Popular Tasting Notes

Bagged. This came in a Celestial Sample pack and I’ve been dying to try it.
Onwards, the team bag smells lemony and minty. I cannot
really make out the chamomile. Once I brewed it and added sugar, I only
tasted the chamomile. Very good and very rich in flavor. After working 8+ hours it was
the perfect end to my stressful day.

To be honest I think rooisbos is one of my least favorite tea types; not to say they’re all awful or anything, but I tend to dislike them more than the rest. That being said, I’m not particularly a huge fan of this tea when brewed by itself; somebody had mentioned honeybush giving a fairly soapy aftertaste, and I definitely agree with that. It does, however, serve me very well for mixing! I combine it with some dark spicy chais to sweeten em up!

This is one of the teas I choose whenever my throat feels irritated. It works well to soothe the irritation away.

I got Toasted Marshmallow tea for my birthday from my friend.

I must admit, when I look at this tea, I could swear that I have seen these ingredients somewhere before… like maybe… on a tree! Haha.

Anyways, so as soon as I read that this tea contains allspice, I went to sniff my own container of allspice in my kitchen, and well, the tea and the allspice, smell almost identical! The taste is very rustic and a bit sweet, but really,nothing like toasted marshmallows! Sorry to disappoint you all, but the allspice is overpowering, and it’s basically all I taste.

As a quick side note, right after my friend ordered this tea for me, they discontinued it :( Oh well. I’ll miss it a little bit, and I’ll enjoy the 50g that I have with me now and cherish and savor it!

I was expecting something earthier, but to my surprise, this was a very sweet and pleasant tea. The mocha and hazelnut flavoring is quite strong, and I suspect fans of those flavors of coffee would very much enjoy this. I did notice the caffeine was a bit higher than normal, definitely not something to try before you go to bed!

Blah. Didn’t like the taste.

I’m a Mint-Freak! If you are, too, this is the Tea for YOU! Everything about it is a real eye opener! The smell, the taste, the color…all fantastic! I absolutely LOVE it! Totally intense!

I think this tea has the best of Japanese strains and growing conditions, while benefiting the subtleties that a Chinese process gives. There’s some fantastic straw, chestnut, and dried berry characters in there, while finishing with a strong hint of that kelpy green the Japanese so adore.

Double cup, 4 raw sugar.
