A very floral tea perfectly blended with a brisk black tea. A perfect tea party tea drank with white lace gloves on your fingers and tiny cucumber sandwiches. |

A good floral tea. Not the best I've had, but still enjoyable. The scent is much stronger than the taste. I prefer it plain. |

A lovely floral blend -- so very tasty! |

I needed a whimsical tea today for this mad as a hatter winter weather. This tea should do. It's also very tasty. Immediately on opening the pouch, I am reminded of all of the flowers that are constantly in anything Wonderland related, from the book to the Disney movie. So many flowers in this cup! The blend is made up of an Indian black tea, rose Congou, violet flavoring, and tons of pretty flowers. The flavor is divine -- both rose and violets equally take the stage but the black tea also comes through amazingly well. It's malty, smooth and sweet. I'd love the base tea even without the floral flavors. I'd definitely stock up on this one. It's one of my favorite floral teas.
Steep #1 // 1 1/2 teaspoons for a mug // 12 minutes after boiling // 3 minute steep

Nothing short of magical! |

Let me first say that my favorites from SVTea are strawberry shortcake and creamy earl grey. Stating that first lets you know I am one that loves flavored teas and not simplistic flavors. This tea is my new favorite! I sipped this tea and was so very overwhelmed with how delightful it truly is! It tastes like Im transposed into a magical and whimsical story, sitting next to the mad hatter. It was so very cheery, feminine and scrumptious! I love it!! My absolute new favorite tea! I will be returning for a larger portion and have it as one of my go tos. Thank you Simpson and Vail for such beautiful tea that is beyond reproach! |

Seems the other reviewers werent quite so enthusiastic about this blend as I am. My mother read me *Alice in Wonderland* and *Through the Looking-Glass* when I was very little, and I have loved both stories ever since. (Actually, Ive wanted to LIVE in Looking-Glass world ever since.) When I first read the list of ingredients of LCs Black Tea Blend, I recognized elements Ive enjoyed in other tea brands--especially one that was sent to me from a friend in Germany--so I figured itd be a safe bet. I am delighted with the violet notes and have discovered that when Im feeling blue or lacking muster, this tea brightens my day. I enjoy it with a dab of honey and a dollop of milk. |

Mad as a hatter |
12/3/2016 |
It was agreed among a tasting party that if you preffered this tea over any other black you must be mad as a hatter. The tea seemed to put my tastebuds through a unpleasant gambit (or croquet field?) Of flavors. Many different smell and taste comparisons were jovially discussed among the group of 10 of us who tried it. We might all be mad here, but we werent over this tea. |

This one is not for me. |

I drink my tea black. Perhaps this tea would be better with milk and sweetener. I used too much the first time and felt like I was drinking perfume. I do like rose but this was too much for me. I tried it again with less tea but still not something I want more of. If you love rose, this is the tea for you! |

This is a blend of tea that I wish I had when I was a little girl! It has a strong aroma that makes me look back fondly on little girl tea parties with my sisters and our stuffed animal guests! |
