Tiesta Tea - Passion Berry Jolt | Loose Leaf | Raspberry Passion Fruit Black Tea | Premium Caffeinated Blend | Make Hot or Iced & Brews Up to 50 Cups | 4oz Refillable Tin

I like the Stash black spice chai but I wanted loose leaf since reading an article about microplastics, so I gave this a try and it's superb. Will definitely be buying more when this one runs out.

Very tasty and a decent price. I added freshly ground black pepper. And always simmer with slides of fresh ginger.

Tastes great!

Update:I miss judged this tea. The flavor is actually really nice brewed according to package directions. For my taste, you need more than double the recommended amount of the tea-to-water ratio. Instead of a teaspoon, I used a tablespoon/coffee scoop per 8oz. I also steeped the tea for 5-6 minutes. I actually really like it and am ordering more.It’s well packaged but the plastic isn’t my favorite. The tea is decent, smells nice and appears to be fresh. My only complaint is that I think the recommended brewing instructions don’t seem to bring out the full flavor. Having purchased a different brand before, I think if it’s brewed in the more traditional manner, the flavor/strength will be where it should be.Since I haven’t tried this yet, I don’t know if I’d recommend this tea.I think if you’re a (loose leaf) Chai drinker, you’re going to find the taste a bit weak. I really think it’s due to the package brewing instructions.Will update when I try to brew it in the traditional way by boiling it in a pot instead of just pouring the hot water over a tea strainer.

Tasty chai tea. I needed bagged because I was gifted a teapot and strainer for Christmas. Chai is my favorite.

This has always been one of my favorites. The flavor profile is very similar to the STASH brand double spice chai bag tea.It is a bit pricey. But if it’s in your budget. Try it!There is another brand chai that I also enjoy (the flavor profile has more character), and it’s half the price. I’m not sure if I can say the brand on this review. It’s in a blue and white bag.

I prefer loose leaf tea. They test better compared to tea bags, but the main issue is that they tend to be expensive. I drink a lot of tea since my husband and I don't drink coffee, about 1,700 ml a day between us when we have loose leaf tea available. Once it runs out, we try to find good sources at our local Homegoods/Marshalls. But this requires a trip to the mall and is just overall inconvenient for just tea. I was searching for a loose tea brand on Amazon that I can just order again and again. I found that very thing in Tiesta Tea. I ordered their Passion Berry Jolt tea. Although not the best in flavor compared to other teas I've had (Mighty Tea is probably the best I've found, but they're pretty expensive), I think it still tastes delicious, 4.7/5 stars in taste. They offer great sizing options and have quite the variety! A 4oz tin for $10, and 16oz for $25! Wow, I think I've finally settled down on a brand that I can buy continuously without braking bank and has good flavor. There other flavors may be $13 for a 4oz tin, but I think that's still relatively cheap.In regard to the Passion Berry Jolt specifically, it does it's job. It gives a good amount of caffeine without the jitters, keeps me awake while working from home. Doesn't taste bitter, has good depth from the black tea, but has high notes with from the fruit and flower bits. It's a wonderful blend, would definitely recommend. The tin itself is sturdy, love that you can view how much tea you have left by the clear side panel, very cool. Opening it is a cinch. Will definitely stick with this brand for a while and try their other blends!

About 8 or 9 years ago I wandered into a Tevana store in my local mall. They had so many samples! But this one was my favorite! I bought a little brewmaster and jumped into the world of loose leaf tea! I don't know why I ever stopped.Fast forward to this many years later, here I am once more jumping into the world of loose leaf tea! And am so happy to have found Tiesta, and I can still get my Raspberry Passion Fruit Jolt tea. I like to add a little honey, as a friend of mine is a local beekeeper, but this tea has a little sweetness on its own so it doesn't necessarily need it. It's also delicious and refreshing over ice in the summertime!
