I think Twinings has got to be one of the top three entries in my tea-you-just-can’t-ruin category.

Nice green tea with vanilla notes on the finish.
I will be looking to buy another box come Thanksgiving/Christmas time.
Nicely done for a bagged tea.

I did not think it was possible for hot tea to taste like ice cream. But it does!
This is so tasty. I just love it.
The chocolate is sweet and not so over the top chocolate. Nice.
The strawberry is juicy and luscious. Very Nice.
The vanilla brings creaminess to this blend. Sweet:)

Boiling 8 min or more

As Picard would order: “Earl Grey (de la creme) HOT.”
Finially, an Earl Grey that I like!
This one is mild in bergamot but BIG in creaminess. Love the scent of vanilla wafting from my cup:)

If you like cinnamon, you may like this. If you want a mild black tea that can be drank without any additives, you may like this. The orange is not present in this tasting session, the cinnamon and clove are all I taste, that is ok with me, I like both of these flavors in tea. Overall, I like this tea. It reminds me of simpler times.

drank Gingerbread Orange by TeaFrog

I am generally not a rooibos fan, but this one is drinkable. A good caffeine free choice for night time drinking. With this particular tea, I am left wondering “where is the gingerbread?” All I taste is orange, that’s not a bad thing, just wanted something more comforting.

A beautiful tea full of bright orange shavings and plump cranberries. If I chose my teas based on dry leaf smell….this one smells of perfume to me, I would not purchase this tea. Once brewed, the perfuminess goes away and you are left with a juicy tea. This is really delicious hot, but it really shines as an iced tea. The flavors are bright and crisp. I highly recommend this tea:)

drank Pyramid Teabags by PG Tips

Snow on the ground:) PG Tips in my cup. I am enjoying the robustness of this blend more and more. Someone once said in their tealog that tips were similiar to GM Sinharja, I disagree. Tips are more robust probably because of the Assam in the blend. Sinharaja is much milder in comparison to tips. Sorry, just me rambling on about tea. Both teas have a permanent place in my cupboard.

PG Tips is just the ratty blue jeans of cupboard teas. Everybody needs to have some :)

Second infusion today, I added Hazelnut creamer to my cup. Delicious! Now, I really remember why I loved this tea so much. You can add different flavored creamers and get a totally different cup of tea. Don’t get me wrong, the tea is good all by itself…I just like the versatility of this tea:)

STAY CALM AND DRINK TEA

Steam rises from a cup of tea

and we are wrapped in history,

inhaling ancient times and lands,

comfort of ages in our hands.
