At first, I didn’t like this, but man did it grow on me! Now, I drink it when I just want a little comfort. It’s best to not let it cool too much. It’s best while still hot.

I don’t really taste the chamomile, mainly just the mint, but I love this tea.

I’d been drinking this for a few weeks, then my local store took their sweet time restocking it. I went about two weeks without it and wow, was there a difference. I hadn’t noticed my improvement, but I sure noticed my decline after stopping. The probiotics are the best thing. Seriously. It tastes great, but that’s just a perk.

It smells and tastes like a cookie! So yummy. :)

It’s all tea bags for me right now as I’m out of loose leaf and have zero cash. This is one of the few I somewhat enjoy. Still not high quality or remarkable, but with a little sugar it’s smooth and comforting.

Okay, so knowing that I SOMEHOW screwed the first cup of this tea up the first time I made it, I tried, again, and made sure to make it as carefully as I could.

This tea was included in a sampler I picked up at Sam’s Club a week or so ago. After trying The London Cuppa, I was originally in the mood to try more of the same, and so I yanked one of the bad boys from the sampler out.

Now, here’s where things screwed up, horribly. Without thinking anything of it, my ditzy self left the damn tea bag in the drink. I left the tea bag in the tea, and I somehow managed to make the most bitter, godawful tea that I have ever made. And I am sorry for the rating I made for my original tasting of this tea, which showed my own mistake in the rating itself. I know I did this, because tasting it now, I cannot taste ANY of that “bitterness” that I tasted before. So, to Bigelow Tea, I am genuinely, from the bottom of my stupid, naive heart, sorry, and I really like this tea. As in I really like it as a step up from the usual straight-up black tea that I have tasted before.

This is an incredibly strong, in my opinion, black tea that does not stand for you draining all of its flavor into a cup of hot water. Do not make the mistake I did, friends, or else this one will bite you in your mouth like the innocent fool that you are. TAKE THE BAG OUT AS SOON AS IT HITS TWO MINUTES!

This tea reminds me of happier times; of my biological father’s iced tea, which, to me, was that rare treat that rarely lived past a full day in the fridge. What I think lead to my warped previous review of this particular tea is really its strongest – sorry for the pun – point: its strength.

A really very rich black tea, this one is great hot or cold, sweetened or not. I made my close-minded fiance take a drink of this, and he said that this did, indeed, also reminded him of his childhood homemade sweet tea – sun tea.

As I said before, I do believe that my earlier, um, scathing review was due to a misunderstanding on my part. Thank you, Bigelow Tea, for apologizing for my own stupid mistake, and agreeing to let me try you guys in another tea, but it’s really not necessary – everything that I’ve tasted by you guys is delicious, and I really just appreciate the nudge you gave me to try it again – properly steeped this time around!

I think your guys’ great prices, great all around quality, and compassion regarding my own stupidity have made me a lifelong fan of your brand – I really think I’ll especially enjoy this tea, made into a really delicious iced tea that even my choosy fiance will drink.

Sorry I even had to re-write this review, but trust me, I’ll definitely be buying a few more boxes of this tea down the road.

I bought it because it was on sale and figure I like green tea and mint why not try them together. It was very bland. Maybe I’ll just stick with herbal mint teas

It was really good. A bit of a stronger tea than I’m use to, but I added some milk to make it more drinkable for me. I will continue drinking this tea that’s for sure!

I have been looking for the perfect Chai for a while. this ones good but it need more spice or something. I have kinda bad habit of letting my tea steep for like 10 minutes thinking it will taste stronger, which it does. I dont really mind the bitter taste of over steeping. a dash of milk and spoon full of honey hid any bitterness.

Oh my god, I hate this tea!

It’s one of my favorite tea drinks for when I want to drink something really cool and fresh.

One of my favorite replacement to coffee!

This used to be one of my favorite bagged varieties. I guess it still is… I like that lack of tart, that HIBISCUS that many fruity teas tend to have. This is bold and hearty, with a twinge of raspberry. I added some sweetener, to enhance the flavor.

…

OK, OK. I added it because I have a sweet tooth. You caught me!

I swear this used to be called English Breakfast. Now it’s English Teatime and there’s a pink box for English Breakfast…

Anyway, the chai didn’t wake me up enough so I went hard core. This has a very pleasant tea taste, robust and hearty. And caffeine-y.

I need to find my “fast lane” tea – that’ll get the job done.

Backlogging: Purchased some bagged teas while away last week, and this is probably my favorite of the bunch. The tea is not bitter and blends well with the flavorings. I added sweetener, and while I think Upton’s Creme Caramel is better, this is ok in a pinch.

Not the best chai I’ve ever had, but a solid and reliable option when I run out of loose tea. I do like the addition of vanilla to the traditional chai spices.

A bit too minty for pure pleasure, it got rid of my sore throat before I was even half way done. Definitely one to keep stocked for those bad voice days. As a singer, it is a must. As a tea drinker, it’s a last resort.

It smells like a pumpkin spice candle, but tastes like fruit punch.
