Another tea box tea. When it’s warm, there’s a strong unpleasant flavor that’s difficult to pinpoint. I can taste the peach also, but that secondary flavor is enough for me to not enjoy this cup very much. There’s supposed to be ginger in here too, but I don’t notice that too much. Once it’s totally cooled, the artificial flavor dissipates and I can taste the peach better and even a little of the ginger. This one turned out to not be so bad after all. Not great, but not bad. Just drink it cool.

I don’t love turmeric in teas, but there were few enough non-caffeinated teas in the tea box that I figured I might as well try them all. It’s not too bad, but as usual, it would be more pleasant if it were just ginger. Instead it’s slightly dirty ginger. It’s warming with just a touch of spiciness. The more I drank it, the more I did start to enjoy it, strangely. I guess what I’m saying is I wouldn’t not drink this again.

I’ve been loving candy cane teas, so this one had to be the first tea I tried from the tea box. The flavor is quite lovely. It’s like drinking a candy cane. I have to say that I don’t notice the green tea, which is fine with me. The candy cane just comes through deliciously. Wonderful.

The pear flavor here is pretty good. The rooibos is a little musty. The spices are mild. It’s not a great tea, but it’s enjoyable enough. I get where the cinnabon flavor is going.

This was pretty weak. The jasmine flavor came through a little, but it largely tasted like water. Maybe this is because these teabags contained less leaf than others from Teapigs. Also, according to the label, it’s 99% green tea and 1% jasmine flowers, so maybe they need to increase the jasmine flavor in future batches.

This tastes a lot like hot cinnamon spice. The main flavor is the spicy cinnamon. I don’t really notice the apple. Really it’s pretty indistinguishable from the other blend, though I haven’t had that one in a while. Not really a tea I would drink often since it’s pretty one dimensional to me.

I love the dark blue, almost black color that this brews up. I didn’t know how I felt about this flavor combination, but it tastes better than I’d imagined. The berry flavor is mild, and the mint fits well with it. However, the mint is the overwhelming flavor, which doesn’t really seem right for a tea of this name. You’d expect the flavor to be a lot crazier. It’s mainly mint, and I’d sooner choose many other mint blends over this one. Thanks to amandastory516 for sending this!

This tea is pretty sweet and tasty. Not really creamy or caramely, but it’s a pleasant sweetness, and the rooibos is perfectly nice. It’s not super special, but no complaints really.

The main flavors here are a slight tartness and a jello-like flavor. I’m finding myself wishing I hadn’t bought so many large bags of fruit tea from a company I hadn’t ordered from before, though I hear their pure teas are much better. This isn’t bad, but it’s very generic.

I used to drink this tea at our weekly tea and conversation gatherings in my hall at college, so it’ll always have a fond place in my memory. The flavor is simple, but warming and pleasant. It’s mostly chamomile, though the sweetness is accomplished in a way that’s different and interesting. I don’t like honey generally, but it works in the flavoring here. I enjoy all the chamomile offerings from Celestial Seasonings, but this is my favorite.
