Wow!! thank you so much for the sample Tina! this is deeeeelish!!!
It’s just like my Kalahari from Teaopia, only creamy. and sweeter, with less agave!
It truly has the flavour of creamsicle/tangerines. The Honeybush is there to but it all blends so nicely together. Maybe because I steeped for only three minutes. I usually let rooibos go for longer except I was in a rush!
It makes me think of popsicles!

Tina S.

OMG I JUST SQUEED! I am sooooo happy you loved this. It really is a tea that I can’t live without in my cupboard for long.

Indigobloom

hehe it’s awesome, it really is!!

Another one I’m going to have to try! I love creamsicles and I’ve become pretty won over by citrusy-type teas but I do like ones that are sweet! It being a rooibos is a plus =)

Indigobloom

Yes, I agree. Rooibos rocks :P
Creamsicles were never my fave but I would never turn one away. I prefer the more tart popsicles myself!

drank White Lemon by The Tea Haus

I hadn’t had this one in ages, so now that I’m trying to dig through the collection I pulled it from the back and dived into the pot. It’s still a favourite of mine, as I remembered with first sips. Straight, the flavour is light and a lovely blend, with the tea flavour dominating, hints of lemon and cream teasing in the background. After about half of the pot I added a small amount of sugar, and this is when the lemon blossoms, coming out to the forefront.

I react to some whites badly, and this one has none of those negative effects. It’s a quality tea blend, and an amazingly great price for it.

Still in love with this one. It’s great for later at night when I want a mellow cup to enjoy as I calm down from the day. The fact that it gets better with a resteep is just a bonus!

Sounds lovely!

Tina S.

It definitely is, I highly recommend it to anyone and everyone!

Okay, I’m pretty sure I’m addicted to this tea. It’s just so deliciously creamy and light and exactly what I was hoping for when I ordered it. This time I did two steeps of the leaves, and the first cup was lovely but the second? Perfection. The tea was light and mellow and while the lemon cream flavour was definitely there as well, they worked together and yet individually to make for one amazing cup of tea. Now I’m wondering what a third steep would bring me . . .

Indigobloom

was it vanilla-ey? lol

Tina S.

Creamy, so I guess you could say there was a hint of vanilla to it. I suspect yeah, it would have made your tummy cranky.

Indigobloom

Hmmm. Well I guess it’s good that I avoided it!

Daddyselephant

I’m intrigued! is The Tea Haus in TO?

Tina S.

@Aisling Sadly no, it’s in London, Ontario. They do online orders though and are amazing with their customer service both in person and online.

ChibiiCherry

Hrmm…I’ll definitely have to check it out if I’m ever in London! Or just order it online at some point…it sounds delicious

drank White Lemon by The Tea Haus

Oh yum! This tea smells divine. Totally and utterly like lemon cream heaven. I got ten new teas in this shipment and this was the one that screamed to be tried first.

It brews to a lovely golden colour, and smells as lovely as the leaves. First sip and I enjoyed it muchly. The cream and lemon are there but so is the tea flavour. If anything I’d like the lemon to be a tad stronger, so I may try a longer steep next time to see what happens.

Halfway through the cup I’m still enjoying this, with the lemon cream being the main body of the tea. The tea itself seems to be in the first and afternotes, but still it all blends seemlessly into a lovely cup. I can see myself enjoying this one in the evenings or on those days I just need something to relax with. Definitely a keeper and I wish I’d ordered more than 25g now! Especially since I see myself sharing this one tomorrow at the Tea Guild.

Was a bad bad girl tonight and had this one again, as a latte, but using 35% cream instead of milk. There are no words except for . . . NOM!

Oh Honeybush Orange, why are you all gone now from my collection. Now I will have to do another order. What a hardship!

I discovered this one as a sample two orders ago from The Tea Haus. Since then it is a staple in my collection. It is the most amazing orange tea I have ever had the pleasure of sipping, and whether straight, sweetened, iced, or latte-d, this tea is absolutely amazing. The only reason I didn’t covet my last cup of this was because I promised myself I could order again when I got my collection under 50 teas. The end is starting to come into sight!

If you like orange teas, or flavoured honeybushes, give this one a try. I seriously was ever so glad I did!

The taste is nice, but I’m not too fond of the type of white tea they used for some reason. Maybe the peach is a bit too strong. I tried this tea called Beijing Sunset sold by Sun Yat Sen Garden in Vancouver, and was hoping it would taste the same but the peach taste was more realistic and less acidic in that one.

Even though it’s described as an “afternoon blend”, I really prefer this tea as my first cup of the day. It’s very smooth, and the jasmine gives it a perfect amount of awesome. I’d like the bergamot to be a little stronger, but that’s just personal preference.

Very buttery and creamy that lasts for lots of steeps. I find I use less tea then normal since it can come off to strong especially on the first cup. Milk Oolong are a fav of mine and this one make it much more affordable to drink. Thank you Tea Haus!

I’ve been re-infusing the same leaves all day without any noticeable loss of flavour. In my opinion it’s a high quality, genuine Milk Oolong. I must be on the 6th steeping now ( at least ), and there’s still a noticeably creamy, butter-like aroma and taste, with the floral notes coming slightly to the forefront. It pleases me greatly _

Smooth, buttery oolong with light but distinctive orchid notes. The creamyness remains prominent through multiple infusions. Very reasonably priced.

drank Lime Fizz by The Tea Haus
13 tasting notes

I always feel apprehensive of edging my little ‘tea rating’ circle to the 100 percent spot on the meter, but this tea deserves little else. Lime Fizz is an herbal tea, first of all. It’s available at a little place called the Tea Haus in the London farmer’s market and it consists of herbal tea leaves, dried lime rinds and peppercorns, as well as some other things I can’t recall.

As for the name of the tea, they have a very particular way of putting the ‘fizz’ in. Teas are not meant to be carbonated, at least I think so… so instead of adding sparkling water or anything of the sort, they simulated the ‘fizz’ through adding ginger and pepper. The crackling sensation of the ‘hot’ in this tea gives the illusion and tingle of it having bubbles, and the extra peck of ginger adds that ‘je ne c’est quoi’. Clever!

The steep time is a bit high at eight minutes, but it’s certainly worth the wait!

Boiling 8 min or more

My friend said that this reminded her of Christmas (the combination of chocolate and mint).
Regardless, this tea is quite good!

This one was a nice surprise to me – lovely blend of currants, chocolate, grenadine and vanilla (and I don’t usually like vanilla in my tea!) This one is quickly becoming one of my favorites – very distinct flavour!

This one is my all-time favorite. I look forward to my daily cup of it! It’s not HOT hot, but just slightly warming, with a lovely background of chocolate. I found David’s Tea’s chocolate chili version not very chili at all, but this one is just perfect!

A good black tea with very nice vanilla flavouring. I prefer it with organic cane sugar, but it is drinkable without.

I keep forgetting that I’m making tea, and it ends up being room temperature.
