Tea Forte

Admittedly, this tastes rather like blueberries. It’s tart, rather than sweet, but the fruitiness comes through quite well. I think it could do with a little more sweetness, but otherwise, good.

Part of the “Noir” gift set by Tea Forte – I think these were just repackaged things from their normal tea line. Nevertheless, if you’re going to try a bunch of new teas I think samples are the way to go. Teas are from the Jamguri tea garden in Northern India.

The dry leaf smells really bad here, medicinal and cough syrup-y. So I wasn’t really looking forward to trying the cup. I am finding this isn’t too bad, though the cherry flavor is pretty light. It’s only slightly cough syrup-y. Also this tea has licorice in it, so take note of that, licorice haters. :) I think this would be a nice one to try as an iced tea. And I do like the black tea base here. So overall it’s not bad.

I wonder if these were reformulated recently, but I am not going to create a new entry.

A lovely tea. Perfect first thing in the morning when I got to work.

A nice tasting tea with a fantastic blueberry aroma and taste, accented by a subtle sage flavoring.

Another combo I never expected to work, but turned out amazingly.

The savoriness of the sage mixed with the subtle floral flavor of the tea and natural, smooth cinnamon makes for a shockingly good tea latte, or just as a hot tea. Cold less so, but this is the first Tea Forte product I can say I loved.

A fabulous green tea with subtle hints of cherry and almond.

Taste good, quick to make, nice and easy :D

sabe a canela a corazoncitos de dulce de canela, perfect for a lazy cold afternoon.

Smells lovely, but the taste isn’t that amazing.

The apple and cinnamon flavors are both very natural-tasting, but also very light. Not much else to say, it just didn’t leave a big impression on me.
