8.5/10 - harney & sons - apricot - irresistable black tea



this tea is all about apricots. if you like them, you will love this tea. if you hate them, you will hate this tea.

great aroma, wonderful flavor, strong fruit flavor, well balanced
I still have my first box, but am making steady progress.
Makes a yummy iced-tea.

10/10 - harney & sons - pomegranate oolong - flavored oolong tea



buy this tea now
great aroma, wonderful flavor, mild fruit flavor, well balanced
I bought my first 2 boxes immediately after having this for the first time.
When I restocked, I bought 10 more boxes (was panicked because they said that it would soon be discontinued. LIES!)

everyone who has tried this tea has been immediately hooked

5/10 - harney & sons - english breakfast - chinese keemun black tea



basic english breakfast tea
would make a very nice iced tea

would buy the organic version of this instead, it is much better

alas, award winning author, daryl pointed out at lunch that I need a rating system for my tea reviews.

note to self: kill daryl

teas

I have had this flavored tea sampler for awhile and have finally gotten around to trying them. decided that I would need to write down what I thought about them as there would be no way that I would be able to remember from day to day, which I liked and which I hated. so there you go. tea tea tea tea tea

6/10 - harney & sons - orange pekoe - mellow black tea



very mild orange flavor
basic black tea, nice flavor
mmmmmm made a very nice iced tea

would buy this again, but not jumping up and down

1/10 - harney & sons - black currant - fruity black tea



very mild fruit scent, even less than the passion fruit.
very mild fruity flavor. think raisin tea. a bit boring.

would probably not buy this again

2/10 - harney & sons - passion fruit - succulent black tea



very mild fruity flavor
probably really yummy if you like passion fruit. not sure that I have ever had passion fruit before, either as a fruit or in a tea.

would probably not buy this again
