From Bigelow

“Green tea is pretty simple. It’s green tea. What makes ours so special is that we use only hand-picked tea from high elevation gardens and then we gently process it, bringing out that natural flavor people have been enjoying for centuries. Our tea is not harsh, not too grassy but smooth and very delicate…easy to drink and enjoy the whole cup.”

I oversteep this tea or use two bags in order to get a decent flavour out of it. It’s pleasant and very smooth. If I feel frisky, I’ll grab a bag of Oolong and steep them together for five minutes in an 8-ounce cup and add a drop or two of clover honey. I believe that honey and tea are God’s two greatest edible gifts and I rarely have one without the other.

I had low expectations, but this set the bar even lower than previously believed possible. The tea was extremely vegetative to the exclusion of all other possible flavors. Multiple infusions did nothing for it either.

This tea is not bold in flavor but there is enough green tea taste to make me yearn for another stronger, more brazen cup of tea later on. The flavor is even and consistent. However, I was overcome with an urge to inject it with sugar, honey, or anything, to wake it up.

It’s tea. That’s about all to be said for this one. It’s not a bad green to accompany food without getting in the way of it, but certainly nothing to write home about. I have to admit it makes me a little nostalgic though, as it reminds me of some of the cheap green teas I enjoyed as a student in Japan. I wouldn’t seek out this particular brand, but I certainly wouldn’t say no if offered a cup.

Very satisfying. This cup is nice and clean. Perfect for the first helping of the day.

This is a pretty basic cup of green tea, it may not be the best cup in the world but it is far from the worst.

Rating this as an average between the bags (bleh) and the K-cups for my Keurig machine (tolerable).

The bagged version of this didn’t taste like anything special to me – just a typical light flavored green tea. We had this in our kitchen, but most of us tea drinkers have decided it isn’t for us.

The K-cup version seemed to have a stronger “green” taste to it, which was acceptable enough for me to drink but I don’t plan on ordering another set of Bigelow Green Tea K-cups again.

Very simple green tea. Great for a quick craving or if you’re on the go. Fairly bland flavor, but it still tastes decent in my opinion.
