Bleurgh. What a disappointment. Smells fantastic, like an after-dinner mint, tastes watery and insipid. Maybe it could be saved by being blended with a robust dessert tea, but on its own I couldn’t drink it, with or without milk.

Flavors: Dark Chocolate, Spearmint

Disappointing. Smells great, love the idea, but did not deliver. Quite insipid, even when brewed strong. Might be good as an added extra for something like the T2 Melbourne Breakfast, but on its own I’m not convinced.

My favourite T2 tea. The right amount of spice, and chocolate-y without being sweet in and of itself. Of course, being chai, I tend to add honey to it. Quite robust, this tea is a fantastic pick-me-up.

Love love love this tea. It’s very sweet, however, so more of a dessert tea than an every day tea. Great with milk, I am told it is also very nice on its own. I find I want this quite strong, otherwise it’s a bit underwhelming and just generically sweet.

So-so. Smells great, a bit lacklustre in performance. Wouldn’t buy, but was very glad to get a sample, because otherwise I might have.

I was expecting a lot from this tea, and sadly it didn’t deliver. It smells divine, but that didn’t come through in the tea. Vaguely apple, vaguely cinnamon, but nothing special. I am optimistic that it might perform better as an iced tea – which is what I will likely do with the remainder.

Flavors: Apple, Apple Candy, Cinnamon

I really like this, and having drunk my way through almost 100g of it in a fortnight, now fully intend to buy the largest available quantity, and possibly in teabag form too, for work. I’m not a huge fan of overly smoky teas, but the slight smokiness in this is a great offset to the sweetness – which is also not over the top. Makes me think of sipping a hot cocoa in front of a fire. Cosy & comforting, this is currently my go-to cuppa.
