I like this one much more than other “spice” teas, mainly because of how mellow it is. In comparison to other pumpkin spice flavors, this one is very smooth and drinkable without any harsh cinnamon flavors, and there’s just a hint of creamy pumpkin flavor to balance it out. I bought it on clearance at Target, and i’m pretty happy with my purchase.

Yep, this is a weird one. At first I loved the roasted, warm flavor… but eventually I grew tired of it. It’s a nice change of pace from the teas I usually drink, but I think my exploration into chicory tea is over.

Watermelon and barley. Two flavors I never expected to work together. Leave it to Lupicia to turn that combo into a winning cup.

Malty roasted barley and sweet watermelon candy. An absolutely ingenious combination. It takes a bit of getting used to, but once you start to sip (I prefer iced, but hot is lovely) it gets addicting.

Flavors: Malt, Melon, Roasted Barley

A refreshing minty tea that is heavy on the spearmint with just a hint of creamy vanilla. I found a canister on sale at Dean & Deluca for 50% off, which is a bargain for the quality of the product. I probably wouldn’t have purchased it at full retail price ($30 USD) but at $15 for three ounces of lovely tea, I’m very satisfied.

I have to agree with other reviewers: there’s not much hazelnut or vanilla flavor in this tea. It’s much more of a cinnamon/herbal flavor, with little nut/vanilla taste to go around. As a spiced herbal tea, it’s decent. But it fails to convey the two flavors that it lists on its box.

Smack yo’ mama good.

I had the pleasure of sampling several White Lion teas during my stay in Vegas. Satchets were provided each morning of three different flavors, and White Ambrosia left a huge impression on me. Absolutely delicious, full of incredible juicy pineapple and sweet toasted coconut flavor. White Lion tea may be expensive, but they’re a perfect example of “you get what you pay for.”

Flavors: Coconut, Pineapple, Vanilla

A surprisingly nice flavor. Refreshingly chocolatey, a bit of spice but never overpowering. Add a little cream and it’s an excellent dessert.

Flavors: Chocolate

I had a cup of this iced at a local Teavana store, and it was just okay. I’d imagine it tastes better when warm, because the butter rum-esque flavor with an odd tang doesn’t translate well to iced tea. I’ll try it again as a hot tea, but I wasn’t impressed.

Flavors: Butter, Rum

Preparation
150 °F / 65 °C

I’ve only had this hot…which I liked. But oy…I don’t think it would be good iced at all. What was Teavana even thinking xD

One of my favorite hot teas. Heavy on fig and blackberry notes, it’s very soothing and warm for winter.
