Mulled Plum Cider
I loved the smell of this tea when I opened it up, but it such a strange unpleasant flavor when I brewed it, even though I thought I would love the blend from the ingredients. Would not recommend.
-
APPLE CINNAMON
I loved this really strong apple and cinnamon flavors, both brewed cold and hot--it was so nice to find an apple tea that wasn't overpowered by hibiscus flavors!
-
Autumn Mist Green
This tea is absolutely DELICIOUS. It is so sweet and creamy, with the refreshing green tea layered underneath. Would recommend!
-
Gyokuro
This tea was definitely not my thing--it was somehow both sweeter and more bitter than I wanted.
-
Christmas
I love the idea of this tea, but I found the flavors a bit underwhelming. I would love to have more of the spices!
-
Hojicha
The toasted flavor of this tea comes through really strongly, which I didn't love personally, but if you like roasted teas you'll enjoy this!
-
Jolly Roger
This tea is great! The flavors are layered nicely. Sweet and warm tasting, even when cold-brewed.
-
Vanilla Oolong
This tea is exactly as it sounds--a nice quality oolong layered with strong vanilla flavors. A good hot cup!
-
Ali Shan
I agree with previous reviewers--this tea is definitely not bitter, but it was a bit earthy for my taste.
-
Formosa Ali Shan
This tea is definitely high quality and complex, but I found it slightly too earthy for my taste.
-
Genmai Cha
This tea really does taste like the toasted rice it contains! It's really unique. It's nutty, smooth, and filling--would recommend!
-
Teaster Marshmallow
This was so delicious! It was light, smooth, and flavorful, perfect for both spring and all year round.
-
White Peach
I tried this tea hot and I found it pretty artificial-scented and -flavored, honestly--I was really disappointed by that.
-
Fujian Rain
This made a strong, solid cup of oolong tea! Would definitely recommend if you're trying for an unflavored oolong!
-
Candy Cane
Honestly I found the black tea a little bitter and the candy cane flavor not either sweet and strongly minty--not the tea for me.
-
Gunpowder
This is a lovely, balanced, smooth green tea! I've disliked gunpowder green tea in the past and this changed my mind--definitely buying more!
-
Golden Flower
This oolong was light and delicate when brewed--a great tasting and smelling tea!
-
Sleeping Dragon
I found this tea was too grassy for me, but if you like vegetal green teas you would like this!
-
Ginseng Green
Solid green tea with an energy and flavor kick! Might be a good entry tea into flavored green teas for those unfamiliar with them since it's subtle.
-
Pumpkin Spice
I found this tea quite bitter, honestly--neither a sweet and creamy pumpkin flavor or a spicy nutmeg-type flavor came through for me.
-
Alpine Trails
I found the spearmint flavor overpowering compared to the other flavors, but I also generally don't love super minty teas so that might be a personal preference.
-
Chocolate Chai
Both the chocolate and chai spices come through when cold-brewed--would recommend!!
-
Honeybush Banana Nut
This is a great banana nut tea! It is a comforting, warm flavor, although I would love if it was just a touch stronger or maybe had a bit of caramel flavor to fill it out and then it would be PERFECT
-
Earl Grey Bella Luna
This is a solid earl grey, although I found the coconut flavor (while it made the cup sweeter and smoother) a bit strong for my taste--will probably regift this!
-
Earl Grey Bravo
This tea wasn't for me--I found it somewhat bitter compared to other earl greys I have had, including from Adagio.
-
Kona Pineapple
Maybe I just got a weird batch, but this tasted like a lemon/lemongrass tea to me--not pineapple-flavored at all
-
Butterscotch
I loved the smell--it's exactly like the pastry!--but I didn't actually much enjoy drinking this tea. It was very sweet smelling, but I didn't find it tasted much like the cookie.
-
Blood Orange
If you really like citrus teas then you might enjoy this, but I found myself wishing the flavor was more complex or sweeter--both cold and hot.
-
Jasmine Yin Hao
I found this jasmine tea was a bit heavier than the lighter versions I normally like, but a high quality tea regardless.
-
Vanilla Bean Macaron
Smells exactly like a vanilla macaron, but I felt this tasted really artificial and overly sweet.
-
Chai Vanilla Caramel Latte
I was surprised how much I like this! Both vanilla-sweet and spiced, although not spicy the way I normally like chai. The caramel comes through, too!
-
CHAMOMILE LEMON
I love the idea of chamomile and lemon, but both flavors are somewhat weak in this tea.
-
GUNPOWDER GREEN
I'm not a fan of gunpowder green tea generally so take this with a grain of salt, but I found this tea bitter and unpleasant.
-
JASMINE GREEN
I found this tea light, but not as sweet as it could be--it tasted somewhat bitter/astringent to me.

Very strong mint tea--if you're looking for a flavorful, bold mint cup, this is the one for you.
-
TOWER OF LONDON
One of my favorite teas ever! A lovely twist on earl grey teas, sweet and smooth.
-
HOLIDAY TEA
This tea is more fruity and almond-flavored than it is spiced, like a fruitcake!
-
ENGLISH BREAKFAST
This is a quality english breakfast tea, but as with many of H&S's unflavored black teas it becomes bitter very easily.
-
ORGANIC GREEN WITH CITRUS & GINKGO
This tea was good! It was a bit too citrusy for me personally, but if you like green citrus teas you will love this.

Florence
This is a really high quality tea, sweet and balanced. I found the hazelnut was not quite my thing but I would 100% recommend this to someone who likes those flavors!
-
DARJEELING
I'm not a huge fan of darjeeling, and this tea exemplifies why--I found it somewhat bitter and astringent.
-
VANILLA COMORO
I personally found the vanilla in this tea both smelled and tasted quite artificial.

EARL GREY SUPREME
I found this tea was a good quality earl grey with bold bergamot flavor, but it was easily oversteeped and became bitter.
-
DECAF CEYLON
A wonderful decaf black tea! It retains all the bold but smooth flavor of regular Ceylon.
-
VALENTINE'S BLEND
This is a good chocolate and rose tea! It is smooth and sweet without being overpowering. Neither ingredient tastes artificial as with some other chocolate or rose teas.
-
Victorian London Fog

A pretty good vanilla tea! The vanilla smells just a touch artificial to me which is a bit off-putting, but it tastes wonderful.

PARIS
This tea is wonderfully sweet and a touch fruity with a soft bergamot, tasting as described--would recommend!
-

This tea is lovely! The bergamot is clear without being overwhelming or bitter.

I found this tea's smell alone to be very off-putting, like it was old or overly bitter.

I tried this tea and found it was not for me--I found it somewhat bitter when brewed hot.
-
ANNIVERSARY BLEND
Really good cold-brewed! Complex combination of flavors, bold but not astringent black tea.
-
TEMI SIKKIM
Not my favorite tea when hot, but very good cold-brewed! Cold-bringing really brings out honey flavors of this bold black tea.
-
ORGANIC BREAKFAST TEA
This bold breakfast tea smells wonderful but becomes bitter very quickly when steeping, which I found difficult.
-
CHOCOLATE TEA
I just did not enjoy this chocolate tea--I didn't feel the chocolate was either bold or sweet, which are the two kinds of chocolate teas I like.
-
CELEBRATION TEA - 20 SACHET TIN
I think this is a solid tea, although I did not enjoy this tea's strong fruit and nut flavors personally as those aren't usually my kinds of flavors.
-
WINTER WHITE EARL GREY
I normally don't like white teas, but with combined with the bergamot this is a refreshing, interesting change to my normal earl grey addiction haha
-
ROYAL WEDDING TEA
This is a solid tea! I normally find white/green teas with almond or floral flavors are touch and go for me, but this is refreshing with just a touch of sweet!
-
Citron Green
Really good green tea! I found the citrus interesting without being too overpowering, like some teas. Less of a fruity tea and more of a gently flavored green tea.
-
Moonlight Jasmine
Wonderful jasmine tea, my absolute favorite. Would recommend to both those who love jasmine and those just trying it for the first time!
-
Ruby Oolong
Very tasty, quality oolong! Not too earthy like some oolongs are for me. I didn't find it at all bitter like the other reviewers warned, so maybe just be careful with the steeping time.
-
MASALA CHAI TEA CONCENTRATE
This is my favorite chai concentrate! Wonderfully spicy and flavorful, I use it to make all my chai lattes!
-
Organic Elderflower SuperHerb Tea
This tea does a good job balancing the spicy elderflower with other sweeter flavors.

Great milk thistle tea! It's a beneficial herb and this is a tasty way to consume it!

A good straightforward green and lemon tea! Good with and without sweetener.

LEMON & ORANGE TEA BAGS
While I don't always love strong citrus flavors, this is a good citrusy black tea!

AFTERNOON DARJEELING Leaf Tea
Darjeeling is not normally my "cup of tea," but if I am drinking Darjeeling I drink this one from ToH. Good quality inexpensive tea!
-
Cancer
While this tea consists of ingredients I don't normally enjoy, I actually found it tasty and light and refreshing!
-
White Pear
I couldn't get past the very strong, unpleasant smell of the batch I got, I'm afraid.

Irish Breakfast
You'll enjoy this if you enjoy stout/malty teas! I found it was not for me, personally.
-
Brigadoon Breakfast
A good malty tea! This makes a high quality, strong, black cup of tea.
-
Formosa Oolong
I found this oolong almost bitter to my taste, but I can tell that it's a solid oolong and just not light enough for my taste--I regifted it.
-
Almond Oolong
I discovered through this tea that I don't like almond-flavored tea, so if you don't love the flavor this might not be the tea for you, but I gifted this to a friend who does enjoy it.
-
Earl Grey Moonlight
This is a wonderfully sweet earl grey tea! I would recommend this both to newer earl grey drinkers and to those who already love earl greys!

Earl Grey Green
This really does layer earl grey flavors with the lightness of green tea!
-
Scottish Breakfast
Good strong breakfast tea. If you enjoy scottish breakfast teas generally, you'll definitely enjoy this one!
-
Chai Classic Latte
I prefer a stronger, spicier chai latte personally, but I used this sweeter, less strong concentrate until I found a spicier one.
-
Juniper Mint Honey
Very refreshing tea! None of the flavors overwhelm the others and instead make a somewhat sweet, somewhat minty, somewhat berry-tasting tea.

Chai Pumpkin Spice Latte
Very good pumpkin spice latte! Would definitely recommend using this to make lattes at home!
-
Refresh Mint
Not normally a fan of mint teas with peppermint, but this tea is really refreshing!

DARJEELING BLACK TEA

-
EARL GREY BLACK TEA
Very good earl grey tea! This tea is pleasantly light--the bergamot is very present but not overwhelming.
-
ENGLISH BREAKFAST
Good solid black tea! Carries the bold flavor I normally associate with English Breakfast, especially in the loose leaf version.
-
Sugar Cookie Sleigh Ride
I really disliked this tea--I found the smell and flavor to be incredibly artificial in a very unpleasant way, I'm afraid.
-
Country Peach Passion
This is a great peach-flavored tea! I love a cup of this in the summertime.
-
Sleepytime Vanilla
I found the vanilla smell and flavor to be quite artificial, which I did not enjoy, especially layered over the herb/chamomile flavors of normal Sleepytime.
-
Lemon Lavender Lane
This tea was both strongly lavender and lemon flavored--I found that these were not strong flavors I like to consistently drink, but if you like those flavors you will love this tea!
-
Sleepytime Classic
I found the chamomile/herb-like aspects of this tea were too overpowering for me to enjoy drinking it, but the smell is indeed relaxing haha--if you like those flavors you should like this!
-
Raspberry Zinger
Not a sweet raspberry tea, but a very tart one (which is not to my liking)--if that is what you are looking for then you might enjoy this!
