I asked for a sample of this tea with my last order from Den’s. I was excited to try it. I am in love with the pineapple sencha and just ordered a pound of it.
The orange is nice but for some reason I was getting more of a muted orange taste not a real juicy orange taste like I was expecting. It is still nice but I think I will stick with my favorite-the pineapple sencha!

Good morning cup…getting a lot of malty-ness with this steep. I love Saturday mornings!!!

Simply a nice black tea with apple and a touch of cinnamon. Perfect to help warm me up today. I love Harney & Sons!

Took a quick break from work today and stopped at my mom’s and enjoyed a cup of this with a homemade cocoa muffin (made using healthy ingredients-mostly natural things like whole wheat flour, dark cocoa, and agave nectar, I am not sure of the rest of the ingredients). The tea and the cocoa muffin were amazing!!!!!

I can’t get enough of this stuff! I am almost out…going to have to break my ban of tea buying and buy another pouch!

I had a cup of this with lunch today. It complimented my grilled chicken salad nicely!

I had a cup of this at work this am and was able to enjoy it hot, always a plus! One of my coworkers was in my office when I was scooping some of the loose tea into a paper filter and asked to smell the tea. She wanted to try a cup and she enjoyed it! I think I will take her a little bag of this tea for a treat on Monday so she can take some home. Especially since I have a pound of this!!! :) And I have a great supplier if I order by the pound!

I needed an afternoon pick me up and decided to go for the Hot cinnamon spice with the caffeine. Tastes great! It is freezing cold outside and I feel like I should just keep this in the breville all afternoon ready and waiting on the “keep warm” feature. But I think I would be up all night if I do. WIll have to switch to a pot of decaf on tap :)

Another crazy day…had to drink most of this cold but I do also enjoy it that way! Again hoping tomorrow I can enjoy a cup of HOT tea!
I have to check Den’s tea website and see if this is back in stock…I am getting low on it already! ALthough I soon need to put myself on a ban of tea buying! IT is SOOOOO hard but I think my tea cabinet is getting out of control!!!!!

My mom and I were shopping today and leave it to us to find tea in a place I didn’t expect to. We found cubes of this in a TJ MAX store for $5.99 for 100 bags. What the heck we both bought a cube of it. Neither of us is disappointed, for a teabag this is not bad. Light green tea with a nice mango flavor! On a side note, also found some organic agave nectar for a great price too! It was a GREAT shopping day! :)

This tea reminds me of spring and spring can’t come soon enough for me this year! The sencha is the dominant taste with a slight floral tone to it. I was a little nervous about the floral part because I do not like floral teas but this is very light. The cherry is a tart taste but light and balanced with the buttery green taste and floral notes. This is SPRING! I like it!!!

Delicious….great way to wake up on a Friday! Especially a Friday with no where to be and nothing planned!

OHHHH this one is so good! I still do not see it listed as a permanent addition though :( starting the sniffling now!
I love this! I get great coconut taste with a tangy bite to it. I am trying to ration my one and only pouch but it is hard!
I love the fact that it is a honeybush blend and without caffiene for me to enjoy in the evening!!

I knew before I even went to work this am it was going to be a super crazy and super long day!!!! My front desk person was out sick and I had to leave my post as business manager and jump into a super busy front desk position of the dental practice. I have a much greater appreciation for the coworkers who do this job on a regular basis because it is absolutely nuts…I don’t think I went to the restroom all day LOL.
Anyway I decided to steep and take some pineapple sencha because I knew it would be cold till I was able to finish it and I would still love it! I was right! At least for a few quick sips during today I felt like I was on a tropical island! I also had one of the expanded functions assistants out sick which I found out when I arrived at work so I even jumped back into my old role of dental assisting for a few moments today. WOW….I am tired! Looking forward to a better day tomorrow when I can hopefully enjoy my tea HOT! :)

So yesterday I spent a great day with friends shopping, going to the tea store and visiting a tea room for lunch. At the tea shop they just got in some matcha and I could buy just an ounce. I decided I would go for it and give it a try. (I have always wanted to try it but just nervous about it.) Well I tried it today and was pleased with my first attempt. It had a vegetative taste but also a touch of sweetness to it. I am not sure how to describe it. However, since I had the bowl of matcha I feel incredibly thirsty??!!! Not sure about that. I think I would enjoy some of the flavored matcha.
I am not going to rate it because I am not sure which company’s matcha I had. But I will definitely have some again!

I enjoyed this while at lunch with girlfriends at a nice tearoom Sugarplums and Tea. We had great food and tea! A lovely time!
This tea was greatly flavored strawberry and I also got the cream part while using a nice light green tea base. Super yummy, refreshing and relaxing! We each had our own pot of different tea but I think everyone purchased some of this one loose to take home. We all loved it!

This is REALLY GOOD! Coconut and I am getting a bit of a tangy bite to it, I think the cheesecake part. I hope Frank is considering adding this to the permanent collection! Yummy! You know a tea is good when you finish it in no time and want/crave another cup! That is definitely occurring with this one!!!

Winding down from today with a cup of this. My youngest had to have minor surgery today (ear tubes). I was up at an hour I didn’t even know existed…4:30am! I had to get myself ready, the two girls, make sure husband had the car loaded, drop off the one daughter at grandma’s and be at the surgery center by 6:30am. We made it! But the effects of awakening and the stress of the day are catching up with me! We are all winding down and are going to be heading to bed early!!! This is the perfect tea to do the job.
On a side note my daughter is doing great! And I am super duper excited to check out a tea room with some girlfriends for lunch tomorrow!!!

Really enjoying this one! It is so nice outside, but for some reason I am freezing in my house! Ugghh! This tea is helping. Also just resteeped for another pot. This resteeps nicely.
I am hoping this is not a seasonal tea! If it is Joy’s Teaspoon please let me know so I can stock up before it disappears!! :)

I LOVE THIS!!!! I just celebrated my 30th birthday on Monday and my husband ordered two new tins for me for more tea!!! I claimed one of them for this tea because as soon as it is back in stock I want to order more. The tea tins are SO cute too- they are japanese doll tea tins. Love them! http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=japanese+tea+doll+canister&x=0&y=0
and this one:http://www.amazon.com/White-Hakata-Doll-Canister-Japan/dp/B004AMBMUQ/ref=sr_1_fkmr2_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1297976451&sr=8-1-fkmr2
And I just ordered the sakura sencha from Den’s tea. I am so very anxious to try some! Their senchas are AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Had a cup of this delightful treat this early afternoon while at work. It helped me slow down and take a breath to cope with the disastrous work week I am having!!!!!! Just have to get through two more work days this week- thank goodness!

LOVE…. added some mini Reeses peanut butter cups for some extra sweetness and enjoyed this for breakfast! It almost seemed sinful!

Backlogging… Drank this yesterday….Happy Valentine’s day and Happy Birthday to me! So of course it was only appropriate to drink a Valentine’s blend. Perfect and sweet for a great day!

Backlogging….The girls and I each enjoyed some of this last night. My mom received some samples from Joy’s Teaspoon and requested this one since she knew her grandbabies loved it. They were so happy when Grandma brought them some “orange” tea! We had a little tea party. Even my youngest (15months) loves this one!!! Will have to place an order again soon!
