Silver Needle
A very lovely and light flavored white tea. Perfect for when you need a gentle, calming cup.
-
Jasmine Chun Hao
I didn't care for this one, I didn't find the jasmine flavor to come across like their other jasmine teas.
-
Honeybush Vanilla
It's ok, but to me the vanilla very light. I wanted to use it to add some vanilla to blends but the flavor isn't strong enough to come through.
-
Blackberry
A very nice tea, with a perfect flavor balance with the berry and the black tea. It gives it an almost sweetness that's very enjoyable.
-
Snowbud
A nice and simple white tea, perfect for when you want just a little bit of flavor and great for blending with other things. I mixed mine with the dried orange pieces and it was wonderful.
-
Decaf Mango
I did not care for this tea, the mango flavor was very light and the decaffeination process gives it a flat and unenjoyable texture.
-
Jasmine Yin Hao
An enjoyable tea with some definite jasmine flavor but not quite as much as I'd prefer. Also tended to turn a bit bitter.
-
Peach Oolong
I did not overly care for this tea, I know it has natural flavor but the smell and taste were so strong that to me it seemed very artificial.
-
Matcha Sticks Traditional
I enjoyed the flavor, however the caffeine kick from it had me feel like I was vibrating. Much more caffeine than I'm use to, and I didn't care for that part.
-
White Eternal Spring
A wonderful tea with a great blend of flavors. It is very appropriately named because it has this mythical feel to it.
-
Ali Shan
It was ok, I wasn't nearly as impressed as I thought I would be though. It did have a bit of a creamy vanilla note which was nice. But I still prefer the jade oolong.
-
Dewy Cherry
It was ok, but tasted similar to most of the fruit blends with hibiscus, where the flavor ends up being primarily hibiscus. You could pick up some cherry notes though.
-
Berry Blast Iced Tea
I didn't really care for this tea, but that's mostly because the blueberry flavor is pretty pronounced as one of the main notes and I don't like blueberry.
-
Formosa Oolong
A nice and flavorful oolong, a bit more oxidized than I prefer though, but that's just my personal preference and nothing to the actual flavor. It was still an enjoyable cup.
-
Wild Strawberry
It's ok, I've had it hot and iced and when it's hot the strawberry flavor definitely is more prominent. When it's iced the hibiscus flavor is much more overpowering.
-
Spearmint
This is a very nice mint tea, it was a lightness to it but still plenty of flavor. I also like mixing it with peppermint.
-
Cream
A very lovely tea with the perfect amount of cream flavor to make it special and delicious.
-
Chocolate
I did not care for this tea because I did not get much chocolate flavor from it. It mostly seemed like a strong black tea.
-
Vanilla Green
One of my favorite green teas by adagio. The flavor is perfect and smooth, complements the green tea well. Great for a gentle morning cup.
-
Citrus Mint Green
This was a nice refreshing green with a good balance of flavors. The citrus could easily be tasted as well as the mint.
-
Sencha Premier
A really good sencha, softer and smoother than others for such a lovely taste. A perfect plain green tea.
-
Dancong Aria
This was a lovely and relaxing oolong, but I didn't really get the floral notes. It was a nice smooth tea though that was great for afternoon.
-
Lemongrass
A light and lovely herbal, the smell reminds me of fruit loops. Combines well with other teas too to give a bit of a lemon kick.
-
Peppermint
My favorite herbal, so nice when you need to cleanse your palate or ease your tummy. Beautiful bright and intense flavor.
-
Mambo
A tea that really took my by surprise, usually I don't go for bolder flavor black teas but the oolong in this lightens it up and it has such a rich and wonderful flavor.
-
Hojicha
An amazing tea that took my by surprise. The flavor is toasty and nutty and so comforting.
-
Rooibos Orange
By far my favorite rooibos tea, it has this lovely refreshing orange hit to it. Be aware if you do steep too long the rooibos will become really strong and have a more medicine flavor.
-
Mandarin Green
This is a very nice tea with a lovely delicious citrus flavor. I think citrus is a perfect pair for green tea and this is one of the best I've tried.
-
Genmai Cha
A very different but lovely tea that got me hooked on Japanese green teas. I find that steeping it the full 2 minutes is a bit too long so I go around 1 minute and 30 seconds. The flavor is light and toasty and so comforting.
-
Jade Oolong
An amazing tea, my absolute favorite oolong. The flavor is fairly light like you'd expect with a low oxidized oolong but it's perfect. A sweetness and a floral hint. Is also great iced.
