I’m not sure what kind of green tea this is. The flavor is mild and woody. The smell is floral. I prefer Japanese teas like matcha, genmaicha, sencha, and hojicha. I believe this one is Chinese, but it does not taste like other Chinese teas I have had before (at Chinese restaurants mostly). Not bad, but not something I think I will crave.

Smelled good out of the box. Once brewed, the flavor was very lacking. In reading the other reviews, I wonder if I got a bad batch or something. I will try another cup, but I don’t have high expectations.

This is nice. It has a pleasant flavor to it, although it isn’t a distinct pomegranate flavor at first, it does develop as I continue to sip. By mid-cup, I feel that tart tingle at the tip of the tongue! Sweet and tart and tasty!

Nice underlying spicyness against the black tea with subtle peach notes. To get the ginger spice you must steep for 4 minutes:)

Nice peach flavor. I am not getting the ginger kick that I would like.
I have varied the water temp in an attempt to find the ginger, but alas I fear that Ginger has left the teabag.
Overall a nice peach flavored tea in the convenience of a tea bag. No astringency which is my number one criteria for a tea.

I like this one a lot! It is a surprise that this much flavor comes from a tea bag. The pomegranate tastes true (not artificial), and sweet-tart, but the delicate flavor of the white tea also shines through.

Nice!

This is a pleasant black tea with a strong ginger-y presence. The first sip was rather surprising – the ginger hits the back of the palate with a wallop! It’s a good thing I like ginger!

After that first sip though, I find that the ginger is not overwhelming, just strong, but it evens out and softens significantly as I continue to sip. The black tea is solid and there is a very lovely sweetness from the peach that comes through in the aftertaste.

Yummy!

Strong Rooibos flavor. Would have been nice with a bit more almond flavor.

I’m having a hot cup of this tea tonight. It’s a simple green tea with the slightest hint of sweet blueberry. This tea is very sensitive to being over-steeped and can be bitter even under a watchful eye.

A pleasant Mango flavor here, the green tea is slightly grassy but not bitter tasting. It has a strong astringency though that is somewhat starchy. Not bothersome to me though.

Sweet and yummy.

Brews REALLY dark but doesn’t smell or taste like Chai. Kind of tastes like muddy water.

The dry tea smells of dried apricots, a very sweet fruity smell.
The aroma of the tea is very pleasing, a strong and fragrant fruit smell, almost creamy, like a peach pie.
The tea itself is slightly bitter, and the fruit flavor is strong but not overpowering.
A little sugar cuts the bitterness and one notices the fruit more.
It is also nice with a little cream, and would make a fine iced tea!

Just came home from my daughter’s dance class, and I’m unwinding with a cup of this. The flavor is light and refreshing. Sweet blueberry does not overwhelm the white tea taste. Uplifting!

so-so. mild black flavored even more mildly with Raspberry. Tastes ok but very mellow.

Inadvertantly deleted this favorite from my Steepster cupboard. Ooops! Still takes me to a happy place!

Nothing fancy. But it makes takes me to a happy place.

A bit astringent as to be expected from green tea, and earthy from the mango.

ehhhh, ah…ok…generic in every way. Not bad tasting just not good per say…

Thanks to FrenchVanilla for this sample!

I didn’t think this was gross (like the other 2 tasting notes placed for this tea) but I didn’t find it wonderful either. The black tea taste was VERY faint. There wasn’t any spice flavor and I could taste a little of the orange flavoring but not really enough to say so.

I’m grateful I got to try but I would never buy.

This is a really tasty cuppa! The fruit flavors are strong but don’t overpower the green tea which tastes light and buttery. Very little astringency to the cup. A nice sweet taste without being too sweet.

In my Christmas box….not bad.

Got this in a box of tea for Christmas….it is not bad. Especially with a splash of almond milk.

It isn’t often that I come across a Jasmine tea that I really dislike, but this is one of those times. This just isn’t working for me at all. The jasmine is overwhelmingly strong to the point of smelling and tasting like soap. I don’t think I can finish the cup.

Thanks LauraR!

Backlogging again!

My last bag. The taste was mostly rooibos with hints of orange. The cranberry isn’t really there, except in the aftertaste, so not much different from last time. I let this cool quite a bit as I forgot about it mid-cup, but when i came back to it, it wasn’t that bad. The orange taste was more pronounced, as was the cranbery, but the cranberry stayed in the aftertaste.
