Paromi Organic Jasmine Green Tea, 15 Count Jar

Wrap-ageI'm interested in trying Paromi's teas in their latest packaging to see what, if any, differences may come with the alternative. With this and like purchases, my husband and I appreciate the jars for several reasons: They seem to ship and transport sturdily, preserve the aroma and flavor of the tea fairly well over time, and are nifty for reuse (anything from pens, pencils, chalk pastels, and other art and office supplies to small cycling tools, parts...really whatever small things lying around the house requiring confinement or a last-minute hiding space lol).$$$First, the three dollar signs don't reflect my impression of Paromi's pricing. Relatively speaking, the brand isn't expensive, but for the typical working or middle class American outside of the U.S.'s larger cities, it's not nothing either. The tea's cost may push the boundaries of some budgets or look indulgent next to Lipton, but I will say that even as someone who grew up with little and prefers to err on the side of penny-pinching, the value that Paromi offers across its array of teas is solid. The Sleep with Me tea just so happens to be a personal favorite (among all of the tea's I've tried, whether their respective costs allow for guzzling or demand savoring). Prepared hot, to combat the chill of fall and winter temps, or cold, for light relief from any spring or summer heat, I find the tea to be effectively calming and tasty.Speaking of taste...The flavor of "Sleep with Me" is distinct from the majority of its chamomile and herbal counterparts -- much appreciated by those of us who aren't addicted to the standard sleep aka lavender-and-such-and-such mixtures promising similar effects. Its sweetness isn't overwhelming, but many people -- myself included at times -- find it sufficient for sippage without added sugars. (Although, a bit of honey and/or steeping a bag or two alongside Paromi's Cinnamon Chai, I think it's named, makes an extra indulgent cup.) In general, Paromi's descriptions and ingredients of their teas seem to accurately represent the given flavor. For those testing out "Sleep with Me" specifically, it may be helpful to know that, if you prefer a strong mug or glass, doubling the recommended amount might taste best.TLDROne, if I didn't just write the equivalent of a novella, I'd say that you're lame for not reading the rest of this review. Since reviews aren't exactly page-turners, but. mine could have taken multiple pages to print, I'll refrain from doing so. Instead, simply take this away: Two/at the very least, this tea is undoubtedly worth trying. If you don't like it, you never read this and are 100% entitled to leave a brief, honest review (don't get all dramatic over tea...like I've just done -- it's weird, I know.) Then follow your review up by practicing what everyone does for Christmas. Regift it (preferably to someone you know -- otherwise, that's REALLY weird). If you love it, you're so welcome 👌😂 Cheers and good luck.- H

This is the best chai tea I’ve ever had! The flavor and aroma are wonderful. Tea is great both hot and cold.

Someone included this particular brand in a gift box I received. I'd never seen it before & since I use mostly loose teas, I already had a favorites list in mind. Unless you buy this cost savings bag size, it normally comes in a black covered, sealed glass jar that is lovely. These bags are the pyramid style so you get actual tea leaves vs tea 'dust' as in most tea bags. When I brewed my first pot, I was sceptical because, as I mentioned, I'm a loose tea person so wasn't sure how I'd like this but I was just taken away by the fragrance & gentle flavors in this tea. There is no harsh, astringent taste like you can get from many green teas (I suppose its all just a matter of personal preference) & it is an absolute pleasure to enjoy. The flavor is clearly green but a refined, mild, full tasting green tea. It's so pleasant that this is a tea I drink by the pot rather than by the cup. Paromi is a brand that gets 5 stars from me for everything I've tried from them. I have some Matcha with Turmeric that is outstanding as well. I think the tea source choice & quality control processes at Paromi are top notch & this green tea is an absolute delight. No grassy taste...just a full, mild, delightful green tea. It is at the top of my list now.

This tea is so yummy!!! Absolutely one of my very favorites.

I like this item health benefits and it taste great 👍

Nice flavor just not strong enough.

I am a serious fan of cinnamon chai tea, and I like this one best of all. The aroma is lovely, filling my kitchen with cinnamon fragrance as it brews. It's not in-your-face overpowering, as some I have tried. I will definitely continue to re-order. The only downside is that I'm no longer able to order the recloseable pouches that the bags used to come in. All that was avabilale this time were the glass jars. The jars are useful for many things, though. I re-use them mostly to store pasta or rice that needs to be kept out of the light and moisture. I'll bet a crafty person could do all sorts of things with them!

My husband has been trying to find a vanilla bourbon tea that is similar to a previous rooibos blend. we knew this wouldn’t be an exact match but it sounded good. No element of vanilla, however. More reminiscent of a hot chocolate inspired tea. Not bad just not as described.
