New Tasting Notes

staple green in a pouch. yums.

Steep for 2 minutes & serve over ice & honey. My new favorite drink to make at the TG. It’s calming, decaf, & has an extremely smooth taste.

Yummy creamy minty bedtime goodness. Almost out.

This is a good tea that is very smooth and flavorful

Too Bitter. Nothing about it is even tea-like…maybe it’s drastically different iced…I hope so…NOT good warm/hot.

A mild tea for late afternoon. Simple.

nice blend of fruits and spice.

Nice twist on Green Tea. Not over powering – Green – and the lemon isn’t too lemony either. Nice Mix. No scent, tho. Pretty good for an inexpensive, bagged tea.

Light green tea that can be steeped several times. Usually put this with my cup infuser teas. I like it when I just want to drink something.

Mild and delicious. Love the color in my white teacup.

1/4 teaspoon of sugar and a little bit of milk (2% or lower). Never cream!

I was surprised at how good it is. It doesn’t just taste like a lemon tea…it almost reminds me of a lemon cake. I definitely need to buy this.

The smell is mildly floral and has a full bodied taste. A smooth buttery mouth feel. I tend to prefer winter harvest for Taiwanese tea and this one doesn’t disappoint..

This too is one of my favorites! It is a special tea that can make any normal day an exceptional day! You can day dream with this one.

There must have been something wrong with the box I tried. There was definitely a hint of fish-like flavor in both the taste and scent. I couldn’t stand to drink it, and neither could my sister. We were revolted.

I didn’t care for this one much. While it’s not terrible, it’s not as good as it seems like it should be. You can taste a bit of the cherry, but no caramel or butterscotch. While I’ve had some decent oolongs from The Tea Table, both of the flavored teas I have tried have left a lot to be desired. I don’t think I’ll be trying any more.

This was…not my cup of tea. The pistachios were overwhelming, and the spices were just odd to me. I did, however, like the way it smelled. I’m sure some people would enjoy this tea, but I definitely won’t be purchasing it again.

I got this sample in the mail and really did not like it. I like the idea of having cayenne pepper in a tea, but it just doesn’t work with this. To me, at least. Also, I can’t stand the taste of fennel seed, so that really ruined it for me.

This was also pretty weird. I’m not sure how I feel about this brand now, but at the same time, these were just samples I got in a trade. Anyway, it tastes like cherry cobbler to me, and it has a sort of creamy quality, but I found it kinda bland. Maybe I’ll try it with 2 teaspoons and see what I think. I couldn’t really taste the butterscotch chips.

This tea is so weird. Not only are there whole pistachios in it, there’s also cumin spice (which is used in making tacos) and peppercorns. While it does have a sort of sugar-cookie-ish taste, it does also sort of taste like… butter. And spices. It’s not necessarily a bad thing. But at the same time, I think this will have to be an acquired taste.

So, I’m having a fresh cup of this tea, and decided to give live commentary. Brewed a teaspoon of it in approximately on cup of boiling water using a pre-heated mug for four minutes. The smell is surprisingly sweet. Taking a sip, the flavor is also sweeter than I remembered it being. If it were much sweeter, I don’t think I’d like it, but as is it’s alright. I can easily imagine myself growing to like this more, but right now I think I like the idea of this tea more than the actual flavor.
I should also comment that I am using the same mug I made the chamomile in last night, although that wasn’t very sweet itself, and I did rinse the mug out with boiling water when I was warming it, so I don’t think the chamomile could affect the flavor, at least not perceptibly.

Oh god. One sniff and I was instantly reminded of orange-scented disinfectant. This stuff is TERRIBLE. I took a few sips, trying to find something I liked about it, but I just couldn’t. I dumped it out shortly after. It’s blindingly artificial. Awful, awful, awful.
