I'm going back to the store before they sell out.Note: I normally drink my tea with milk & a spot of sugar. I taste a mild ginger flavor but not a strong pear flavor at all (certainly not like the Bigelow Organic Rooibos with Asian Pear Tea, 1.28-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 6)Bigelow Tea Organic Rooibos Pear K-Cup For Keurig Brewers, 25-Count, Boxes (Pack of 2) which was not my favorite blend).Try the Tazo Green Ginger.
On the shelf, and recommended by a fellow shopper, was Tazo's Green Ginger tea (pkg of 24 individual bags).Tazo describes its Green Ginger tea as "a dazzling blend with sweet, spicy ginger & a touch of pear essence", and further describes it as "its yin is smooth green tea, its yang is spicy ginger root. And to make it more interesting, there's a touch of pear essence we add for a fragrant finish.
Our local supermarket is phasing out their Tazo tea selection, so I'm working my way through what they have left. It is not harsh like a green tea can be nor is it too "fruity" or too "gingery".
We call that part "yow"."Whatever Tazo is doing with this blend, they are doing it right. It is a really nice tea that is smooth, tasty & satisfying.
I hope you like it as much as I do (& as much as the stranger who recommended it to me). I tried this blend "my way" & plain - both ways are excellent.
okay -- first, the tea is terrific. since we ALL have different taste buds {flash back to 8th grade science class with the litmus paper test, where half the class tasted bitterness and the rest tasted nothing :o) }, so people will have different reactions, obviously. this is one of the best tasting teas--period; the ginger/pear hints are phenomenal and even the smell is incredible before the tasting experience. having said that, you need to know if you are doing price shopping, amazon is WRONG w/the tea bag count.there are ONLY 20 bags, NOT 24; hence, it would have been cheaper @ other websites, so very disappointed.
I'm not normally a green tea or a ginger tea drinker but when I had some stomach problems, my acpuncturist suggested ginger tea. Rather than steeping fresh ginger I tried all the ginger teas on the market, far and away this is the best. I always have at least one cup a day.
Not overpowering. We love this tea cold and warm. Good balance. Excellent for year round use. Nice ginger taste. Add a slice of orange for a nice citrus twist to it. Highly recommended.
This tea is really out of the ordinary, and I think people either love it or hate it. I LOVE it. It has a wonderful flavor and is one of my favorites. Give it a try; you might be pleasantly surprised.
