Had a single bag lying around and was in the mood for black tea.

Ugh. No. This is terrible. This makes Tazo’s Awake seem amazing. I can’t put my finger on what it is, but it’s flavorless and sawdusty. Reminds me of bitter cardboard. I dunno if I can finish this stuff. Lowering my rating.

Preparation
Boiling 4 min, 45 sec

Ha ha, I love the comment about how it makes Awake seem amazing. :)

What is there to say about this tea? My goodness, this is bland. This is the only tea available at the hotel in Denver I am at.

My vacation (Starting Thursday of last week) has taken me many places. I was asked by family and friends if I wanted to go to Colorado. I said yes. The next day, we were at the Grand Canyon. I had lots of fun there. Then, we went to Four Corners (four states meet at once), and crossed into Colorado. This was followed by Durango, Silverton, and Ouray. We landed in Colorado Springs, where I visited the US Olympic Training Center, and saw Olympians training before they left for London.

Lastly, I went exploring at Cave of the Winds with some Mennonites I met just before. It was great! Now I’m in Denver! I also paid a visit to the Century 16 Theater where the massacre happened. It was very sad and eerie.

Besides my vacation thus far (which still is not over), I should continue to review this tea. I looked at the tea bag, and tried to pick up a scent of tea. It smelled like nothing. So I brewed it, and smelled a bland, faint scent of cheap tea.

I could not finish my cup! I do not want to sound snobby, but this is one of the worst teas I’ve tried! At least I picked up some really great teas on my trip to Durango, and got a fresh shipment in back home. I cannot wait to review those!

Anyway, the taste of this tea was the same: bland. It tasted like I was drinking hot water with the light flavor of nothingness. Why don’t the hotels have good teas!?

Waffle Hooooouse. It’s always freezing in there, so I got a cuppa tea with my delicious, greasy food. It wasn’t horrible, just your standard bagged orange pekoe. Definitely hit the spot last night, even if I did have to use twice the amount of sugar. I will be reaching for my DavidsTea Orange Pekoe this morning, though.

Now I miss my kitty. (A ginger named Pekoe .)

This is pretty low quality and light on flavor plain. With milk and sugar, I actually did end up enjoying it. It was light and sort of tasted like graham crackers, but it was good. Although I usually prefer malty black teas, this one was a fun change. It gets really bad reviews on here, so I wasn’t expecting a lot, but it was fine!

Not aweful, but not really very good either. Pretty bland and tasteless, but the subtle flavor that does come through I did not find all that pleasant.

Love this tea! It’s mild and sweet. Not bitter. I put lemon in it and ordered 200 bags! Love it

Swiped a handful of these from Hometown buffet on our most recent outing. met my needs at the time, but like buffet food, its dry, and unappealing. Great during my meal, but now I’m left with a handful of guilt to remind me of my greed.

Loved it. Absolutely loved it, i had gotten a cup of tea from an ihop where i live and this is what i got, the tea was strong, yet not overbearing, and the taste ooooooooh it was like sliding down a rainbow on the back of a unicorn and into a pool of money, this is by far the best tea i have ever tasted

This was one of the worst teas I have ever had! There was a slightly fishy aftertaste. Yuk, yuk, yuk.
