4 Tasting Notes

Kamiya Papaya from Teavana
Assam Breeze Black Tea from Teavana
83

This is a very flavorful black tea. The smell and flavor are very tropical in nature with hints of pineapple, coconut and citrus peel. Add a bit of ginger spice to the mix and you got yourself one of the best black teas that I have tried so far. I definitely recommend this tea as well as Teavana to everyone.

Black Currant from Argo Tea
84

I am a fan of black teas (mostly because they are a wonderful morning replacement for coffee) but I was surprised when I tried this at work recently. For a black tea the aroma and taste are very sweet. I didn’t think the leaves were too small, in fact they are on par with any other Argo tea as far as leaf size goes.

Carolina Honey from Argo Tea
75

This is a loose leaf tea you can buy from Argo. It is a very strong black tea with a nice honey aroma too it. There are hints of lemon which I only noticed after the steeping process. It is a great tea to have in the morning as a coffee replacement, especially if you are nursing a cold.

On tip is to make sure you do not let this tea steep for too long or it will start to get bitter very quickly. Anything more than 4 min on boiling is being adventurous. After trial and error I personally prefer about 3.5 min.
