Tea Forte Natural Amber Hue Beet Rock Sugar Crystals for Tea and Coffee, Dissolves Quickly, Vegan and Non-GMO, Resealable 1 Pound Bag

Tea lover here. I love that this sweetener offers the perfect level of sweetness to my tea without changing the character of the flavor. I drink a lot of loose herbal teas. This rock style sweetener dissolves quickly. I tend to put my teas with this sweetener in my loose tea infuser and submerge it all together. The rock sugar is always completely dissolved in the amount of time that my tea is steeped which is usually only a couple minutes.I appreciate the cost of buying this rock sugar in bulk. It is much more cost effective than buying it in small amounts. I will continue to purchase this product for the foreseeable future.

Tastes great in hot tea - no after taste but nicely sweet

I tired these for the first time and found I really like the taste. I use them in my tea. I also plan on using them to decorate a boys construction cake with rocks. How fun!

Works well and flavors tea hot or cold very well.

I bought these out of plain old curiousity, after reading reviews.. This is just a solid form of sugar, with a slight taste of molasses.. makes my tea taste even better than plain white sugar. Tea must be boiling hot in order to melt the sugar. Definitely won't spend the money on them again, I'll just stick with regular sugar since these don't really change the taste THAT dramatically. Sweet is sweet. Sugar is sugar.

I first discovered beet sugar on a trip to Ireland over a decade ago. I loved the gentle sweetness and slight earthy flavor with my hot tea (English style, with a splash of milk). I've been trying to find sugar with a similar flavor ever since. These sugar crystals are it! They're not as sweet as cane sugar, and they look beautiful in a clear glass jar or at the bottom of my cup.As other reviewers have said, they don't dissolve easily, but since I only drink hot tea and have always started with sugar and poured hot water over it, it's not a problem. I can see that the paper packaging could tear and be an issue. I haven't had that happen, and the paper does seem more sustainable than plastic, but I'm not sure it's recyclable. I guess I'd rather not have it rip in transit. I also had no issues with the color. The white powdery substance is just sugar. I used every last bit from my package and while the powder isn't as pretty as the crystals, it still tastes the same. Also, for the reviewer who said it's cane sugar not beet, they probably ordered, or received, the wrong type. The package I got clearly said beet sugar.I was told in Ireland that beet sugar had more nutrients than cane sugar, but I looked that up and it's not true. I don't know how regularly I'll buy this, given it's way more expensive than the organic cane sugar I've been buying from Costco for years. But I'll probably keep some on hand for when i'm feeling fancy, or when I invite friends over for tea (never happened yet, but one can dream.)

I love the beet sugar, I have been ordering it for years. I think it is better for you than the white sugar.I have it in a container, and when the grandchildren come, it is gone pretty quickly. I even get them to put it in their coffee and tea.

As a tea lover, this is my favorite sweetener, it really brings out the flavor in my teas.
