16 Tasting Notes

Blueberry Bliss from Teavana
98

I tried this tea in the store (it was sweetened with German Rock Sugar) and it practically tasted like juice. It was really good and I would be interested in trying it without any sweetener.

Earl Grey Creme from Teavana
98

This tea is pretty amazing and, as the name suggests, it has a creme flavor to it. It is really good.

Crimson Blossom Green Tea from Trader Joe's

I didn’t particularly like the taste of this tea because something about it reminded me of cough syrup. I really wanted this to be good, but I wasn’t quite pleased with it. I will try it again and see if I get the same results.

Jasmine Green Tea from Trader Joe's
97
Superfruit Red Goji & Raspberry from Lipton
95

Just like all of the other Superfruit teas. They have a nice variety but nothing comes close to the Black Currant and Vanilla.

Purple Açai and Blueberry Green Tea Superfruit from Lipton
92

Not quite as good as Lipton’s Superfruit Green Tea Black Currant and Vanilla, but it is pretty good. I drink this a lot.

Awake- Filterbag from Tazo
84
Wild Sweet Orange from Tazo
38

I can’t drink this tea. It smells wonderful being made, but it just doesn’t work so well in my mouth. I haven’t tried it with a sweetener yet, but I don’t really want to.

Tazo Rest Herbal Infusion from Tazo
71

I really, really wanted to like this tea, but I have a hard time getting it down. I love how it smells and I love the idea of it, but something about the after taste just isn’t quite right.

100% Natural Decaffeinated Honey Lemon Green from Lipton
98

Nice easy way to get a refreshing tea without fear of too much caffeine. Excellent for bed time.

100% Natural Decaffeinated Honey Lemon Green from Lipton
98
Organic Echinacea Plus from Traditional Medicinals
96

This tea tastes pretty good and I will start to drink it to boost my immune system once I notice co-workers getting sick.

Gypsy Cold Care from Traditional Medicinals
88

Like Throat Coat, this is a tea that I would only use while sick. It taste decent and seems to help, which is a nice comfort.

Organic Throat Coat from Traditional Medicinals
78

I wouldn’t drink this tea everyday, but when you have a terrible sore throat it is life saver. Be sure to follow the directions on the back and use some honey to increase the benefits. Using honey also made the taste easier to transition to, but now that I know what to expect, I wouldn’t feel like I absolutely had to use honey.

Citrus Lavender Sage from Teavana
95

This tea is pretty darn spectacular. I have not tried it hot (my husband said it was wonderful and he is not a fan of herbal teas at all), but it is wonderful iced. I love anything lavender flavored. At the particular Teavana I went to (the one in Water Tower Place in Chicago), the sales associate informed me that this was her favorite tea and that each reuse of the tea brought out multiple flavors. I think she said the first steep was mostly citrus, the second steep contained more lavender flavors, and with the third steep the sage was the most prevalent. I am only on my first try, but it is wonderful

Vanilla and Black Currant from Lipton
100

This tea is what got me hooked on drinking tea without any kind of sweetener. It is sweet and clean tasting. I love it iced.

Profile

Bio

I am decently new to tea and enjoy a wide variety of types. I mainly like unsweetened iced teas, but I am working towards enjoying hot teas without cream or sugar (although it tastes so yummy). I like any kind of tea, really and am always looking for more things to try. My tea chest is overflowing with the wide variety of cheaper teas that I have bought.
