The Republic of Tea

chilled with soymilk, sweetened with sucanat. VERY good with the sucanat!

with soy

cold, with soy

again, with soy, with dinner

a nice breakfast drink on the drive into work (with soymilk)

I made a pitcher of strong, sweet chai, to mix on demand with soymilk. Delicious!

I have a canister of this that I’m working my way through. It’s a nice chai alternative.

I love this one. It brews up a pretty purple color. The acai is flavorful and fruity, but different.

Refreshing, Refreshing, Refreshing! Bitter sweet under tones with the classic mint flavor. Wonderful!

Forgot to log last week! LOVE IT!

I drink all my teas – as is – plain. This was a FREE SAMPLE for ordering a catalog. It’s very dark in color. Scent and taste are a little above average, but I really like it. I’m sure this will be good for more than one steep.

Nice almost floral aroma almost reminiscent of a first flush Darjeeling. Rich honey flavor very smooth. I like this tea a lot.
Steeped at 195 until leaves began to sink. I bought this bulk from Central Market for around $110 / lb

Still enjoying these. I brew at 195 for about 1min adding 20-30 sec for each consecutive steep. I usually get about 5 cups.
My favorite thing is that they are pre-sized, so i just drop it in the infuser and go, no breaking / measuring, etc…

First Pu-erh I’ve tried, so I can’t compare it to others, but It is very good.
Nice smooth woody flavor and convienent single cup balls.
I got this in bulk from Central Market, distributed by republic of tea, but I can’t find mention of it on their website. $110 / lb.
First steep 200 deg for 2 min.

Nice oolong with good flavor that develops over several steepings. Very clean finish, and smooth taste. I buy this bulk from Central Market.

Great tea, nice jasmine flavor not to strong, really good iced. I get two good steepings out of it at 3 min at 175 and 4 for the second. Third steeping is a little thin even at higher temp or longer steep time.

Nice flavor, great hot or over ice. Taste is similar to a mild Longjing and makes a great everyday tea. I buy it in bulk at Central Market and always keep some on hand.

Went to a local coffee shop and had a HUGE travel cup of this! Still can’t get over the aroma! LOVE it!
