193 Tasting Notes

pumkin spice from Unknown
82

I picked this up at a local tea shop (I will have to find out which company) a few weeks ago. It is a full bodied black tea, with a great pumpkin taste with hints of spice and vanilla. Since I was painting pumpkins with my daughter I thought it was an appropriate afternoon cuppa. Enjoyable!

spiced caramel apple from The East Indies Tea Company

Spiced caramel apple tea and warm apple crisp…. don’t need to say anything more! Started the morning out GREAT!

Gingerbread Spice from Celestial Seasonings
10

YUCK! A friend gave this to me at work today so I thought I would try it. Can’t even finish my cup. Soooo gross. I really enjoy their Candy Cane Lane, but this one was a huge dissappointment!!!

Apple-Vanilla White Chai from 52teas
88

I made this tea to enjoy this afternoon. It has been a busy and emotional day! My baby turned ONE today! We had a mini celebration at lunchtime (we have two parties planned for this weekend) So after the sugar rush while she was napping I made this to comfort me trying to hold back my tears that my last baby is one! It was such a great comfort tea! It reminds me of the holidays. Really loving 52 teas!

Orange, Passionfruit & Jasmine Green from Lipton
Precious White Peach from Teavana
88

My Breville came today, My Breville came today!!!!!!! Happy dance when I saw the brown box on my front porch today!!! Ok I have calmed down and decided to try it out. This is the first tea I made… I couldn’t decide which tea to make so I just closed my eyes and grabbed a tin and this was it. LOL I enjoy this tea hot or iced. Good peach flavor! Now I have to sit down and read the manual to see how to set this baby to auto start.

Hot Cinnamon Spice from Harney & Sons
95

Ok today I made this again and used less tea (1 teaspoon for 12 oz instead of 8oz) And it turned out GREAT! Not as strong or syrupy as the last time I made it. Yummy!

Walnut Fudge Brownie from 52teas
92

I had this for my morning tea, it is very smooth. I can taste hints of nuts and chocolate but not very strong. Will play around with tea, it is very enjoyable I just wish there was a stronger chocolate flavor. (But I am a chocoholic so keep that in mind I will ALWAYS want more chocolate!) I am very pleased with 52teas! Will definitely be following the tea of the weeks and ordering again.

Strawberry Pie Honeybush from 52teas
100

Ok I couldn’t help myself as soon as I finished my cup of white choc grasshopper I steeped the Strawberry pie…… THIS is probably one of the BEST things I have tasted! I taste the strawberry but can taste the “crust” in the tea. I have to resist the urge to place another order today (especially since my husband left me order the Breville today) I am having my parents over for dinner tonight and will introduce them to a big pot of this for after dinner dessert! Is this a permanent honeybush blend or just a limited when its gone, its gone blend?

White Chocolate Grasshopper Honeybush from 52teas
100

I was so excited that my tea came today from 52teas! It was such a tough decision to decide which to try first! I chose this one…. and I am in HEAVEN!!! Ooohhh the spearmint vanilla are awesome together and there were white chocolate chips in the tea!!!! I LOVE it! I can’t wait to try the Strawberry pie next. It smells good enough to eat right out of the pouch it came in :) I am new to honeybush but this stuff is great. I steeped for 8min. Does that sound about right?

Candy Cane Lane from Celestial Seasonings
82

Picked this up at Walmart today! Tis the season for holiday teas! I really enjoy this tea especially at such a cheap price of around $2 a box. But wondering why I only picked up one box of this!!?? Will have to pick up more for evenings when I am too lazy to scoop out loose tea.

Pi Lo Chun from Teavana
66

Light, smooth tea. I enjoy this tea iced or hot. This is one of my daughter’s favorite teas. I have only tried Pi Lo Chun from Teavana but I would like to try some from different vendors to compare.

Cinnamon Apple Chamomile from t Leaf T
88

My soon to be 3 year old daughter picked this tea out at our local tea shop this past weekend. I am not usually fond of chamomile but thought it would be great for her to drink before bedtime. So I will write this review using her words, “mmmm, I wuv it!”

Samurai Chai Mate & White Ayurvedic Chai Blend from Teavana
89

I have a love/hate relationship with this tea. I really LOVE it most days, but it can be tempermental at times and sometimes does not seem strong enough. Not sure why- I make it the exact same way every time. But I really do LOVE this tea! spicy and sweet

Moroccan mint from The East Indies Tea Company
90

Well no surprise that I love this tea because I love peppermint and the green to base just makes it even better! You can definitely taste the peppermint in this tea but it is not overly powerful. Very enjoyable!

spiced caramel apple from The East Indies Tea Company
90

Wonderful tea! Tastes exactly like the name of the tea…. nice balance of flavors and tea. Naturally sweet (but is not too sweet) no need to add sugar.

Nutcracker Sweet from The East Indies Tea Company
82

I picked this tea up at a local tea shop today, it is a good blend! Picked up the hints of nuts and cranberry as well as spice. Wonderful holiday tea!

Florence from Harney & Sons
90

Ohhh soooo good!!!! It reminds me of Nutella but can definitely taste TEA! Flavored to perfection! Great balance of flavors and tea! I think I am going to go make another cup, I am seeing the bottom of this teacup way to fast :)

Hot Cinnamon Spice from Harney & Sons
95

This is like drinking syrup rather than tea…. although I did enjoy it. Reminded me of Big Red gum. Do NOT add sugar to this tea!!!!

Hot Cinnamon Spice from Harney & Sons

Sweet Oolong Revolution from Teavana
24

I know my review will go against the other reviews posted about this tea, but for me I will not be able to get to the bottom of my teacup with this tea in it! Yuck, can’t get past a papaya taste. Also leaves a fake spiced aftertaste. This tea is not for me.

Peppermint from Teavana
99

Peppermint is always a staple in my tea cabinet! Teavana’s peppermint is a good strong peppermint that leaves your mouth very minty and cool afterwards.

Jasmine Dragon Phoenix Pearls from Teavana
73

very relaxing. Tried it at Teavana blended with Strawberry Lemonade herbal and it was such a calming tea, I bought some to bring home and have been drinking a cup in the evenings. Will refill the tin when it is finished.

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!
