Berryblossom White

I steeped this for about two minutes and it became very bitter fast.
I don’t really taste the berry but I’m going to try it again later with a shorter steep time.
Maybe then it will taste better.

I tried this tea at lunch today.

Used hot (nearly boiling) water from the water spigot at work.
Steeped 1.5 minutes
Liquor was a pretty cinnamon bark brown, darker than I thought white tea would get, maybe from the berries?

I think the temperature of the water really hurt this brew of tea. At first sniff I didn’t smell anything but a very faint berry. First sips while still very hot tasted like infused cardboard. After cooling down for a few minutes I noticed a bit more of the berry, but not really any tea flavor. Quite a bit of cardboard like aftertaste.

I’ll give it another shot with a much cooler controlled temp, but first taste this was awful!

My favorite teas tend to be either fruit-flavored or white varieties. This one of course fills both categories, and I love it! The tea base has a delicate flavor (a plus—I like mild teas), and the berry flavors complement it nicely. One of my favorites.

very calming and sensuous

Love. This.

Bagged teas are not preferred, but if I’m on the go and need a fix and the only place I can get my tea is a Starbucks, this is what I choose. Floral notes with blueberry gives a fragrant and tasty tea, but as to be expected, the flavor is lacking compared to loose-leaf.

I can taste a lot of “white,” but not much “berry.” A little weak.

A nice, light aromatic tea.

Very light, first tried as a iced tea. It is nice as a hot, sipping tea.

Who dares to teach, never ceases to learn.

The berries come through with a nice mellow flavor to this white tea. My first taste of a white tea. I will definitely be back for more.

Light and delicious…if you’re into that.

This has become one of my favorites. There’s a light taste of berry. I like it with a bit of brown sugar or honey.

Snagged this from Starbucks today. Haven’t had one in ages and forgot how much I really like this tea. I haven’t been a fan of bagged teas lately, but this one really does it for me.

Not a fan of really fruity/berry teas, but if you are, perhaps give this one a try. The tea itself is light and tastes mostly of blueberries with a hint of floral something (the white cranberry perhaps?) in the background. Very fragrant berry notes right from the start, it smells sweeter, stronger, and heavier than the tea actually tastes, which [imo] gets in the way. Not horrible, but not something I’ll reach for very often.

I love the light taste of this tea with a bit of honey. It smells and tastes heavenly. =)

It smells great! The Starbucks barista even commented on how wonderful it smelled. Blueberry flavored and not overpowering. Probably more of a spring/summer flavor but was just what I needed on a frigid winter afternoon.

am not a fan of Tazo teas at all, this one has been in our tea “box” for a really long time and no one seems to really enjoy it I must say.
