great coconut taste
Preparation
I can taste the green tea more than the black in this. The Green Tea is strong and earthy. Paired with the pineapple and papaya the three ingredients slapped me in the face and woke me up this morning! After I sipped a few more sips I enjoyed this more. It does have floral qualities and the kiwi is also noticeable. This was different but good.
This is unlike ANY Rose Marzipan that I have ever had and I like it!
At first I really thought the Almond and Cardamom MADE this because they worked really well together…but after sipping this a few more times I realized that the vanilla does contribute to the smoothness of it…it’s subtle but serves a purpose. I was also trying to figure out what the delightful little fruitiness was I was tasting and came to the conclusion that it was the Lychee…very nice! The Rose is throughout the sip and on to the aftertaste and isn’t over done…it’s just right! This is quite aromatic and flavorful! This is a nice Rose Marzipan!
A very good Earl Grey. The flavor is smooth and strong – a solid black tea base with a pleasing level of bergamot. The jasmine notes are subtle but enhance the sweeter floral qualities of the bergamot. This is one of the sweeter Earl Grey teas that I’ve encountered.
Very nice!
Preparation
Light on aroma but not on taste! This is very nice! The spices are JUST RIGHT for me! The cinnamon is a little bit stronger than the ginger. The cardamom and cloves are in there too as well as the black pepper. I appreciate they are not too strong. I can taste floral notes as well! The rose petals are a nice touch. The vanilla is noticeable in the middle of the sip and more-so as it cools. This is a good chai, indeed!
When I received this package in the mail, it was abundantly fragrant! I could smell the teas before I even opened the package.
The flavor is very nice – the chocolate has more of a savory flavor than a sweet one – which I am sure has just as much to do with the spices (especially the chicory) as it does the chocolate.
Not my favorite rooibos blend but I’m still enjoying it.
Preparation
Anyone else having problems adding new teas today!? Hum…anyhow…
This is very tasty! I’m not really picking up on that much chocolate…mostly a chocolate aftertaste, I suppose, but the Peanuts, Almonds, and Orange are a nice ‘during sip’. And the Coconut is quite noticeable in the aftertaste as well. This one is different and good and nutty!
I’m always up to try Orange Chocolate ANYTHING – being from Buffalo and all! When I received an assortment from Sands of Thyme today I HAD to try this one first!!!!
This smells much like Orange Chocolate right out of the package. Once infused add spices to that aroma and that is what you have! It’s medium brown in color post infusion.
This tastes like Orange Chocolate and cardamom. It’s a really good taste. It’s not heavy on the dark chocolate aspect but that won’t interrupt me from enjoying this d-Lish Cuppa! Ahhhhh!
It’s shaping up to be a nasty, rainy day here in the Bluegrass. And rainy days translate to pot after pot of Earl Greys for me. I had actually set this one up last night anticipating the weather, so it was waiting on me when I rolled out of bed. I really enjoy this blend; the bergamot scent is so very strong in the dry leaf, but is much more subdued in the actual brewed cup. Very, very nice to have on a rainy Tuesday morning.
Preparation
Found this on artfire, and couldn’t resist trying out a new Earl blend.
This is a rather nice blend. It’s creamy, and the bergamot is subtle, but very well-done. Definitely one of the better Earl blends that I’ve had.
I even got a sample of another tea from the company. My only complaint is that neither tea was labeled, so I had to go to the website and guess which tea was my sample based on the pictures. So that does knock the rating down a bit for me.
