Still on the first steep, but my, oh my, what a lovely tea! Light, delicate, smooth but not cloying. Yum.

Imperial Mojiang Golden Bud Yunnan Black Tea from Yunnan Sourcing

This is the smoothest, freshest Yunnan gold I have ever tried. Simply exquisite.

Green Mountain Green Water from Dream About Tea
75

This is my evening tonic, brewed up with a bit of chrysanthemum. It is a medicinal dose, really, and I recommend multiple short steeps because it is so bitter, but damn…I do feel better when I drink this stuff regularly.

Berry Twist Rooibos from The Boston Tea Company
71

Drinking this on ice. I am very impressed. Good rooibos with not-sweet berry flavor. Slightly tart. Most refreshing.

Formosa Hong Shui Oolong from auraTeas
Keemun Mao Feng Black Tea (Keemun Mao Feng Hong Cha) from Jing Tea
91

Love this stuff still. I particularly like that I can get multiple infusions from one batch of leaves.

Like another reviewer said, this is a nifty tea. I need to spend more time with it, but I like its sweetness and its light body.

Hot Cinnamon Spice from Harney & Sons

Ginseng Oolong from Dream About Tea
78

Awesome on ice. Great way to start my morning. This stuff was MADE for cold brewing.

Golden Yunnan from thepuriTea
English Breakfast from Harney & Sons

Herbal Hot Cinnamon Spice from Harney & Sons
80

Hot damn! I am a fiend for Harney & Son’s Hot Cinnamon Spice tea, but it has quite a caffeine kick so I need to avoid drinking too much (and I can’t drink it at all in the evenings). Imagine my surprise to discover that all that sweet, rich, red-hot goodness is available in herbal form! No-caffeine rooibos goodness, and racing heartbeat. Yippee!
