I received this in a swap from hapatite. Thank you!

This is not what I was expecting. This tea was very similar to hot cinnamon spice form Harney and Sons. It had the sweet cinnamon in in that I use to love. Unfortunately that sweet cinnamon now throws me for a bit of a loop. I am thankful for the chance to try this one, but it is not for me.

This is one of the teas that MissB included in the mystery pack. Thank you.

I asked MissB if she could throw in a french tea or two and she spoiled me with quite a few. Thank you. I have yet to determine what it is about the few french teas that I have tried. I seem to love them all. This one I am now adding to that list. The base blends so well with the flavors and no one flavor stands out. I will have to sip on this again to determine each individual flavor. I definitely got the citrus and the but the others blended together to make a wonderful afternoon work tea. This one will stay on my wish list in hopes that some day I will be graced with the opportunity to have more:) Thank you MissB

I received this from the box I purchased from LiberTEAS. Thank you for including this one.

I am still in the early stages of pur-eh exploration. I determined tonight that I think I should do two rinses instead of just the one. I don’t really seem to start enjoying the tea until the second or third infusion. This is very mellow. It is tad bit tangy, but a little less so than the other raw pu-erh I had. I have no idea how to describe the flavors I am getting at the moment. This is enjoyable, not something I think I would go running back to. I have enough leaf for one more session so I will give it one more go. I am glad I got to try this one.

This is my last of the sample pack from Just Organic. Thank you.

I think tulsi and I are just not meant to be. As much as I really really want to like this because I love holy basil in my food, in my tea, it is just too much for me. When I do herbals in the evening I want something calming and not over powering. This has enough of a bight in it that it over takes my mouth. I am grateful for the opportunity to try this, but this one is not my cup of tea.

I receieved a sample of this from Just Organic. Thank you.

I am not sure what to make of this one. It has lemon, it has a hint of mint, it has a solid base, and then there is this kick of pepper/spice at the end of the sip. It is a nice calming evening cup. I could see drinking this when I am sick, but I am not sure this would be something I would run to. All of the components of the tea seem to be nicely balanced. Thank you for allowing me to try this one.

I haven’t spent a lot of time with straight white teas. I have had a few here and there. This was a nice light slightly floral cup. Like some of the other white tea I have at home I would up the leaf to bring out more of the flavor. I enjoyed this cup. Thank you.

Green tea scares me. I have had way too many bitter cups of green tea that was suppose to be really good that makes me scared to brew up a cup for fear I might have to dump it down the drain. This cup, was awesome. It was everything I hope for in a green cup of tea. This was light, but packed a taste punch, it was not bitter, and it was almost sweet. This is a little sweeter than other green teas I have had, and not as buttery. This was a solid green tea. I am really glad I pulled this one out tonight. Thank you!

This was the last of the three black Lupicia blends she sent. I have to say that this was my favorite. I also decreased the steep time quite a bit which bade the base not so in your face. It was a great tropical fruit tea. I enjoyed this both hot and cold today at work. Thanks again for sharing these special Hawaii teas with me hapatite

I received a sample of this from KiwiDelight. Thank you!

The reviews of this tea were not that great, and I have to be honest I also wasn’t a huge fan. The base was very light and did not support the off tasting bergamot. I am grateful for the chance to try another EG, bu this one wasn’t my favorite.

This was the second of three Hawaii addition teas that hapatite sent me. This was pretty tasty. My biggest complaint is the base. It is a tad on the astringent side for me. I think on the last of the 3 teas I will try a shorter steep time to see if this helps. This seemed like it would have been a great iced tea. It was very fragrant and fruity. It was a nice afternoon cup on this sunny day.
