4 Tasting Notes

Moroccan Mint from The Republic of Tea
82

I don’t drink it very often, but when I do I really enjoy it. Goes way back to before I really started drinking tea, and I had this at a friend’s place. So there’s a part of my brain that always associates it with Middle Sunday at Steve & Paula’s. Nice mix of flavors. (Often good during a cold.) Occasionally add sugar, but plain is also good.

English Breakfast from Stash Tea Company
61

A reasonable basic tea, good with diner-type breakfasts. I always take it with sugar/half & half. Do not oversteep! (I’m tempted to try two bags as recommended by several reviewers.)

Chai Spice from Stash Tea Company
53

Decent but not awesome. What I drink if the Good Earth Chai isn’t on sale. (Definitely don’t steep as long as that one.) Sugar/half & half.

Chai from Good Earth Teas

I really like this one at home, where I can get the water boiling and leave it to steep for a long time. (Sometimes I go do housework and come back as much as 8-10 mins later, almost always good that way.) In those conditions, great spicy flavor. Always have with sugar and half & half.

Unfortunately, it always just falls flat at work – not sure if it’s the not-boiling water or the shorter length of time I usually steep, but it’s just not that good.
