Hot, this doesn’t taste like much. Cold with milk and sugar, it’s a pretty decent decaf EG! It’s smooth and well-balanced. The resteep was pretty hearty as well.

This definitely tasted like strawberry lemonade! Unfortunately that’s a flavor I’ve never preferred, but points for accuracy! I didn’t notice the orange blossom. I just tasted the tartness and acidity. Saved this teabag from a previous TTB.

I’m not a huge white tea fan, and white tea is the main flavor here. Still, I don’t dislike it since it’s quite high quality. I taste some strawberry along with the base, but I know I’d prefer this as a green tea. It’s a little straightforward for me, but I suppose I do notice some marshmallowy flavor that’s nice.

The coconut is certainly the strongest flavor here. I like this best cold sweetened with almond milk. The rooibos is a great base for the coconut. Coconut isn’t one of my favorite flavors, so I’m not sure why I bought this blend, but I’ll enjoy my 2 oz!

drank Cherry Cloud Black Tea by 52teas

I taste the cherry without it coming off as medicinal, which is nice. The base reminds me a bit of bark, but in a good way. It was all too mildly flavored for my preferences though. The second time I had this, I didn’t really taste any cherry.

Fruity red rooibos sometimes comes out murky to me, and that’s definitely the case here. I taste the nonspecific fruit flavor, and it mixes with the rooibos to be pretty muddled and meh. It was okay cold, but I wish I could have tasted the mango or that the base could be changed.

drank Decaf Chai by Tazo

Leftover teabag from a TTB. This was much better than I would have guessed! The black base was hearty enough, and the spices were pretty well balanced, though I can’t tell for sure what I taste most strongly. I enjoyed it with sugar and milk and would drink it again if I came across it, though I wouldn’t go out of my way to purchase it.

This has Earl grey vibes. It’s a little lemony and creamy. It goes well with milk and sweetener. I think it tastes best cold. The final time I had it, I mostly noticed spices that hadn’t been present in the rest of the cups – I guess they had all settled to the bottom! I never noticed the strawberry.

drank Lemon Ginger Honey by Nelson's Tea

The strongest flavor is licorice. It’s quite sweet. There might be a bit of other stuff in there, but it’s really mostly that licorice. It’s not bad, but not something I would choose. It doesn’t need sweetener. Since this one is a bit boring, I find myself choosing it when I just need hydration and am not paying attention to flavor. I unsubscribed from their subscription box a while ago, and I think this was the last tea I had to finish!

I had no idea what to expect for this one. The flavor was mostly slightly celery-ish chamomile plus a hit of ginger. Plain, I didn’t love the combination. Sweetened with milk, it was better, though not great. I considered adding flavoring syrup since it was a little plain.

I’m an event planner who always has multiple mugs of tea beside me. Hobbies other than tea include board games, video games, cooking international dishes, science fiction, hiking, jigsaw puzzles, tap dancing, reading, listening to podcasts, and playing with my troublesome kitties.

Favorite flavors: dessert flavors, nutty, melon, mint, strawberry, anything rooibos-related.

Don’t prefer: Smoky, rosemary, savory flavors, floral (other than lavender), plain tea.

I always drink flavored tea, and preferably caffeine-free or black. I’ll try just about anything though! Let me know if you’re interested in a swap!

My ratings are kind of meaningless, but basically
90-100 pretty perfect
80-89 really good
70-79 good, but not the best
60-69 okay, but probably not for me
1-59 varying degrees of dislike
