  • Wuyi Da Hong Pao

    

    This is like a bit more developed version of the Fujian Rain oolong I drink all the time from adagio. It's a little more subtle on the mineral notes, and it's got some warmer undertones along with it.

  • Ceylon Sonata

    I like the smoothness of ceylon teas over other black teas in a lot of cases; this one is pretty good, but I have had another from elsewhere that is a little sweeter and smoother.

  • Ali Shan Special

    

    I thought this was fine; it is milder and butterier than my usual mineral forward oolongs. I will probably stick with the latter but this was nice to try

  • Formosa Pouchong

    This makes a good, flavorful cup. Delicate flavor, but it isn't weak.

  • Blood Orange

    A sweet and zingy tea, more intense favor than I expected. It has a really lovely pink color as well

  • Masala Chai

    

    This is decent- not a bad cup at all, though I think the amount in the communitea bag was inadequate. I think I brew my own chai a little stronger on all counts

  • Thai Chai

    

    This was not my favorite; while I do love a very strong chai, this one seemed off kilter. The cinnamon and peppery flavors were so strong that it tasted like I steeped a couple sticks of Big Red gum with it

  • Ginseng Green

    

    Great daily green with that mellow spicy note from the ginseng and ginger, paired well with a little lemon juice

  • Milk Oolong

    

    I was a little underwhelmed for the price, but that may just be me not loving milk oolongs. It is indeed a very full bodied tea but I don't pick up the milk/butter flavor others talk about, or really much distinct flavor total. Maybe it'd taste better with filtered water but I haven't tried that yet

  • Earl Grey Green

    

    Tasty every day green tea blend; I got off my bergamot phase after this bag but it was a quality green tea with lots of that earl grey flavor!

  • Jasmine Chun Hao

    

    This is a solid green tea- I am a little partial to another one that has a stronger jasmine punch for iced teas, but this is a nice, delicate one for hot teas. Still plenty of jasmine flavor!

  • Fujian Rain

    

    The first loose leaf oolong I tried! I have a lot to try right now but it's my daily go to. Decently priced, and it really does have notes of rain. Refreshing for a hot tea

  • Honeybush Chocolate

    

    One of my favorite caffeine free treats- I often use it as a base for a DIY bedtime tea with chamomile and valerian mixed in, or as a treat in between coffees during the day. It's good on its own, it's a little dessert with milk and sweetener. It's in the name but it's a more mellow, honeyed drink than regular rooibos

  • Formosa Bai Hao

    

    A nuttier, more honeyed flavor than than the more mineral oolongs I'm used to- I like it. I think I do pick up a note of spice at the end, too

  • Always Nuts

    

    Tried this today through a trial of CommuniTEA; I'm not huge on herbals but this is delicious, especially with a little milk and my half packet of saccharine. The pretty rosy pink color really sends it. Might get a bigger bag of this on my next order

    Rather new to good green teas, but this is so lovely in such a different way from my jasmine greens. It's definitely got that smokey note, but I also found it quite vegetal and a just a smidge sweet. Good balance of flavors!
