415 Tasting Notes
The last sample I got from Tetley. When I read that there was hibiscus in here I was really skeptical, but the peppermint and spearmint overwhelms the cup and that’s all I taste. Nice. The write up on this tea says there is a floral finish and I can kind of see that as well. Mostly mint taste though, which is a good standard.
Flavors: Mint
Preparation
Another sample (which actually led me to buying a container)
This is actually what I wanted out of Turmeric glow from DAVIDs. Nice warmth and kick from the ginger, turmeric and other spices followed by a herbaceous blend. I wouldnt steep more than 4min lest it be crazy spicy. A good blend.
Flavors: Ginger, Spicy
Preparation
Re-review of this tea.
The more I drank this tea the more I disliked it. Maybe I was oversteeping but I found it to be a bit too sweet, plus any tumeric taste was hidden. Glad I used it up, won’t be a re-purchase.
(On a side note, I can’t believe I’m at 16 teas and decreasing! It’s keeping my cupboard fresh and underwhelming while still having choice. This is the season to reduce my cupboard before all of the spring teas come lol)
Flavors: Sweet
Received two tea bags as a sample. I’ve been looking at different bagged teas that are easy to bring to work and wanted to try some out so I contacted tetley and they gave me some samples :).
This tea is alright, kinda standard. Main taste is cinnamon followed by licorice root. Would drink it, dunno if I would buy it.
Flavors: Cinnamon, Licorice

Re-review of this tea
The more I drink it the more I love it. The lady at iHOT described it as a “cornucopia” of flavors- I agree. Love the mix of orange, cinnamon (and other baking spices) and a light touch of anise and apple. Very tasty. Definitely a repurchase.
Flavors: Cinnamon, Citrus, Orange
Preparation
Just mixed the two ingriedients together. My husband and I chug this by the pot full when illness strikes. It helps!
Flavors: Herbaceous, Medicinal
Preparation
Got this as a sample with my Christmas Giftcard. Thanks to the husband :)
I don’t have an ingredients list since they haven’t put this blend on their website yet but I drank the tea after it cooled off. »t had a bit of a tart hibiscus taste, a not too strong taste of cinnamon and other `baking spices`and a very strong, delicious flavouring I cannot put my finger on (strong vanilla?). This is tasty, but I prefer the Christmas Chai rooibos since it does not contain hibiscus (hibiscus to me is an iced tea thing only and I`m not doing iced teas right now).
Flavors: Cinnamon, Tart
