100 Tasting Notes
Unknown steep time provided with tea. Steeped 2 minutes. Tea smells like dehydrated blueberries with some cinnamon undertones. Warm water taste, not a lot of substance. Would drink but wouldn’t re-purchase. Tried 10.2018
Flavors: Blueberry, Cinnamon
Preparation
Has a barely citrus flavor. Tea steeped light pink, very thin color. Drinkable, but mostly tastes like warm orange-y water. Didn’t want to steep very long initially d/t other fruit teas becoming bitter – steeped 3 minutes.
Tried again and steeped tea 5 minutes. Tea smells like orange medicine. Taste is a stronger citrus flavor, good and drinkable. Tried 10.2018
Flavors: Citrusy
Preparation
Steeped 1 min with some dunking. Good flavor without bitterness. Could probably steep longer but was afraid of bitterness like with the blackberry tea. Tastes like warm raspberry water, pleasant. Tried 09.2018
Flavors: Raspberry
Preparation
Very bitter after 3 min (lower end of brew time). Tried again after steeping 1 min – still very bitter. High caffeine content. Online tips: better in blends vs. on its own. Tried 09.2018
Flavors: Berry, Bitter
Preparation
Drinkable, but not necessarily enjoyable. Tastes like unsweetened berry water. Not sweet, but not bitter. Does not induce any puckering. Might be better with citrus, or a sweetener? Would require a LOT of sweetener. Soaked 2 sachets in a pitcher for 12 hours. Tried 09.2018
Flavors: Berry, Tangy
Preparation
Doesn’t contain any tea leaves. Has a strong, solid peach smell, and doesn’t lose the peach smell as it cools. It’s like drinking flavored water but not in a diluted/gross way. Tastes great hot. Would be great mixed with other teas. Steeping less than 5 minutes = too weak. Tried 09.2018
Flavors: Peach
Preparation
The sheer number of ingredients made me wary, but they complemented each other nicely without being too strong or confusing with competing flavors. The peppermint might have stood out the strongest. Overall the tea was soothing and would be great with an upset stomach. [Also contains mullein]. Tried 12.2018
Flavors: Lemongrass, Peppermint
Preparation
The lemongrass ingredient made me wary, but the pineapple and lemon balanced it really nicely. There was no overwhelming lemongrass smell or taste. Tried 12.2018
Flavors: Lemon, Lemongrass, Pineapple
Preparation
Similar in taste to Republic of Tea Cuppa Caramel Cake, but has more of a fruity smell
Conflicting tastes and smells between fruity and rich, resulting in a 5/10 rating.
3-5min steep advisory. Tried 12.2018
Flavors: Caramel, Fruity, Vanilla
Preparation
It tasted strongest of rooibos with some licorice. The amaretto was detectable in the scent. It was overall a gentle rooibos tea. Less sweet than the Republic of Tea African Rooibos.
Recommends adding a dash of milk or mix with hot frothed milk for a lattea. Tried 12.2018
Flavors: Almond, Licorice, Rooibos
