The Boston Tea Company

While I may have gotten a bad batch of this, I did not care for this one at all. There was something a little off in the flavor profile making it smell more like a meat marinade than a Ginger Peach tea. I am thinking that maybe it is a case of someone getting a little crazy with the artificial flavorings. Would not buy or recommend.

I made this by the cold brew in the ’fridge method and I love it. The pineapple stays true, it is a very pretty pale green and the berry and lemon come out as nice additions.

Smells wonderful tastes nicely pineappley while warm, ends up more berry flavored. The liquor starts out bright green then gets muddy, then it is pink. Very odd. You fruity tea people might like it iced. It’s a nice tea.

Yup! This is doable ICED or COLD…Sure the Hibiscus is in the forefront more – but it just makes better sense.

It’s alright…considering…

Thanks for this one too LiberTEAS!!!

Oh no! Hibiscus! Oye! I’m only infusing for 2 mins or so…maybe that will help!
It seemed to help a little…neat!
I’m drinking this warm but I am thinking it would be better cold. Normally I wouldn’t do this…but I think I am going to pop this in the frig for a little bit and revisit. No rating for the time being…

Again, hella busy but wanted to log…this is a good strong minty green…very refreshing…YUMMY…

Thank you to my SororiTEA Sister TeaEqualsBliss for sending this tea my way.

This is a very mild, pleasantly smooth Ceylon. I love the aroma of this tea – I keep finding myself holding my cup up to my nose and just inhaling the fragrance as the steam wafts from the cup.

While it is mild, it has a lot of flavor – and I am enjoying its complex layers of flavor. I taste a rich, fruity flavor – almost peach/plum -ish. I can also taste piquant floral notes and even a honey-esque note which tastes quite indulgent.

A very nice afternoon tea.

I brewed some of this the other night to enjoy as iced tea… and it’s yummy.

The flavor of the white tea softens a bit with the chilling, but, the flavor does not become so delicate that I can’t taste it. The tangerine really pops in this tea now. Some of the more tropical notes seem to have become more muted now too… either that or the tangerine has just totally dominated the flavor and the tropical taste is less noticeable.

It is a very good iced tea.

I need to brew some more tea for iced tea – and when I received this tea it screamed “ICED TEA!” to me. Since I hadn’t tried it at all, I thought I’d try a hot cuppa first, and then work on filling up my iced tea pitcher.

This has a very nice tropical flavor with a highlight on the citrus-y notes, and I can really taste the white tea here. Smooth, sweet, and fruity. YUMMY! The flavor is not so delicate that it will be lost when it chills either – it’s going to be amazing iced!

LiberTEAS sent this my way the last time she sent me a box of goodies! She told me this was going to be good and it IS…Woot!!!

This is black tea and coconut tasting indeed. It’s fairly creamy and YES you can taste the coconut more the more it cools for a few mins. When’s it super hot there is a cookie-likeness but it seems to fade as it cools and is replaced with more coconut taste!

Neat tea.

Drinking this on ice. I am very impressed. Good rooibos with not-sweet berry flavor. Slightly tart. Most refreshing.

I really like this. Delicate coconut flavor that is mildly sweet without sugariness. Milk goes nicely, didn’t like it with lime or sugar. Coconut comes out more as it cools. Tea base was very fresh and good quality

I am not crazy about hibiscus, and this blend has a bit more hibiscus than I’d like it to have. Some hibiscus in a herbal/fruit blend is good because it gives the tea a nice body, but, too much gives it a bit more tart than I care for.

So this is a bit more tart than I’d like it to be. that being said, it has a decent berry flavor.

Not one that I’d order again, but glad I had the opportunity to try it.

Nice! The flavor is sweet and very coconut!

There is a faint bitter note towards the end of the sip that rests in the back of the mouth. I’d rather it not be there, but it isn’t strong or off-putting, and otherwise, I’m really liking this tea.

Other than the faint bitterness, the black tea goes by pretty unnoticed in this blend as the coconut really dominates. The more I drink it the more I like it.

There’s just something about Peach and Oolong that draws me in every time. It’s like they are perfect for each other! The more of them I try the more of them I like! Since I have had a lot of luck with Boston Tea Company’s Teas lately I am very excited to try this one too!

This is very true to oolong but the peach taste is just right. I will say the aroma is tremendous!

This one gets a thumbs up from me for sure!!!

I didn’t realize I started a new one of the same tea that was already posted…sorry…here is a repost of my earlier review…

This is a good flavored black! The Ginger, Peach, and Apricot are even in smell and taste. I can smell and taste them all and equally. Thumbs up – very tasty!

This doesn’t have much scent but it’s fairly bold in taste for a bagged tea. It’s not drastically bold but I’d say Medium to Medium Strong. Tastes a little lemony but it doesn’t have lemon in the ingredients…hum…

Not bad.

Backlogging from this morning. This is a decent mango flavored black tea. Not overly so but still tasty.

WOW! These ingredients are SUPER SIZED!!!!! Everything is magnified!

Once infused…I can smell the Hibiscus first, then apple, then blood orange.

The color is a pinkish-red.

I can taste hibiscus…blah…but then it changes to Blood Orange. VERY MUCH Blood Orange. Now…I am a blood orange FAN to EAT them…but in tea I wasn’t so sure. I like it paired with black tea but straight up!? Not so much. Whereas this isn’t terrible I don’t know if I would buy it based on my herbal/hibiscus general dislike. BUT…having said that – it DOES taste like Blood Orange so I can’t say it’s anything that it isn’t. I’m trying to keep that in mind while rating.

My rating might change in the future. I am drinking this hot now but would like to try it iced…that might increase my rating a lot but based on hot…I will go with this…

“hearty, strong and flavorful”…this is true!

This is one of the most lovely Ceylon’s I have ever had! It seems to be the strong-silent type. It’s VERY flavorful for a plain Ceylon but it’s also very smooth and ‘laid-back’.

YUMMY.

Phew!

I can’t say as I’m a fan of these ingredients dry! BUT I can smell HONEY, Chamomile, and Citrus…intensely AND since that is what it’s called…I guess one can’t complain! The scent is true to the name of the tisane. You can clearly see ALL of the ingredients.

The post-infusion liquid is much more pleasant to my nose! It’s much more mellow and relaxing. The Chamomile is still in front but that could be because I usually don’t run-right-to chamomile. It’s assisted by the Honey and Lemon scents and those are perfectly scented in my honest opinion.

It’s light to medium ‘see-thru’ brown in color.

The actual taste is pretty nice! It’s floral BUT I think the additional flowers help it so it’s not ALL ABOUT the Chamomile…which I totally appreciate! The Lemon is definitely present and singing! The honey is nice, too! The honey’s sweetness paired with the Rooibos natural sweetness seem to doe-see-doe with each other. There is a slight medicine-E taste underneath but it’s not very loud.

I’m so glad I was able to try this and very glad that I didn’t refrain from trying it based on the dry blend scent. It’s pretty good – considering I don’t usually go for these types. I really think the Rooibos and Lemon made it better for me and my tastes.

This one gets a grin from me!

Yummy like fruit candy. Very nice with both peach and apricot giving a strong showing. The ginger is faint. Uses Chinese black tea and the taste is appropriate, very smooth.
Gonna try blending this half & half with other straight black tea. The fruit flavors are so hearty I suspect a blend will hold up well.

I remembered my best friend had left this tea at my house (since I have a better loose tea maker) and I decided to selfishly brew some for myself while I have the chance.

It seems a little bland, i’m not sure if I let the water get hot enough before steeping. I can taste the green tea, but hardly any of the fruity flavors that I expected. I expected more of a Pineapple flavor, but instead the flower flavor is more potent. From what I am tasting, it’s good, but I would like a stronger taste. Next time I brew this I will have to use either more leaves, or steep for a longer time.
