Serengeti Tea Company 100 Tea Sticks Mango Black Tea Flavor

Love Tea Sticks. I was introduced to Tea Stick while visiting Holland and became enamored with the technology. The tea steeped in these foil-like sticks with dozens of perforations. Each Tea Stick is also individually sealed in cellophane to preserve freshness of the tea. Do not steep the Jasmine Tea for than about 1 min or it may become bitter tasting. Green tea in general is steeped 45 seconds to one minute but not more to avoid tasting bitter. In China, for example one portion of tea may be infused multiple times so as not to waste loose, high quality green tea.Tea Quality: pretty good quality tea was used in these tea sticks. Now we are not talking Superior Grade or Monkey Pick green tea but a good quality tea nonetheless. The addition of Jasmine Flowers always as not only flavor but a wonderful aroma to the tea. When I over steep the tea the color was still green and not as dark as say an Oolong tea.I like Tea Sticks as much as the tea bags that are made from silk. Just improves the taste. But the sticks are much more tidy. Hey, and they are just plain cool!Shipping was almost as much as the tea so I will not purchase again until either shipping costs are lowered or the get them on Amazon Prime. If the latter occurs I will be a regular buyer of Serengeti Teas.

Can't believe I'm only the second person to review these! I've actually been served these at a restaurant in hollywood and a cafe in beverly hills...i finally remembered to track them down and order them. They are every bit as good as I remember them. I've actually found a grocery store I buy them from now and have tried about half the blends they offer. These definitely have that wow factor the first time you see them, everyone i've shown them to goes nuts. Make sure you do NOT try to tear the stick open, there are holes in the stick that the water goes through to brew the leaves. It's extremely convenient and kind of addicting stirring the stick around and brewing the tea that way. I take it straight so no sugar or anything else. I've liked all the one's i've tried and a few were super delicious. (peach green tea, chamomile and passion black tea are my favorite ones so far) I could see how a hard core tea drinker who would want that really bold astringent taste might be a littler underwhelmed. At least the blends I've tried don't fit that category, but they have a really nice taste and are the smoothest teas I've ever drank. Definitely recommend them and suggest you give them a try if you're a tea drinker, I'm seriously hooked :)

I love the stick idea. The flavor of this tea is my favorite tea. The box of tea is very pricey, costing more than a box of 100 tea bags.

I didn’t find the gimmick all too great for the price, but my mom loves it and believes it to be good medicinal tee for the flue. The tea tastes good and rewarding, and the sticks can be used a couple more times before running out of juice. Each stick is individually sealed in plastic, so you can give them out as gifts or take a couple on trips. The stick itself doubles as a stirring spoon.Ever since they stopped selling them here in Estonia, I have been hardpressed to find it for my mom. Thank you, but the shipping costs double the price, making it 1.30$ a stick. The tee is good, but you might be better of buying it somewhere with lower export shipping costs.

I have had this product previously, and found the taste of the Jasmine Green Tea to be excellent. It is easy to use and extremely easy to bring along when you travel!! One of the best tasting green teas I have found,

Best cardamom tea ever. I love the pure taste. They aren't good for a second brew really. Give it a very good squeeze a couple of times if you want to brew a bigger cup of tea, like I do (about 10-14 oz). Delightful flavor, non bitter, delicate but accurate smell. A bit hard to open so I can compost the tea...but brilliant idea, travels great. Wish they were not packaged in plastic individually for the waste factor - only thing I can find to complain about!

I absolutely love ordering these bi-weekly! I hesitate writing reviews bc I don't wish for these to be out when I need them! I love ordering from here! I wish there was a way to auto-refill. I now buy these not only for myself but if I am extra generous, it goes with a gift! Perfect for those "relax my friend" gifts!Such a smooth light flavor with hints of florals that are in no way overpowering!Love love love! Thank you for shipping them out so quickly, bc when I am out, I need them!

I just re-read the reviews and left with the impression that much of their flavor is Astroturf. While the silver sticks are indeed clever, the tea actually smells weird (as in 'not pleasant') and there's only the faintest taste of cardamom. I'm yet to rip open one of the silver sticks to check how much cardamom (in seeds or pod pieces) is actually inside, but highly doubt it will amount to much. Overall this product leaves much to be desired, especially when compared with a different premium brand of cardamom tea I just purchased alongside this one. Will not buy this one again.

Very good tea.

Very enjoyable

Product as described and very quick delivery

Good to use in the office, easy to carry. Nice flavour, but leaves a bit of goop in the cup at times.

Great for purse
