For quite a while, i drank the classic lipton green tea. Ive tried many others and have too many kinds in my pantry that just did not please me. I was at the grocery store and thought i had a little bitnof hope to try a new tea out. So i picked it up and made it a few minutes ago. I loved every sip of it!! The price wasnt so bad but im asking for a bigger box for christmas! The ingrediants are minimal which i love to see! I drink one a day and i cant get enough! looks like i found my new favourite tea! Even if you guys have questioned buying it but arent sure, i would still give it a try!

drank Cotton Candy by DAVIDsTEA
106 tasting notes

In my mind, this tea sounded delicious, but I was disappointed by it. I got it in one of my advent calendars… I’m trying to try all the new ones that I’ve never tried because I want to put in an order here before the end of January and use my coupons. I found it plain but sweet. I didn’t taste the cotton candy. At least I can say I tried it!

Flavors: Rooibos, Sugar, Sweet

Preparation
205 °F / 96 °C 8 min or more 2 tsp 16 OZ / 473 ML

drank Chamomile & Vanilla by Pukka
39 tasting notes

Initially light like chamomile tea usually is — but unfortunately I cannot taste the Vanilla, and if left to steep too long, takes on a stronger licorice flavour that wasn’t initially evident. Maybe I’m a purist? I just don’t think that chamomile and licorice bode too well. The licorice flavour takes over the delicate flavour of the chamomile.

Still, it is pleasant if you’re feeling poorly, and the packaging is beautiful! Pukka’s box designs are instantly distinguishable. :)

My advice: don’t let it steep too long and it’s a decent cup of chamomile.

drank Petrushka by Kusmi Tea
1 tasting notes

I bought this tea on a whim at an estate sale because while I’ve been drinking Kusmi teas for ~5 (?) years, I hadn’t seen this one before and because it smelled amazing. I loved it, and was then on a mission to find it again, only to learn it’s been discontinued by Kusmi. I wrote Kusmi about this to confirm, and they said yes, but that they would be coming out with a seasonal tea that would be similar to Petrushka.

So, when black friday came around, and Kusmi offered a free mini tin of Tsarevna with any purchase, I presumed Tsarevna is the replacement. No, unfortunately not. I’ll just hope that Kusmi revives Petrushka at some point in the not-so-distant future.

Delicious. Very pleasantly surprised. Warm and very slightly spicy towards the end of the mug, a very “tamed” smokiness, excellent.

Preparation
Boiling 3 min, 30 sec

I came along this tea in a Kenyan Supermarket and was looking for a specific brand with great diffusion and taste. Since I couldn’t find my brand, i decided to give this a trial.
This Tea is #Magical!. It tastes great and brews really fast. The smell is unlike other!. I highly recommend Safari Pure Tea for the Tea lovers out there.

Its just perfect!

I made the mistake of picking this one up as a generic black in an attempt to wean my co-workers off Lipton. The mistake was not in picking it up, but rather in identifying it as a generic black. Anyone who is introduced to Yunnan Noir and switches to a more generic darjeeling or assam will be sorely disappointed. This is not a flavored tea, but nonetheless, hints of honey and chocolate are distinctive in the aroma; nearly as strongly as in Harney & Sons’ Elyse’s Blend. I would imagine that left long enough it could get bitter, but it seems reasonably tolerant of time and temperature, reliably giving a full-bodied brew with no objectionable spikes in the flavor profile. I debated rating this one up in the 90s, holding off only because I haven’t yet settled into what the bounds of my rating spectrum properly are yet, and how I’ll account for my mood and comparison across individual teas, blends, herbals, etc. But within the category of undoctored blacks, this is definitely near the top.

Flavors: Dark Chocolate, Honey

I got this tea as a christmas gift. It is a good green tea. It has a smooth and mild smoky flavor. The liquid is a yellow amber color. This tea has one flaw. It is a little bit picky with the temperature and steeping time.

Preparation
160 °F / 71 °C 1 min, 15 sec
