-tasting ones from either her clay jar or the Yogi teas I've tried.
The dry bag and in-cup aromas reminded me of a generic store-brand green tea with mild spea...
