Stash, Organic White with Mint
7
Bottom Line:
Minty!
It definitely has that white tea taste that I normally enjoy. There is just a slight hint of mint, not really enough of it, but I suppose that is better than way too much. I can't taste the lemongrass at all, which is fine since its only on the ingredients list rather than the description on the box. The tea is smooth and light, making it easy to drink. There is no fragrance one the tea is made, but the teabag itself smells of spearmint.
Bonus points for all ingredients being organic.

Bigelow, Vanilla Caramel
Bigelow, Vanilla Caramel
7
Bottom Line:
Vanilla + caramel = good for someone who doesn't normally like black tea.
With two of my favorite flavors, I had to try it. It definitely feels like caramel when its going down my throat. There isn't much of an aroma to this blend. It tastes just like a caramel chew if it were a liquid. I can barely taste the vanilla, same with the black tea. I can't imagine drinking this as an iced tea. Cold caramel doesn't sound all that appealing. I imagine this would go really well with milk in it, and I imagine it would be good for someone who doesn't normally like black tea. It's good, and I could grow to like it, but its not really my flavor.
It got a bonus point for the packaging being printed with vegetable based inks.

Celestial Seasonings, Lemon Zinger
Celestial Seasonings, Lemon Zinger

Bottom Line:
It could be better
Where's the zinger? I can taste the lemon, barely. Too bitter for my tastes too. Not smooth or easy. Even after those complaints though, I would still drink it. Granted I would rather have something else, but its not bad.

Oregon Chai, Vanilla
Oregon Chai, Vanilla

Bottom Line:
Drink the original flavor
Not as good as the original. I've been told it makes my breath smell good though. Still tasty, but I can taste the tea even more than I could before. Also, its much more sweet and light than the original blend, and has less spices in it, or at least they aren't as noticeable. It still goes down well and I would still drink it every day.
