Octavia Harvest Orange Spice Tea - Orange Spice That's Nice

Octavia Harvest Orange TeaMike: Octavia Harvest Orange Spice is one of the best orange spice teas that we've reviewed and in my opinion belongs on our best tea page like whoa. Last name Steepability, first name Max, Octavia Harvest Orange Spice tea is the whole leaf blend for the seasoned orange spice tea drinker and the casual dabbler alike. Never doubt it. Flavoroids come out fresh and proper not unlike our new column, Steeping Fresh and Proper with Jamar Eaton. The right collaboritive spirit between the orange, the spice, and even the black Octavia tea make this a contender to be hhhhwreckoned with.

Rating: A+

Dax: Octavia Tea keeps it fresh. Their loose tea can be found on our best tea page, and if I were you I would grab that. Octavia Harvest Orange Spice is another classic from the tea brand, giving me the orange spice that I don't necessarily agree with from time to time, compounded with a black tea base which holds it down like an anchor. Their choice of clementines for this orange spice tea is applauded, as well as the touch of cinnamon that closes out the organic tea sensation. If I could find a flaw, it is that the leaves are very dusty and will infiltrate your steeparatus. Daily drinker on the real.

Octavia Winter Mint Red Tea - Close To The Top Shelf

Octavia Winter Red TeaDax: Octavia Winter Red Tea was a nice little addition to the Octavia Tea line, featuring spectacular roobios tea flavor in a loose leaf smash up.  If you aren't familiar, roobios usually goes by the name red tea, and is often interchanged.  Don't get this Octavia red tea twisted, as it has a mint tea element that lights up this brew like a skate spot on any given night in Cali.  The quality of this holiday special was extra fire, but it didn't hit me with too many different flavors.  Double Koi rooibos had a unique, cognac taste.  This guy was kind of regular.  Tasty, but the rooibos was not as special as I would have liked.

Rating: B+

Mike: When you are dealing with Octavia Winter Mint Red Tea, remember to never look it in the eyes. Treat it like you would the emperor. Never turn your back toward it. Always address this Octavia Rooibos tea as "your steepness." makes sure your head is always below that of the Octavia Winter Mint Red Tea. This may require a really tall shelf to store it.  I believe this is either the best rooibos tea I have drank or tied for the best. There are a lot of quality contenders in the African rooibos field but this one from Octavia is likely the emperor. Delicious rich rooibos flavor and a drop of mint make this one cream of the crop. I recommed copping.

Octavia Ginger Peach White Tea - The Return of the Mack

Octavia Ginger Peach TeaDax: Octavia ginger peach white tea was such a blessing. Octavia tea is clearly a winner in the loose tea genre, and they've proven their prowess with ginger tea as well. Ginger tea sometimes tastes ways too Traditionals Medicinals for me, like my grandma made it to cure cancer or something. This ginger white tea had the perfect blend of ginger and peach. The best part was this sweet aftertaste that is lke the gatorade at the end of a 400K marathon. Definitely a best tea nominee fo shizzle.

Rating: A+

Mike: Octavia Ginger Peach White Tea has the flavor pop necessary to proudly strut with or without music in the background, and I'm not talking about Dax's tea beats here. I'm talking about some 70's groove track, like Goldie from The Mack. When this Octavia tea opens the door to his chambers the other teas look down. A sweet white tea slaps your taste buds across the face if they talk out of turn and a nice ginger spiciness then comforts them. Cry on the ginger's shoulder. It'll be you father, lover, advisor, protector, and boss. This ginger tea has them tastebuds on lockdown.

Octavia Tuscan Breakfast Tea - You Better Ask Somebody

Octavia Tea ReviewDax: Ahhh Octavia. With ultimate steepability, they let us have it with their Tuscan Breakfast tea. This isn't your average breakfast tea either, c'mon we wouldn't put you guys onto anything less than extrodinary. Octavia Tuscan Breakfast puts you in a beautiful place with a black tea that features the perfect amount of lemon twang. True teasans know a quality tea, and Octavia Tea exhibits overqualified characteristics. The black tea is crisp till the last sip and their added citrus element was accepted well by my palate. This is it right here, people, and don't even hesitate.  If you want to buy Tuscan Breakfast tea, you already know where the best is.

Rating: A

Mike: Octavia Tuscan Breakfast tea is insta-A+ action coming straight at you. Usually I make you read the entire tea review before you see the rating at the end but I couldn't hold out. A rich taste is an understatement as a sensuous leafiness envelopes your tongue. A blast of lemon-orange citrus comes crashing in right on top like a pleasantly sour wave of freshness. Don't worry, the tang isn't over-the-top. Even Dax loved this brew and he's generally opposed to the citrus-prone beverages. It gets better. A light smokiness is available here for those searching as is typical of various breakfast teas. We've all seen English breakfast tea, Scottish breakfast tea, and Irish breakfast tea, but Tuscan breakfast is unknown. Tap this one while it's still on the DL. Buy this organic tea from Octavia Teas if you know what's good for you.
