Another surprise from Meghann M, thanks, girl!
I must say…this one isn’t my favorites from 52 Teas thus far. BUT…here’s my official review…
It’s not bad, but I don’t think I would buy for myself. It seems a bit soapy or artificially flavored or something…I can’t really put my finger on it. I think I would probably like the Citrus flavored black BUT the mixed spice is what is throwing me for a loop. It’s too much for my liking. HOWEVER, if you are all about spice and such – you’d probably like it.
Frank & 52 Teas – you know I love ya…but…
I’m not feelin’ this one.
I can certainly finish what’s in my cup and what I might try and do next time is infuse less loose leaf for a lesser time and maybe I will like it a bit toned down.
Don’t hate me, Frank, and for the LOVE OF the tea gods, don’t sick Chelsea on me! LOL – j/k

LOL. No worries. I’ve finally come to terms with the fact that not everybody is going to love every blend we make. Heck, I don’t even love all of our blends equally. If you drink iced tea, you might try this one iced. (I would probably recommend that with most of our teas, since I’m an iced tea nut, but this one was crafted with iced tea in mind).
LOL – I knew I would be able to get you to comment on this one!!! :P
Yeah…it’s just like WINE…not every WINE is for everyone! There are lots of OTHER 52 Teas I LOVE…
Speaking of Chelsea… FRANK… I want more of her Chocolate Covered Banana rooibos. Please… oh… btw did you read my review of it on the Tea Review Blog? It published the other night…….
Would Chelsea be able to do ANYTHING else instead of the banana!? LOL Like Strawberry or Blueberry or Garlic (Just kidding) ANYTHING OTHER THAN BANANA!!!! I hate banana! :P
Banana is not my favorite fruit either (I don’t hate it though)… nor am I a big fan of rooibos (don’t hate them, just don’t always love them), but, the chocolate covered banana rooibos is aMAZing. And, I have hidden what I have left from myself so that I don’t grab for it and finish it without the promise that I will be able to get more. What’s Chelsea’s email address? I will email her and ask her to whine to Frank………
Not sure…but I bet if it was ever posted somewhere she HAS to have a following after Frank has harassed her in some of the tea back-stories in the past! LOL
LOL. Chelsea is actually on Steepster as FreckleKisses or some such silliness, but she hasn’t done much with Steepster. She is already whining a little. Our brick and mortar customers want it back too. They seem to miss asking Chelsea for “a hot naked Chelsea”—naked meaning not a latte, frappuTEAno, tea soda, tea spritzer, teashake or tea sundae. They all seemed to get a big kick out of ordering the naked tea, though I don’t think any of them actually purchased any pouches of it. (We serve a bunch of college aged kids. They will order a thousand $2 cups of tea before they will purchase an $8 pouch.)
Anyway, yes I did see your review and all of the others you have been posting on teareviewblog.com Thanks so much for your kind words. I’ll see what we can do about getting some more Chelsea’s blend going.
YAY for Chelsea!!!
:)
Yeah, Frank, you have to WATCH OUT for us TeaReviewBlog Girls, ya know!!! LOL
