Hey, the smell is wondrous and its very soothing. The taste of the white tea and blueberry pomegranate are perfectly blended. The pack of six is well worth it, this tea will become your go to tea for everyday! Enjoy

This is the best white tea I have ever had. Tried other Lipton flavors but this one has them all beat..Teenagers love it too.

My current favorite tea. I had basically given up on Lipton teas before trying the pyramid series. I'm glad I gave them one more try.

I got this after reading about a study that said four cups of white tea a day - and no other changes to diet or exercise - could result in 4 to 8 lbs of weight loss in a year, and would actually reduce the number of fat cells in a person's body! [...]

One note: this tea is not just white tea, but has green tea as well. While I don't object to the tea having green tea in it - the study suggested that green tea was also good for weight loss, but not as good as white - it's certainly not obvious from the name, and I feel a bit deceived. If it's White & Green Tea, call it White & Green tea, not White tea. That's the reason I knocked this down to 4 stars.

For those that think that four cups of tea is a lot... You're right. But this tea is mild enough, and tasty enough, that I've been doing it for over a week and haven't gotten sick of it yet. We'll see if that keeps up!

I always liked to consider myself a tea drinker, but I really wasn't until I found these tea bags. Delicious! I was skeptical at first since Lipton, while a well-known name, doesn't really make artisan teas all that well. I was so wrong. The tea is a perfect balance of sweet and savory, with each sip lending itself naturally into the next. Because it's a white tea, there are very low tannins. And the tea bags themselves are fun. These are not your mother's teabags. Way cool mesh with a pyramid design allows for better steepage (plus it just looks awesome). I definitely recommend this to anyone, tea lover or not! It will make you a convert.

My ship and I, (the H.M.S. Peregrine Cavendish named after the 12th Duke of Devonshire), were traveling the Bay of Bengal in the summer of 1938. King George IV, had taken reign the winter prior. His royal majesty from the House of Windsor still had a tentative grip on the British colony of India. Hearken back to olden days of yore when imperialism was a goal, and not a mangy politicians word.

We were making headway up the Hooglhy River into Calcutta under the guise of His Majesty's Royal Trade Mission with peace offerings to the Maharaja of Bengal. Calcutta was a dicey place round about that time, being our capital in colonized India you know. The locals had grown weary of the legendary British hospitality. A fortnight later, it was near the mouth of the Hooglhy River that we met a blind street beggar who promised us visions of prosperity. At first we questioned this diminutive cheeky fellow, but alas, we listened to his tale. We offered the blind beggar six British royal pounds in exchange for his gift of visions of prosperity. And that is when it happened. The blind beggar offered us this strange, yet edible fruit. "Eat the fruit of this Pomegranate", the blind beggar said, "and the visions of your prosperity will come to light".

For good penance, the blind beggar gave us seven pomegranates for our continued journey. Boson's Mate Micklegal, a fine purveyor of English tea's, and the second most knowledgeable of my sailor's had a unique idea. Boson's Mate Micklegal decided to steep some loose black tea leaves with blueberries we picked up from our travels along the coast of Palestine along with the strange edible portions of the blind beggar's pomegranate. Much to our extreme delight, what an explosion of flavor! I informed Boson's Mate Micklegal that he was definitely on to something. While this delicious concoction was certainly no Earl Grey (as any honorable Britain would tell you, there's no comparison to "The Earl"), it was certainly divine, chamomile be damned! Though summer's on the Bay of Bengal were most treacherous, with a cup of Blueberry and Pomegranate Tea by your side while fixing the braggywinkle's on the bowline, the fresh smell of the salty air on your lips, a better day one cannot achieve.

Unfortunately, Boson's Mate Micklegal found a bottle of Glen Fiddyich stowed away in one of the hold's. Boson's Mate Micklegal ended up getting pissed off the fine scotch and forgot his wonderful concoction. In his plastered stupor, Boson's Mate Micklegal heaved the six remaining Pomegranate's off the aft deck of the H.M.S. Peregrine Cavendish, losing the wonderful recipe forever. What Rubbish.

Until the hack tea makers at the Lipton company devised their own version of Blueberry Pomegranate Tea. While not as divine as the tea Boson's Mate Micklegal concocted in that summer of 1938, they came darn bloody close. Cheers Lipton! Thanks for the memories.

received delivery 3 days prior to estimated time. brewed tea - very light taste - noticed that it got darker after removing tea bag after two minutes. flavor and aroma are not very strong...

This is a nice tea, but it has a tendancy to brew too quickly and becomes a little bitter. It helps to add a little sweetner of some kind. IT SMELLS AWESOME! and the blueberry really has a nice flavor. Personally, I still prefer Lipton's "superfruit green tea" and would recomend that, but this still a good one to try... just pay attention when you brew it.

It has a pleasant taste and it's what I expected. It's not 5 stars because it doesn't taste as pure as loose tea, but it's still tasty. Make sure you don't let your white tea steep longer the 3-4 minutes or it'll taste bitter.

Very good tea. I'm not sure what others complaining about flavor were drinking, but myself and others I've given it to loved it. I usually make a whole pitcher of it with about 4 bags. Add a little bit of sugar and you are in business. Most of my regular teas need 1-2 Cups of sugar in this same pitcher and this needs 1/2 cup or less. It has a very nice fruity flavor that needs very little enhancement.

The plastic bags aren't that big of a deal either. It is a thin mesh that doesn't amount to much and we put it with our plastic in the recycle can.
