15 Tasting Notes

Red Mellow Bush Rooibos from Numi Organic Tea
25

I steeped for 6 minutes. It’s not a very strong rooibos. It doesn’t have the rich flavor that so many do.

Assorted Melange from Numi Organic Tea
75

I had the Aged Earl Grey: Fair Trade Certified™, Certified Organic Italian Bergamot Black Tea. Steeping for 3 minutes (3-5 recommended) produced a perfect cup of tea. I’m not typically an Earl Grey drinker. It is usually too bitter for my tastes. This cup was delightful. The bergamot was not too strong.

Today I had the Golden Chai. I steeped it for 4 minutes (recommended 3-5). This is not a strong chai by any means. I like my chai to be very strong, so that when milk is added, it becomes a creamy spicy tea. This was not like that at all. Nice flavor, but too weak for my tastes.

English Breakfast from Twinings
75
Soothing Chamomile from Bija

I steeped for 4 minutes, as instructed by the packaging. It has a somewhat nutty flavor, but not a strong chamomile flavor. I’m not excited about this tea, but will give it another go before settling on an opinion.

Mate Lemon from Numi Organic Tea
75

Refreshing flavor. The lemon is the perfect blend with this green tea.

Chinese Breakfast Yunnan Black Tea from Numi Organic Tea
75

This may replace my English Breakfast as my morning tea. I steeped it for 3 minutes, and it is the perfect gentle cup of tea for the morning. No aftertaste, no bitterness, just a lovely balance of black tea and orange pekoe.

Chamomile Lemon Myrtle from Numi Organic Tea
75

I had this last night before bed. It was the perfect relaxer. Even though I oversteeped it (12 minutes versus the 4-6 recommended), there was no aftertaste, and the flavor was wonderful. The mixture of lemon and chamomile was the most relaxing end to the day.

Acai Mango Zinger from Celestial Seasonings
75

I have to be in the right mood to drink this. I do like it before bed since it is non-caffeinated.

Ginger Peach (Green) from The Republic of Tea
75

Recommended brewing time is 1-3 minutes. I typically steep for about a minute or so, and it is strong enough. It has a subtle peach scent. The peach is less noticeable as I drink it, with the ginger coming in a bit more (but still subtle). It is very much a green tea.

Given to me as a gift, it has become a favorite.

Ginger from Yogi Tea
75

I steep for about 3-4 minutes. I like this tea for the digestive properties, as well. It sooths upset stomachs. The flavor is not an overwhelming ginger, but it is important that you do like ginger to begin with.

Organic Rooibos Tea from Equal Exchange
75
Orange and Spice Herb Tea from Bigelow
75

Steeped for 3 minutes. A light orange that is refreshing, but also a perfect way to end the day.
