553 Tasting Notes
Shame on me. I’ve had this tea for a while and hadn’t tried it yet. This may just be the best herbal tea I have ever had. Sweet Cinnamon Pastry Treat. The bf and I devoured this one. So very good. I don’t see this one lasting long. We drank this while we watched Annabelle. It comforted me while I was scaring myself silly.
Flavors: Cinnamon, Pastries, Sweet
Thank you Marzipan for this one. You were right. I loved this one! Sweet honeydew with a bit of honey on the side. I wasn’t such a fan of this hot but I LOVED this one iced. So good.

Flavors: Honey, Honeydew, Melon
I can’t tell you all how much I love the name of this tea. I have been in love with the Evil Dead Series and Ash (& Bruce Campbell) for years. I really liked this tea. This is one tasty Earl Grey. Not my favorite Earl Grey but up there on the list.
But lets be honest here. . .I would have bought this tea on the name alone.
Flavors: Bergamot, Citrus
My dad & I had a lot of fun with this blend. We used some of the leftover herbs from Litehouse Foods. It was tasty. Just not to the "WOW’ point. I want to try it again. This company is so adorable and they have some tasty sounding blends on their site. Just need to try this one again.

Thanks Shae again for turning me on this company!
I’m glad you’re having fun with some of their blends! I think they’re such a neat little company, but maybe I’m biased because they are local. :) I sent a couple more of their blends your way on Saturday so you should get them sometime today.
Was super excited when my first month’s teas arrived on Saturday from Handmade Tea. I ripped open the pkg and was a little puzzled by the tea. Roasted Chocolate Pineapple Tea Mate. Yeah. . I wasn’t so sure. But the packaging was fantastic! A wax sealed envelope. So fun!
Brewed up the tea and was insanely impressed. This tasted just like a robust coffee with dark chocolate notes. I never picked up any of the pineapple but that may be just because I need to shake up the bag. Super impressed with this. So is the boyfriend. I am going to have to hide this one if I want to keep any of it for myself.

Flavors: Coffee
I love this company. I have found only a few blends that just weren’t my cup ‘o tea and those were floral ones. I just don’t really care for floral teas that much or maybe I just haven’t found the right one.
This is one tasty chai blend. Recommend it for those who aren’t fans of really spicy chai. Sweet with a kick. Added some cream and it was yummers!
Flavors: Cardamom, Cinnamon, Ginger
Thank you Shae for the sample! I really really enjoyed this blend! Crisp and Refreshing with an incredible green tea finish. I can’t find anything I didn’t like about it and am looking forward to getting more.

Picked this one up from Marzipan- I love chamomile teas but this one, I just didn’t like. It almost had an off setting sour taste. I couldn’t even finish the cup. The odd sour taste overwhelmed the tea.
