I got this tea completely for its name, and smell alone. C’mon. Play on names? Why not? Firstly I’ll say I can really taste the green tea, after that is a nice raspberry – or berry in general taste. I got a nice piece of raspberry in my tsp so that’s a good thing. I also really liked seeing all the leaves expand, since there’s oolong in this as well. This is a good tea in general. I like it.

This is probably my favourite Steeped Tea. I really love the raspberry flavour to this, it makes it unique. Especially since I hate regular earl grey. I really love this one, though.

Having a cup of this fall tea on this windy afternoon. It’s not a favourite, but I need to finish my skinny tin. It’s an alright tea, it has that muffin like taste, with the orange and cranberry – I’m just not really one to drink ‘muffin’ tea.

I got a sample of this from a friend and am now trying a hot cuppa. I think it has an almost equal amount of orange and chocolate flavour. I’m enjoying this, it’s a pretty good tea.

Used a free cup of tea on this, cause I hadn’t tried it before. I think it steeped to long, cause it was very strong. But still drinkable. I had agave in it, and it tasted earthy and malt like. I’ll have to have this again before I decide if I like it or not. Next time I’ll steep it for less time.

Flavors: Earth, Malt, Sweet

It’s a very fine tea, so you’ll need a good tea bag, and (perhaps) a short steeping time. The quality should be ok, though.

I’m trying this lovely treat tonight, and it’s quite sweet. I don’t drink hot chocolate often, but since this has tea infused… why not? It’s fudgy and chocolatey, and I’m not sure it resembles pumpkin chai to be honest. Maybe a tiny bit. Nice to have as a treat, anyway.

Flavors: Chocolate, Marshmallow

This tea sounds delightful, but there’s this toasty note I am not a big fan of, right when you take a sip. Maybe I should try it iced before I judge… But steeped at 85 degrees for 2 mins, its just okay. I taste the tangerine, but it’s more from the tangerine oil in it. There’s also the fact that this is just an old tea and it’s not as fresh as it was in its ‘youth’ haha

Flavors: Citrus, Toasty

I was craving this tea recently and it took me a while to find it hidden away with all my other tea. But I found it and had it as a latte, and man, it was so delicious. I hate coffee, but the chocolate goodness mixed with the mocha candy was greaat. Perfect latte.

Flavors: Chocolate, Mocha, Sweet

I wish I could give you my extra 45g tin. I didn’t enjoy it as much as I thought I would.

Whoa, first sniff hurt my nose. This tea smells super spicy! Sniff with caution. I hesitantly brewed myself a hot cup of this today and added some sugar. Surprisingly it’s not as spicy tasting as it smells. Instead its a lovely blend of spices I actually like. I taste the cinnamon, and maybe the black pepper. (I’m not too good at distinguishing different spices.)

Flavors: Black Pepper, Cinnamon, Spices

drank Coconut Calypso by Steeped Tea

Backlogged. I tried this at a Steeped Tea party and was completely sure I would hate it – because I hate coconut. But to my surprise it doesn’t taste as coconutty as it smells. I finished my sample cup, and even had a couple more cups. It’s very light in flavour and doesn’t have an aftertaste, which is good. I wouldn’t buy this one, but it wasn’t bad at all.

Flavors: Coconut, Smooth

Hi, I’m Michelle and I am pretty much obsessed with tea. Some people say I have a problem. I mostly drink DavidsTea – but I am open to trying other ones too.

Things I LOVE in tea:
-Fruits (especially peach, melon, strawberry, banana, berries etc)
-Chocolate
-Lemongrass
-Cinnamon

Things I don’t MIND in tea:
-Stevia
-Vanilla
-Pineapple
—Mint & Peppermint

Things/ingredients I HATE in tea:
-Coconut (Rare exceptions)
-Nuts (Some exceptions)
-Caramel/toffee
-Earl Grey (Bergamot)
-Rice/fennel
-Coffee beans
-Bamboo
-Lavender

I am quite picky with my teas. If the primary ingredients are mixed with something I don’t tend to like – I will try it and its possible I’ll like it. But if the tea is mostly/primarily something I hate – I won’t even try it.
I mostly like Herbals, Green, Oolong, White and Black teas.
