5.0 out of 5 stars My all-time favorite tea February 16, 2008

By R. Kyle TOP 500 REVIEWERVINE™ VOICE

It's wintertime and there's nothing better than a hot cup of tea on a cold winter's day. Tazo's "Wild Sweet Orange" has been a favorite tea of mine for almost 10 years now. I first got a sip of Tazo when we lived in Portland, OR and I learned from the natives that a hot cup of tea from a local vendor was better than a pair of gloves to keep you warm. I still love "Wild Sweet Orange" especially with just a hint of cinnamon to pick up the flavor.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great invigorating tea with citrus accents..... June 22, 2007

By D. Pawl VINE™ VOICE

I am simply wild about Tazo Wild Sweet Orange Tea. This herbal tea is so good. Granted, you don't have the seeds to spit out afterwards (like you would if you were eating an actual orange) but details, details, details! This is a great tea to have on hand for guests and is great when served with biscuits. I am thinking any plain butter cookie, so it compliments the flavor of the tea. The ingredients, for the discriminating tea sipper are: lemongrass, blackberry leaves, rosehips, spearmint, orange essence -- and other herbs, spices and natural flavors. All of these flavors go so well together. You won't be disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Marrakesh in a Tea Bag? YES! May 2, 2009

By Marion VINE™ VOICE

I don't drink much tea, except for sweet tea when I eat out, or my own Mint tea made from my herb garden. I've been sick with a horrible cold and sore throat and was rummaging through my drawer of tea bags late last night and found a Tazo sampler I'd had for years. I tried this flavor, Wild Sweet Orange, and fell instantly head-over-heels in love. It totally lives up to the colorful, yummy words on the little packet.

This is what's written on the packet: "Imagine the invigorating bite of a sweet orange in a market in Marrakesh and you get some sense of the taste of Tazo Wild Sweet Orange tea." I must say it tastes even better than described. I was really pissed off that I only had one bag, so I looked it up online and ordered four boxes so I won't have to worry about running out again.

The ingredients listed are: lemongrass, blackberry leaves, citric acid, rose hips, spearmint leaves, orange peel, safflowers, hibiscus flowers, rose petals, natural orange essence, ginger root and licorice root."

It's also caffeine-free. I highly recommend this tea. I'm even going to try it cold when I get my "stash" in the mail.

4.0 out of 5 stars Basic Orange Herb Tea September 14, 2006

By O. Brown HALL OF FAMETOP 50 REVIEWERVINE™ VOICE

****

Tazo's Wild Sweet Orange Herbal Infusion is a nice orange herbal tea. It contains lemongrass, blackberry leaves, citric acid, rose hips, spearmint leaves, natural flavors, orange peel, safflowers, hibiscus flowers, rose petals, natural orange essence, ginger root and licorice root. It is not sweet, very fruity, and not subtle at all, a wonderful tea if you enjoy orangey teas.

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 lively blend of sweet citrus herbs and orange essences. Sweet, yet tart, this is a cup of liquid sunshine, radiating multi-layered orange flavors with exotic hints of spice and a distinctive floral finish. Wild, indeed." On their web site, Tazo describes the flavor profile of Wild Sweet Orange as "tart, sweet, smooth, licorice". Tazo describes the aroma as "oranges, roses, lime". This is pretty accurate, although the words give hope that the taste of the tea never quite approaches.

I would rate this tea, and Tazo in general, as 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 Wild Sweet Orange gets only four stars.

5.0 out of 5 stars My favorite tea in its class December 5, 2009

By John R. Mcelroy

There are three broad categories of herbal tea that I rely on throughout the Fall, Winter, and early Spring:

1) Citrus and lemongrass
2) Rose hips and hibiscus
3) Chamomile

For me, Tazo has held first place in each of these categories for the last several years. This is no small feat - I'm cutthroat when it comes to my tea collection! Wild Sweet Orange is by far the best citrus and lemongrass tea I have ever had.

For those of you who have never tried it, do not be mislead by the name. It is extremely tart and not at all sweet. I happen to love tart, fruity herbal teas and this recipe is so closely tuned to my tastes I could swear that the good people at Tazo had consulted a sample of my DNA during the design process.

I actually never expected to like it, since I don't drink orange-flavored teas as a rule; they're generally too sweet and mellow for my tastes. I ended up with my first cup of Wild Sweet Orange due to a mix-up at the store a few years back and it absolutely blew my mind. The flavor profile is complex and I never get tired of drinking it.

If you like tart, fruity, teas then put down that cup of Lemon Zinger and give Wild Sweet Orange a try.
