Had this iced today. Made it hot and then added ice. This is an excellent quick iced tea. No sugar necessary.

I really like this tea. It has nice flavor and smells amazing but I have one problem with it. Something is just off. It is almost oily – I am not sure if that is the right word. Its just weird. Can’t put my finger on it.

I got this in the Republic of Tea catalogue. It was very yummy. It smelled nice and peachy. I made it hot but then added ice and it made a very nice iced tea. The peach flavor really shined and I love subtle fruity iced teas. Especially with white or green bases. I would definitely consider buying this.

Just had this with some black bean tortilla chips and homemade guacamole = yummy. The smokiness of this tea went well with my savory snack :)

I didn’t really like this tea the first time I had it but it was much better today. I steeped it for 4 minutes using steep.it and I added a little bit of milk. I think the milk really helped mellow out the spices and it was quite enjoyable. I swear it had a slight scent of rum which I thought was a little odd, but overall it was good. I am gonna bump up the rating a bit.

I had this tea this morning it was decent. It is way more apple then tea. Kind of like apple cider. Its a good morning tea. I am separated from my whole tea collection right now so this is a pretty good stand-in.

I still am not a big fan of this tea. I don’t think I like what ever green tea art of tea uses because I didn’t like the mint green I got in this sampler pack either. The tea isn’t un-drinkable but I don’t find it particularly pleasant. It reminds me of seaweed and tastes almost salty. I like when green teas are more grassy/earthy.

I had the bottled iced version of this, so not this exact tea but I figured it was pretty similar since the iced tea is unsweetened. It was okay, the beginning tasted like cough syrup which wasn’t pleasant but I think it was because my fridge froze it and then it un-froze which messed up the flavoring. I have had this before and don’t remember the cough syrup note. About 1/4 of the way into the bottle that flavor left and it basically tasted fruity and I swear I tasted vanilla but I don’t know where that would be coming from.

Good little caffeine boost for the morning. Still pretty much a basic black tea.

Basic is all you need sometimes :)

very true – I am a big fan of basic black bagged teas – simple and usually pretty delicious

This tea is pretty good. It smells delicious. It isn’t particularly strong but it does have a nice blend of spices. I don’t really taste the apple but I think it helps dull the harshness of spice that I sometimes find to be a probably with unaltered chai tea.

Bio

Tea has always been a part of my life. A cup of tea was always the solution to middle school tears and high school early mornings.

When I was in college I started quite the little tea collection in my tiny kitchen cabinets.

I have definitely scaled back my tea ordering and tasting the past 2 years or so, but I am getting back into it.

Outside of tea my interests include reading, photography, too much tv, visiting new places, trying new restaurants and playing video games with my husband.
