Celestial Seasonings Herbal Country Passion Reviews Summary

Flavor

Pros:

• "It tastes like an amazing chai tea latte when I use two teabags and little Stevia and a dash of cream."
• "This tea has pronounced blueberry flavour and a deep, blue/purple colour."
• "It tastes like the cinnamon candy 'Hot Tamales.' I really like it."
• "It has a very pleasant orange-cinnamon-clove taste that is more robust that the average herbal tea."
• "This tea us so good. It is naturally caffeine free and full of antioxidants."
• "An intense flavor of peaches I love it!"
• "Somehow they get real blueberry scent and flavor without a lot of blueberries."

Cons:

• "Because of the stark difference in taste and mild ammonia smell, I’m unlikely to drink the tea."
• "The brewed tea is bland. The cinnamon is less sharp and the cardamom flavor is missing."
• "It tastes extremely mild in terms of flavor, somewhat like watered mushy cinnamon and nothing like an apple pie."
• "This batch has so much cinnamon that’s all I can taste."
• "I can barely taste the peach tea flavor itself."
• "I was really disappointed with the flavor."
• "Taste like crapNo hint of cherry like the ones you buy in storeMust be a no name brand put in the celestial box."

Value

Pros:

• "For 15$ six boxes is such a good deal!"
• "A great value too."
• "This 6-pack is a great value, less than half the supermarket price."
• "Cost is less than fifteen cents per bag from Amazon as of 1/1/2022."
• "At .18 per bag, this is significantly cheaper than many other herbal teas on Amazon."
• "The price per box was lower than what I had been paying locally so that's a bonus."
• "I always have this on hand and love that I can get several boxes at a time. It is cheaper this way than in the store."

Cons:

• "I paid $34.47 for 6 boxes, which was already a huge increase in price. I only got one box."
• "But for some terrible reason, between May 2023 and now (September 2023), the price jumped to $32!"
• "When I came back a couple of days later, the price was over 24 bucks and is now almost 26."
• "I clearly ordered a pack of 6 ... But only got 1, for 17 bucks."
• "But all of a sudden the prices more than doubled."
• "Once again an apparently popular tea flavor has been rendered unavailable directly from AMZ but is being sold on AMZ at ridiculously inflated prices."
• "I would not buy it again from an Amazon seller because you just don’t know how old and faded the tea is."

Packaging

Pros:

• "We really appreciate the packaging too."
• "The boxes of tea came shipped in their carton which was great because there was no damaged or dented boxes."
• "The package came quickly and in excellent condition."
• "Great teabags. No tag or string which saves a tree, from time to time."
• "The quality is top-notch, and the packaging is convenient and easy to use."
• "Amazon subscription is wonderful: an order of six boxes arrives every few months right to my door."
• "I like that the bags do not have strings on them."

Cons:

• "Because there were no boxes, I have no way of knowing whether the tea is expired."
• "I would have preferred teabags to be in airtight package for freshness, but they come in a cellophane wrapped box, with wax paper to hold them all."
• "I don't like their wax paper packaging. I'd rather my tea be individually packaged for lasting freshness."
• "Secondly my box was severely damaged and fluid got to the tea making it undrinkable it is disgusting."
• "Very disappointed to find that three of the six boxes have teabags that barely have any tea in them."
• "I ordered a 'pack of 6' but the sealed Celestial box only contained 3."
• "My only true qualms with these is the wasteful packaging."
