Kashmiri Chai - Golden Moon


As many of you know I do NOT put anything in my tea...ever...including my chai (unless it's added by someone else ie a cafe/restaurant while purchasing). This is the first time I am trying this Chai and I must say I LOVE IT. It's lite and creamy with a little bit of spice. I have had Chai that are very spicy and over the top and know why people put cream or milk or soy equiv. in it but this doesn't need anything! It's a nice calming/relaxing blend that is very Creamy as is.

Product Description from Golden Moon

Kashmiri Chai is an exotic, spiced loose leaf tea from the Himalayas of Northern India. Aromatic and warming, natives of India often comment that the authentic and delicious recipe reminds them of home. Serve with cream and honey for a rich treat.

Orange Dulce - Mighty Leaf - Tasting Notes


Description from Might Leaf:
Orange Dulce black tea is a luscious, rich brew teeming with notes of orange, vanilla and jasmine blossoms. Made with Ceylon and China black teas, Orange Dulce brews up a fragrant and full bodied dark tea. Reminiscent of an aged Port, the flavor is sure to please.

(Over the past 3 weeks...)

My Tasting Notes:
1st Try - This is the first time I have tried this tea thanks to MandyB. This tea is a wonderful rarity because the name ORANGE Dulce makes me think pure Orange Black Tea but it's very different because it's floral and sweet, too...it's not overly orange nor is it a BOLD Black Tea Flavor. It seems to be a nice happy medium of everything! Very Nice!
2nd Try- Yes, I think I like this tea a bit more than I thought I would because I was thinking ORANGE but with the other flavors it blends well and isn't as citrus-based as I thought it would be. Thumbs up!

Candy Cane Lane


I'm not embarrassed to say it...THIS is my FAVE tea from CS! I don't care if it's bagged, I don't care if it's cheap...I LOVE IT! The only bummer...it's seasonal and not available year 'round.

Tippy Earl Grey

I received this as a free sample from Golden Moon last week. It has a wonderful aroma as you open the envelop. Different than other Earl Grey I have had from other companies. I really believe it's the Lavender addition. It's a nice touch and calms down the bergamot. The coloring of the steeped tea is lighter in color than other Earl Greys I have tried. I like the fact that it's a little different than other brands since Earl Grey has been done by just about everyone and their brother...so for that...I will give it a thumbs up. I will be drinking again...

Orange Chocolate - Dark


Orange Chocolate - Dark

This is one of my signature blends at Adagio. I created it because I LOVE Orange Chocolate. I'm originally from Buffalo, NY, and until I moved - I didn't realize most people have never heard of or tried Orange Chocolate before. Anyhow...Since this blend is made up of 3 black flavored teas I knew it wouldn't be a true Orange Chocolate so I added "dark" to the name. It's smells a lot like Orange Chocolate but I was correct in my assumption...it tastes more like a DARK Chocolate with a small hints of Orange. The cream is barely there - if at all - but that is by design. The after-steep scent you lose a little of the orange scent, too. I have noticed it's a very bold blend and I am certainly going to enjoy it more in the morning! Or when I need a pick-me-up! And I am glad that I ended up putting "Dark" because the more and more I sip it as I review it - it certainly reminiscent of DARK Chocolate...with a hint of orange. I'm liking it.
