19 Tasting Notes

Ceylon Sonata from Adagio Teas
84

Smooth! I love it. I let it steep about 3.5 minutes as directed. I can also get a second steep out of it.

Irish Breakfast from Adagio Teas
79

I’ve been drinking this as my morning tea the past couple days. It has a nice kick. The assam gives it a dusty, dirty taste. I almost wish it had more ceylon but then it wouldn’t be Irish breakfast tea :)
I like it, it stands up to several steepings with no loss in flavor (loose leaf).

Chamomile Citrus from Mighty Leaf Tea
63

This tea was a pleasant surprise. I am not an herbal tea fan – give me a strong black tea any day! But today I am tackling a sore throat and read that chamomile was a good treatment. Chamomile tea has always tasted dusty to me, but this tea with the citrus and the honey I added was tasty, sweet but not too sweet. THe jury is out about treating a sore throat though.

After 5 from Lupicia
90

Fresh, minty. Tea bag lasts multiple steeps. Great for my cold.

Orange Dulce from Mighty Leaf Tea

This tea smells amazing but disappoints in the mug. Earl Gray-like as others noted, but the taste disappears.

Organic Breakfast from Mighty Leaf Tea
63

Not as fully-flavored as I expected but it was ok. I would buy again. I just bought a variety pack of ML so I am eager to see how they all pan out.

Lady Grey from Twinings
84

I love this tea in the afternoon. One day I added vanilla creamer by mistake at work, but the flavors work wonderfully together. It’s a great pick me up for the work day.

Awake™ Full Leaf Tea from Tazo Tea
89
Chai Masala from UP N' ATOM brand Chai
68

Smooth pleasant taste. I prepared it in a diffuser and mixed it 2 parts tea one part skim milk.Better as an afternoon tea than a morning tea imo.

Orzo Cioccolata from Lupicia
83

Tastes as much like chocolate as carob does, but it is a very pleasant tea. I made mine with warm milk and sugar. Don’t let it steep too long or it will become bitter, IMO. Great tea for a rainy afternoon.

Caramel & Rum from Lupicia
80

I was surprised by this tea as I was prepared to not like it. Like other reviewers, I prepared it as a latte. The rum flavor is strong and rounds out the tea. Sadly the tea bag I had worked for just one cup and weakly steeped the second cup I tried. Darn! This was a very enjoyable cup on a cold rainy afternoon and I would definitely buy it again.

Magnolia Puerh from Numi Organic Tea
57

Smooth and pleasant. I drank it with honey. I left the bag in my large mug as I drank, and it tasted good when steeped 5 minutes and tasted good when steeped 20. It’s not something I will step over babies to get again, but I wouldn’t refuse it if it were given to me (as this bag was).

Strawberry & Vanilla from Lupicia

Although it smells strongly of strawberry. it has more of a matcha taste to me. I bet it goes great with milk but sadly I have none. I wouldn’t reach for this everyday but it’s nice enough.

Mint Tea (5800) from Lupicia
89

As described. Very yummy and minty but not too minty as some can be.

Grapefruit Green from Lupicia
89

The smell alone is worth the price of admission. This is a wonderful light tea, good for an afternoon pick me up or getting you going in the morning.

Mrs. Earl Grey from Teavana

It does have a spicy kick, I agree! But also the familiar bergamot that Earl Grey is noted for. This is a comforting afternoon tea.

Muscat from Lupicia
33

Interesting because it’s different but not something I reach for every day. Tastes a little artificial.

Matcha Black Soybean Rice Tea from Lupicia

Love this tea. It delightful with milk and honey.

Zen from Tazo
67

Good for 2 steeps. Mint is not overpowering. Good with honey.
