My brother described the smell of this as “the inside of Bed Bath and Beyond… no, the other one. Bath and Body Works. That one. WITH THE SMELLS.”
The strong and enthusiastic odor of this blend is definitely one of its defining characteristics. It smells sweet, nutty, vanilla-like — which is, as it turns out, precisely what it is. It tastes like the illustrations from the original Candyland look: rounded and bright and lip-smacking.
Kids like playing Candyland. It’s easy to learn, it takes a while, and anyone can win. Everyone has a chance.
Like Candyland, this tea doesn’t live in the land of adults. Due to its sweetness and decaffeinated status, it is accessible to children, too! Share it with yours today.
Here’s the scoop!
Leaf Type: Black (Decaf)
Where to Buy: Plum Deluxe
Description
Given the state of world affairs, we thought you could use a good cup of something with no expectations attached — hence the aptly named No Obligations blend. We use a fresh, vibrant decaf Ceylon black tea for the base and add both hazelnut and almond extracts with some spiced cinnamon, a pinch of cocoa nibs, and a creamy vanilla.
The result is a cup that will wrap around you tighter than your granny’s arms. Sip and relax, knowing that you’re doing the best that you can and that taking a moment for yourself is always a great idea.

Decaf Momo from Lupicia. . . .
Before going into this, I want to preface this review by stating (1) I don’t usually like decaffeinated blends and (2) I tend to usually not enjoy Lupicia’s black base. So, this is not a tea I would have ever picked for myself despite enjoying other Momo teas, but it was shared with me by a tea friend and for that reason alone, it is worth a try. Alright, so let’s get started.
Decaf Momo is a white peach tea on a decaffeinated black tea base. The smell of both the dry and steeped blend is mouthwatering, like a juicy and fresh peach. Thankfully, that transfers over to the taste as well. The base only contributes a slight briskness that blends to the peach flavor. I suppose something about either the decaffeinating process or the strong taste of the peach has hidden the usually astringent base making for a tea that is actually quite nice.
Obviously going into this, I did not have high hopes. I am happy to report that my worries were unfounded as this, like the other variety of Momo teas Lupicia offers, is a great peach offering for those looking for a tea with that flavor. Plus, being decaffeinated, it is a tea that can be enjoyed anytime of day.

Tasters Review:
SororiTEA Sisters was one of the first Tea Review Blogs to review a bottled tea from Marley Beverage Company and we are proud to say that we have a 2nd review to share! This time around we have All Natural Relaxation Marley’s Mellow Mood Black Tea – Peach Raspberry Passion Fruit. It says it reduces stress and relieves tension. It’s decaf, too! To check out the review we posted back in November for Marley Beverage Company’s Green Tea and Honey CLICK HERE!
As far as a bottled iced tea this is pretty tasty! As far as a decaf-sweetened-bottled-iced-tea this is pretty awesome, I must say! Yes, it’s sweet and it’s fruity but here is a lengthier review of this groovy product…
Upon opening the bottle I could smell peach followed by passion fruit with a little berry tied in. It almost smelled wine-like. It was a glorious aroma! 
My first sip was an eye-opening one! It was much flavorful than I expected! A nice-sweet-fruity bottled iced tea is certainly what we have here! The black tea taste isn’t in the forefront – it seems to be hiding in the background – but with all of the other flavors going on here there is a lot of others to keep me interested and busy! I could taste the Passion Fruit first and then the Raspberry and the peach isn’t as strong as I thought it would be but that is ok! It doesn’t leave a funky aftertaste which I appreciate!
This is another pleasant surprise from Marley Beverage Company.
Now…I’ll leave you with another of my favorite Bob Marley songs…
