Pineapple Ginger
I really enjoyed how the pineapple helped brighten up the green tea. It didn't overpower it, but added a nice fruitiness.

ROOIBOS DE PROVENCE
Given as a gift, it's a pretty nice tea. Disappointed that David's Tea has a bad habit of adding artificial flavors and sweeteners in some of their blends, though.
-
White Monkey
This is a very light delicate green tea. Great for calm evening sipping; but make sure to steep it cooler and not too long to avoid too much bitterness.
-
Cinnamon
I got this as a free sample and it is STRONG! They do not skip on the real cinnamon here. Is a bit much for me, I like to mix it with something milder.
-
Cocomint Green
One of my favorite blends. Mint is strong enough to balance out the chocolate, and the chocolate adds enough sweetness to make it a nice afternoon treat.
-
REGULAR ORANGE PEKOE CUT BLK TEA CAFFEINE
Grew up drinking this a lot. It's common in the South for sweet iced tea. It's better if you can get the loose leaf versions and not the bags. Don't know why they list it as decaf. Need a lot of sugar to make it good. It is startlingly bitter and flat if unsweetened.
-
Green Pekoe
A solid green tea staple, a bit more bitter and less robust than some other blends that I've preferred (like sleeping dragon)
-
Vanilla Iced Tea
I think this one has been discontinued. Which, I don't mind. I worked my way through a set of pouches, but just never could get it to taste quite right. Too bitter without sugar, but adding sugar just made it strange, and the vanilla always tasted artificial.
-
Wild Strawberry Iced Tea
Not as strong or as flavorful as the Blood Orange, but a decent second choice when I want a flavor change.
-
Blood Orange Iced Tea
So far the best of the iced tea pouches I've tried. The orange really comes through and gives a bright, clean flavor. I prefer this one unsweetened.
-
Yuletide Toddy
Better when mixed with something else. Not quite strong enough to stand on its own, and tends to get a bit more tart/sour when steeped longer to try and pull out a stronger flavor.
-
Brigadoon Breakfast
A favorite of mine, a twist on classic Breakfast blend. I like the addition of the silver needle, especially; and it makes a nice strong brew that stands up well to a bit of milk.
-
Valentines
Even if you're not a big fan of dessert teas, this is a great tea that keeps the sweetness in check with bright acidity from the berries. Very beautifully balanced.
-
Sleeping Dragon
A favorite green tea, very assertive if you're not familiar with deeper green/vegetal flavor of whole-leave green teas. Has just a touch of bitterness, but can be moderated by lowering water temperature and shortening steep time. Really high quality!
-
Organic Very Berry Herbal Tea
Really good raspberry-blend tea, well balanced tartness and berry flavor.
-
PARIS
Wonderful fragrant black tea with smooth and mild taste. Had this at a very nice restaurant and was instantly impressed!
-
Moroccan Mint Green Tea
A lovely strong mint tea. Good clean flavor, very minty, and doesn't get bitter easily even when left to steep too long.
-
Premium Green Tea
A good bagged green tea. It doesn't get bitter too easily, but has enough grassiness to not be flat or muddy.
-
English Breakfast Black Tea
A good staple morning tea; nothing terribly fancy, but always a good go-to.
-
Organic Lemon GInger Tea
My go-to lemon ginger blend. Has a bit more ginger kick than other brands, but not overbearing.
-
Lemon Zinger
Old favorite, but recently have been finding it a little light on the lemon flavor - usually have to add a squeeze of fresh juice to it for better balance.
-
Dragonwell
A very grassy and earthy green tea, it's really important to not have your water too hot or steep overly long or it can easily turn incredibly bitter.
-
Lemon & Ginger
Pretty good Lemon & Ginger blend, not as good as Stash, and I wish both had more ginger.
