Enjoyed it, but will take some tweaking to get the strength right. You can taste each element individually, but it doesn't quite meld together into one distinct flavor for me.

Love this pitcher! It's the perfect size to have a couple of glasses of iced tea throughout the day, and then just start a new one that night. I do wish it came with a lid of some sort, but it's still usable.

Great mix of teas! Bought one of these for my office and everyone has been enjoying them. It's really a wonderful way to share tea. My favorite by far is the chestnut!

Love this one on its own or mixed, especially with vanilla! This is sooo creamy, smells and tastes great.

Work great! Have to fluff them open a bit first and then these are nice and roomy, large enough to hold enough tea for two cups and still give the leaves room to unfurl.

Oh my goodness, so handy and sooo good to eat on their own, too. Work great in tea, but I have to quit eating them like rock candy...

Not big on this one by itself, but definitely great for mixing with other teas!

I have to be in the mood for something pretty sweet when I have this one. Not overly minty, smells stronger than it tastes.

Good on its own, or I like to mix it with decaf blueberry for a treat in the evening!

I absolutely love these tins. I keep telling myself I won't buy anymore, and I keep ignoring myself and buying more. On the one hand I wish these were a bit larger so that they'd hold 16oz, but on the other that would make them a bit unwieldy, so I just fill these up as much as I can and store the bag elsewhere. I use full-adhesive sticky notes and a sharpie to label these and it works great!

One of my favorites! Smells so amazing as soon as you open the package, and the flavor doesn't disappoint. This one is so naturally flavorful that I can get away with just a little sugar, instead of a lot of sugar and cream like I do with many teas. Sweet and a bit nutty, pure heaven. This is the tea I like to 'show off' at work when people ask about my tea stash - I tell them, 'Smell this one and you'll see why I enjoy tea,' and their eyes go wide.

Wow! This one smells super-sweet and tastes great. Excellent for a sweet treat during the day. Will have to try it iced.

Bought this one for my husband and was glad he liked it because it is NOT for me! As others have mentioned, it smells of tobacco, which isn't a terrible smell but I don't care for the taste.

Love this one at bedtime - a little sugar and cream and it tastes like blueberry pie! Great little dessert tea.

Updating my previously poor review. I adjusted this one a bit more to my tastes and ended up REALLY enjoying it. First time I tried it, I used the recommended 1tsp per cup, plus I added a bit of sugar, and while it smelled good it just didn't seem to have any flavor. This time I used 2tsp per cup, steeped for 7 minutes, and added sugar and a bit of cream. Apparently I just like my tea stronger than I realized. Anyway - very tasty, loved it!

Interesting flavor! Added a bit of sugar to this one, need to try with a little milk too. I wonder if it's possible to steep it in hot apple cider...

I'm not a big Earl Grey fan but figured I'd try this one after the Bravo was so good. This is nice and mellow.

Mmm, I like! I do actually wish the chocolate was a bit stronger but this is good. Milk and sugar are a must!

I'm trying to rate this on the quality overall rather than my personal preference but I think white tea just isn't for me. Wouldn't turn it down if someone handed it to me, but probably won't get any more for myself. A bit earthy. The peach is nice, though.

Smells much stronger than it tastes, which I think is a good thing. My first white tea ever and I wasn't sure what to expect. It's a bit earthy.

Nice tins! It's hard to find something with a clear lid that either screws on or has a flip-tab like these do. These are just the right size for the 3oz bags of tea. The only thing that's slightly disappointing is that while they do technically stack, they don't do so tightly and are easy to knock over. Would love a version that fits together better.

Refreshing! Good on its own or blended with other herbals. I like to use this one with lemongrass and peppermint, and sometimes add chamomile.

Lovely - mellow and the chocolate-covered strawberry taste really does come through. I like this one in the early afternoon.

Nice but not super memorable. good if I just want some plain ol' tea!

This was my first-ever green tea that didn't come out of a bottle. Big difference! Maybe green tea isn't so bad after all! This particular one smells a lot more citrusy than it tastes but that's okay because I think it tasted great. I added just a touch of sugar - I usually add a ton to my tea - and liked it just fine that way, surprisingly! It's quite earthy and a little hard to get used to but I definitely enjoyed it.

Excellent chai! I really like the blend of this one, and it mixes well with other chais too if I want a bit more oomph to something else. Lovely with cream and sugar.

My husband and I own this and the larger one and love both. We keep the big one at home and I leave this one at work. Perfect! So easy to use at my desk!! Great conversation-starter too haha.

I am NOT a fan of chamomile but I'd never tried it blended with anything else before. Figured I'd give this a shot and was so glad I did - turns out chamomile is awesome with peppermint! The hint of vanilla on top mellows the whole thing out. LOVE this as a cup before bed. I add just a bit of sugar to mine.

My absolute favorite chai so far. A bit of cream and sugar and this tastes like spiced coconut milk - in fact one of these days I need to see how it is with coconut milk in it! I wasn't sure what to expect at first with this tea, but now it's one of my favorites for any time of day.

Love, love, love this! One of my favorite chais so far! Very mellow, love the hints of vanilla - they're just barely there and not overpowering like some. I add lots of cream and sugar to mine!

I'd never had a breakfast tea before and was pleasantly surprised at this! It's got almost an earthy taste to it, very mildly so. I added cream and sugar and enjoyed it immensely.

Love it, love it. Strong peppermint flavor and doesn't end up bitter. I enjoy it plain or blended with the spearmint and lemon grass teas.

Excellent flavor, though a bit heavy for summer. I blended this with the Blood Orange and it was very tasty, like a Christmas season punch! The blend made a really good sweet tea, too.

Really good and zesty! I blended this with the Oriental Spice and it tasted like a Christmas season punch. Made a great sweet tea both with the Oriental Spice and on its own. It is definitely on the sweet, almost syrupy, side, so I've been keeping the steep time short.

Maybe this one just wasn't for me, but this tea smelled a bit like lemon kitchen cleaner so I went into it a bit unsure to begin with. The flavor was not nearly as artificial but was still much too lemony for me, and there was an odd aftertaste. I gave away the rest of my sample.

LOVE this thing! I wasn't sure I could justify the cost of it but it's definitely worth it. Easy to make tea, easy to clean up. I hate wrangling tea balls so this is perfect. Glad I bought the larger size - I can always make *less* tea in the big one, but can't make *more* tea in the smaller size.

I'd never particularly cared for Earl Grey before trying Adagio's EG Bravo. now I can be certain that the reason for that was I'd never tried a truly *good* Earl Grey! A great blend both hot and iced.
