Highly recommend this tea either on its own or with another tea,
I have never liked the taste of sugar! I don't understand people who say that Stevia has a bad taste, I have had various brands of ground Stevia during the last 27 years but this is the first time I have had it as a Tea, I mix it Half and half with my favourite tea Rooi, I am very much enjoying it, it is a pure herb to your cup, thank you.

Sweet tasting dried stevia tea leaves
This 100g bag of herbal tea is well packaged in 2 layers of paper - the inner layer resembles baking parchment and the outer is brown paper. The stevia rebaudiana dried tea leaves are grown in Spain for a London based company. The best before date is over 2 years; plenty of time to drink it. There are no brewing instructions for use so I had to guess. I put the tea in a fine mesh infuser but a lot of the tea dust fell through and it ended in the bottom of the mug anyway. The tea has lots of different sized bits of leaves and stalks, the green stalks taste sweet, the thicker brown stalk taste of aniseed. There is a lot of tea dust which means using an infuser is pointless. When making the tea, I erred on the side of caution and used half a teaspoon of tea in a mug and poured on just off the boil hot water then let it steep for 5mins. The taste is sweet but not overly so, (obviously use more leaves if you like more sweetness.). A bit disappointing as there is virtually no flavour as you would expect with other herbal teas. It was drinkable but not refreshing like a traditional cuppa or stimulating like coffee. I will in future add it to fruit teas which can sometimes be a bit tart.

Very sweet and nice tea, the package could be nicer
Stevia is very widely used as replacement for the sugar and is considered to be healthier. I use this tea as an addition to whatever other tea I drink, for example, I've got filters for tea and when I prepare a mint tea or turmeric or any other one, I add a bit of stevia in that filter altogether with the main tea and it gives a slightly different taste and some sweetness, as well. At the same time I feel as I drink a bit healthier tea and enjoy it sweet. If I would rate only the tea - 5 of 5, but as we're here to rate the product as a whole, I would like to see a better package in terms of - at least add a self zipping mechanism or whatever, a permanent sticky band to keep it dry and the flavor inside for all the time. As well, I would like to have the package made with some humidity proof materials as well as teas are the products that don't like this factor at all. I love the tea, I would think twice before buying again mostly because of the package.

Three stars
I really don't like the taste of Stevia when I have it as a sweetner in hot drinks, so was very unsure whether I would like this. It looks and smells like some sort of dried grass, and the appearance certainly puts you off before you've even tried it! The leaves are quite small, so when using in a diffuser I found some bits did manage to get throught the mesh and float around at the bottom of the cup! It can be mixed with other things, like mint for additional herbal teas or you can drink it on it's own. Personally I found it really sweet, and I didn't like the bits floating around so I'm not sure whether it's really for me. If you have a sweet tooth and like a sweetened drink, then this may work for you.

Sweet than I expected
I was expecting this "Stevia Herbal Tea" less sweet in my opinion. Still nice and fresh but sweet at some point.You can mix with other tea bags if you like it.Is better when You wait a bit and filter the water because of the small size of the leaves.The smell is good and nice, you can feel the herbs in there.Is a 100 g packet that you can recycle after. Is good tea, if you like sweet you must try this tea.

Sweet alternative to sugar
I was not sure what to expect from Stevia Herbal tea. I tried it for the first time and on its own I found it was very sweet and I did not like the flavour at all,but mix it into any other tea and it just gives you a very sweet drink. I am not sure if I would buy any of this in the future.

nice to blend with other loose teas
i perfeer a nice loose teas and this mixes well with other if you want to cut out some sugar. as it has natural sweetness come thoughi like this with some flavoured teas as they can be very biter so this takes the edge off.

Incredibly sweet tea
I am tea obsessed and I have been drinking various herbal teas since childhood. I actually didn’t know stevia can be used/exists as a tea!I know what stevia is and I have tried stevia sweetener (powder form) when eating out in vegan shops. Stevia is very sweet. Taste is a bit more like those artificial sweeteners rather than real sugar.But I haven’t been using sugar for sweetening the stuff for decades. Sugar is absolutely everywhere and added into everything! It’s like a drug hence buying anything which looks like white sugar always put me off.First impression: tea doesn’t look pretty. No nice leaves or nice flower heads. It also smells very much like a hay when dry.Second impression: wow, it tastes incredibly sweet!!I used my usual measurement for the herbal teas (I like strong teas) 2 teaspoons for 250ml glass.I couldn’t recognise much of any taste but sweetness. It tasted like my tea was over-sweetened with sugar or sweeteners. I found that fascinating. I enjoyed the tea after the meal as I would enjoy the desert.Then I used the same glass for camomile tea with a bit of Stevia tea left for the second brewing and it made my camomile tea nicely sweet! So nice!!I do love this tea! Not sure I will be drinking it on its own all the time but I will definitely be adding it to other medicinal teas which don’t taste very nice.Also already thinking whether I could use the sweetness of the tea somehow when making raw energy balls and other healthy snacks.I know I could go and buy powdered stevia but that never interested me. But the sweet tea? Amazing trick of nature - purest sugar form in dry leaves.I would recommend it if you have sweet tooth or like sweet teas.I use glass jars for my teas it’s handy and I like to see the tea leaves/herbs. I store them in the dark cupboard.
