One of Our Favorite black Teas |
2/1/2022 |
| Ginger pear is such a wonderful, elegant and flavorful tea. My wife says she definitely taste the pear but to me it taste like really sweet ripe bananas. This black tea even if we steep it for 5 or 6 minutes it is not astringent with tannin. It is Very smooth and makes it such a delight to drink especially with a tea spoon of honey it brings out that full rounded flavor. |

My favorite of the bunch |

| I ordered several of the flavored black teas and this was my favorite. Pear tea is unusual to begin with and this had a good pear taste, without being overpowering. Its sweetness was offset nicely by the subtle ginger. If you are looking for a strong ginger tea, this is not it. It’s only job here is to add complexity. |

great flavor, but a tad too strong for my taste |

| I enjoy this tea a great deal, it's gives you both ginger and pear flavors. My only comment is that a flavor a tad too strong that I Iike in a flavored tea. But I give it 5 stars for the tea quality. |

| The tea has a distinct banana smell. There was very little ginger flavor, so I added some extra dried ginger, and that seemed to do the trick. It's a pretty good tasting tea, but not anything phenomenal in my eye. |

Strong aftertaste |

| Not everything works and this is proof. Love pears. Love ginger. Don't love this particular combination. Actually it was worse for the hour or two after I drank it—a kind of artificial aftertaste that lingered. Ordered the lemon ginger and green lemon ginger at the same time, and they're very good. Maybe the pear flavoring is more difficult to work with. Whatever the reason, that's why the 2-oz. bags are good testers. |

Light pear flavor, very little ginger |

| Once brewed, this tea has a great flavor, that like pear itself, is incredibly delicate and subtle. It tastes remarkably like that fruit, especially once sweetened. However, I don't taste ginger at all. I still recommend the tea...as pear tea it is is unusual and really good, so good that I tried this once at my sister's house years ago when I wasn't a tea drinker, then remembered it and reordered it recently now that I've become serious about tea. But if you're expecting this to taste anything like ginger tea, you will be disappointed, especially if like me you generally drink Thai ginger tea, which is extremely spicy and basically just ginger boiled in water for a long time. |

Rich, flavorful, smooth, and refreshing: a year round fruit treat |

| Simpson & Vails Ginger Pear Black Tea is so flavorful and rich its like eating a piece of cake. Although I like many varieties of ginger and peppermint teas and appreciate their properties as digestive aids, and I also like a citrus flavor in tea now and then, Simpson & Vails Ginger Pear Black Tea is my favorite fruit flavored tea. Ive found many teas by other brands (not Simpson & Vail) with fruits or berries tend to have a lighter, floral, slightly tart or sometimes bitter quality that doesnt stand up well to cream or sweetener, and are often best enjoyed only seasonally. However, Simpson & Vails Ginger Pear Black Tea is smooth, robust, and refreshing with a comforting aroma. Always seems like a luxurious treat, but one that can be indulged in every day, year round! |

| I can taste the pear but the ginger is rather subtle. I do like things very spiced so it might be fine for the average person. |

| It has a nice strong pear flavor that lasts through two steeps. The gingers very light, but noticeable. Cant wait to try it iced next. |

ginger pear black tea |

| I ordered this looking for something slightly spicy from the ginger and it actually has an interesting creamy taste from the pear. If you are looking for something with more spice from the ginger, I wouldnt seek this one out. Even though it wasnt what I had been expecting I absolutely LOVE it! A nice surprise. |

| This tea is a favorite in my home, whether served hot or iced. It is the perfect blend of sweet and spicy—a winner in my book. Friends actually request this flavor more often than any other. |
