18 Tasting Notes

Night Owl Tea from Eastern Shore Tea Company
94

I love this tea in the evening when I’m reading and need to focus. I don’t feel like I’ve had a caffeine overdose when drinking this tea, but I’m alert and ready to take on any evening projects.

Awake- Filterbag from Tazo
90

My first taste of this cuppa was at the Omni in Philly a couple of years ago. I added cream and sugar and was very impressed. Bold in taste and color, this is my go-to tea when I feel the need for a cup of coffee.

Victorian Rose Tea from Eastern Shore Tea Company
81

This is my first tea with rose petals so I was very exciting my this purchase. I love roses so this may be a tad biased. This tea is delicate and would be great for an afternoon tea with scones. It smells really good as well. For my net cup I may steep it for a couple of more minutes. If you love roses, this tea is for you!

Cupid's Arrow from Eastern Shore Tea Company
80

I’m so excited to drink a local tea! I was pleasantly surprised this morning with drinking this. Subtle hints of vanilla and cherry makes this black tea enjoyable to drink. I steeped it for 5 minutes and it wasn’t bitter so I’m thinking if you left the bad in it won’t turn bitter. I’m glad I picked this up.

Double Bergamot Earl Grey from Stash Tea Company
97

This is hands down my favorite bagged tea. I’m on my second box and giving boxes away! I simply love the full body taste and it simply makes my morning. Highly recommended if you are an Earl Grey fan.

Darjeeling from Bigelow
48

I remember buying this box and looking forward in trying something new and was really disappointed because it was very harsh for me. It could be the steeping time and temperature. It took a year for me to finish the box. Maybe I will try again with a different brand or a loose altenative.
1/16/2012- Okay, so I bought a second box since it was on sale. I carefully steeped this tea for 2 minutes or it becomes bitter quickly. I raised the rating since I like the favor the second time around. I’m not sure if this will be in my regular rotation of my tea, but I will give it a chance to grow on me.

Lemon Lift from Bigelow
57

I’m not a big fan of lemon in my tea, but it’s delightful with a lemon scone or biscotti for a mid-morning treat. It’s not too lemony.

Honey Lemon Ginseng Green Tea from Celestial Seasonings
58

My friend getting over a cold gave me a box so this is what I’m sipping on this afternoon. Very smooth- I’m even able to tolerate the lemon, as I have to be in a mood for lemon in my tea. I wish I had this tea when I was getting over my cold last month!

White Christmas from Stash Tea Company

I passed this tea out to my co-workers and it was a hit during the holiday season. A nice tea for the season.

Moroccan Mint from Numi Organic Tea
49

My first mint tea in a long time to wind down my work day. Since I don’t have anything to compare to, I will say that ‘s nice to sip for the afternoon. I think I was expecting something special, so maybe I’m a bit disappointed.

Detox from Pukka
75

I got this tea over the weekend because I was fasinated with the smell. The taste is delicate and different so I’m pleased with my purchase. I haven’t taken the teabag out of the thermos, it’s tasting better with each sip.

Irish Breakfast Tea from Trader Joe's
48

I usually don’t drink Irish Breakfast since you have to put milk in sugar in it, and right now I’m working on enjoying tea in its natural state. It’s fine, I can see why there are mixed review on this one. A friend gave me a few bags since she knows I enjoy tea, I don’ think I would buy this on my own.

Earl Grey White from Teavana
87

It’s a Sunday afternoon of leisure. This is the first time I actually got a thermometer and steeped my tea for a perfect cup, and it was completely worth it. Very smooth and refreshing, this is my favorite tea right now. Happy sipping!

Aged Earl Grey from Numi Organic Tea
Earl Grey Green from Bigelow
59

I’m on my second box, so I enjoy having it available when I need a cup of black/green tea. I was unsure about it at first, so I was pleasantly surpised that I liked it. I don’t use cream or sugar in this tea.

Morning Rise Breakfast Blend from Numi Organic Tea
53

Standard black tea, a nice coffee replacement for the morning to get you going for the day.

Energize Me from Distinctly Tea
64

Delicate herbal tea. A nice tea to start of a relaxing weekend…

English Afternoon Tea from Twinings
