Where's the mint???
Average Review:

I have tried Moroccan Mint Green teas from many companies (Adaigo.com, Bigelow, Celestial Seasonings, Stash, even CoffeeBean Direct!)and of all of all of them, it pains me to say, the LEAST mintiest is Harney & Sons. It is a bad tea? No, certainly not, but I for one enjoy a very minty tea. Moroccan Mint by Harney is not this tea. (If you too are in search of mint, the best I have found is actually at Coffee Bean Direct). I truly mourn this fact because I so love this company, what it stands for and its many outstanding teas. Unfortunately, I will not be purchasing my next round of Moroccan Mint from Harney and Sons.

I love Moroccan Mint tea, but this, not so much
Average Review:

I use to drink it when I live in Sidi Yahia, Morocco. I knew I would not get the same as it was there, but I must say evenT Teavana's Moroccan Mint tastes better than HS
I found it very bitter no matter how I changed amounts, temps or brew time. I won't be buying this one again.

This is my favorite morning tea.
Average Review:

This is the tea that I reach for most mornings. I am never disappointed. Great aroma and taste. Seems soothing with the mint and a great way to start the day.

I made an honest effort to like this tea...
Average Review:

I tried I really tried. While I typically enjoy Harney's teas, but this one I just can't recommend personally. When I first tried this tea, it was like boiled mixed greens. I admit that I realized that I steeped it for a bit too long, and after reading one review I adjusted my steeping time to 3 minutes. Still it tasted like it was poured from an old boot. I tried another cup, steeping it for 2 minutes, bleh, and then another steeping for 1 minute. I can't taste mint, all I get is bitter boiled mixed green taste at varying strengths. I liked mixed greens, but with a piece of meat next to it.

Warning: Stale Tea
Average Review:

I was really looking forward to my order of Moroccan Mint. I think the combination of green tea's astringent body and peppermint's aroma complement each other well. Yet, Harney's Moroccan Mint was a disappointment. After opening the dented tin, I was overwhelmed with a specific, unpleasant odor. While I waited for my water to boil, it dawned on me. The smell is reminiscent of middle school locker rooms and dirty ashtrays, or more precisely, tea that has been exposed to condensation, allowed to fester, and then dried. Harney and Sons is my favorite tea store. So in good faith, I plowed through the putrid aroma to sample the body of the tea. The body of the tea is absolutely banal. Even though I can identify the peppermint leaves in the loose leaf tea, the beverage holds no resemblance either the peppermint flavor or the cooling sensation from the peppermint oils. All in all, the tin of Moroccan Mint I received from Harney's was not an accurate reflection of H&S's wonderful teas. I believe I may have received a

Great tea!
Average Review:

This is a really delicious tea! Its very unique and good. It's minty but not overpowering just enough! The gunpowder green really balances out.

Moroccan Mint is lovely
Average Review:

I'm not giving it 5 stars, because I feel that should be reserved for something so transcendent that my hands tremble as I type. This tea, however, gets a strong 4 stars. It's minty, but not overwhelming. It has a very nice finish. It takes sugar well, of course, but it's also quite good without. Terrific on ice. I'll be buying it frequently.

Never get tired of Moroccan Mint
Average Review:

I love this tea. Even my husband and kids who don't like green tea ask me to make it. Its also excellent as iced tea. Also want to mention that I don't put any sugar.Its not bitter if you brew it no more than 3 min.No aftertaste.
