MatéVana Herbal Tea from Teavana
67

This sample came to me from Tea Equals Bliss – thanks so much for letting me try it.

I was definitely feeling like I needed something to wake me up this morning. I would say this tisane is lightly nutty and chocolatey but the flavor seems a bit thin to me somehow. I used the entire sample which must have been at least 1 tsb. in a 16 oz. teapot. This was a little bit better after I added some soymilk and sugar to it. It smells a lot better than it tastes. It needs something, I am not sure what.

I’m not overly impressed by this, it’s okay but not something I feel the need to buy. Thank you for the sample, Tea=B

I’ve always mixed it with Teavana’s Aztec Fire…a chocolate type tea.

Bio

My profile pic is of a pink dahlia at Golden Gate Park.

Hobbies include: tea, making art, animals, vegan things, buddhism, nature, creativity, books, writing, cooking, meditation, yoga.

I am a fan of many different teas but my favorites are blacks and oolongs, also like darjeeling and pu-erh. I’n always learning and expanding my horizons!

Dislikes include: bergamot, jasmine, highly tannic or bitter teas, overly judgmental and bitter people. :)

Live in San Francisco, I’m a SINK (single income, no kids) and love the urban life, but traveling out to the middle of nowhere is always fun too.

I tend to not drink things I know I will hate so a lot of my tea ratings are on the higher side. Here’s my rating system, sorta

95-100 I love this tea and would like to keep it around

94-90 An excellent tea which I may or may not repurchase

89-80 Pretty good, above average

79-70 Acceptable

69-60 Mundane – Will probably drink it if I have it

59-50 Ick

49 and below Nasty
