I love chai. I do not love coconut. This tea just isn’t so awesome for me. It smells like spicy coconut, and if you love toasted coconut you will probably love this tea. If you don’t like coconut, you won’t.

I love the way this tea smells. It is one to go slowly with because the smokiness with the Earl Grey citrus is really interesting. Pairing it with the white tea really smooths it out in the sip.

I like this tea with just a touch of sugar to heighten the rose. Otherwise with milk it’s a delicious pot of well balanced, somewhat mild black tea.

This is an interesting change from regular peppermint tea. The tulsi/holy basil blend give it a more herbal and earthy feel, less sharp and clean like plain peppermint.

This tea is one of my very favorites. The black tea is full bodied and complex, while the lavender and rose give it this strongly floral bouquet. The result is exceptionally fine. I don’t usually buy the blend with peach/mango flavors, as I find that quickly pushes it into candied tea territory, and I think the black teas in this deserve better. Very nice with a little milk.

This tea tastes like Christmas to me. The peppermint, creamy vanilla, all layered gently with a mild, non-astringent green tea, make it an easy tea to have cups and festive cups of.

This tea, with a little honey, is what gets me relaxed and asleep when nothing else will. Chamomile and other herbal notes come together to put you to bed, lovely.
