Baker Street Blend from Murchie's Tea & Coffee Ltd
Style: Green and Black Tea Blend – Region: Blend62 / 100 Aroma: 5/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Nov. 17th, 2024
This is such a daring mix of different tea types that it's hard to believe the blend is over 100 years old, instead of a seasonal or experimental offering. Baker Street (per Murchie's website) is the same as their popular and longstanding No. 10 Blend, but with one tea added: Lapsang Souchong. So in total, the blend...

Hatley Castle Blend Tea Bags from Murchie's Tea & Coffee Ltd
Style: Green and Black Tea Blend – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5

Here's still another quality green-black blend from Murchie's, who has a large menu of them and seems to have mastered the apparently delicate art. The blend also is over a century old too, with an interesting history: a custom job originally prepared by company founder James Murchie for Laura Dunsmuir, wife of James...

Government Street Blend Tea Bags from Murchie's Tea & Coffee Ltd
Style: Green and Black Tea Blend – Region: Blend89 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5

Here's yet another in a parade of marginally different green/black blends offered by Murchie's, all of which have pleased my nasal passages and taste buds nicely on the way inside. GSB, for short, is the third Murchie's green/black product I've found with both jasmine and bergamot, this one the most bergamot-weighted,...

CBC Radio Blend Tea Bags from Murchie's Tea & Coffee Ltd
Style: Green and Black Tea Blend – Region: Blend80 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
May. 8th, 2022
This tea was blended originally in 1996 to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, though I don't think CBC markets it directly. Murchie's website touts, "choice Ceylon and China black teas, Jasmine and other green teas with a touch of citrus".
Another in a remarkably large select...
No. 22 Blend Tea Bags from Murchie's Tea & Coffee Ltd
Style: Green and Black Tea Blend – Region: Blend90 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5

Murchie's promotes this as a more robustly flavored version of their No. 10 Blend, which I reviewed very favorably in 2019, and I agree. So I'll give it a few more points. The component teas are:
GREEN: Jasmine and gunpowder
BLACK: Keemun and Ceylon, with some bergamot.
No. 22 Blend is yet another in a growing...
Anniversary Blend Tea Bags from Murchie's Tea & Coffee Ltd
Style: Green and Black Tea Blend – Region: Blend79 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Sep. 12th, 2021
Murchie's developed this blend to commemorate their 125th anniversary (1894–2019), and I hope it sticks around.
A blind taste test might elicit a reaction like this: "Really nice black tea blend, but I can't quite place this interesting flavor it has under that." The black tea solidly dominates the green in dry-b...
Library Blend Tea Bags from Murchie's Tea & Coffee Ltd
Style: Green and Black Tea Blend – Region: Blend86 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Apr. 22nd, 2021
Murchie's touts Library Blend as the ideal tea to sip while reading a good book—hence the name. Instead I chugged three of several cups so far while watching a live-streamed volcanic eruption. Does that violate the "spirit" of the brand? ;-)
Library is a green-black mix, one of quite a large inventory of such bl...
Queen Victoria Tea Bags from Murchie's Tea & Coffee Ltd
Style: Green and Black Tea Blend – Region: Blend44 / 100 Aroma: 4/10 Flavor: 2/5 Value: 4/5
Feb. 19th, 2021
Have you ever walked into the lobby of a tire shop, and noted its distinctive aroma of freshly manufactured tire rubber? That was my immediate impression of the taste/scent blend upon drinking this tea, and I can't shake it. It's as if someone liquefied that air in a tire store, and stirred it into a tea. The websit...

Waterfront Blend from Murchie's Tea & Coffee Ltd
Style: Green and Black Tea Blend – Region: Blend88 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 5/5
Sep. 5th, 2020
This product is named after Vancouver's Waterfront Hotel, which commissioned Murchie's to produce it for tea service there starting in the 1990s. Buoyed by the success Murchie's has had with their somewhat similar, jasmine-flavored #10 Blend, over many decades of production in general, and in my mouth in particular, I...

No. 10 Blend Tea Bags from Murchie's Tea & Coffee Ltd
Style: Green and Black Tea Blend – Region: Blend86 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 5/5
Oct. 17th, 2019
RateTea's description of green/black blending says that it's hard to pull off successfully, due to temperature differences needed for optimal steeping of each. Partly for that reason, I haven't tried many (if any) green/black mixtures. And yet...

Om from Tazo Tea
Style: Green and Black Tea Blend – Region: Himalayas60 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
May. 29th, 2013
This was the old-style Tazo "Om" that you could get in Starbucks before Tazo revamped it's brand into 2 lines with different package designs. Om is supposed to be a green and black blend and thus it seems to be neither when you steep it. Tasted very good though - so what the heck! Not sure if you can get this formul...

Om from Tazo Tea
Style: Green and Black Tea Blend – Region: Himalayas63 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Mar. 14th, 2011
A bit of a muddled aroma, but it works. There are some fruity tones, like a muscatel Darjeeling but with a more tangy flavor. Upon drinking more of the cup, I can notice some grassy qualities, and a brightness that I associate with high-grown black teas. Flavor is fairly sour, and only slightly bitter. There's a hi...

Om from Tazo Tea
Style: Green and Black Tea Blend – Region: Himalayas77 / 100 Aroma: 8/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
Oct. 25th, 2010
Whoops! Didn't let me finish... There is something ineffably yummy about this tea. It shouldn't work (black AND green? With "flavors of peach and cucumber?) but it is bright, grassy, and drinkable, less earthy than a green but less tannic than a black. I keep drinking more, just to try and put my finger on what's g...
