Definitely something I’m going to be keeping in the cupboard!

The honey notes are very strong in this one, but not too much so. I love it straight, or with some milk. I couldn’t really taste the mate though, but that doesn’t hinder my overall opinion of it. I love this one when I’m deep in term-paper time and it’s been a great help for maintaining focus.

I really like this one. Initially, I was reluctant because I though it would be similar to read my lips, which I do enjoy, but am not over the moon about. Having said that however, I really do love this tea! I like it when I’m in the mood for a good full-bodied black tea but don’t want to fall back on the usual Earl Grey or orange pekoe. I really enjoy the blending of chocolate and strawberry and the general balance of flavors that really stand out rather than becoming a muddles mess. I drink this one with 2% and a teensy bit of agave if my sweet tooth is wanting attention. I will be getting this again :)

I loved this tea! I will definitely need to restock next time I’m at David’s. I take this one either as it is or with a teeny bit of honey. I ran out before I could try it with agave, but I feel like that would be just as excellent. It did well on multiple steepings and the flavor profile did not change drastically. A great tasting tea: I enjoyed the mild nuttiness with the mulberry.

I was really pleased with this one. I had it as a tea to-go with a little bit of agave and had to restrain myself from turning around going back to grab a tin of it. This one is great steeped for short or longer periods, and either without or with just a little bit of agave. I haven’t tried it with milk, though I don’t think you’d really need it. The flavors were nicely balanced and it is excellent freshly steeped and hot, or forgotten-on-the-counter cold/iced. :)

This tea really grew on me and I’m disappointed that they’ve discontinued it in stores. My tin just ran out too :( I drank this almost constantly for two weeks straight at the end of the semester and boy did it make a difference. Hot or cold, with a tiny bit of honey, and no milk is the way to go with this one. I liked a steep time of at least three minutes, and let it sit for as long as an hour in some cases when I forgot about it. A very tasty tea.

I had this as a latte with 2% and no agave, sugar or honey. I have to admit it was pretty tasty. But It did not wow me all that much. I’d grab it as a latte to go, but I wouldn’t go out of my way to get a bag or tin for my home stash.

Makes a great chai latte with a teeny bit of a kick from those peppercorns.
Would do well with a little bit more coconut for a richer body, but overall it makes a good cup either with milk or without.

I was disappointed with this one, I was looking for more of the licorice flavors.
Not bad overall, but not something I would go for again.

I was hoping for a stronger fig flavor, but found the the first steeping offered a stronger melon flavor. I’m looking forward to further steepings to see how the flavor profile develops. On the whole I’m very much enjoying this brand new flavor of the month!

I’m sad this company does not ship to Canada!

my favorite jasmine green! Excellent hot or iced.

I definitely did not enjoy this one. The lemon and citrus was very overwhelming.
