"There is a garden overlooking the Yangtze River gorge where an elderly man contemplates his life while sipping a cup of Green Ginger. Perhaps you would like to join him." ~on each tea packet

A friend sent me this tea and I've been in love with the slightly bitter flavor. It is quite exotic and fragrant. The ingredients are green teas, natural flavors, ginger and lemongrass.

This tea begs to be blended with orange blossom honey.

I've tasted many teas and this is by far the most exotic tea I've tried yet. This is pear ginger bliss.

~The Rebecca Review

An incredibly refreshing drink when iced! Mix in a teaspoon of honey while your tea is warm and then pour over a generous amount of ice. Because of the ice, use two bags and steep for three minutes or more depending on your taste. You will be pleasantly surprised!

This tea is really out of the ordinary, and I think people either love it or hate it! I LOVE it! It has a wonderful flavor and is one of my favorites. Give it a try; you might be pleasantly surprised.

okay -- first, the tea is terrific. since we ALL have different taste buds {flash back to 8th grade science class with the litmus paper test, where half the class tasted bitterness and the rest tasted nothing :o) }, so people will have different reactions, obviously. this is one of the best tasting teas--period; the ginger/pear hints are phenomenal and even the smell is incredible before the tasting experience. having said that, you need to know if you are doing price shopping, amazon is WRONG w/the tea bag count...there are ONLY 20 bags, NOT 24; hence, it would have been cheaper @ other websites, so very disappointed...

I love this tea and have a hard time finding it in stores so I was thrilled when I found it available on 'Subscribe and Save'. Unfortunately, even before my first order was gone, the item was discontinued. Doesn't give me a lot of faith in 'Subsribe and Save' for ordering specific, hard-to-find items.

NB: My review is of the tea itself and not the merchant. Also, although 24 tea bags is listed, only 20 come in the box.

Straight out of the package the aroma was a halting sweet and spicy with fruity undertones made even more potent when brewed. It's too bad that the taste couldn't live up to that exciting fragrance. From the name (Green Ginger) I expected to taste a bit more ginger and a lot less pear. To be clear, the tea was all right, but rather underwhelming for this ginger lover.

The Green Tea was old product. The Tea bags easily tore when they were opened. I will not order any tea from Amazon

Our local supermarket is phasing out their Tazo tea selection, so I'm working my way through what they have left. On the shelf, and recommended by a fellow shopper, was Tazo's Green Ginger tea (pkg of 24 individual bags).

Tazo describes its Green Ginger tea as "a dazzling blend with sweet, spicy ginger & a touch of pear essence", and further describes it as "its yin is smooth green tea, its yang is spicy ginger root. And to make it more interesting, there's a touch of pear essence we add for a fragrant finish. We call that part "yow"."

Whatever Tazo is doing with this blend, they are doing it right. It is a really nice tea that is smooth, tasty & satisfying. It is not harsh like a green tea can be nor is it too "fruity" or too "gingery". I taste a mild ginger flavor but not a strong pear flavor at all (certainly not like the Bigelow Organic Rooibos with Asian Pear Tea, 1.28-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 6)Bigelow Tea Organic Rooibos Pear K-Cup For Keurig Brewers, 25-Count, Boxes (Pack of 2) which was not my favorite blend).

Try the Tazo Green Ginger. I hope you like it as much as I do (& as much as the stranger who recommended it to me). I'm going back to the store before they sell out.

Note: I normally drink my tea with milk & a spot of sugar. I tried this blend "my way" & plain - both ways are excellent.

I'm not normally a green tea or a ginger tea drinker but when I had some stomach problems, my acpuncturist suggested ginger tea. Rather than steeping fresh ginger I tried all the ginger teas on the market, far and away this is the best. I always have at least one cup a day.

We love this tea cold and warm. Excellent for year round use. Nice ginger taste. Not overpowering. Good balance. Add a slice of orange for a nice citrus twist to it. Highly recommended!
