I made a big 32oz iced tea out of this for my day at work. It was quite nice, a better Earl Grey, for sure. It’s the right amount for flavoring, not too much, and not to little. I like the black tea in this. The last Earl Grey was a little astringent and brisk. This was a lot smoother.

I prefer Earl Grey mixed in chocolate…mmm if you make chocolate truffles, steep some Earl Grey in your cream. It’s quite good!

I really love TG’s herbal teas. They come in cute little paper brown bags. This is my first lemon balm base tea. It’s a lighter tasting tisane, verses the other herbals I have had from them. I think next time I will put more to brew. It’s a grows on you kinda tea. It’s not overly floral, with all the flowers in the blend. They are definitely in the background. The mint isn’t overpowering, very mellow and balanced.

This tea screams SPRINGTIME!
I am really liking this iced.

I kind of wished I didn’t dump my whole sample to make iced tea! This would of been amazing warm with some cream! Anyways, being iced, it’s naturally honey sweet and yummy. The dry leaf has such a big pungent honey smell. I didn’t get much pear, which is a shame. I bet this would be tasty brewed in pear juice. There’s a little pear in the background, though. And when I burped! :) I bet this tea would be awesome in sweet tea, too.

It didn’t rebrew again, it was pretty weak, but drinkable.

This makes a tasty iced tea. I love the tea base in it, the green comes out quite nicely. The flavoring blend is a nice balance with mint. I would of liked more vanilla. I resteeped it only once, and it stood it up quite nicely, no vanilla though.

Roasty toasty goodness. Anyone who has roasted nuts in the oven, this tea has that taste. I got this iced at my local TG shop. A little sencha astringency. I think this is as good as SpecialTea’s genmaicha, but not as good as Den’s, which I think is truly the best.

Very nice strong flavored tea.

I usually hate English Breakfast, more of an Irish Breakfast fan. I always find it too astringent and bossy in my taste buds.

This is the best English Breakfast I’ve had, even though I am not a fan of the style. It’s smooth, brisk, and strong.

This is some bright green dry leaf. This sencha was great with the sushi I was eating. Lightly grassy, no astringency. It has a nice aftertaste.

This tea nicely resteeps 2-3 times. I can’t remember how many times I did it. I loved the 2nd resteep. I am fairly satisfied with this tea. I wouldn’t buy it, but it’s a likable sencha.

This is pretty good bottle tea verses others in your average 7-11. Nothing will beat fresh brewed tea. It’s like comparing boxed cookies to mom’s fresh under baked, soft, warm cookies. I used to drink this more. It’s a-okay for a convenience item, though I can’t honestly remember the last time I drank it!

I went here when I was on travel for work. There was a menu for it at the hotel, and it sounded good. What I had to eat wasn’t good at all, but this isn’t yelp! so I won’t go onto that part much. But what about the tea?

It was refreshing, but very lacking. I like a longer brew, and this didn’t have it. Shame shame. Are they sure it’s world famous? Maybe it was an off day? Maybe the worker hasn’t grasped the art of sweet tea making. (It is an art!)

This is a Northerner’s take on a Southerner’s specialty. I need a traveling teapot so I can just make my own! If you are ever in Atlanta, and want some great sweet tea, go to Folks. Their tea is just perfection…

Eh. That’s all I can say about this tea. I bought it twice. I can taste the preservative in it, I think that’s what the aftertaste was. My mom’s gross WalMart brand sweet tea actually taste better. If you love sweet tea, just pass on this, you’ll be letdown.

I followed the recipe that was floating about on the reviews. I really love that, and will ue it for some other chai tea I have around! For those who been there before, map out an experience for the rest of us. I appreciate that! It really brings out the best of the tea.

Now with the tea, I am very picky about chai tea. I like them STRONG. And this tea did stand up. I even prefer MORE spice and bite, maybe some more ginger. But still nice, and perfect on a California dreaming on such a winter’s day.

Looks like a white, smells like a white, tastes like a white. The tea I got looks different from laurenpressley’s pictures. They are longer leaves twisted and no fuzz.

I do get a little minty feel at the end of a sip, more of the sensation of mint than flavor. Interesting. It’s a very light tea.

My review would of leaned towards why this tea wasn’t for me, but then when it cooled down, it opened up. I really need to stop judging so quick! I don’t think I would buy, but it’s a likable tea. Very shy in flavor, just be patient for she’ll be flirting with your taste buds in no time!

I forgot I had this tea…problem with having soo many teas! I forgot how wonderful this tea is. Great on a cold winter night!

I got an early Christmas gift to myself, and bought the sampler. This tea I was looking forward to, and boy, it isn’t a letdown! I see where you the others taste cream soda, that’s a perfect item to compare it to.

It’s smartly blended, vanilla and jasmine are in right strengths. Drank it iced, it was perfection. I think this is the best jasmine tea I’ve had yet. I love real vanilla, and this is it! Very nice and delightful! This is definitely on my shopping list.

Thank you LiberTEAS for an awesome sample of this! This is a real mild Earl Grey. It was perfect I think, nothing overpowering. It is just right! I really appreciate it. I am picky when a tea is flavored. It can be a small window of what’s too little or too much. Really nice black tea in it too.

I absolutely love it iced! Really enjoyable.

I am new to the oolong world,and I am loving it! This is my first experience with Big Red Robe. It’s a blacker oolong with a looong after taste. Chestnut and hazelnut like. Roasted pungency.

It’s interesting its claim is this tea “heals stomach ailments”. I had the tea with a greasy gyro. Usually, I have a little upset stomach but nothing. No tums needed! There might be something to this claim.

At first sip, I didn’t know what to think. After my second brew, I became a fan. It needs to win you over.

I get gift cards to here. I wouldn’t exactly go out of my way to order from here otherwise. But I love this drink, with the black tea. I will try the passion tea with it next time. I have had passion tea on its own, and wasn’t much a fan.

Even though I prefer my own Arnold Palmer (made with fresh limeade), but this is good!

I saw my local grocery store carried this. I knew I had to pick one up. Madison’s review goes along the lines of how I feel about this tea. There is coconut in this tea, but it’s the young coconut flavor, which I am not a fan. I drank the bottle. It was not what I thought it would be.

I like Honest Tea bottled, but this? Nah, I’ll pass.

A friend sent this to me after I sent her a sizable package of teas. I seriously had to clean my tea cupboard, and I was rewarded very nicely with this tea. It was a little buttery to me, and that’s such a good thing. I am onto my 4th rebrew.

I really liked trying this as a sample at the store, I just didn’t want to buy it since the the sales lady was watching me like a hawk from each place I took a sample. I might take the advice from others and try this tea from another provider, since it’s on the expensive side. Aside from that, still a nice oolong. I am new in the world of oolongs, but I really like this kind.

Very simple green tea. I swapped for this tea from loupea. Would be nice iced. Pineapple is slight. It was ok hot, but iced would probably suit this tea.

I finally found this tea I got from a swap with loupea. I brought this to work, and it was mellow and rich. This is some dark tea, too. Once it cooled a little, it becomes tastier. I would consider buying this for work, excellent bagged tea. I really enjoyed this tea.

Not going to lie, I bought this tea for the name. I love me some Prince! When I bought and smelled it at the store, I didn’t realize it was grape. I read the ingreidents, and thought it sounded good. If I knew it was suppose to be grape, I probably wouldn’t have bought it.

Anyways, I tried it iced. Before I sipped it, I could taste grape! I was hoping for the other dried fruit to come out, but it didn’t. It is naturally sweet, no sugar needed for this one. I did like the sencha in this, too, like Sarah. If the flavoring wasn’t grape, but cranberry or raspberry, I would love this tea. Being grape, it’s just ok. If you love Concord grape, this tea has it!

Summertime! That’s what this tea is perfect for. I am surprised by how tasty this is. I often had it as a sample at the store. My friend sent me some. It’s mixed with Lemon Youku. I added a little sugar, drank it iced…real blissful. I bet it would be equally good warm, though it’s perfect iced. I loved the raspberry flavor, tasted creamy to me.

I just figured out, from googling the ingredients of the tea, that this is White Acai Luminesence by SpecialTeas. http://steepster.com/teas/specialteas/10638-white-acai-luminesence?post=68442

I still love this tea…even though SpecialTeas has decided to go and leave me.
