8 Tasting Notes

Kaanapali from American Tea Room

I was very skeptical about this one, just because of the licorice root. Fortunately, the ginger and pineapple make it perfectly spicy and sweet. I really didn’t think I was going to like Kaanapali, but wow!

Coconut Oolong from American Tea Room
84

I chose this as a good intro to oolong, and it is so delicious. By itself or with a shot of coconut milk, it has a perfectly authentic coconut flavor that is a great complement to the oolong.

Aged Earl Grey from Numi Organic Tea
87

my favorite! i love this brewed a little strong and served over ice. my very favorite “everyday” iced tea.

Chocolate Puerh from Numi Organic Tea
85

I am a Numi fan, but a newbie to pu erh. I was sent a box of the Chocolate Pu-Erh to review and it was an excellent intro to pu erh tea and its health benefits. I enjoy this tea at night as a dessert treat, and love putting in a bit of cream or milk to make it more of a dessert. It’s a great way to get your chocolate fix with a little bit of a kick.

Sweet Rose Tulsi Tea from Organic India
78

this is my first tulsi, but i do think that it is very tasty. I don’t mind the “herbiness,” and the rose is lovely. I’ve only had it hot, but I think it would be great iced. It really does feel like it has some stress-busting benefits, so I should be drinking more!

Youthberry Wild Orange Blossom Tea Blend from Teavana
89

I apparently suck as a tea aficionado because my rating for this tea is significantly higher. I brewed it for iced tea, as it’s a THOUSAND in Texas right now. It is super refreshing, and everyone in the house enjoyed it. We brewed it in our Teavana iced tea pitcher and it made a perfect drink that was gone in just over 24 hours.

Lemon Drop from California Tea House
83

Love this tea! Iced or hot, the citrus is delicious and the flowers are lovely.

Thé du Hammam from Le Palais des Thes
82

Very light, crisp, and refreshing. I really enjoy this tea iced. The green tea is great for people who aren’t necessarily big fans of the tea’s more verdant varieties. Love the flowers!
