Tea Type: Black Tea
Where To Buy: Simpson & Vail
Product Description:
A new addition to our flavored tea line and already a huge hit with all of us here! This slightly sweet, scrumptious blend has a lightly toasted flavor with the delicious taste of apples and cinnamon. Sipping this tea reminds me of the Sunday morning breakfast treats of my childhood. Now that I’m all grown up I could have those treats every day of the week; however, I think I’ll stick to this tea blend instead. It’s full of the sinful tastes of childhood but, with no calories, it suits my adult metabolism!
Ingredients: Black teas, organic cinnamon chips, apple pieces, orange blossoms and flavoring.
Brew tea at 212º – steep for 3 minutes.
Tasters Review:
I prefer this flavored tea to the real thing. I’m not much of a pastry person. This smells just like the name states. The flavor is RIGHT ON, too! It’s a gently roasted black tea with juicy apple notes, hints of citrus, a nice even cinnamon flavor, and that stereotypical coffeecake taste that you would expect! It has a smoother aftertaste, too, which was a nice surprise!
S&V continue to amazing me with their flavored black teas! Check them out!
Strawberry Ginger from Fusion Tea Room
Tea Type: Fruit/Herbal Tisane
Where To Buy: Fusion Tea Room
Product Description:
Green leaves, dark-red blossoms and bright fruits shine intensively. Truly a feast for the eyes. Thanks to some select, dried fruits and plants, this herb tea blend has a sweet taste and is very aromatic. In the background hibiscus and ginger softly unfold their typical characteristics. Fruity sweet and spicy fresh flavors ennoble this blend.
Ingredients: Apple pieces, rose hip peel, hibiscus, wild strawberry leaves, lemon myrtle, sweet blackberry leaves, flavoring, ginger pieces, strawberry slices.
Tasters Review:
This is VERY tasty and refreshing! It’s mostly strawberry with a small amount of ginger underneath. It’s not an artificial strawberry and I am very happy about that. It’s almost like water with fresh strawberries in it! If you can ‘picture that’. The other ingredients such as the apple, hibiscus, blackberry leaves, etc are all very mild but blend together nicely for the overall flavor. I enjoy this both hot and cold! A tasty cup any time of year!

One of the first things I tried from Talbott Teas was their Sachets. I received one of their Premium Gourmet Tea Sachets Sets – more specifically their Orange Creme Dreams Sachet Set. We should have an Orange Creme Dreams tea review coming up within the next few weeks so stay tuned for that! In the meantime, I would love to show you this set!
What’s neat about this set from Talbott Teas is that you can choose from their top sellers and they only cost $12! That AND they are eco-friendly! That’s always a PLUS!

Tasters Review:
The guys over at Talbott Teas are still “on Cloud Nine” from being on Oprah’s Favorite Things Yesterday and here at SororiTEA Sisters we thought we would continue to celebrate with more Talbott Tea Reviews this week!
Today I would like to talk about Blissful Blueberry from Talbott Teas. There are many reasons I would like to chat about this one, actually. One being the name connection…BLISSful. BLISS is not only part of my screen name but also part of my real name and I use that play on words quite a bit. I have a Craft Blog called Blissful Place and it’s located HERE.
I was intrigued by this tisane because of the blueberries, too!
I remember the first time I sampled this tisane from Talbott Teas…I’ll admit…I was afraid! The post infusion color is what ‘got me’. The color was so vibrant I KNEW their was Hibiscus in it and if any of you know me you know my troubled relationship with hibiscus! I was thinking it was going to be Hibiscus and NOTHING else! BUT I was thankfully wrong! This is a wonderful mixture of fruit, folks! Mostly Blueberry BUT the strawberry and apple flavors are noticeable to the tongue as well! It’s quite tart and fruity but mostly from the actual fruit and not as much from the hibiscus. I can tell there is hibiscus in there but not nearly as much as I assumed!
For those who aren’t crazy about Hibiscus – try what I did…under infuse! It does make a difference! AND…I have found this one I enjoy COLD or ICED more than the Hot Cup Equivalent! I really do think it’s the Blueberries! They make this work ICED! It’s VERY Nice!
Just another offering from our friends at Talbott Teas who are still celebrating their products being featured on Oprah’s Favorite Things yesterday! Continued success to you!
