I like this tea. It does smell a bit fake in bagged form, but I didn’t taste that in the cup. The hazelnut flavor was mellow, and the chocolatey flavor was a bit weak, but a teaspoon of sugar helped this tea immensely. Usually I use honey, but I thought it might be a bit odd in this tea. I can’t drink caffeinated tea in the evening, so this was a nice change from my usual herbal tea routine.

This is my favorite straight peppermint tea – it’s refreshing, and great with a bit of honey, or unsweetened. I usually drink this when I’m flagging in the evening and need a bit of perking up, but not the caffeine.

I tried this one before bedtime last week – I needed something calming, and the ingredient list was too weird to pass up. I actually found the scent of this tea to be very…strange, almost off-putting. However, when it cooled enough to drink, I actually kind of liked it!

I think the combination of herbs and flavorings go together pretty well, but I’m going to have to try it a few more times to make up my mind about it, since every time I caught a whiff I thought “Ugh!”, then with each sip I thought “Mmm..?”. Maybe I need a clothespin for my nose on this one. :p

This tea was very nice and fruity – it had a pleasant lemon flavor that was juicy and natural tasting. I didn’t even realize this had chamomile until after I drank it, so if you’re unsure about chamomile, this might be a good one to try out.

(I have the bagged version of this.)

I too was a little put off by the licorice powder additive (I hate licorice), but I went ahead and tried this tea, since it was the last ingredient in the list, and I like hibiscus. Luckily I didn’t taste any licorice tones in this at all!

The bag/packet smelled nice and blueberry-ey, but the blueberry taste was really more of an undertone in the brewed tea. It tasted more like a fruity hibiscus tea with a bright lemony taste to it – I was reminded of the Zinger teas made by Celestial Seasonings. Overall, I really liked this, but I don’t know that I would consider it to be a blueberry flavored tea.

I purchased this tea during a trip to Hawaii – I love all things guava! This tea is quite good, but it really needs a sweetener to bring out the flavor – I find a little bit of honey does the trick nicely.

The green tea is mellow, and the flavors of the guava and ginseng aren’t overpowering. I steep it for 5 minutes (the directions advise 3-5 minutes) – usually I wouldn’t steep green tea for so long, but this one seems to need it or it doesn’t come out well.

This was a tasty tea, but I would have never known it was green tea – the raspberry and hibiscus stole the show almost completely. If you’re looking for something with a distinct green tea taste, this isn’t it, but it is good in its own right as a ‘fusion’ tea.

This tea is a nice, peachy herbal tea. I like the undertones of passionfruit and hibiscus, and a dab of honey brings the fruity taste out nicely. It’s comparable to Bigelow’s Perfect Peach, but I like this one better.

This surprised me by being pretty good. It had a nice green tea/mint flavor, and 2 minutes of brewing was just right for me. It was a nice switch from the usual herbal mint tea, and the mint flavor was pleasant without being too overpowering.

This is a nice, mellow peach herbal tea. I like that it doesn’t have any added spice flavors, and it’s definitely at its best with a bit of honey to liven up the peachiness. Very soothing in the evening.
