Single bag from a tea box. The scent reminds me of the orange spice teas I’d drink as a kid! The strongest flavor is clove. It’s actually really tasty warm. I don’t taste too much orange, but the spice combination is mild and pleasant.

The blueberry flavor is pretty authentic and tasty! The black tea goes with it well. I don’t really taste any elements other than blueberry and black tea, but it does a good job at those flavors. It goes well with milk. This one is simple, but impressive.

I’m always on the lookout for a nice blueberry black tea — wishlist, yay!

I don’t love fruity black teas – blueberry is one of the few exceptions!

drank Winter Spice by Twinings

Thanks to tea-and-cats for this tea! The chamomile base is really pleasant, and the spices are light, but really nice. I’m enjoying a cup of this warm. It’s a little fruity. I taste a nice chamomile, a little apple, and a mild warm spice. I’d consider getting a box of this for work!

Even though it’s mild, I have really been enjoying this of an evening.

I liked this one a lot too!

drank Jet Black by August Uncommon Tea

I bought this tea for my sister, and I tried a few sips. The coffee flavor is very present and authentic. I don’t get much flavor from the black tea. If I concentrate, I can taste a little hazelnut. I’ve preferred the DavidsTEA coffee blends so far since those are more heavy handed with their supplementary flavors.

drank Rainy Day Chai by Cuppa Geek

This needed to cool so that I could appreciate its intricacies. Now, I taste some mild spices along with some nice floral hints. Actually, I taste more floral than spice, but I enjoy the floral flavors. It’s nice with some milk!

I haven’t seen or heard anything from CuppaGeek. I hope shes okay

AJRimmer

I hope so too! I miss her!

Michelle

I sent her a FB message as I was enjoying Peppermint stick (one of my favorite Cuppa Geek teas) and that I hoped she’s doing better. She replied with her thanks.

Thanks to tea-and-cats for this tea! It has quite a tart, fresh lemon flavor. It’s a bit heavier than some lemon teas, edging toward medicinal, but still decent. It tastes like there’s a hint of hibiscus or something similar in here, making the flavor a little deeper. I enjoyed a cup of this cold.

drank Kris Kringle by Adagio Teas

It’s fun that one of the tinsel teas is decaf! I didn’t include any marshmallows in the cup. The flavor is desserty, though I don’t really get chocolate. It’s closer to coconut? It tastes better as it cools, but it’s nothing super remarkable. The flavoring is too mild, but with milk, it’s an okay cup. Surprisingly, I’m pretty into the resteep. I made it with almond milk and sugar free vanilla syrup, and that really pepped it up.

drank Wookie Cookie by Happy Turtle Tea
2300 tasting notes

With this name, I expected this to taste like cookies, but the ingredients include lavender, figs, and currants, so I was interested to see how it would turn out. The flavor ends up tasting 100% like boba. I gave a sip to someone else, and they also said boba with no prompting from me. I’m bummed the tea box only had enough for one cup because this flavor is so fun! It’s pure liquified boba. The second steep tasted every bit as amazing. I even steeped it a third time, which was still tasty, but had lost some of the magic. I drank this a few days ago, and I’ve been thinking about it (even bringing it up in conversations with family members) ever since.

This combination is a little weird, but I sort of enjoyed my first few sips. It’s fruity, but there’s also some warmth from the turmeric. After a while, the turmeric becomes a little harsh for me, and it’s a shame because the peach is so nice. Bleh the turmeric gets grosser the more I drink of it. It’s becoming so harsh and bitter boooo.

drank Mocha Chai by Bird & Blend Tea Co.
2300 tasting notes

I bought this for my sister and tried a few sips. I taste the coffee, and I get a bit of a tingle from clove. The flavors do feel a little muted, like the coffee, black tea, and chai elements could all be stronger. And I don’t taste chocolate at all. It made a pleasant latte, but it didn’t really stand out.

I’m an event planner who always has multiple mugs of tea beside me. Hobbies other than tea include board games, video games, cooking international dishes, science fiction, hiking, jigsaw puzzles, tap dancing, reading, listening to podcasts, and playing with my troublesome kitties.

Favorite flavors: dessert flavors, nutty, melon, mint, strawberry, anything rooibos-related.

Don’t prefer: Smoky, rosemary, savory flavors, floral (other than lavender), plain tea.

I always drink flavored tea, and preferably caffeine-free or black. I’ll try just about anything though! Let me know if you’re interested in a swap!

My ratings are kind of meaningless, but basically
90-100 pretty perfect
80-89 really good
70-79 good, but not the best
60-69 okay, but probably not for me
1-59 varying degrees of dislike
