4 Tasting Notes
This was one of the few teas I have tried that I was not a fan of. There is an aftertaste that I did not like – I found out why, after I read the box – it contains stevia, which I do not like. The flavor sounded so promising! It would have been so much more pleasant if they didnt add stevia.
Flavors: Cheesecake, Strawberry
I bought this while grocery shopping, and it was on an endcap. I had never seen lavender tea before, and was nervous to try it, not sure if it sounded good or gross – I ended up buying another box once I tried it – it ended up being one of mine and my roommates favorite tea to wind down with on the couch and watch girly television. Christmas in Paris opened up a whole new window of trying lavender teas and getting excited when I see them!
Flavors: Chocolate, Lavender
I wish this tea was not discontinued – I bought this tea because I saw it contained wintergreen, which I have never seen in any teas I have ever read the ingredients on. I really liked it over the Christmas season, I am disappointed I only have two bags left, since I cannot find wintergreen tea anywhere else out there.
Flavors: Mint, Peppermint, Spearmint
Wintergreen is out there, usually sold as the crushed herb and I’ve seen it in teabags online. I recently bought online a bag of whole wintergreen leaves from the Canadian company Camellia Sinensis. While their selection of teas and tisanes is expensive, they are a reputable vendor so I trust the freshness of their teas.
I bought this from the Dollar Tree, cause the name sounded fabulous – I had my first cup, and it smelled fabulous – I love Ceylon tea. I brewed it for the max recommended time and felt like it needed a teaspoon of sugar – I normally dont sweeten my teas with anything, but once I added the sugar, it was soooooo good. I went and looked online, and they dont show up on the TEViVe website, so I guess they were discontinued. I went and looked at the other Dollar Tree in town – they had eight boxes left, so I bought five more – this is definitely one of my regular teas.
Flavors: Blueberry, Honey
I don’t mind stevia specifically but I hate it when teas are pre-sweetened! :P
