For Tea’s Sake Review

November 20, 2016
for teas sake review

You know how I can’t say no to tea right?

That’s what happened when For Tea’s Sake contacted me to review some of their teas – I couldn’t say no!

And then shortly after a review came along with four of their delicious teas: Home Sweet Home, Sour Apple Martini, Let’s Get Cozy, and Cold Be Gone.

I’m also excited to announce that these teas will also be featured as a giveaway! Stay tuned to find out when by checking in with my blog and my Instagram @wisdomandtea

High Noon Tea Co. Review

October 23, 2016
high noon tea co review

I was so happy when High Noon Tea Co. contacted me to review a sample of their teas.

I like their mission and what they stand for.

Imagine my surprise when I found out I received not one or two samples of teas …

… But a BOX!

I was so excited I even made a High Noon Tea Co. unboxing video! I think my tea nerdiness may have reached an all time high.

When I opened the box I found four samples of teas to try. Below I’ll share my thoughts on Organic Cederberg Rooibos & Peach, Chocolate Toffee Mocha Pu’erh, WuYi Forest Orchid White, and Louis XIV. Continue Reading

DAVIDsTEA 24 Days of Tea – 2015 Advent Calendar – Part 4

December 19, 2015
24 days of tea davids tea

We are now on the last stretch of reviewing and blogging the 2015 DAVIDsTEA 24 Days of Tea advent calendar!

I’m really glad I was able to purchase the advent calendar this year as I’ve been able to sample so many new flavours! It’s a great way to try a sample of many flavours at once, instead of having to purchase the teas individually.

As mentioned earlier I’ve also been blogging about the tea reviews every single day. I haven’t reviewed the teas ahead of time or sampled a bunch at once, rather I review each one individually every single day.

Without further ado, let’s carry on!

Instead I will be doing 4 posts with 6 tea reviews each.

You can read Part 1 of the 24 Days of Tea by DAVIDsTEA here, or skip ahead to part 3 or part 4 here.

DAVIDsTEA 24 Days of Tea – 2015 Advent Calendar – Part 1

December 1, 2015
day 1 of 24 days of tea

I’m really excited to write this post because for the first time ever I get to combine two exciting things together…

tea (duh) ….

and advent calendars!

Last year I noticed there was a lot of buzz around the DAVIDsTEA advent calendars. I wasn’t able to purchase one last year, but this year I was fortunate enough to get my paws on one.

I was so excited about the advent tea calendar that I even made a quickie Youtube video … because it deserves a video all on its own!

I’m also excited to try the teas in this advent calendar because I would like to expand my DAVIDsTEA tea collection. Purchasing the calendar provides 24 different sample sized loose leaf tea. It’s a great way to discover new flavours without having to purchase individual sample sizes or bags of loose leaf tea.

Plus the excitement of an advent calendar format makes the process that more fun. If there are flavours I discover and I really like and want more of, I will be more than happy to purchase them in larger quantities.

For anyone who has not purchased the advent calendar but are curious as to what flavours are included and are looking for tea reviews, I will be adding to this post every day. Each day I will open a new sample of the 24 Days of Tea. I will talk about the flavours, aroma, ingredients, and general makeup of the tea. Keep checking this post as it will be updated daily.
