20 Tasting Notes

Green Tea with Jasmine Flowers from Dilmah
77

Very pleasant smell, maybe a bit too strong on the Jasmine side. Nice color, a bit light in color, but a very slightly sweeter taste for a green in my opinion.

Yerba Mate Latte from The Republic of Tea
88

Reminded me of a Mocha/Latte, but watered down. Very aromatic, rich color, and pleasant taste, Good way to fool the coffee club that your in.

Gen Mai Cha from SerendipiTea
49

First thought when drinking this, Horseradish and Chinese Mustard. Odd taste, cant say I favor it, but it was something that was oddly pleasing, something different then that dirty water they call coffee. Will have to try again sometime.

Kehelwela Broken Orange Pekoe Special from Dilmah
61

Very aromatic, slight hint of a yerba I had a few days back. Flavors not too strong, in fact barely noticeable unless you over brew it. Nice color however.

Apple Cinnamon from Stash Tea Company
68

Reminds of Apple Cider, just not as sweet, which is always a good thing. A little too much Hibiscus however, and then cinnamon, while Im not a huge fan, is just subtle enough to make me want to have another cup or two. Great color to it as well, and tastes great by itself, truly a lone warrior.

Yerba Mate from SerendipiTea
62

First Yerba Mate Ive had so not sure what to say about it, I will say this, it is definetly a different taste, close to a Black Tea but somewhere more near an Earl Grey, or so I would think, with my little experience with it. The Local Tea House, Manzanita News and Espresso has quite the variety of bagged and loose leaf teas, so I will have to try some of each. Overall I liked the Yerba Mate, didnt know what to expect though, so I will write a better review later.

Earl Grey from Xanadu Fine Teas
62

Probably one of the better Earl Greys I’ve had, its not too strong but enough to say “Hey Im here inside your water”. Nice smell too. Again I drink my tea plain, so it might be better with some milk, or a bit of creme.

White Ambrosia from Tea Forte
3

I drink my tea straight, no milk, no sugar, no honey, and this was a bit too much for me, the coconut was a tad bit over powering, if I had wanted a pinata colada I would have went to a bar.

Flora from Tea Forte
39

As Im not a fan of cinnamon teas, my review should be regarded as having a predisposition, but I really didnt care that much for this one in general, just wasnt for me.

Citrus Mint from Tea Forte
83

I love this tea, its sooo good, especially on a cold night after boredom has set in, and all you have to do is talk to people on facebook. The mint is an excellent combo with the citrus, the aroma is very nice.

Earl Grey from Tea Forte
68

Great flavor, great over all, if not the best bagged tea that Ive had, although I prefer Twinnings Lady Grey, as I am not really a fan of Earl Grey.

Decaf Vanilla Chai from Stash Tea Company
59

Not comparable to Oregon Chai, I prefer a Spicy Chai, rather then a Sweet Chai. Flavors a bit lacking, but over all a good experience. The subtle hint of vanilla is a nice addiction to the spices in their Chai Blend. Colors a bit darker then I thought it would have been.

Lady Grey from Twinings
70

Rather enjoy this Grey, never been much of a fan of the Grey family, but this has a very distinct flavor.

Ginger Twist from Lipton
66

Has a nice tanginess to it, I enjoy the bite.

Quietly Chamomile from Lipton
73

I really enjoy this tea, very good with a bit of honey in it, nice to just sit back with a book and read while sipping on a cup.

Peach from Lipton
58

Very delicious, smells great, tastes good, has a nice color too it too.

Cinnamon Apple from Lipton
62

Not a bad flavor at all, reminds me of Apple Cider, very good, but rather seasonal. The cinnamon is tiny bit too much, as it dries your mouth out very subtly, but overall its rather good.

Lemon from Lipton
39

Nothing really too noticeable about it, basically you could dehydrate lemon peels and steep them, and youd get the same taste.

Peppermint from Celestial Seasonings
80

Good blend of peppermint, not to over powering, but still noticeable, easily drinkable without honey.

Mint Medley (Herb Tea) from Bigelow
68

Almost a bit to minty, for my taste at least, but enjoyable.
