Light and fruity tea with a pleasant aroma that’s not too cloying. Makes an excellent iced tea, too!

drank Earl Grey Creme by Teavana

I love Earl Grey, and this version is full and creamy with lovely vanilla overtones. I still add milk and sweeten it, but even without milk it’s very smooth. I drink this regularly in the afternoons when I’m craving chocolate.

drank Masala Chai by Teavana

Teavana is often a bit too bold with flavours, but a few of their staple teas really hit the mark. I steamed (okay, microwaved) half a mug of milk, and then steeped an extra-strong brew to add to the milk. The result was creamy and delicious!

Nice, strong cup of black tea.Very good with milk, and the Assam gives it a nice jolt without being too overpowering.

drank Melon Oolong by Lupicia

I agree with aug3zimm – this tea is very cantaloupe-y and juicy, and yes, pleasantly weird! :) I think I would like this better as an iced tea, rather than a hot tea, but it’s still very tasty and not too syrupy-sweet.

I love this tea. I drink this tea often. It’s just dang good tea. Robust black tea with a distinctive taste that goes fabulously with milk. MMMM.

I put milk in everything (even darjeeling), so I like ‘em hearty. Tealuxe’s version of Earl Grey is fabulously creamy and smooth. I LOVE this tea!

I visited a friend this past weekend and drank this as both an iced and hot tea. It is lovely and smooth, and the vanilla tastes like vanilla, not some chemical extract.

Tea’s Tea is the only bottled tea I can drink, and the Golden Oolong is my favourite. Honest, awesome tea!

Designer, photographer, gardener, and rabid locavore. Tea? I’ll have mine with milk and sugar, please. :)

I adore the silly ostentation of ordering tea in a restaurant. Coffee? Yeah, you get a mug and a saucer of cream packets. Tea? Oh, let us break out the wooden tea box, and get you a tiny little platter with a teapot and a mug and all the accoutrements…

If you are into swapping tea, I’m always happy to ship a sample of my cupboard in exchange for new and interesting teas!
