This is a tea I’ve been eyeing for a while, so I hope it’s as good as it sounds. Hmm it’s a little unexpectedly sour. Possibly the pecans are going off already. That would be a shame since this sample is from the advent calendar, so it’s pretty new. It definitely needed some sugar and milk to draw out the flavors. It tastes decent, but not as special as I had hoped. The black tea itself doesn’t have a lot of depth, but the nuttiness is pleasant. Not as good as other nutty teas, though. I also have a one ounce package of it I bought at the same time as the advent calendar. There’s no sourness in that batch, but yeah, it’s still not as special and fun as I wanted it to be, just average.

Bio

I’m an event planner who always has multiple mugs of tea beside me. Hobbies other than tea include board games, video games, cooking international dishes, science fiction, hiking, jigsaw puzzles, tap dancing, reading, listening to podcasts, and playing with my troublesome kitties.

Favorite flavors: dessert flavors, nutty, melon, mint, strawberry, anything rooibos-related.

Don’t prefer: Smoky, rosemary, savory flavors, floral (other than lavender), plain tea.

I always drink flavored tea, and preferably caffeine-free or black. I’ll try just about anything though! Let me know if you’re interested in a swap!

My ratings are kind of meaningless, but basically
90-100 pretty perfect
80-89 really good
70-79 good, but not the best
60-69 okay, but probably not for me
1-59 varying degrees of dislike
