This doesn’t taste like anything..

I loved this when I first tried it months ago, and it’s still tasty. Not as great as I remembered, but I love the very vibrant dried apricot taste.

Earl Grey is the first tea I ever really fell in love with. I don’t drink it too too often, but it takes me back to such a specific time and place – a time when I realized how soothing and delicious tea could be. This is an excellent Earl Grey. The vanilla is creamy without being overpowering, and the bergamot is lively and fresh. This is great.

No notes yet.

VERY strong, almost coffee-like. Not something I’d drink everyday.

Nothing too special, but yum. Very smooth.

Good basic green – vegetal, but not overly so, and a little sweet. I should drink this more often.

Creamier and sweeter than expected. I’m not sure if this would get too sweet over time, but I like it.

EDIT: This definitely got cloyingly sweet the more I drank. I’m not sure if I love this.

Brisk, malty, and full-bodied: everything an Assam should be. Great for first thing in the morning.

This was AMAZING.

Just got my first order from SpecialTeas, and if this tea is any indication, I’ll be ordering from them often. The description is spot on: this tea is smoooth, with a distinct light cocoa flavor. Delicious.

Probably my favorite black flavored tea from Adagio. This stuff just hits the spot.

I need to be in the mood for a Darjeeling to have more than middling feelings about them. Today I am in the mood and it tastes yummy. Typically they’re just too dry for me.

This has a nice mellow spicy chai flavor to it. Regular chai tends to be too overwhelming for me, especially without milk.

Yummy creamy minty bedtime goodness. Almost out.

Lemongrass is lemongrass is lemongrass.

This was tasty. The jasmine is present, but not extremely noticeable; the orange really takes over. It’s a very subtle, creamy orange taste, though. Almost like a creamsicle. I bought a very small sample from Whole Foods. Need to buy more.

Hated this at first – something about the taste was very synthetic. But maybe I just steeped incorrectly or something, because I’m really enjoying it lately. Very sweet, burnt sugar taste without being cloying.

Very simple black tea. Has a more grassy flavor than most. Not super exciting, but gets me my caffeine.
