Great variety, great flavors, good quality.
The top of this review is specific to the Tiesta Tea Top 8 Favorites Sampler Set. The bottom is random samples from the other variety packs.-------Tiesta Tea Top 8 Favorites Sampler Set-------- Fruity Paradise - Hint of strawberry pineapple, almost like a non-sour strawberry lemonade, but the rose petals are prominent. My favorite of the fruity/floral flavors. The rose really brings the flavors together.- Blackberry Bellini - A great tart berry tea. The berry flavor isn't overpowered, like many berry teas that just taste like juice. You get the tart berry flavor with a perfect compliment of tea flavor. My favorite of the berry teas in this pack.- Nutty Almond Cream - Basically a liquid version of a Nature Valley crunchy granola bar. There isn't much steep potency so you need a lot to get a decent amount of extraction, but it's very good. One of my favorites of the set.- Blueberry Wild Child - Extremely strong flavor and high extraction potency. I put in the typical amount for a kettle and it swelled up and extracted a ton of flavor, too much in fact. I made a second steeping and it was still very strong. I cut it again with more water and it was a nice strength. Use this sparingly. If you're on a budget, this will last you the longest.- Lavender Chamomile - Classic paring. Nice, traditional flavor.- Passion Berry Jolt - Generic berry flavored tea. If I didn't know what it was called I wouldn't be able to distinguish it from other berry teas.- Fireberry - Cranberry tea. This was my least favorite of the berry blends. I did not like this one. The best I can describe it is that it tasted like wood and medicine.- Maui Mango - Tastes like honey water. Not sure I would considering it a tea.-------Other Flavors-------- Orange Tango - Straight up orange tea. No other flavors or complexity. If you like orange tea, this is a solid choice.- Pomegranatopia - Smells and tastes like a fruit roll-up at first. Flavor mutes as you drink- Peach Party - Great peach flavor. Subtle, but definite. Solid choice for peach lovers.- Lemon Ginger Turmeric - Very potent. It tastes like strep throat. Like if you have a really sore throat and you get this raspy burning feeling down your throat? This causes that. You start with a clear throat and it makes it feel that raspy burn. Use half or a third the normal amount for a pot. Tastes like the ingredients listed. I didn't like this one, definitely my least favorite tea I've ever had.- Meyer Lemon Zest - Smells like lemon starburst. The taste is kind of like a lemon drop candy. It has a sweetness, rather than sour. It's more lemongrass forward, not lemon. Orange peel and eucalyptus make an appearance on the back end. Quite good for a lemon tea.- Cherry punch - Nice cherry flavor. I normally don't like cherry flavored things because they tastes like cough medicine, but this is a very enjoyable cherry flavor.- Ginger Sweet Peach - Very ginger forward. Not much peach flavor, but I think the peach mellows the ginger out, so it doesn't have quite the bite. It does have a fruity undertone, just not distinctly peach. If you like a more muted ginger tea without being smacked in the mouth with it, this is for you.- Pineapple blues - Oddly not pineapple flavored. If I didn't know what it was called, I couldn't tell. Slight mango/peach aftertaste, which mango is one of the ingredients. Basically fairly generic with a hint of mystery fruit.- Pineapple Sangria - Slight pineapple on the front and sangria on the back, a little apple taste as well, and a weird spice that I can't place. It has rose hips and rose petals, but unfortunately they don't come through. It's good, but there are just too many competing ingredients that make it a hodgepodge of random flavor.- Chai Love - A fairly weak Chai. It has the chai flavor, but light on the cinnamon and the normal spicy punch. Good for people who want a more flavorful black tea, but don't want to go overboard on the kick.

Tasting the tea
Got this for my partner for her birthday. She is just getting into tea and is looking for all new fun flavors. This hit that for her and they are small enough for her to really sample and then be able to order more from there. Great quality and cost. Variety is outstanding. And they are delicious

Almost Perfect!
Good quality teas and ACTUALLY different flavors for the entire duration of advent. It was fun to try teas I wouldn't necessarily have tried otherwise. Personally, I wish there were a few more black/green tea varieties because it was a lot of herbal for me. I love combinations of fruity with green or black and the types of those this set included were simply amazing. It was fun that there were descriptions of each kind underneath, so when you take out the tea bag, you can read about it.Each bag had the perfect amount for a cup of tea (and I use big cups) and clear brewing instructions for each one. Good quality loose leaf tea. You can see the individual ingredients and know they are real.This is really more of a 4.5 star product because I do think it is almost perfect. The only change I would make is the order of the teas. I changed the order myself because there were only a couple of varieties that seemed "festive" and I wanted to save those for closer to Christmas but they were almost at the beginning according to the order prescribed. I switched some around to save those for later. Some people might not care about this, I just found it was fun to feel like the flavors become more "Christmasy" the closer you get.Great quality, fun variety! Simple and logical presentation. A wonderful advent treat!
