The Republic of Tea is a company that I have bought a lot of tea from over the years. They offer a great amount of good quality tea options to choose from.
One of their teas is called Honey Ginseng Green Tea. I have bought a few containers of it with the most recent being about a year ago. In this post I will talk more about this product and give my review on it.
Honey Ginseng Green Tea
This is one of The Republic of Tea's most popular green teas. You can see from the reviews how happy people have been with it. The description also mentions that the tea was featured on the Today Show.
The Honey Ginseng Green Tea is advertised as being good for your mind and body. This is due to the ingredients that are as follows:
Green tea (of course!)- It supposedly has many benefits. One of those is its ability to provide physical/mental energy without the jitteriness that caffeine may cause some people to have.
Linden flowers- These come from the linden tree that is native to Europe. It has been traditionally used for relieving mental tension, anxiety, colds/flu symptoms, high blood pressure and more.
Panax Ginseng-This is a plant found in Asia. It is used for cognitive functioning and put into cosmetics.
Eleuthero- This is also known as Siberian Ginseng but it is not related to American and Asian ginseng. It is traditionally used for cognitive functioning, colds/flus and physical energy.
Bee pollen- Some people who practice traditional medicine say that this pollen helps with asthma, allergies, physical energy, cognitive functioning and more.
The tea is said to have a delicate and sweet flavor. This is due to the the flowers, pollen and honey that is in it. If you are allergic to any of the ingredients that this tea contains, it is best to skip it.
Honey Ginseng Green Tea is sold in tea bag form at prices ranging from $0.18-$0.75 per cup depending on how many you want to buy at once.
My review of Honey Ginseng Green Tea
Like I have said before, green tea is my favorite type of tea to drink. It just tastes so pleasant to me!
The first time I looked at The Republic of Tea website was years ago and the Honey Ginseng Green Tea really caught my eye. This is due to the mind and body benefits that it was said to have.
I also have always loved the taste of honey so that was another thing that made me want to try it.
I remember liking this tea a lot and thinking that it was one of the greatest things since sliced bread. This is what made me want to try it again recently.
Unfortunately, it was not like how I remembered it and I did not like it. I do not know if it is because my tastes have changed since then or what.
I found the honey flavor to be way overpowering. Even though I do like that flavor, the intensity of it in this tea was too much. It was as if I was drinking a hot cup of just artificial honey or something.
I still like the company though and some other things they have to offer so I am not going to throw them under the bus. In terms of recommending the tea to others...I do! We all have different taste buds and clearly a lot of other people like the tea.
The ginseng and green tea may have a lot of benefits so drink up if you are interested in the tea!
In conclusion
The Honey Ginseng Green Tea by The Republic of Tea is just not for me anymore. It is too bad that I bought a big bag of it because I really can not stomach it.
It is great that many people like it so much and I still think it is worth other people trying. Maybe not buy as much as I did just in case.
Have you tried this tea or any tea from The Republic of Tea? What did you think about it?
