Strange VariaTEA TTB #36

I pulled a bag of this out of the TTB to sample later and finally got around to it at work this week. I don’t have a temperature-controlled kettle at the office, so the water may have been too hot (though I did let it cool for at least 20 minutes after boiling). Not sure I would have loved this even if I’d brewed it with more care, though. It didn’t have much of a scent and the flavor was also fairly nondescript…a little grassy, a little fruity, but nothing that specifically screams “pomegranate”. Drinkable but forgettable!

Flavors: Fruity, Grass

Strange VariaTEA TTB – Tea #5

Thought I would give this one a try, because a fruity green sounded good.

It’s decent. The base is fairly grassy but I don’t mind that. The flavoring is a bit nondescript to me, I think I could probably pull out cranberry perhaps, but otherwise it just tastes somewhere between berry and red fruits. And there is a bit of that chalkiness that I often get from berry flavoring, unfortunately.

Still a pleasant cuppa to sip on while watching tea videos, but I think I’ll leave the rest of it in the box.

Result: Tried

Flavors: Berry, Chalk, Cranberry, Dry Grass, Grass, Red Fruits, Sweet

Preparation

drank Hibiscus Spice by Allegro Tea
241 tasting notes

I’ve had this tea for a bit. I believe I picked it up at the Christmas Tree Shoppe. I learned today that this tea company is owned by Whole Foods which is owned by Amazon. The tea bag I have has a defunct website listed on it, which led to me searching the internet. I also learned that this tea “helps lower blood pressure”.
This is not my first cup but I keep trying it because I have a belief that I “should” like this tea. The ingredients are all things I like and I love the color and scent. But I think if I’m honest, I don’t care for it and that’s why its still lingering here. It’s mildly tart with a hint of spice. I kind of wish the spice was less subtle. I think it might work well for an iced tea or cold brew for the summer.

Flavors: Hibiscus, Tart

Preparation
Boiling 6 min, 0 sec

I’ve got a whole lineup of those “keep trying” teas, myself.

I tried a sample of this from a TTB, and it’s pretty excellent. The black tea is so malty and lovely. Adding milk makes it into such a smooth cup. This has everything I love in a plain black tea. I should have saved some more, but I’ve already mailed the box to the next person – oh well!

It’s been years since I tried a Banaspaty (probably from Upton), but it’s really bringing back good sensory memories!

To be honest, I’ve never paid attention to tea regions or anything like that before, but I’ll definitely be watching for some more like this one!

A bit on the boring side, but very smooth and easy to drink.

Sipdown (613)!

Two tea bags, cold brewed overnight then mixed with chia this morning for a morning cold brew with some extra protein. This wasn’t actually bad; I have a gut feeling that cold brewing probably produced a better and smoother flavour than this tea would have ever been capable of as a hot tea. It reminded me a lot of DT’s Green Seduction blend; same sort of sweet pomegranate note with a bit more of a grassy, sharper green edge to it. Worked very well with the chia though and was quite refreshing.

drank Happy Tummy by Allegro Tea

This was a really fresh, clean, well balanced tisane with a zippy mouthfeel. I’m not too keen on mixing cinnamon and mint and prefer if the mint is the dominating note. I think it’s done well here and will appeal to a lot of people but the cinnamon is still too dominant for me.

Fragrant and has good flavor. While the petals were supposedly mixed with the tea leaves, it did not have a bitter taste at all. good nighttime tea in my opinion
