Another great tea sent to me from MissB. I’ve not had too much in the way of citrus, especially as a main flavor profile, but somehow she knows what to send :) Thank you!

As I often do, I was looking for something with black tea in it this morning. This one caught my eye, and I was up for something new. I’ve read several peoples reviews on this one in my short time here on Steepster so I was eager to give this one a try when I finally got over my cold.

I enjoyed that I could taste the nice black base tea in this one well, combined with a creaminess & chocolate, and a finishing touch of orange… Like you get in those orange chocolate candies at Christmas I notice everyone references when they talk about this tea. Now I don’t like those little orange breakable chocolate balls, but this, this was yummy. I just got a hint of the orange citrus in the end of the sip and it was a surprise and refreshing twist on tea for me. I was a little afraid with some of the reviews I had read that this would be too much like that candy treat, but I found it quite good version of that which I could go back to and enjoy again.

I’m not sure what to look for as far as the marshmallow goes as I’ve not had much if any of it in tea, but I do find this to have a hint of creamy sweet tones that I assume are a reflection of that.

Hubby took a sip and wasn’t impressed…. Go figure, we are opposite in so many ways and our tea choices are no different… most of the time. I could see myself putting this on a future order when I want something a little different than my norm that stretches my normal flavor profiles a bit.

Flavors: Chocolate, Orange Zest

37 yr old wife and mother who left her day job to take care of our son. Now running a property management business with my hubby.

I grew up on Lipton -hot w/milk & sugar, Lipton iced w/fresh spearmint and sugar, and Celestial Seasonings Sleepytime … Don’t criticize.

I came across Good Earth Original Sweet and Spicy out of chance and it spurred my interested in trying new teas because it was a flavor I had never had before in a tea. I’m now new to the world of loose leaf teas and looking forward to learning what I like as I journey through some new flavors. Hubby has always enjoyed the occasional cup when we’ve been out and about at restaurants.. now we will find out what good teas are really all about! On with the adventures!

Still relatively new to loose leaf, but I’m learning… Coconut, cinnamon, chai, chocolate, mint, & pineapple are just a few of the flavors I enjoy. I have found that I can do green teas so long as there are other flavors as well and it isn’t the primary flavor. I have only found 1 rooibos blend that was too woodsy for me, most of the time the base is hidden or blends well enough w/flavored versions for my liking. I’m beginning to enjoy fruit teas more and more. I occasionally like a straight black tea.

Hubby likes milder flavors, any base, berry flavors, sweet aromas, sometimes tart, and or floral, and chocolate to my surprise! Almost the opposite of me.. go figure!

My 8 year old just took interest and loves root beer.. so far Butterbeer is a hit, but we haven’t tried any root beer or cola teas yet.. soon thanks to the Marvelous MissB for sending some samples. He enjoyed Winter Nog (Della Terra) recently, but turned away something else I gave him.. darn if I can’t remember now what it was!
