With all this talk about the Garden View Tea Room, I'm wondering what everyones #1 tea pick is. Personally, I want to get a spiced tea (though I realize they don't have chai, something along those lines), so I was thinking about the Russian Earl Grey. Thoughts?


Whats your favorite tea?

Taste of Summer - Delicate Refreshing and Floral.

Organic Lychee Green - Perfumed in the Traditional Chinese manner with the sweet and complex bouquet of lychee.

Cassis - An exceptionally aromatic tea with a rich black currant flavor that balances on the edge of the cup. This tea always reminds one of our founders of his childhood afternoons spent with his Grandmother.

Organic Tangerine Rooibos - A healthful cup of organic Rooibos from South Africa, infused with the sweet character of sunny citrus. Enjoy both hot and over ice.

Mountain Berry - Saskatoon berries (native to Canada), currants raisins and blueberries.

Custom Blends
Made exclusively for Gardenview Tea Room.

Gardenview Blend - A signature blend made exclusively for Gardenview Tea Room.

Princess Breakfast Tea - A sweet custom blend of South African organic rooibos flavored with vanilla bean and a hint of strawberries. Rich in antioxidants and vitamins, and naturally decaffeinated.

Green and White Teas

Silver Leaf - A white tea harvested from south of the Yangtze river region. A very delicate flavor.

Black Teas

Imperial English Breakfast - Elegant and refined smooth sweetness. A blend of Ceylon and China Black Teas. Decaf English Breakfast also available.

Russian Earl Grey - Inspired by the old tradition of shipping tea with lemon for flavor: Made from the rind of spicy Bergamot orange to give the exotic blend of citrus.

Eros - Medium bodied Ceylon: Sweet Mandarin orange with warm vanilla for a sweet, smooth and creamy finish.

Thunderbolt Darjeeling - Thin bodied light tea with a floral aroma. The tea holds a distinctive tannic characteristic and a musky spiciness. It is often referred to by tea connoisseurs as muscatel, a grape varietal found in sweeter wines.

Herbal Infusion

Harmony - A tranquil blend of sweet chamomile blossoms, peppermint, allspice and orange blossoms for a mild and sweet taste.

Chamomile Flowers - A tranquil and calming herbal infusion of sweet and fragrant golden chamomile blossoms combined for a mild and sweet taste. Soft and musty aroma combined with a smooth, apple-like finish.

Vanilla Rooibos - Rich and full bodied with creamy vanilla finish.

Nobo Whole Fruit - Full bodied and rich in sweetness. An array of berries and apple, accompanied with hibiscus, rose hips, and cornflowers.

Green Leaves: Green tea is grown mostly in Taiwan, China and Japan. China green tea is known for its mild and subtle tastes, refreshing aromas and pale hues of the teas.

White Leaves: Originally harvested in the northern Fujian province of China from wild tea bushes, White teas are highly prized because of they consist of top buds and leaves only.

Black Leaves: Black tea is grown in China, India, Sri Lanka and Africa. It is the most common type of tea in the Western world.

Herbal Infusions: A collection of herbs, flowers, fruits, berries and spices from around the world. Herbal infusions are naturally caffeine free.

Oolong Tea: Oolong is a semi-fermented tea. It undergoes the same treatment as black tea, only it is fermented for less time than black. Instead of rolling the leaf, only the edges of each leaf are rolled.
 
My favorite is one that they don't currently have on the menu, but you can still order, at least I could when I was there in May. It is called Mad Hatter tea. Here is a description:

Mad Hatter - A combination of black and green tea, blended with passion fruit, pomegranate, and vanilla.
 
I like the Princess Breakfast Tea. It is light with the hint of strawberries. My Mom likes the Eros. I have had a few others and they have all been good. Enjoy your afternoon tea.:wizard:
 

I love anything with rooibos - I've had the tangerine rooibos and vanilla rooibos and enjoyed both. But I think the princess breakfast tea sounds even better - I'll have to try it sometime!
 
Eros is my favorite! (I probably shouldn't have put that in writing. They're sure to get rid of it now.)
 
I love the Harmony. I'm a big fan of peppermint tea and the CM suggested this since they don't have straight peppermint.
 
I love the Eros tea... especially with cream and sugar (tastes just like an orange dreamscicle!). The rooibos' are great as well. I would steer clear of the Gardenview blend, since it tasted like a frou frou version of Lipton to me (not a snob, I drink Lipton all the time, but I wanted something different from afternoon tea :)).
 
When we went I loved the Gardenview Blend and was disappointed that I couldn't buy some.

Yup, me too!

I sure hope I can get it this Oct!
 
I'm a fan of black teas and oolong though I must refrain since it causes kidney stones. I can't have chamomile at all b/c I'm allergic to it. It burns me when it touches my skin. I have to think of what would happen if I ingested it. I've heard it's a soothing tea with a nice flavor.

I got it in May also; love it and buy a tin to have at home each time.:thumbsup2
 
Haven't had any yet as we're going in 2 weeks but wondering what would be the closest to Orange Pekoe?

(Not for me...hubby is picky)

I'm going to ask for the Mad Hatter hoping they still have it.
