56 Tasting Notes
I have this tea left from the holidays I’m trying to work thru them. Today is raining and its a little cold so had this tea while studying. Is not bad it has a very strong and peppermint flavor to it i also taste vanilla mind tone. I am loving Celestial seasonings new packaging I’m a sucker for presentation. will definitely try some of their other flavors. Any recommendations?
My favorite Celestial Seasonings blend is their chai. I fell in love with it after someone left a box at work, but I haven’t been able to find it since. I tried the chai from their new Steep line, but it’s not at all the same. Their True Blueberry is good too. It tastes and smells like a blueberry muffin.
This tea page is actually for CS’s straight peppermint tea. The Candy Cane Lane version is here: http://steepster.com/teas/celestial-seasonings/2148-candy-cane-lane.
Well this is a great sleepy time tea. Ingredients chamomile, valerian root and tilia estrella flower, it knocked me out every time. Plus flavor is not bad i doesn’t taste medical. This is different then their regular sleepy time i find that one has a more mint to it.
So i had this in Panera Bread while having a lunch date with my hubby. I don’t know i have always thought that Irish breakfast was a stronger flavor blend than english breakfast and to me this wasn’t the case. It just tasted like a regular black tea nothing special, It wasn’t bad for not wow either.
Its Abril 3 and yup its still snowing in Chicago. Had this lovely warming tea at Barns and Noble today while i checked some books out, This tea is cinnamon in a cup LOVE IT left with the hole tin of tea and no book lol. It really reminds me of Big Red gum back in the days
Ps:just finish my best of all no bitterness or astringent tastes to it! I’m going for a second brew =)
Flavors: Brown Sugar, Chocolate, Earth, Smoked, Sweet
Preparation
The first time i brew this tea it come out tasting like soap, so i let it sit in my cabinet for a while. I’m not a big fan on mint teas, I got this on a impulse purchase last min, i wasn’t sure i wasn’t going to like it. But it is always good idea to have some mint tea in my cabinet i tend to gravitate to them when my tummy hurt, which is the case of today. I smell spearmint i can definitely taste the gun powder as a mid-note and the jasmine as an end-note. Today I was pleasantly surprise with this one everything works great! I love it so maybe i over steeped it the first time or the temperature was to high.
Flavors: Jasmine, Spearmint
