I REALLY like this one. It’s rich, creamy, minty, and has a touch of cocoa in the background that I love. I think it’s one of my favorite mint chocolate blends now. I’ll definitely need to re-buy this before the holidays.

This has been… okay I guess? It’s not really strong of any flavor. I’m not sure if it’s watery or under steeped so I am going to try it again later. Going to be sad if I splurged on Tea Forte and it ends up being mediocre.

So, I really like this one… but I couldn’t tell you why. Like many of the other reviews, I think that the amount of flavors in this blend make it a bit hard to distinguish, it is quite tasty. I like Rose, I like raspberry, and I like bergamot. So what’s not to like? Sure, I could do with some more bergamot or… maybe I need to find a raspberry Earl Grey blend (let me know if one exists). But hey, maybe its the broken AC in the office making me freezing making mediocre tea surprisingly good or… maybe I’m in the minority of people that would re-purchase this one.

I… really like this tea. I didn’t think I would considering the unexpected spices… but it is perfectly balanced for me. I guess I’ll need to grab more when I go to Canada next week if I can.

NEVERMIND!!!! I really like this tea, it was the timer’s fault. It was wildly overstepped!!!

Honestly, I still don’t love this… I’ll drink it but I think I placed it. The base is too astringent and the lavender is bitter. IDK if there’s artificial flavoring for lavender or if there’s too much, though it doesn’t look like it. Some how it is worse the second time. Maybe it needs to be a latte.

This is a nice blend but not as good as I was hoping it would be. I quite like lavender and I like cream teas. This didn’t necessarily hit the spot. It was a bit astringent and strong black tea heavy which I don’t mind usually but when I expect one thing and taste another it is a little disappointing. That being said, I might try to steep it a little lighter next time and see if that changes things. Though, I don’t think that this will be a blend I will be repurchasing from Murchies.

This is a really nice Assam. I’d actually never had an Assam tea/blend straight before. I’ve always made it with milk and/or with sweetener. This was malty, bready, sweet, and cozy… especially with the oddly cold weather we’ve been having in NY.

I love this blend, I didn’t realize I had it… its in a tiny ziploc so I must have gotten it in a swap but I love this… definitely need to get more for the fall/winter months.
