Popular Tasting Notes

I adore tisanes. I’ve had quite a few from celestial seasoning that I would even call good. However, no matter how long I stepped this tea, the only flavor was a subtle tartness. Sugar did not help, icing it did not help. I’m disappointing.

Mmm this is my first Jasmine Silver Needle, I was afraid to try because I thought the jasmine would over power the silver needle but both go together very well. But I am still head over heels in love with their Milk Oolong.

Good tasting ceylon tea. The earl grey flavor is nearly non existent in this one, but it still makes a very nice cup of tea :)

I was surprised by the strength of the bergamot at first, used to much milder Earls, but it quickly became a morning standard. It’s strong but smooth—I imagine almost a vanilla sort of “feel”, if that makes any sense. I usually drink it black, although I’ve tried it on occasion with milk and honey.

One of my favorite teas. Nice and warming, not too much cinnamon and fig flavor – just the right amount. Great with a bit of agave nectar.

I absolutely love this tea. I found it at a craft fair and just love it.

I sipped on this for most of the morning. Very good. I unfortunately finished off the last of the small sample I had purchased, so now I just have to decide if I’m going to splurge for a tin of this one. I think I might…

Might this be the one that turns me into an Earl Grey convert? I’ve had bad luck with earl grey, I always find the bergamot to be unpleasant and overwhelming, and I have to force myself to finish it. While the bergamot is definitely present in this tea, it’s balanced with the black tea and lavender, you can sense all of the flavors, and it’s utterly delicious. The lavender obviously smooths out the bergamot and is clearly the perfect compliment to it. I’d never thought I’d crave an earl grey tea, but I find myself looking forward to being able to make a cup of this.

A decent, generic breakfast tea. I like it better than bagged blends, but I guess I was sort of expecting more from it? Maybe I’ve become a bit of a tea snob over the past couple of years!
