 Hibiscus Treat, Fine Tea September 14, 2006
****
Tazo's Passion Herbal Infusion is a somewhat tart, deep, flavorful (hibiscus-y tasting) tea. It is not berry-like in taste, although it is red in color. It's difficult to describe what hibiscus tastes like, but I find it a most pleasant taste. My husband says it tastes like pomegranate to him. Although Passion contains licorice root it is not sweet.
The ingredients in Passion are: hibiscus flowers, natural tropical flavors, citric acid, orange peel, licorice root, cinnamon bark, rose hips, lemongrass and red poppy. It is caffeine-free!
Tazo is an interesting company that makes only super premium teas. They are socially responsible, based in Portland, and have the motto, "The Reincarnation of Tea". Tazo is owned by Starbucks. Their web site is fun and quirky, with a Zen-type focus, definitely worth checking out. It is unclear, though, from their web site, how many of their ingredients are organic or kosher, and they do use some "natural flavors" in their teas--this wording seems a little vague for a super premium tea.
On the paper tea packet, Tazo writes, "A tantalizing deep red tea made from hibiscus flowers, exotic herbs and natural tropical flavors." On their web site, Tazo describes the flavor profile of Passion as "berry, juicy, wine-like, merlot, sweet, earthy, dense". Tazo describes the aroma as "sweet, juicy, red fruits".
I would rate this tea, and Tazo in general, as very good---better than premium teas like Stash or Celestial Seasonings---but not as good as Numi. I'm soooooo spoiled by Numi teas, which is why Tazo Passion gets only four stars.

I'm not the type of person to try different kinds of teas, but when i was at a meeting that did not offer regular tea, i decided to try this one, because of the purple package. It is the BEST tea i have ever had. It is so good when you have a sore throat, too!

The deep purple/red color and hibiscus fragrance is enough to make anyone passionate about tea. Yet, is this really tea? It looks like tea, but it is really an herbal infusion made by steeping hibiscus flowers, orange peel, licorice, cinnamon, rose hips, lemongrass and red poppy in a swirling of hot water.
The flavor is slightly reminiscent of hot apple cider or hot cranberry juice. This tea leaves a tingle on your tongue and I think it goes very well with a spoonful of honey.
I do think you need two tea bags for each cup of tea to fully intoxicate the senses and experience the magic of the ingredients.
Caffeine Free. You can drink this as you type into the night...

Morning Sickness Cure March 29, 2004

This tea, especially iced, has cured my morning sickness! I drink about a 16 oz glass in the am and have some again when I start to feel ill in the afternoon. I don't know why; I stumbled upon it, but it is working!
I absolutely love this tea! February 24, 2004

This is my favorite all time beverage! For people who want to drink more water but aren't excited by the idea, this herbal tea may change your mind! It is caffeine and sugar and calorie free. It tastes a little bit like berries, and it is a little sweet(but not too sweet). The tea is a beautiful red color after it is brewed. I love it hot. I love it cold. It is better than any Kool-Aid, and much much much richer and better and more satisfying than anything by Celestial Seasonings. I put about four or five teabags into a twelve-cup coffee maker and run the hot water through and let it steep for about five minutes. Then I drink some hot and refrigerate the rest. It is a wonderful base for smoothies, for punch, and I will probably try it as a popsicle at some point, too. It is the best herbal tea I have ever tasted-- and it has been a favorite for more than a year now. It is always refreshing, flavorful, and delicious. :) I first found the tea at Starbucks and started loving it there-- but the price here at Amazon is much much better, too. :) Stop in at Starbucks and try it hot or cold... and then order it from Amazon by the case. :)
