Midsummer's Peach (Decaf) from Harney & Sons
93

Finished my tin of this already! This is good! I have been making iced tea with it. This last batch I only had 3 bags so I added the rest using vanilla comorro. WOW! Good combo iced!!!!!!!

Peach Cobbler Green Tea from 52teas
97
Pancake Breakfast Black Tea from 52teas
100

I love this tea! I enjoyed this yesterday morning while spending the weekend in Ocean City Maryland with my girls. I nice weekend get a way with a great morning cup of tea!

Midsummer's Peach (Decaf) from Harney & Sons
93

Just brewed this up today with my handy dandy Mr. Coffee iced tea maker, added some agave to it and PERFECTION!!!! Having my second glass of iced peach tea! Oh happy day!

Tower of London Blend from Harney & Sons
96

This tea is delicious! I can’t believe I didn’t try this one sooner. It has a slightly fruity vibe to it but combined with the black tea and honey notes it is amazing! I am making a note to share some of this with my Aunt-I think she will love this one!

Hao Ya 'A' from Harney & Sons

Decided to give this a try for breakfast. I ordered a loose sample with my most recent Harney order. This is a very nice bold keemun tea. I did detect a slight cocoa taste more like a dark semi bitter chocolate taste. I enjoyed the rich “roasty” taste of this one. I drank it without any additions. It was great on this dreary, rainy morning. Unfortunately the rain canceled our outdoor egg hunt plans with the girls.

I think this is great! My Harney’s order just arrived and just in the knick of time as I am down to one more cup of vanilla comoro!!!!! I decided to add this one and try it. It is a nice peach flavor… the peach is dominant but the black tea is nice and smooth. Another decaf that tastes very nice!
I can’t wait to try my samples of Queen Catherine, Hao Ya A and Tower of London!

Green apple from Custom
90

Ok I decided to give it a try and make a pitcher of this iced using the Mr Coffee Iced tea maker. I was unsure how it would come out using a green tea, but it turned out great! A nice iced glass of tart apple green tea!

Pancake Breakfast Black Tea from 52teas
100

What do I love as much as tea? Chocolate! This morning I put an extra twist on Frank’s already delish pancake breakfast tea-Chocolate chips for chocolate chip pancakes!!!!

Vanilla Comoro from Harney & Sons
96

Had a cup of this today and realized how dangerously low my stash is! Definite need for a harney order Stat!! I also ordered the midsummer peach to try and a few samples of some others.

Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup Black Tea from 52teas
97

I love gadgets and bought a MR. Coffee iced tea maker at walmart for $16 that you can use loose tea with. I decided to use some off this to make some iced. Some may think this tea iced wouldn’t taste good but it was Yummy!

Vanilla Comoro from Harney & Sons
96

Drinking a cup of this and playing with my new NOOK COLOR! I love it! My husband so kindly kept our girls busy this morning while I enjoyed going to the bookstore and getting my new present. This is a truly awesome device…. now back to reading!!! Two favorite loves- Reading and tea!!!!

Pancake Breakfast Black Tea from 52teas
100

I just don’t know how Frank does it but he is my tea blending idol!! Take a look at the picture on the label of this tea pouch-picture the buttermilk pancakes dolloped with butter then drizzled with maple syrup. That is exactly what this tastes like! I enjoyed this for breakfast so much that I went on the website this am to see if I could snag another pouch but it was sold out :( This is super yummy!

Pineapple Sencha from Den's Tea
100

Had a VERY emotional and difficult day today at the office….wondering today why I decided to take the business manager position on a day like today! After having issues with an employee, decided to make a cup of pineapple sencha to take me away from all the stress of the day. It helped alot! Praying tomorrow is a lower stress day!!!

Vanilla Comoro from Harney & Sons
96

Enjoyed a wonderful cup of this while visiting with friends last evening. It was nice to be able to drink a great cup of tea and have nice conversation with friends while the kids played. This tea is a DEFINITE in my cupboard and now also my friends cupboard!!

Hot Cinnamon Spice from Harney & Sons
95

What an April Fool’s Day!!! I woke up on April 1st in Eastern Pennsylvania to snow….crazy weather! I NEED spring!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Anyway I had this perfect cup of cinnamon spice tea to wake me up.

Special Pina Colada Green from 52teas
100

Resteep from yesterday- This resteeps nicely! Lovely cup of pineapple and coconut for breakfast! Celebrating my husbands birthday today-we are heading out to lunch for seafood. Yippee! We are going to have a grownup lunch without the kids, but we will probably end up talking about them the whole time. :)

Chocolat Pot de Tea from Joy's Teaspoon

First I want to thank KeenTeaThyme for sending this for me to sample. She added two other goodies that I am anxious to sample but since I am a chocolate addict I decided on this one first. Next let me say I LOVE Joy’s Teaspoon!
The tea smelled like chocolate and made the kitchen smell lovely but the flavor was not what I was expecting. This was not my favorite chocolate tea…something seemed off with it to me. I can’t place it but I am glad I got to try it.

Special Pina Colada Green from 52teas
100

Wow I placed my order for this I think Tues night or Wed and I already have it and am drinking a cup. That is the fasted I have ever received Frank’s delicious blends!
This tea is AMAZING!!! I personally like the green tea base better with this than the honeybush. I have another favorite pineapple green tea but this one is rivaling that one because this has yummy pineapple and coconut with a super good green tea base. Only sad part is I wish I ordered more than the one pouch! Frank you are awesome with your tea blends. Now if you could only do a Smore’s tea with chocolate, marshmallow and graham cracker flavor…. but one request no lapsang in it! Maybe a honeybush base! Please Please Please! ;)

Mellie's Spiced Orappangele from 52teas
97

Made a pot of this yesterday afternoon when my parents came over to visit. We were looking through my stash deciding what to make and I said to my mom to smell this and she said “OH make that one!” :) My mom loved it! My dad drank some but really doesn’t care for fruity blends but said it was ok. But my mom goes to me again later… that it was really good. She really enjoyed it! I keep pesting her to get on steepster but so far she has not. :(

Toasted Marshmallow from Custom-Adagio Teas
85

Thanks to KeenTeaThyme for allowing me to try this blend! I am not a big lapsang fan but I was so intrigued by the name of this tea that I wanted to try it despite the lapsang issues I have. I love the marshmallow and wish there was more of it! It was very nice to try and for those who enjoy lapsang I would recommend this blend!

Black Forest Bliss from Custom-Adagio Teas
91

Bcaklogging…. Received this from KeenTeaThyme in a swap and it is very tasty! I get all the flavors blended nicely. The cherry, chocolate and cream taste wonderful together! Thank you KeenTeaThyme for swapping and the chance to try your blend!

Mellie's Spiced Orappangele from 52teas
97

Wow this is amazing! I am getting an orange/apple cinnamon-y bake-y taste. This is a comforting cup. Very soothing, the orange, apple and cinnamon go very nicely together and you can still taste some buttery notes to the sencha. I think I want more of this…hopefully it won’t sell out till my next payday!!!!
I wonder if Frank would do a lay a way for me till next Wednesday LOL!!!

Spicy Pear from Joy's Teaspoon
96

Enjoyed a cup of this today at work… unfortunately I am not having any more tea for at least this evening. :( Tea is reeking havoc with staining my pearly whites but I am lucky enough to work in a dental office and am in process of whitening my teeth. At least I can keep on with my habit and still maintain WHITE teeth!!

Profile

Bio

Always been a tea drinker but just recently experienced loose leaf teas. LOVE LOVE LOVE actually trying new teas and it has become a bit of an obsession :) I like all types of tea, but I am not a fan of rooibos.
I am mommy to two little princesses who are also starting to love tea….(3 year old and 1 year old-thus my need for caffeine! although they get the non or very low caffeinated teas) And my husband will kill me soon if he keeps getting to the UPS boxes and mail before I do LOL I will have to start shipping it to my work!
