drank Licorice Spice by Stash Tea

I love licorice and I’ve been drinking this tea for years. It just tastes like licorice root to me. It’s best hot. I noticed yesterday that it develops flavors that I don’t care for as it cools.

drank Chai [duplicate] by Twinings

Not an exciting chai, but It’s warm and comforting with milk and sugar. I’ll make room for it in my tea drawer at work.

drank Christmas Eve by Stash Tea

When I found this at Marshalls I hoped it would be a less expensive alternative to Harney & Son Hot Cinnamon Spice, but I was dissapointed. This is weak in comparison.

drank Irish Breakfast by Twinings

This is a drinkable basic black tea, but I prefer Bigelow American Breakfast. I’ll be saving this tin for blending.

drank Perfect Peach by Bigelow
34 tasting notes

I’m not a fan of fruit teas that don’t have any actual tea, and this is no exception. I mixed this with Barry’s Gold Blend and it was pretty good. I doubt I’ll repurchase, but I’ll probably finish the box by mixing it with black tea.

This smells wonderful. I love how it makes my house smell like honey and vanilla. It doesn’t seem to have much flavor, however. I’ve been adding a bag to my cup of Sleepytime Extra for the scent, but I won’t repurchase.

I’ve been dissapointed by most of the teas I’ve tried recently. This one tastes very weak to me. I’ll probably be passing this one along to my mom.

drank After Dinner by Pukka
34 tasting notes

I couldn’t drink this. There is a flavor in this and also in Pukka Licorice and Cinnamon that I strongly dislike. The common ingredients in both teas are roasted hickory root, sweet fennel seed, and cardamom pods. I haven’t yet determined which is the culprit as I am unfamiliar with all three ingredients.

Not what I expected. I was hoping for chocolate, but what I got was cinnamon. It smells like earthy cinnamon and tastes strongly of cinnamon. Where’s the chocolate?
Maybe the water wasn’t hot enough? I need to invest in a kettle with a built in thermometer because I really have no idea. Either the kettle is whistling or it isn’t, and it takes a good 10 minutes to achieve a whistle.
So I need to try again with hotter, and perhaps less, water. I used 12 oz, might try with 8 oz. And maybe try adding milk or sugar.
I like this cinnamon tea, but when I purchased it I was looking for chocolate.

drank Intensely Buttermint by Twinings
34 tasting notes

This really does taste like a buttermint. I drank it straight today which is the way I like it best. The smooth vanilla flavor disappears with the addition of milk and sugar.
