270 Tasting Notes
Here’s Hoping Traveling Tea Box
This one is pretty tasty. I like that I can tell that it is a green tea and that the fruit flavor is certainly mixed in there. The flavor isn’t exactly mango but it isn’t exactly kiwi. If I think about it I can almost discern one or the other but they compliment each other well.
Preparation
Here’s Hoping Traveling Tea Box
I love green tea and I love mint. There was a tea shop when I lived in Missouri that had (well, has) a delicious mint green tea that I kept in my stash. This isn’t quite that but simple and enjoyable. The mint is there, though not as strong as I’d personally like.
Preparation
This is my add-on from their Holiday Kickstarter. I’m so happy to have this back in my stash. I did forget to stop at the 2 minute mark though.

Preparation
This brews up as a very light liquid. This certainly is a grassy tea but in a tasty way.

Preparation
I’m not 100% sure that this is the 2014 one but possibly as this was purchased from someone on here within a year or two. I do apologize that I cannot remember who this one is from, everything ends up in a ever growing bin labeled “try me!”.
This brewed up a light green-yellow. I did add sweetener which ended up bringing out almost a juicy texture/feel. This has a touch of grassy-ness to it and it’s dry. It makes for quite the enjoyable cup!
Preparation
I usually shy away from unflavored black teas. This one isn’t your typical black tea. It’s calmer, if you will. There is some astringency but it’s not unpleasant. I also had sweetener ready to go but didn’t have to add it! I think I now know what “malty” is thanks to this tea. It is also quite smooth. Thanks for exposing me to this LiquidProust
Preparation
Holidays TTB I can drink this one without sweetener. The mango is sort of a tease, darting around under the black tea taste. That black tea component is a little too much for my personal taste so I tried the addition of sweetener. It muted the black tea taste but didn’t do anything for the mango flavors.
Holidays TTB: I think the main flavor I get out of this is peony? followed by jasmine. It does have a mild astringency that dries the back of my throat a bit. This has a pleasant, very light, fruity flavor. Looking at the ingredients it is likely that it is currant that I am registering. This is different than anything I can remember having. It’s tasty and worth a look into purchasing.
Preparation
Holidays TTB: this brews up very light in color and taste. I did add sweetener to this which brought out some more of the strawberry flavor. It’s quite smooth. This is not something that I could see myself purchasing for myself so I am thankful yet again for tea boxes :) Thanks guys!
