I really really love this tea- the lemongrass can be pretty strong sometimes, but i made this iced and it was just delicious til the last drop!
i used to not like this tea at all when i first got this set. But it has grown on me. It’s a good cup of tea for a monday morning ( isn’t any tea a good cup on mondays though??). It is a ittle drying in the back of my throat but that could also be because I am fighting getting a cold.
this was my last cup of yunnan noir=[ i have to order from adagio soon… really soon.
yum yum. one of my favorite teas- unfortunately i am down to my last few cups of this :( will have to reorder really soon!

Wow, this is a really great tea. I am so glad to have gotten my hands on it! It isn’t as strong as other yunnan provence teas i’ve had. But because of that , I think it is perfect. It isn’t so strong that it will turn you off after one cup, instead the leaves keep bringing you back for more and more. It is smooth, flavorful, a bit earthy, a bit sweet and a lot of yumminess :)
nutty, grassy, vegetal and sweet, all in the same cup.
malty, strong black tea flavor. your typical black tea. though, it is making me feel really jittery and anxious- like i do when i have coffee. how strange.
giving this a low rating for the coffee-nervous feeling =[. I’m not a fan of feeling jittery.

really strong scent of cocoa. earthy flavor with cocoa afternotes. A really good smooth cup of tea for the price. :)
malty,robust flavors and not bitter at all :)
not too bad. i bought this on a whim because i ran out of matcha! =[ I added this to some fresh lemonade for a delicious mid afternoon drink :)
light.crisp, a bit orange-y and refreshing. Perfect for that mid afternoon crash.
very nutty, grassy with a hint of sweetness. a really comforting cup to drink on a morning when it is icing and snowing out.
i don’t have too much loose leaf tea left, i haven’t gotten around to buying it yet =[ and this is one of the only ones i have left. but as always, it’s a delicious cuppa!
really really floral tea. but floral in a good way. The scent of jasmine hits you in the face when you open the tin, but after having a few sips of the tea, that ‘in your face’ jasmine quality calms down and nicely pairs with the green tea.
i had a bit of an oven mishap this morning while baking a raspberry chocolate ganache tart (smoke alarm went off 3 times, ahh! ) so this tea is exactly what i needed to get my head back in the game. Dark, cocoa-y, and pleasantly earthy makes for a good cuppa this afternoon.
I was having a bad day and this tea really perked my mood up. I’m not sure if it’s because I really really enjoyed the tea( which i did!) or if the action of drinking tea just makes me happier.
This tea’s aroma both brewed and before brewing was very vanilla-y, and I love any and everything vanilla, so I was really looking forward to tasting it. The bergamot oil and vanilla really compliment each other perfectly. The black tea laced with the bergamot and vanilla really brews the perfect cuppa for mid afternoon.
This tea is okay. I think that for the price , it is a pretty good tea. The first steep is fruity, sweet and just a great tea to start the morning off with. I even put it in a latte cup and frothed some milk to put on top ;]
I over steeped this tea by about a minute but it did not get bitter at all. The flavor is light and crisp. I can’t really taste too much mandarin in the flavor, but overall I really like this tea. It’s a good tea if you are looking for something that isn’t too overbearing with flavor and heaviness.
