This one contains some pleasant spices. It tastes cozy and wintery. There’s also some bitterness/drying that I expect comes from the base tea. My first sip of this was quite lovely, but subsequent sips were more medium. I still sort of like it. But it was a fun way to end the advent calendar!

This one is pretty leafy tasting. I prefer my green teas to be more gentle, but this one bodly announces itself as a green tea. Not bad, but not really my thing. If you like your green teas tasting quite green, I’m sure you’d like this.

I wouldn’t call the flavor passionfruit necessarily, but it was fruity and tasty. The main flavor was the fruit. The tea just provided a light background. Not bad at all.

I don’t love the flavor here. The main flavor is the murky green tea. The lemon makes an appearance, but I didn’t notice much ginger at all. It was quite mild and muted.

The berry flavor is quite subtle. I really wish the flavor were more clear. It’s a bit hard to tell what it’s going for, and there’s some artificiality and dryness again. It seems that Touch Organic’s strong point is definitely its green teas.

This tea doesn’t taste like much. It’s mostly water with a bit of dryness and a tiny bit of bitterness at the end. You can’t really tell that it’s trying to be apricot. Maybe this would be better with more precise brewing methods.

This green tea was pretty light and delicate. Not super appealing, but a plain, calming brew.

Had some more advent calendar teas today. This tea is pretty weak to be considered a breakfast blend. It’s sort of tasty, but not nearly bold enough.

The mango flavor is pretty authentic here. I’d prefer it as an herbal as I don’t love the mix of the green tea with the fruit. I don’t think they mesh particularly well in this case. But I definitely wouldn’t mind an herbal using this mango flavor.

Not much to say about most of these teas, but I figured I’ll give at least brief reviews for all the advent calendar teas for future reference. This tea is much more gentle and sweet than I would have guessed. It was pretty light and enjoyable.

Steepster is glitching for me, so I can only access it using my laptop, which I don’t use very often, so I unfortunately will not be as active on here as I prefer to be.

I’m an event planner who always has two mugs of tea beside me. Hobbies other than tea include board games, video games, cooking international dishes, science fiction, hiking, jigsaw puzzles, tap dancing, reading, and listening to podcasts.

Favorite flavors: Almond, strawberry, nutty, dessert flavors, melon, mint, anything rooibos-related.

Don’t prefer: Smoky, rosemary, savory flavors, floral (other than lavender), plain tea.

I always drink flavored tea, and preferably caffeine-free. I’ll try just about anything though! Let me know if you’re interested in a swap!

My ratings are kind of meaningless, but basically
90-100 pretty perfect
80-89 really good
70-79 good, but not the best
60-69 okay, but probably not for me
1-59 varying degrees of dislike
