It’s at work and it’s free – need I say more? Regardless I think this tisane is nice but I really like chamomile. There’s a tiny touch of apple in here but not too noticeable. Chamomile really reminds me of apple anyway. Gentle and relaxing in the afternoon now.

I got this from Jaime in the take it away thread, and figured it’d be perfect for my sickness right now.

Not really tasting much, but there is some apple i’m tasting. I’ve found that chamomile teas are pretty bland. Maybe that’s just the kind i’ve been drinking. Not a bad overall flavor though, The apple flavor is a nice touch to this tea. It’s a perfect choice right now when i really just want a soothing, mellow, tea :)

Wasn’t planning on logging this since i already have & I took a sleeping pill so i’m falling asleep, but the parameters this time were PERFECT. water that had been boiled and cooled off a little bit , for about 4 or so minutes… The taste is just really good. The apple gives it a spicy kick while the chamomile is very soothing. upping my rating.

I want a good night’s sleep tonight, so I’m starting some chamomile early.

I was rather sad the first time I had this. I was hoping for a much stronger apple taste. It’s very light; it definitely takes a backseat to the chamomile. The apple helps to cut the flowery of the chamomile and keeps it from being overpowering. It’s a good chamomile, but not one I’d buy again.

Chamomile lovers only! Luckily, I am one. If you were expecting an intense apple flavor, this might be disappointing. The stronger flavor is a very soothing chamomile, and the apple is a subtle but excellent addition. The apple flavor isn’t “sour apple” or “apples and cinnamon,” but more mellow than either of those. This is one of my favorite teas to drink in the evening when I want a calming cup.

Still nursing a cold, so my sense of taste is not to be trusted. The apple is coming through nicely, though!

This tea is delicious in iced form. Surprisingly, the mellow chamomile doesn’t dilute the apple taste, and the bold apple doesn’t overwhelm the chamomile. The two flavors complement each other quite well but are probably best without any additions. I tried adding mixing it with a jasmine tea once, but the jasmine was hardly noticeable.

The most authentically apple thing I’ve had in the last few weeks. I quite enjoyed it, though one bag to two cups wasn’t my best idea. Ah well, it conserves the tea.

Smells and tastes a bit like green apples – sort of on the candy side, but quite nice. After the terrible Celestial Seasonings Apple Cinnamon episode, I am pleased to find an apple I like.

This isn’t what I wanted to drink, but I only have one left of my preferred tea, so I figured I’d give it a go. I steeped a much shorter time and threw in a bit of raw sugar to try to enhance the apple and minimize the chamomile (which now that I’ve tasted I know I don’t like). Learning experiences!! Anyway, the titch of sugar took the edge off the chamomile. I should bring in my honey from home as I prefer it to sugar, but ah well. Still a lovely tea.

Enjoyed it so much this morning I thought I would have it again. The liquor is more pale than I expect, and the green apple taste is delicious. I don’t actually know what chamomile tastes like, but I assume it to be subtle since I don’t find there to be an over-powering flavour.

As it cooled I started to notice something more and more that I referred to as laundry soap – Presumably that was the chamomile. Didn’t like that so much. Downgraded rating : (

Breakfast tea!

Because this is the thrid cold i’ve had in that many weeks I decided that I needed a destressing tea. So i picked this up to try. It smells spicy and very applely, almost like my apple and spice tea. However it tates rather bland. There is no apple taste in the tea at all. It tastes kinda like boiled leaves.

I love this tea, it is one of my favorites and I was sad to see it discontinued. I like to drink it before bed every night, it’s a good way to wind down from a busy day, although I’m trying to ration my last two boxes and keep it for when I’m sick. Chamomile has always been a favorite of mine and the combination with the apple works well. I like the fact that it doesn’t include cinnamon in it [I’m allergic] and its hard to find a good apple tea without it.

Just the right touch of apple in this bedtime tea.

This tea is amazing, especially when very hot, with light agave nectar as a sweetener. It tastes like a tart granny smith apple, with a hint of a sort of flowery honey flavour.

I enjoyed the mellowness of this tea, I admire what they were trying to achieve with the flavor, but a little disappointed they did it with “natural flavors”. Isn’t it nice when tea is made with only tea, herbs or spices.

Drank this with my spaghetti at supper. It was nice. It’s been a favorite of mine for a while, and it’s handy to carry something good in a tea bag!

Had this while I was visiting with my dad. Nice and calming.

Best chamomile ever. You need hardly any sweetener with it. I’m really annoyed that my local grocery stores no longer carry it.

Wasn’t too fond of the smell before I took the first sip, but once I did take a sip, I was pleased.
