23 Tasting Notes

Green Tea & Lemon from Twinings
67

Sipping this right now, green tea is perfected when lemon is added. It is also a great metabolism booster, combining lemon water and green tea extract!

Earl Grey from Central Market Classics
65

Had this at a restaurant with some lemon today… It was very nice
I love Earl Grey but never had it with lemon, which turned it into quite the feel-good tea.

Citrus Lavender Sage/Opus Rouge Blend from Teavana
67

I love this. I’m in love with this tea. It was a large sum of 50 dollars but worth it. The mix of all the fruits make it distinguishably fruity but not like any fruit in particular, it has its own personality. The dry scent is also marvelous. This tea makes me want to lay back into a hammock. I think the tartness is what saves this tea from being overly fruity. It is splendid and everyone should try it. It is great when hot, and don’t make a small portion like I did because you will really want more!

Mint Medley (Herb Tea) from Bigelow
67

Not exactly a mint tea… it’s not too minty but it’s still very good! It’s very relaxing.

Pomegranate  Pizzaz from Bigelow

Just was grocery shopping and saw this assortment pack of Bigelow Tea. I don’t really like Bigelow but it was between that and Tazo which I’ve never been a fan of. Bigelow is what I used to always drink when I didn’t know any better, so it’s also rather familiar to me. Anyway I got it and decided to try Pomegranate Pizzaz first, mostly because of its name. It doesn’t do much for me, it tastes almost exactly like other berry teas I have tried by Bigelow. It doesn’t stand out to me, but it’s good, it doesn’t taste bad. I don’t know why but for some reason with most berry teas I feel like I’m drinking hot juice. It just doesn’t feel like tea. The aroma is fantastic and layered, but the flavor contradicts the smell. It tastes just like berries, not even distinctly like pomegranate. I guess if you like berry teas try this, but I would much rather be drinking Chamomile, Peppermint, Earl Grey or English Afternoon right now.

Hibiscus Apple from Argo Tea
63

This tea is so beautiful. First of all, I didn’t even need to use a drain. Then as it was cooling off, it gave off this flowery and subtle aroma, and the color is lovely. A warm purply fuchsia. Every sip I take is full of the scent and the color and alas, the taste. It’s sweet and tart. I am happy that I have this new tea. It’s best when it’s hot, and you can steep it for as long as you want because it doesn’t get bitter. Definitely try this! I am increasingly inspired with each sip, this tea is just positive.

Cranberry Apple Zinger from Celestial Seasonings
22

I am drinking this again, and it doesn’t please me as much as the first time. I think I may have overrated this, I think I was in a positive mood or something? It’s hard to rate tea because love tea so much and I often find every tea amazing. I think a good tea is one that is strong but subtle with unique flavors. I like a tea that tastes like tea, if that makes sense. I love really herbal-earthy teas, and I don’t have many in my cupboard, because I am a little child and my parents buy me fruity teas, so I think I have accustomed to them. But sipping this right now, I realize that this is not what I desire, I have just gotten used to this blandness! Sure it’s sweet, and nice by all means, but it does not give me the same feeling a good tea should give. I know I sound like a huge hippie tea drinker right now, but I think most of you will understand. It kind of feels like I’m drinking hot cranberry juice. So there’s my rant, and I decided I am going to go tea shopping.

Cranberry Apple Zinger from Celestial Seasonings
22

Celestial. I love you. This is just great all around, it’s tart, but in the right way. Sipping on this, I’m trying to come up with more words to describe it but it just slips in my mouth and leaves it happy.

Bedtime from Yogi

Yuck. All I can say is yuck. A tea is a tea, so I always love it, but I would rather not drink this again. This tea was only unsatisfying and made me have a sickish feeling in the back of my throat. Yogi tea has yet to impress me…

English Afternoon Tea from Ahmad Tea
84

Woke up at 5:30 today.. I would have died if not for this tea. I think I’m gonna make it a regular morning thing. :o woaaah plans …

English Afternoon Tea from Ahmad Tea
84

The dry scent of this tea is incredible, it’s fruity, flowery, and just lovely. Oh and it also tastes great! I’ve always been a big fan of black tea, and this just made me fall more in love… I also love how it says exclusive tea on the box.. :p.. Everyone should give this a try. I usually don’t add anything to my teas, but it’s pretty good with some agave.

Pure Peppermint from Twinings
67

I am a huge fan of any peppermint tea, but I must say, this is a little plain, I can barely taste the mint. It’s refreshing though and I could see how it’d be great iced. I would love to drink this during the day on a winter morning or something. Maybe it just isn’t as nice since I’m tired out… Good nightt tea people :)

Cranberry & Ginseng from Bigelow
35

Had this with my breakfast today with a little honey. It’s not too bad, and I love how they tell you how long to steep it on the package. It’s not amazing though

Premium White from Stash Tea Company
100

Wow, this has an interesting taste, it’s incredibly smooth and I love it. It tastes a little nutty … I can’t really describe my feelings to this.. IT’S SO GOOD THOUGH! It is a really light tea.. I made my friend make me some when I got to her house.. just so I could add a tasting note… hahaha I’m buying some of this soon.

Blackcurrant Black Tea from Twinings
92

I loved the hint of sweetness in this, usually black tea has a bitter taste but this was a perfect blend. I grabbed some of this as I left my house to a friend’s. It definitely made my morning better, and made it easier to deal with my cab driver. I am a big fan and will be drinking this more often….

Decaffeinated Hot Tea from Lipton
98

Alright do not judge me, I know this tea is nothing special on it’s own. But it is perfect for making your own tea creations. At camp this summer, I had no tea, so every morning, I would mix my lipton tea with cranberry juice, honey and sugar in the raw. It was so sweet but the cranberry juice also made it tangy. I recommend you try this, it was such a hit. One of my friends even made me make him a cup every morning too. :)

Honey Tea from Culinary Teas
100

I love this. I drink honey tea when I want something sweet, mostly on mornings before school and it’s so tasty, even when it isn’t hot anymore!

A Me Sooo Horny Tea Blues Tea from Adagio Teas
35

This… is a denomination to teas all over the world!!! Tea is a sacred thing. However, I hear it tastes good so I will try it, for the sake of my taste buds, and to broaden my cupboard.
STILL, you fools better stop making fun of tea. I will find you…

Day & Night Sex Booster from The Tea Set
51
Organic Green with Citrus & Gingko Iced from Harney & Sons
92

I like this it smells so good and it tastes so unique and relaxing.

Druidentrank from Sonnentor
72

I’m surprised that nobody has left any tasting notes for this tea yet. It is so good! My friend from germany sent me a box. I wish they sold it in New York. It’s minty and nice… I don’t even know what flavor it is because it says it in German…!!! :’( Sipping this right now :D

Stomach Ease from Yogi Tea
34

I don’t know why this is in my cupboard. It tastes weird and doesn’t make my stomach “eased”.

Irish Breakfast from Twinings
76

My shrink gave me some of this today, and I bought some at a store near my house after. It has an interesting taste, and makes me feel happy inside. A true tea. The warmer the better!
