I got my Nina’s Paris order from Amazon! I figured I would order a variety of teas to try out, so I got one black tea, one green tea, and one rooibos. There are a ton of blends that I want to try from them, but I hope this is a good starting point. I’m so happy that all of their teas are available on Amazon in the US, for $9-10 for 50g with free shipping.
I feel like the name is half of the reason I chose this tea (it means magician, and specifically the feminine form). I find it charming for some reason, and it makes me picture a cutesy anime girl magician with a top hat and fluffy rabbit. I have no idea why, it’s a strange association for me to have… I’m not even really that into anime. :P
Anyway, this is a piña colada green tea. Coconut is not generally one of my favorite flavors, but I do enjoy it occasionally, and it’s tasty with pineapple.
This is yummy! I’m glad I have a reason to like it other than the name, heh! The coconut is definitely the stronger of the two flavors, but it’s lovely and creamy. I do taste the pineapple as well, and it’s not tart but it does have a nice refreshing and juicy pineapple flavor that complements the smoother coconut well. The base tea is extremely mild, just adding a subtle and sweet grassy note to the blend, as well as a bit of body.
I’m very happy with my green tea choice! I see myself ordering more Nina’s teas in the near future. :)

Grand Amour was a really good one, and their plain vanilla was a grown up version with heft. Pour Mamman was really good, too.
I was thinking about Grand Amour. The three I ordered to try first are Je t’Aime, Magicienne, and Taurus.
So anxious to try more of their teas! I only tried Nina’s Japon and it was very good, but I’m not sure I’d want it again. It was very “caramel popcorn” like. Magicienne sounds wonderful! And I definitely have Grand Amour and Pour Maman on my list. Any thoughts on Marie Antoinette?
If you’d like, I can send you samples of the three Nina’s teas I bought (Je t’Aime, Magicienne, Taurus)!
Regarding Marie Antoinette, I haven’t tried it recently but I’m quite sure I wouldn’t like it since it’s rose-based…
I was thinking about maybe organizing some sort of simple Nina’s Paris group order where we order say 10 teas and split them among 5 people or whatever.
