80 Tasting Notes

Corrine's Lemon Rooibos from Strand Tea Company
58

Very pleasant lemony tea, slightly muted lemon fragrance and taste; not as strongly scented or flavored as a lemon myrtle, but still very bright with a strong lemon fragrance. Would like to try it iced.

Rose Congou from Strand Tea Company
67

Lightly fragrant black tea, lovely light rose scent and flavor. Although I normally add milk and sugar to my black teas, doing so to this tea overwhelmed whatever rose fragrance and flavor there was. Good tea, although I’ll keep looking for other rose-scented teas that may hold up better to milk and sugar.

Luscious Licorice from Strand Tea Company
78

Enjoyed this much more than I thought I would. The initial flavor didn’t appeal to me, but almost immediately I was hit with a licorice-y, anise-y sweetness that was quite enjoyable. I really enjoyed this one as an iced tea.

Hawaiian Paradise Fruit Tea from Strand Tea Company
47

It was definitely very fruity, with a slight tang (thanks to the apple), and while it was a very pretty-looking tea, and it was decent, I definitely preferred it iced. Very fruity, no one fruit or herb was over overpowering, and blended well enough, but not something I’m likely to be in the mood for often.

Organic Lemon Myrtle from Strand Tea Company
95

I’ve always liked lemon myrtle tea; it smells really fresh and just very bright and lemony, and it’s one of the reasons I enjoy this tea so much. If adding honey, don’t add too much – the sweetness will overpower the delicate lemon flavor. Also good iced!

Organic Dunsandle from LeafSpa Organic Tea
93

Excellent all-around black tea, no bitterness; holds up very well with milk and sugar.

Red Mountain Mint from Strand Tea Company
77

Pretty good, interesting tea. The loose leaf (pre-brewed) tea smells lovely and minty, and the post-brewed smells lightly of fruit, namely cherry, with hints of peppermint aftertaste.

Organic Grapefruit Black from LeafSpa Organic Tea
67

Better steeped at 3 minutes, it has more grapefruit tasting notes without milk and sugar, but is also more bitter without.
