Tea L'Original MARIE-ANTOINETTE PINK TIN

It’s a great plll keeper and the room looks amazing!I love all things beautiful and dainty!

The tea is expensive but I feel the taste is absolutely worth it. The hint of rose is lovely but doesn’t overpower the apple flavor or create a medicinal taste. I’ve also found it to be great no matter how I prepare my cup, be it sweetened, unsweetened, hot, or cold which I usually can’t say for most blends.You get a much better deal purchasing this tin rather than the individual packs as this can certainly be stretched over more than 10 cups of tea. I’m a little over halfway done with my current tin and I’ve gone through at least 15 cups worth.You DO NOT NEED a lot of it to get a nice balanced cup. I’ve found using a little over 1/2 TSP for a standard sized mug, steeped for about 4-6 minutes is perfect. Use too much or steep too long and you are going to get a very bitter experience.I haven’t had an issue with the tin, but I also don’t display my tea so I don’t particularly care if it gets dented as long as it keeps the leaves from losing flavor which it does just fine. If you do plan on displaying the tin however, be aware that it does dent easily.

I’m a major tea drinker and order most of my tea from the UK. That being said, I was a little bit nervous about ordering this because it looks like novelty tea, like something I could imagine seeing in some bin at Ross for $2.99. I was afraid it would have really bad artificial flavoring. I am happy to report that it tastes very natural and makes a nice, strong cup of tea. I gave it five stars because I think it’s worth the price and I think it’s good tea. On a personal note, I would not re-order because I don’t like the flavor. The apples don’t work for me. The combination with rose, to me, tastes like bruised apples or apples that are getting old and are starting to rot a little. I have too many teas I like more to bother with this one.

I stumbled upon this tea while doing an online search. It has great reviews and I'm a sucker for chic vintage-looking European packaging, so I had to try it. I'm a bit of a tea nerd, so I was afraid that though the packaging was pretty I would be let down by the tea--that the packaging was lipstick on a pig, as they say.Sure, you'll find cheaper tea in the supermarket, but since this tea is loose and it's so flavorful, you'll seriously get your money's worth. I easily find myself being able to rebrew the leaves at least once again if not twice (total of 3 times). That might be sacrilegious, but it's a very intensely-flavored tea that I find myself using slightly more hot water than I would with other teas. And by intense, I don't mean "bad" -- it's very floral and fruity.If you have a friend who loves tea and travel or tea and history, this makes a great gift!

I love to do a fancy tea setting. It tastes way more like roses than it does Apple. It's still pretty nice but it's very perfumey. I'm going to try to do something to add some more Apple flavor maybe like a splash of apple juice or something. But it's interesting.

My ultimate favorite tea.

Mostly black tea with very little rose and apple. Not aromatic like other reviews say. Unless you are buying it for the tin, don't waste your money. Over priced.

Delicious premium tea! Great roses taste, and doesn’t taste perfumed to me at all! I just wish it was better packed. I wanted to keep the can because it’s really pretty, but the can arrived dented.
