 I wanted more for this blend---a disappointment! July 20, 2008

Tazo's Awake Black Tea tastes like an ordinary black tea, maybe a little stronger than usual. If you let it brew even a little too long, it becomes bitter. Otherwise, it is fine.
The only ingredient in Awake is black tea---a blend of "black teas". Tazo does not tell you which ones. It is, of course, caffeinated.
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 package, Tazo writes, "a bold breakfast tea of depth and character, invigorating anytime. This eye-opening black tea blend has a full, rich character with hints of dark caramel, malt and black cherries." Well, I'm very disappointed, because I don't taste any of this. Just plain old black tea, and a little on the bitter side at that. On their web site, Tazo describes the flavor profile of Awake as "malty, full of dense, dark cherries". Tazo describes the aroma as "burnt caramel, brown sugar"---whoa! I definitely did not taste this, not at all. Again, just very ordinary black tea.
If you do like this tea, the bulk packaging makes it much more affordable.

 We enjoy this tea every morning. July 18, 2008
I have been purchasing this tea for years. We drink it every morning instead of coffee, and love it..
