TEA ReX

Tea Rex! Cute.
I think I get a little apple from this… I think. Mostly what I’m getting is grass and a something reminiscent of petting zoo feed pellets. A little cruel, I know. It really does taste like I put a handful of those things in my steeper tho. :/

Tea #1 from Another Traveling Tea Box

There’s supposed to be apple in here?

I really actually get a lot of roasted, tobacco-y flavor from the saffron flavor, which was entirely unexpected and not altogether pleasant. It wasn’t quite enough to turn me off the cup completely, though.

I think this might have been an okay tea if it were balanced better and, well, tasted like apples.

Tea #15 from Another Traveling Tea Box

I didn’t particularly care for this and found both the scent and flavor to be unapealing. It lacked any sort of apple flavor and had an off taste to it.

“Another Traveling Tea Box?!?!”

Both the base and apple flavor were a bit bland. I tried adding honey to bring out the apple, but no success!

I had a cup of this with lunch at a local cafe (Simplyummy). It was a decent cup of tea. For local folks, Simplyummy is one of the best places in town to get a cup of tea. The baristas have been trained on how to make a proper cup and they even use timers!

Just had a cup of this with lunch. It’s certainly a cranberry tisane! I barely tasted the rooibos at all, and just noticed a hint of orange. If you’re looking for a punch, but want something herbal, this is a good choice!

Another find from the recesses of my tea cupboard. I really enjoy this tea, and the shop that I used to get it from is no longer physically there (I think it exists online, though)… I’ll have to figure out how to replenish my supply!

made a pot, will enjoy four cups or so in the next few hours.

making a cup now to take with me to a meeting.

Always delicious, and no need for sugar. A nice, decadent, afternoon tea.
