Mmm, I’m interested in this tea — never tried it before. The fruity smell of the tea was strong in the bag but after steeping the aroma of the tea itself came out more. It brews up to a lovely reddish-brown.

I’m so happy to report that the fruit is not as strong as it originally smelled. That would have been too much — I’m still getting used to fruity tea. This is a fine black tea blend! The fruit taste is there, but barely. I think with sweetener it may come out more, but I don’t usually sweeten my tea. This tastes fine by itself.

If you like subtly fruit-flavored teas, then give this one a shot!

I had only a little time before work started this morning and was looking for an easy tea bag I could throw in my mug quickly. Den’s Tea sampler to the rescue! This was vibrant green in the bag, with powder that looked like matcha. I loved the color it brewed up to in my clear glass mug — it was a bright green!

The taste is pleasantly grassy and light. It tastes like many other Senchas I have tried, but without astringency. I am enjoying this as my morning tea.

Tea with real chocolate? YUM! I got a sample of this from Stacy and I was blown away by the scent right away. Orange, chocolate, tea, and a sweetness I can’t put my finger on make this a fragrant tea.

My sample melted a little in the mailbox (it was a hot day in the bay yesterday) so there were little chocolatey lumps of tea in there today. Sadly, shortly after steeping I dropped my brew basket on the floor sob and all the delicious wet tea leaves fell out on my work carpet. I really wanted to try a resteep on this one!

I was so excited to try this tea I burned my tongue! Waiting a bit… thank goodness I can leave it and do a little work while my thermos keeps it hot. This is a good tea! I’m tasting mostly black tea and chocolate, with a little citrus aftertaste. I wish I had thought to bring my rock sugar to work with me so I could try this sweetened. I’ll just have to use my imagination on that one. I bet it’s wonderful sweet — it probably makes the chocolate flavors pop.

If you like those chocolate “break ’em apart” oranges, then try this tea. It’s like a liquid version of that holiday treat! Yum, yum, yum…

This tea is gorgeous! Silky silver needles and puffy pink and white buds. So pretty! It smells delicious too – both in the bag and as a tea.

Brewed it is sweet with a watermelon tickle at the back of the throat. Definitely more flavor once it cools. I’ve been drinking it plain, but I’m adding a little rock sugar since sweetener is recommended.

Wow, sweetener changes this into something like watermelon juice! I don’t usually care for my teas sweet, but I see why this was recommended. I bet this is wonderful iced. That would actually be perfect on this 90+ day! Whew. A sweet, fruity tea was just right. Maybe I’ll borrow some ice from a neighbor and try this tea cool.

Try this tea out if you like white tea, watermelon, or sweet blends.

I got this as a present from someone who knows I love tea! I washed it up and brought it to work today to try out. It doesn’t seem like it holds very much, but I appreciate the mesh tea strainer. I’m drinking some Oolong from Verdant this morning. The tea strainer is easy to use, although I wish I had a place to put it until it’s time to steep again.

I accidentally screwed on the lid wrong and tea dripped out and burned my arm. Make sure you screw it on carefully and look to make sure it’s straight across. If it’s tilted even a little it will leak as you try to drink.

Okay, the arm-burning aside, I like this! It has kept my tea warm for hours. HOURS! This is even with the lid that has openings to drink — not the screw-on one. I think it seemed like it didn’t hold much because it has some serious insulation in there. It really works! Usually my tea is ice cold by this time of the morning. YUM, hot tea! The person that gave this to me was right on the money.
