140 Tasting Notes

Plum Crazy from Joy's Teaspoon
93

What can you say about this one that hasn’t already been said. It looks to be a steepster fav!

Perfect for the ride home. . . .Yum-Plums- Yum-Black Tea- Just Yum! Mingles nicely! I feel a Joy’s Teaspoon order coming. . . .

The Jane Austen Mafia from Adagio Teas
100

Giving myself some loving on this Valentine’s Day- This has to be one of my Favorites.

Blackberries and Vanilla and Cream. . . .Doesn’t get much better!

Happy Valentine’s Day everyone!!

Ginger Ale Bai Mu Dan from 52teas
89

Ok, here goes on this one. .. .

Its good, really good! But I cant place the flavors at all. It doesn’t really taste like Ginger Ale to me, but it does have notes of ginger in it. .But since its a white tea, I’m enjoying it regardless. . .

Almost reminds me of a gin and tonic without the carbonation. .

Yum!

Pomegranate Honeybush from 52teas
92

Another sample from 52 teas.

Oh Yum. Finally my taste buds are back!

This one is delish! Very good. Almost like bubblegum. . .perfect for that sweet treat in the afternoon. Yumm!!

Ultimate Citrus Spice Flavored Black from 52teas
67

Just rec’d this as a sample in my order and I’m just not sure about it. I really can’t decide whether I like it or not. . .From the other reviews on this one, I think I agree that the spices kind of throw you a bit. . its still good and I’m really glad I was able to try it. . .

But I think its time to try the next one. . . .Ginger Ale!

Monkey Fart from 52teas

Maybe its just my taste buds being off today, who knows, but I didn’t feel the love with this one like everybody else did. So, I’m going to hold off a few days and try again then rate it. . It does smell soo very good. Here’s to trying again next week!

Tiramisu Rooibos from Sanctuary T
87

Pretty tastey! You can def tell what its suppose to taste like. Tastes very much like tiramisu. Yum.

Coconut Cheesecake Honeybush from 52teas
97

Pinch me! I’m in tea heaven!!!! So very very very good! Awesome job Frank!

You Rule!

Watermelon Raspberry Green Tea from 52teas
90

Oh yumma-yumma-yumma! Delish, but going away into the tea cupboard until we have 70 degree days. Feels a bit odd drinking this with huge snowdrifts outside!

I’m not tasting any raspberry in this at all. Just a great combo of watermelon and green tea. (Who would have thought that would be so good)

Thanks Meghann for this one.

Another delish blend by Frank!

The Jane Austen Mafia from Adagio Teas
100

YUMMMY!!! I can’t wait to drink this while reading a Jane Austen novel. The blackberries and vanilla are taking center stage on this one. Hmmmm. Soooo good!!!

Another fab Valentine’s Day Present. So yummy!

KRUEGER'S KISS from Custom-Adagio Teas
96

2nd infusion, still yum!!!
Love the movies (i’m a huge horror nut) and now I have the perfect horror tea to watch with my movies!

KRUEGER'S KISS from Custom-Adagio Teas
96

This is sooo good. Yum. A nice blend of honeybush & rooibos flavors. Love it.

Bought for me as a Valentine’s Day pressie. Its awesome!

ROOIBOS MOJITO from DORI'S TEA COTTAGE
95

Found this on ebay and thought eh I’ll try a sample. So very good. Very Mojitoish. Perfect for an afternoon treat. Yum!!

Celebration from Tea for All Reasons
96

So this one is ok. Not sure if I would pick up again or not. The vanilla is there but its light, almost like it needs more vanilla to kick up the flavor a bit. . .but its a nice way to keep your Monday going. . . .

Snowflake Secret from ESP Emporium
89

Another surprising tea! Recently picked up a Groupon from ESP and gave them a try. Pretty happy so far from what I’m seeing and tasting.

This one smells like an Apple Candle. Perfect on this cold day. The white and green teas are very light and you can really taste the apple and it really does taste like an apple dessert of some sort. I’m on my third infusion and the flavors are still going strong.

Dee-lish!

A very good dessert tea!

Zingiber Ginger Coconut from Teavana
97

Another delish cuppa!!! So very very good! Everything mingles together quite nicely and the spice isn’t overwhelming which makes this perfect for anytime of the day. Another staple in my cupboard. And another kudos to Meghann for the sample. Yummers!!

Almond Biscotti from Teavana
94
JavaVana Mate from Teavana
100

Seriously, where have you been all my life JavaVana. Just the name itself is fun.

Soo good. Especially since I use to be a crazy coffee drinker, this is the perfect blend for me. Everything mixes perfectly together.

Thanks Meghann for this one also. You have just made my day!

Cha Yen Thai from Teavana
100

All I can say is Wow. Love this one and it will have to be a STAPLE in my cupboard for all Time. I’m literally blow away by this one. I’m not a big spice person so the light hints of spice in it are perfect. Just delish. Perfect on a bitter-bitter cold day.

Swiss Vervaine Melange from Teavana
67

What a “Purty” Little Tea! This is my first experience with Teavana. (Thanks Meghann!!)

Very light and very clean. I can see how this would be a nice and relaxing tea after a long day . . .Pretty good.

Blueberry Cream Cheese Danish Black Tea from 52teas
97

Thanks to Meghann M for sending me this one and several other 52teas, etc to try. I was like a kid at Christmas with all the pkgs! :0)

Wow, am I sorry I missed this one. Delish! I love it! Prolly the best blueberry tea I’ve had so far! Its the perfect morning tea. Just the right sweetness to get you going. Oh Yum! Gonna have to make this one last as long as possible!

Triple Threat Temptation from The Tea Table
94

This one is actually really good. I haven’t found a chocolate tea yet that doesn’t have that fake chocolate flavor. . . Until now. This is delish. The chocolate is very light and it mixes very well with the coconut, carmel, and vanilla. Almost tastes like a candy bar.

Yummy! Another cup please!

Summer Breeze from SpecialTeas
74

Even three infusions in, this one is still soo tastey!

Oh SpecialTeas. . . I only knew you for a brief moment, but will sooo miss you!!

Tiramisu from California Tea House
93

Wow, this is good. Its weird. Love that it does have coffee notes to it. Just not sure I’m digging the way this tea smells, but very very good. Comforting. A very comforting blend. I’m not pickinig up the white cocoa, but I’m getting the rest of the flavors. Yum.

Profile

Bio

I am a huge fan of all tea. Love them all. But I don’t add any sugar or cream to any of them. As my friends say, I drink my tea/coffee like a cowboy.

Live in Illinois. Have two beautiful kids.

I basically describe myself like this: love my beer, love my wine, love my tea, and love my kids. And not in that order.

Illinois
