Tealuxe

I love this chai. It is very heavy on the cardamom, but on the score of Chais that I have tried over time that are decaf, this has the rare distinction of not being “default chai flavor.” I am quite sad that I can’t get more, and that when my current tin runs out, that will be the last of it.

THIS is my FAVORITE tea of all time! Just shared with my boys + had to go try and order more…. i thought TeaLuxe was moving to online… I guess not… ordered a bunch of organic to see if I can find one that matches…. what a GREAT gift from my mom so many years ago in my stocking… loved the circular tins they use to sell them in too!

this is a great, fruity herbal tea

i really like this tea

This was a great winter/ holiday tea

One of my favorite teas of all time.

did not like. i just don’t get it.

Very happy with this as a daily tea! Strong smoky smell and flavor (duh). A strong secondary flavor of blueberry. Smooth, but with a slightly chalky texture (I’ll put up with it). Moderately dry finish.

Stands up to multiple steeps, too.

This is a strongly raspberry flavored Earl Grey. It’s exactly what you would expect from the name. I enjoy it with a piece of chocolate in the afternoon.

This is quite possibly my favorite Earl Grey. So smooth, so creamy, doesn’t need anything added to it for the absolute perfect cup for breakfast or with a mid-afternoon piece of chocolate.

This tea is sweet and floral, very much living up to its name: vanilla and jasmine. I tried this tea back to back with Tealuxe’s Buckingham Garden Party blend, which is earl grey and jasmine; ultimately, I prefer the earl grey blend since there is more complexity in flavor. This tea is simple, and a bit one-note. However, it is tasty and smooth and everything you expect from its description.

I bought this tea for the jasmine and I must say I love it in combination with the citrus cream of the Earl Grey. It is traditional, with a bit of a spring-time, lady-like twist. I drink my teas black, but I will have to make an exception and drink this one with a bit of milk, or as an iced late to bring out the creaminess.

This tea is a cup of coziness. Vanilla and earl grey together definitely give off a birthday cake-y essence. Divine with milk and sugar.

I have continued to purchase this tea for over 5 years. It’s one of the best lapsang souchongs I have ever tasted. I’ve shared it with everyone from family and friends to office mates. It has a deep smoky, bacon aroma and a dark red liquor. The taste is a compliment to its aroma and has a slightly astringent mouth feel. Highly recommended.

I ordered a fig formosa tea with brunch at the inimitable Sonsie in Downtown Boston. They are now out of stock, and since Tealuxe, a fellow local business, is also out of stock of this rare tea, I imagine that they are where Sonsie found it. I instantly wanted to order some myself, it is uniquely delicious! Rich and lightly caffeinated, it would make a lovely afternoon tea.

Very little taste. It makes the water green and using a tea ball in my mug (at work) and hot water of indeterminate temperature from the spring water dispenser, I was expecting more than just bitterness and a little mouth feel. Perhaps it would be better in a pot with more experimentation.

this tea is a delight. it’s mild, and slightly reminiscent of unsweetened marzipan (which would make sense, given it is almond flavored). It’s not a showstopper in any grandiose way, but it is always pleasant to have in your cabinet. The almond flavor compliments the rooibos more than the other flavored rooibos’ I’ve tried from tealuxe, I believe. all in all, a sturdy and worthwhile addition to your cabinet
