Herbal & Decaf TTB

When will I learn that I simply do not like Chamomile… I’m sure this would be fabulous for someone who enjoys Chamomile but alas, I still do not. There is a bit of rose and mint aftertaste which is okay (but I also don’t like rose.)

YES! This tea is perfect! I absolutely love Mango Black teas, though I do find that sometimes the blending isn’t up to par but this one is fabulous. There’s just enough Mango flavor but not too much and the black base is very mellow. This is my ideal bedtime tea. Thank you Allan K for putting it in the box!

I saw this tea was “Vanilla Orange” so I figured I’d try it, and nope nope nope. There’s some vanilla to it (or maybe lack of other flavors), but the overall flavor of the tea is just… herby, definitely more savory than sweet to me. It tasted a little bit reminiscent of elderflower, but mostly it was fairly limp to me. I much prefer fruity or nutty teas.

I believe Allan K put this in the box, so thank you! I actually did a little research on the company and I’m definitely going to take a trip to stop by their store when it gets warmer out! As for the tea, it’s definitely on the sweeter side for me, but the mango and papaya make a strong appearance while letting the rooibos shine still. This is definitely one of my favorite rooibos blends so far! It’s a perfect blend of rooibos and flavoring which is really hard for me to find.

This tastes and smells exactly like fireballs and I’m not certain if I like it. The rooibos flavor is totally missing, but the cinnamon isn’t totally fire-y either. I normally hate fireballs and this is much more tame but still a bit strange.

This guy is a bit drying and tannic but it could just be because my experience with peach teas is limited to mostly tisanes. The peach flavor is kind of muted under the black tea.

Holiday TTB

I usually don’t go for unflavored teas but this one was in the box and I really enjoyed it. It’s not terribly tannic, but is a bit drying. I’ll have to do a bit more research on black tea types in the future.

I just got this TTB yesterday from AllanK and figured I’d have something from the box before I headed out for the night last night. This is. perfection. in. a. mug. I love tea, clearly, but I wouldn’t call this one tea. It’s much closer to hot chocolate (especially when you add a teaspoon of cream like I did) but it’s fantastic. It’s creamy (even without the cream) and chocolatey. There’s really no other flavors to it but it’s not disgustingly sweet like hot chocolate and I really enjoy that. I’m so excited to try some more things from this box later tonight after I pack up the Holidays TTB to send off!
