I opened this tea a month ago, and as soon as I smelled it I was like nope, gotta wait until I’m actually sick for this one. So hurray (kind of?) that I finally get to try this. The smell of the dry leaf is definitely stronger than the steeped tea. There’s a mint flavor that cools your throat, but other than that, I don’t notice much other flavor. I prefer Throat Coat when I’m sick. This one doesn’t actually make my throat feel better.

Additional notes: I think I’ll switch my opinion to say that yes I would recommend this tea. When you add milk, sugar, and vanilla, it actually tastes like quite a nice dessert tea. It is a bit cakey and chocolatey. And you can rebrew the leaves for a second tasty cup. I’ve tried this a few times, and I like it a bit more each time. Plain, still nah, but with the right additions, this is nice.

Finally getting around to trying this tea from tea-sipper. It’s a pretty light earl grey. I always make my earl greys into lattes, and it’s well-suited to that. I think I prefer the black base to be a little bolder, but other than that, this is a solid cup.

The hazelnut flavor is pretty nice, but I taste no cinnamon. This makes a good latte. I ordered this because the combination of flavors sounded fun, so I’m slightly disappointed, but it’s definitely a decent tea if you ignore its name.

I ended up with a tin of Paris sachets after my sister bought it and didn’t like it. I finished a four ounce tin of Decaf Paris in a shocking amount of time earlier this year, so I figured I could easily take care of her problem. Paris is good, but I won’t order it again. It has too much black currant for my liking. Fruity black teas just aren’t my thing. So this is tasty, but I’ll be going for decaf earl grey in the future. Best enjoyed as a latte!

This one smells unpleasant, so I kind of procrastinated taking the first sip. At first I was unsure…but I think…I like this? It tastes like an orange-filled chocolate, and I feel like they made that fake orange flavor pretty accurate. The chocolate isn’t very strong. It’s more like they’re placing you with the idea of chocolate than actually giving you any. I bought this to give my dad since orange chocolate is his favorite combo. I wouldn’t buy this again for myself, but I hope he likes it! Regardless, this would taste better with a black or herbal base. I kind of like the earthiness, but I don’t need it.

This tea tastes mostly like apple, which was actually a relief since I’ve had a more accurate turmeric tea in the past that was pretty unpleasant. I’m not a huge fan of apple teas, but this one did taste pretty good. I wouldn’t order this again, and I’m not even sure why I ordered it in the first place. I’ll refrain from rating this tea since I’m not its intended audience.

This unique tea was sent to me by Mastress Alita. It’s definitely strong! I first tried it with just sugar, and got a strong taste of rooibos followed by black tea with a whisper of butterscotch underneath. I immediately added milk, and wow that really brought it all together. It tastes caramely and butterscotchy, and you can’t taste the rooibos anymore, it just supports the other flavors. There’s no bitterness. This one is very, very good. I would drink this all the time if I had more!

This is a tea I do not understand. Everyone seems to love it, but every time I get it in a sampler, I’m always so bored by it. It smells nice when brewing, but the flavor is so weak, even though I use way less water than usual and steep for longer. Without sugar, it tastes like nothing. With sugar, it tastes…I guess lightly nutty? I’ve given it several tries, so I’m giving up!
