Wissotzky Tea

This tea has a pleasant smell and taste. No doubt, this would probably make an excellent iced tea. The green tea in this is almost indistinguishable from the flavors of the berries and passion fruit. The passion fruit gives this a lovely taste and smell. There is also, despite not being present in the tea’s ingredients, a slight guava taste.

I always carry hot water in my tea thermos and my pandora’s tea bag pouch when I am on the go…unfortunately for me, I left my tea bags at home today :(

In tea desperation, I picked this one up at a discount store and I must agree, Its pretty good for what its worth. Of course, you have to be prepared that you are not going to get the best green tea but the ginger flavor comes out clean.

Its refreshing :)

Wow, It’s been a while since I’ve been blown away by a tea, and a bagged tea, at that.
On opening the package I immediately got a strong smell of chocolate liqueur (although there is no actual liqueur in it). I do believe i could get happily intoxicated just by smelling this tea.
I made it with a little touch of milk, and it does really taste just like a truffle, a caramel liqueur filled chocolate truffle, intensely chocolaty sweet and very creamy. The smell mellows a bit after brewing, but is still very strong and enticing.

The blending of Assam with Rooibos seemed a little odd to me at the beginning, but the overall taste is outstanding.

There are a lot of really good teas, but every so often I drink a tea, and think “WOW, that is GOOD tea”. That hasn’t happened to me since I first drank 52teas Sheri’s Blend.

It’s funny, I can only find this tea at discount stores, and pay next to nothing for it, but I really enjoy it. I find it quite clean and refreshing.

I don’t exactly have this tea, I have it in the loose tea variety. I am not a big green tea lover, have to be in the mood, but I do go to this one when the mood hits

Smooth, spicy chai. Even the ginger works.

A very straightforward, robust cup of tea, no frills. Sweet and with milk, a very good first cuppa in the morning.

The peach flavour comes through nicely, the caramel isn’t too strong against the other ingredients. A very soothing blend.

Second tasting note, this time in the morning. Wonder if that matters.

The smell: cinnamon. Comments about the cinnamon smell from others in the kitchenette at work. The taste: heavy on the cinnamon, then the orange, apple and rosehips come through.

Afternoon tea – a very light fruity herbal.

Was perfect to finish off a nice meal, good fruit flavour.

A strong chai with cardamom and sage to give it extra body, goes well with or without milk
