I got a tin of this at Target yesterday. It’s not bad, for a rooibos blend, & another step in my quest to find palatable evening teas.
Not something I’ll probably ever buy again, but I’ll drink it until it’s gone.

I wish Target sold H&S here! Target Canada blows.

It really does….there is so much more the US stores have. I am grateful we have them, as I do think they’re an improvement on Zellers, but still…get with the program TC. And vendors. (It’s partly the vendors’ faults for not wanting to change packing for Canadian standards).

I’ve heard so many positive things about the US stores. You’d think changing the packaging wouldn’t be that much of a pain. Hell, a few weeks ago, I bought a bag of gingerbread m&m’s, that was lazily rebagged with a Canadian labelled bag over the American one. H&S could just print different, Canadianesque stickers and slap those on. Done!

I am pretty sure that the harney and sons teas sold in chapters stores here have those Canadian labels on the tins, so Target should be able to do it.
And, gingerbread M&M’s you say!!! I never heard of these but am going to look for them when I go shopping!

Bio

I’m so excited to have found this community! I’m a self-employed Harpist (acoustic & electric – Originals, Classical, Rock, Jazz, etc) & Singer/Songwriter. My days & nights revolve around teaching at home, playing gigs, gardening,& fixing awesome food to eat. My schedule is different everyday, but I just go with the flow, & I sip a lot of tea!

My love of Tea began with Herbals back in the 70’s. One of my favorites was a licorice blend from House of Hezekiah, an old tea shop in Kansas City. There was also a tea with mint, rose petals, chamomile, etc called Nuclear Casual Tea.
In the 80’s I gave up caffeine, chocolate, alcohol, (& a few illicit substances…), and brewed medicinal blends & tinctures to support 4 pregnancies (all children born at home). In the 90’s my love affair with green teas began when I discovered ‘The Republic of Tea’. Their beautiful teas & packaging inspired my original song, “TeaMind”, from my CD “Zen Breakfast”. If you’d like to hear the song for free, drop by my website.

In general, I drink my teas straight, but occasionally I add a pinch of Stevia & maybe some coconut or almond milk (I’m allergic to dairy, gluten, & various other things & avoid most sweets.)

I’ve explored a variety of teas:
Whites tend to be a little bland…sorry
Oolongs – wonderfully sensual
Roobios – I’m not a fan in general
Puehr – a fairly new direction for me
I’m not a huge fan of flavored teas, but I do make exceptions, & I’ll try just about anything once.

And Black Tea, Oh how I love thee!!
I am on a quest for the most wonderful breakfast cup! I will find you, my Love!
